Our take

Patyka was among the first brands Ecocert certified, back in 2002, and the serum is genuinely concentrated — but it sits at a founder-brand price, not a mass one.

Evidence score

4/4

Well evidenced

How much of this product's ethics we can actually prove — not how ethical it is. Each point is a yes-or-no check you can verify.

  • This product is certifiedIt holds at least one certification issued by an independent body — not by its maker.
  • Covers more than one dimensionIts certifications span at least two of nature, people and animals — not strong on one axis while silent on the rest.
  • Composition publishedWe hold the full ingredient or materials list, per component where it matters, read from the maker's own listing.
  • Composition mostly checkedAt least half of what it's made of has been matched against our sourced reference table.

Evidence at a glance

Three dimensions, weighted equally

2 of 3 independently certified

Certified means a third-party label backs it, with a source you can check. Stated means someone says so without one. Not found means we found nothing — not that the product fails.

About Patyka

Parisian organic skincare — among the first brands Ecocert certified, back in 2002.

Company-level certification

Held by the company, not by this product. The same maker can ship a certified line and an uncertified one, so this is context — it does not count towards the score above.
