Myth to Muthi to Monograph

We have partnered in a synergistic venture with a local company, Parceval. Offering indigenous botanicals, Parceval supplies exclusively to the herbal and homoeopathic industries. Through their partnership with Incosmetics, these efficacious indigenous extracts are now offered to the cosmetic industry.

It is our belief that with published literature and clinical trials, indigenous plants can now be supportively incorporated into high quality, efficacious cosmetic products.

Incosmetics together with Parceval, believe we can provide this much needed point of difference. We are able to offer a range of 12 indigenous plants together with formal supportive documentation for each. Plants within our preliminary range include Adansonia digitata (baobab), Agathosma betulina (buchu), Aloe ferox (Cape aloe), Aspalathus linearis (rooibos), Carpobrotus edulis (sour fig), Cyclopia intermedia (honeybush), Harpagophytum procumbens (devils claw), Hoodia gordonii (ghaap), Kigelia africana (sausage tree), Siphonochilus aethiopicus (African ginger), Sutherlandia frutescens (cancerbush) and Withania somnifera (winter cherry).

In complying and respecting these remarkable plants Parceval conforms to the Bioprospecting Permit under NEMBA (National Environmental Management Biodiversity Act 2004). Access and Benefit Sharing Agreements (ABSA) with local communities are in place as well as many community projects.
