	NATRUE European Union · Tier 2 Trusted	Fair for Life Global · Tier 2 Trusted	Luomu (Finland) Finland · Tier 2 Trusted
What it means	An EU-based natural-and-organic cosmetics certification. Three grades: Natural, Natural with Organic portion, and Organic.	Combined organic + fair-trade + social-responsibility certification. Issued by Ecocert (originally developed by IMOswiss). Stricter than baseline Fairtrade on labour conditions; often paired with an organic mark on the same product.	Finland's national organic 'Sun Mark' (Aurinkomerkki). Operated by the Finnish Food Authority. In practice most Finnish organic packaging carries both Luomu and the EU Leaf — they certify to the same baseline.
Scope	Cosmetics	Several categories	Food
Established	2007	2006	1995
Inspection	Annual third-party audit	Annual on-site, Ecocert-administered	Annual on-site by Finnish Food Authority
Residue testing	Risk-based	Risk-based	Required
Guarantees	Restricted ingredient list (no synthetic fragrances, no silicones, no PEGs). Tiered organic content: Natural with Organic portion ≥70% certified organic; Organic ≥95%. Annual third-party verification.	Fair pricing for producers. Compliance with ILO core conventions on labour rights, no forced or child labour. Environmental criteria including organic-or-equivalent farming practices. Annual on-site audit by Ecocert.	EU baseline organic (Finnish supply chains end-to-end). Annual on-site inspection by the Finnish Food Authority.
Does NOT	Mark is trademark-protected.	Doesn't itself mean organic — pair with an organic mark for the full picture.	The Sun Mark is awarded only to fully Finnish supply chains — imports use the EU Leaf alone.
