D’Alchémy: a natural skin care brand inspired by medieval chemists

Alchemists, explains Anna Mamczur, CEO of D’Alchémy Holistic Skincare, were the first chemists; they invented cosmetics and we get the word laboratory from alchemists as well. “They believe that the whole universe is very important, and that people can use nature but never destroy nature….This philosophy,” ​she says, “gives us a lot of power [from which] to create the brand”​

D’Alchémy, Mamczur tells Cosmetics Design, is all about natural, organic skin care based on plant hydrosols. And she shares further insight into the brand’s formulation strategy, including details on the ECOCERT and COSMOS certified preservatives D’Alchémy uses—preservatives, that Mamczur points out, are used “in the food industry, in cheese, yogurt, everywhere. So we believe it’s best for the skin to use this kind of preservatives.”​
