Natural skin care products are known for their smooth, glowing and nourishing effects to our skin. While inorganic skin products, on the other hand, can do more harm than good after long-term usage.
They contain chemicals like parabens, phthalates, petroleum waxes, and formaldehyde among others which are harmful to our skin and to our entire body system.
For example, parabens used as a preservative is said to be cancerous.
To avoid dangers associated with inorganic skin products, using natural skin care products is a safe choice.
So how are organic skin care products good for your skin? Let explore some benefits below.
They Are Gentle To Sensitive Skins
Since organic skin care products are made from natural herbal ingredients, they are very gentle to the skin – even to the sensitive and dry skins.
They don’t cause redness, dryness or irritation the way chemical skin products do.
They can be used on any type of skin.
They also soften the skin unlike most chemical products which are said to have drying agents like sulfate. [1]
They Slow Aging Process
Most natural skin products are made using ingredients with antioxidant effects.
The antioxidants fight free radicals responsible for premature wrinkles and aging process.
Example of antioxidant ingredients can be found in coconut oil, olive and cod liver oils, turmeric, honey, avocadoes, aloe vera among others.
So if you see a product with a label of these ingredients go for it. [2]
They Don’t Cause Any Side Effects
As earlier discussed, chemical skin care products can harm our skin and our entire body system.
Once they are applied on the skin, they are slowly absorbed in the body system.
After a while, the side effects will start manifesting.
Example of the side effects is the appearance of acne, itching, and even cancerous conditions.
On the other hand, the organic products don’t have side effects unless someone is allergic to the natural ingredients used in making them. [3]
They Are Friendly and Harmless To the Environment
Organic skin care products are made using natural herbal ingredients.
These ingredients are grown organically without the use of pesticides or fertilizers.
So they don’t pollute the air or contaminate the soil – they cause no environmental damage. [4]
They Are Locally Available and Affordable
Natural skin products are locally available and affordable.
You can even make your own homemade remedies using readily available herbal ingredients and by following some proven formulas
Bottom Line
Don’t be carried by the trend and be attracted to the decorated hyped chemical products.
They advertised everywhere but their benefits are often exaggerated to make them seem safer.
Instead, go for organic skin care products.
They will not only care and soften your skin but will also slow the aging process.
They are friendly and harmless to your skin and to the environment too.
They cause no side effects like the ones associated with chemical products – such as acne, itching, irritation and in the worst scenario, cancerous effects.
The best part is, you get to save your hard earned money as you enjoy these benefits. [6]
