Sunshine Botanicals, a botanical skincare company, has received the mark of excellence in beauty from third party verification service AmericanMadeBeauty.com.

Consumers want products "Made in the USA"… but who really qualifies to make this claim? "Made in the USA" has become a highly sought-after quality and a brand that makes this claim is often assumed to be made with high standards for quality and safety. But, in fact, there are many "Made in the USA" brands that do not meet the standard established by the Food & Drug Administration, Federal Trade Commission, US Department of Commerce and now the state of California Statute.

Sunshine Botanicals follows the strict standards established by all these agencies to ensure that its brand can legitimately make this claim. And now, through AmericanMadeBeauty.com, the only third party verification service specializing in beauty, Sunshine Botanicals has received verification that it has met the Made In America requirements at the Federal level and the State of California.

"We are extremely pleased to accept this seal of approval. We never compromise the quality of our formulation process or ingredients, and as a result have earned the trust of thousands customers and our brand ambassadors over the years.  We look forward to continually developing original, powerful and highly effective 'Made in America' skin care products for many years to come," says Emily Fritchey, Founder and CEO of Sunshine Botanicals.

Validation seals are awarded for products and brands that are born in America, headquartered here, and are physically mixed or made in qualified cosmetic manufacturing facilities that meet Good Manufacturing Practices standards.  It also requires that companies meet FDA and FTC labeling requirements that allow consumers to make informed choices and that 80% or more of the retail value of the product comes from elements sourced in America.
