Natural skin care products contain the most natural and pure ingredients, consisting of plant-based and non-synthetic ingredients. With more than 300 million skin cells, the body naturally absorbs skin care and makeup products. Thus, the skin should be fed with natural products that contain the nutrients and vitamins to promote health skin. Many people believe that it is important to live a healthy lifestyle and eat healthy food, and it is equally just as important to use healthy skin products. Natural products can reduce the skin’s exposure to harmful chemicals.

Plant-based oilsIt is important to read the labels on all products, including cleansers, moisturizers and makeup. Skin care products that include artificial ingredients and harsh preservatives may contain potentially harmful substances that can cause allergic reactions, excessive dry skin, sun burn, blood clots and more harmful effects. Natural skin products and natural makeup usually include:

• Pure essential oils


• Antioxidants and vitamins


• Botanicals


• Witch hazel


• Citrus


• Sugar cane

Products that contain antioxidants and vitamins, such as vitamins A, C, and E protect aging skin and prevent sun damage. Pure essential oils and plant-based oils, such as lavender, aloe Vera, tea tree and bergamot are beneficial for acne-prone skin and combination skin. Olive, almond and avocado oils are great dry skin remedies. In addition to promoting healthy skin, organic skincare products helps balance the overall skin tone, improves moisture retention, eliminate impurities in the skin and protects the skin cells from the effects of sun rays.

Similar to organic skin cleansers, exfoliating creams, toners and moisturizers, organic cosmetics also stimulate healthy skin cells. Natural cosmetics include vitamins and antioxidants to fight free radicals that cause harmful effects to the skin cells. Recent innovations in natural makeup products are mineral cosmetics, which helps bring about a natural glow to the skin. Mineral makeup is free of artificial colors, and it provides a weightless feeling to the skin. Mineral makeup is becoming more popular as more ingredients in makeup contain essential oils and natural pigments to promote even-toned and healthier looking skin.
