More and more people are waking up and realising the benefits of organic products. Organic alternatives are becoming more common on food menus and even in household cleaning items and people are gradually seeing the benefits of organic cosmetics and beauty products too. The interest in and demand for organic skin care products is growing as people recognise that their skin needs protecting from many of the chemicals they find in traditional cosmetics and beauty products. Products such as organic face wash and organic shampoos are becoming hugely popular universally because people recognise the eco-friendly nature of the products but also the benefits for the long-term quality and health of the skin, when compared with the chemical-rich alternatives.
Organic skin care products have to be natural, they are required to prove their natural ingredients to be able to describe themselves as organic and therefore, you can’t be duped into picking up what you think is an organic product and find it is something else as to use the word means the product has been fairly tested and proven to be 100% natural. Whilst there are stricter rules in the food and drinks industry with regard to the chemicals which can be used in the production of their products it is very different in health and beauty. There is no law against the use of a wide range of dangerous chemicals from parabens to carcinogens so it is down to the individual consumer to recognise the benefits of making the switch. Opting for organic skincare products means you’ve made the most sensible decision for the protection of your skin and you can feel safe in the knowledge that you are avoiding a whole host of potentially harmful chemicals.
Many recognisably harmful ingredients can be found in artificially produced skin care products, including things such as Mercury, Dioxane, Nitrosamines, DEA, Cyclomethicone, Ammonium LaurethSulfate, Alcohol, Isopropyl (SD-40), Polyethylene Glycol and more. These are all chemical compounds which can be toxic in higher levels and whilst they have obviously been tested for cosmetic use, it’s more beneficial for your skin and body to avoid them altogether.
All conventional skin and hair care products are popular because of their convenience, price and often due to advertising campaigns but the organic alternative is an area anyone who is interested in their health should explore.
