We realize that we live in the 21st century,
an age in which technological innovations have transformed our world. Many inventions
have allowed us to live better but many others, however, are slowly polluting
our body. And in this second group, I want to include non-natural cosmetic.
We list some of the reasons that should
push you to buy natural beauty products:
1.
They are made with only natural ingredients
Skincare manufacturers in the UK use only
eco-sustainable products or products derived from the plant world.
For the most part, these are vegan products
or products that do not alter the natural ecosystem. Even a natural sponge is
collected respecting the marine environment. Just like tree extracts or fruit
oils.
2.
They nourish the skin
All the beauty products you find on the
market have the aim of "beautifying".
There is, however, a substantial difference
that should not be underestimated. Industrial cosmetics, made using silicones,
heavy metals or petroleum derivatives, offer only apparent beauty.
Have you ever used lipstick and have the
feeling of having used an adhesive film on your lips?
Natural ingredients, on the other hand,
delicately penetrate the skin tissue, supporting the skin with detoxifying and
purifying ingredients.
3.
They Are Also Suitable for Those with Sensitive Skin
The absence of toxic substances and the
exclusive presence of ingredients derived from certified organic farming has a further
advantage.
These products, as natural oils and
extracts, are suitable for those with sensitive skin.
For those prone to skin irritation or real
allergic forms, they must not only resort to pharmaceutical products. Organic
beauty products allow you to always have fashionable make-up without damaging your
skin. And if this applies to sensitive people, then it will apply to everyone.
4. They Enjoy Quality
Certifications
The "certifications" are quality
awards created to ensure that a product has certain characteristics.
If you find it indicated that the cosmetic
is guaranteed by BDIH, COSMEBIO, ECOCERT Greenlife, ICEA or SOIL Association
you can rest assured.
All these international organizations have
approved the “Cosmetic Organic Standard”.
To make it easier, you just need to know
that 95% of the ingredients must come from natural products.
5. As Nature Intended!
Massaging your body with olive oil or creating
exfoliating packs with brown sugar and almond flour are the remedies that our
grandmothers used in the past and that, still today, are considered valid by
dermatologists. Why have we strayed so far from nature?
The ingredients have remained the same but
habits have changed.
With certified natural products, however,
you will have, in a single lotion, scrub or cosmetic, the benefits of natural
plant products.
6. They Respect the Environment
Industrial cosmetic products are not only
harmful to our body but the presence of silicones, synthetic ingredients and
petroleum derivatives pollute the environment. In cosmetic industries, fumes
contaminate the air, waste is dispersed in water and the soil.
Organic cosmetics are also environmentally
friendly because they don’t encourage deforestation or the use of pesticides.
By applying a natural or organic eyeshadow
or organic sunscreen you will not only take care of yourself but also of the
planet Earth.
7. It’s a Millennial Fashion
Organic and Natural cosmetics is not a “female
only” product.
Organic cosmetics for men are a growing
sector. Indeed, men have finally understood that their bodies must be treated
with care. Long gone are the days where men applying moisturiser was seen as
emasculating. Today, men make up a huge part of the cosmetics industry, from
face creams, lotions and eyeshadow – Men’s interest in beauty has seen a spike
in recent years. Research in the United States predicts the market will hit
$166 billion by 2022, noting that men’s skincare sales have leapt 7% within the
last year. There now are many private label skin manufacturers creating
wonderful products for men – all natural and all organic.
