USVA Cosmetics – natural ingredients
We believe that the quality of a product's ingredients is the most important foundation for successful skincare. That's why we only use pure, truly natural ingredients that the skin naturally recognizes and absorbs. Each skin-friendly ingredient is carefully selected, and each has its own purpose and role in the formula.
The debate about unnecessary chemicals and environmentally harmful ingredients is increasingly turning attention to pure and natural cosmetics. We do not add preservatives, artificial colors or fragrances, additives or any synthetic ingredients to our products. All ingredients used are vegan and the entire production process meets the requirements of certified natural cosmetics.
Our ingredients come from nature: plants, berries, herbs and flowers. Natural ingredients are better absorbed, biodegradable and provide the skin with nutrients that support and enhance – not replace – the skin’s own natural moisturizing processes.

Shea butter
Shea butter is high in triterpene alcohols, which promote skin elasticity and help prevent the loss of collagen and elastin. This makes it an ideal ingredient for dry, damaged and mature skin. Shea butter also contains several active antioxidants, such as vitamins A, E and F, and forms a protective layer on the skin that locks in moisture.
Shea tree harvesting is traditionally a women's job, and butter production is an important source of livelihood for local communities. The nuts used grow wild, and their collection does not harm the trees, making the production process ecologically sustainable.
INCI: Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

Macadamia nut oil
Macadamia oil is rich in vitamins, unsaturated fatty acids, lecithin and squalene. However, its real benefit is its unique plant-derived palmitoleic acid content (omega-7 fatty acid), which is naturally present in the skin but decreases with age.
Its fatty acid composition is similar to the skin's own sebum, which is why it is extremely skin-friendly: it helps prevent the top layer of the skin from drying out, restores elasticity, and makes the skin soft and silky.
Macadamia oil rejuvenates, nourishes and soothes the skin, making it a perfect choice for caring for sensitive, dry and mature skin, as well as for treating stretch marks.

Castor wax beads
Castor beads are small, round wax beads made from oil pressed from the seeds of the castor plant. In our scrubs, these beads gently remove dead skin cells and impurities, leaving the skin smoother and more even. Castor beads are a biodegradable, 100% renewable, natural alternative to the cheap but environmentally damaging microplastic beads often used in cosmetics. Unlike pumice, quartz sand or crushed walnut shells, castor beads do not contain sharp edges, so they do not cause micro-injuries to the skin.
INCI: Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Squalane
Squalane is a lipid derived from olive oil. This gentle oil does not irritate the skin, supports the function of the skin's protective layer and makes the skin soft. Squalane is a close relative of squalene, which is naturally found in human skin. Squalane is an important component of the skin's hydrolipidic layer, but its production gradually decreases after the age of 25. Due to its skin-related properties, squalane is easily absorbed, helps other active ingredients penetrate the skin, and leaves a pleasant, velvety feeling.
INCI: Squalane

MCT oil (from coconut)
MCT oil, which may sound unusual at first, is made from the fruit oil of the coconut. This “concentrated coconut oil” consists exclusively of medium-chain fatty acids. In skin care products, it improves the absorption of ingredients, provides easy spreadability, softens and protects the skin from drying out. MCT oil is also often used to increase the energy content of foods or drinks, such as coffee or tea.
INCI: Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Sucrose laurate
Sucrose laurate is a gentle, emollient emulsifier that acts as an excellent natural ingredient binder. It is made from plant-based sugar and fatty acid esters of coconut oil. This combination helps to gently remove impurities without damaging the skin's hydrolipidic film or clogging pores. The emulsifier binds the ingredients of cleansing oils and changes the texture of the oil, making it more pleasant and easier to use. The lauric acids it contains soothe the skin, and their antimicrobial properties help prevent inflammation, leaving the skin feeling exceptionally soft and cared for.
INCI: Sucrose Laurate

Sunflower seed oil, vitamin E
Sunflower seed oil is a natural source of vitamin E and a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals. It also improves microcirculation and connective tissue firmness, thus supporting the skin's ability to retain moisture.
Vitamin E among the ingredients prevents oils from going rancid, so balms do not need additional synthetic preservatives.
INCI: Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil, Tocopherol

Glycerol
Glycerin is a sugar alcohol, the best known and most commonly used humectant in skin care. It is a powerful moisture-binding agent that protects the skin while supporting the renewal of its natural barrier functions and improving skin elasticity. It can come from plant or animal sources, depending on which oil or fat it is extracted from. The glycerin we use is 100% natural and plant-based.
INCI: Glycerin

Dicaprylyl carbonate
Dicaprylyl carbonate is a plant-based skin care ingredient. It enhances the effects of other oils and creams, leaving the skin smooth and soft without leaving a greasy feel. Its presence allows other carefully selected ingredients to spread and absorb more effectively. Dicaprylyl carbonate can be derived from coconut, for example, similar to MCT oil, but with a different extraction method.
INCI: Dicaprylyl Carbonate

Sucrose stearate
Sucrose stearate is a natural skin care ingredient and emulsifier, similar to sucrose laurate. It is made from vegetable sugar and fatty acid esters of coconut oil. It acts as a thickener in cleansing oils and gently enhances the effects of other ingredients in skin care.
