Global leading brand of sustainable period products introduces plastic-free, certified organic cleansing makeup wipes to Natural Grocers' shelves CHICAGO , March 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Natracare , a women built and led, environmentally conscious company and maker of the first organic, plant-based and certified compostable brand of period products, is pleased to announce that their COSMOS Organic Cleansing Makeup Removal Wipes are now available at all 169 Natural Grocers ® locations in 21 states across the country. Conventional cleansing wipes may remove makeup, but they may also be made from plastics, a concern for waste as such wipes break down into microplastics which can be harmful to human health and disrupt ecosystems . They may also contain a combination of chemicals of concern, such as formaldehyde-releasing chemicals, foaming ingredients, parabens and synthetic fragrances, which are well understood to trigger skin irritation .
"Providing our customers with EWG-verified, skin-safe and environmentally positive products is incredibly important to us. Made of GOTS 100% certified organic cotton cloth, Natracare COSMOS Organic certified Cleansing Makeup Removal Wipes are especially gentle for those with sensitive skin because they exclude chemicals of concern, and we've enriched them with vitamin E and soothing aloe vera. We are so excited to finally share this product with Natural Grocers consumers," said Susie Hewson , founder of Natracare.
