Discover the importance of using natural cosmetic products . You will understand that it is an essential daily action to take care of your health and the environment. “Don’t put anything on your skin that you can’t eat.”
Natural cosmetics or chemical products?
The skin is the body's largest organ. Through it we absorb a very high percentage of everything we put on it. This is the main reason for the need to use natural cosmetic products instead of chemical products .
You might think that certain chemicals make the product more effective. This is not necessarily fair! However, they increase the risk of developing skin allergies as well as side effects. The chemicals used are often harsh on the skin.
Worse still, studies prove that regular use of cumulative chemicals in cosmetics can cause serious illnesses like cancer or infertility.
It is important to know that, unlike cosmetics based on chemicals, our skin better absorbs products composed of natural elements, such as:
- Essential oils
- Vegetal oils
- Plant extracts
- Minerals
- Butters
- Natural dyes and pigments.
This is because their composition is similar to that of our body. They guarantee excellent absorption with almost zero risk of harmful reactions.
These present ingredients are known to nourish as well as treat the skin in a natural way. Most natural products are rich in antioxidants. They have demonstrated their effectiveness in helping the body slow down the aging process. As a result, the skin appears younger and more radiant.
Using natural cosmetic products for health is therefore a point not to be neglected!
Although they take longer to demonstrate their effectiveness , natural cosmetic products undoubtedly work once you adopt them. It takes time to clean away the buildup of chemicals on our bodies from years on end.
The same goes for hair. When you switch to shampoos, treatment oils, natural masks for your hair, you will observe a so-called “transition” period during which you will have the impression that your hair is in poor condition.
In reality you will find your hair as it really is. Chemical products work on the surface, but do not heal in depth.
Over time, you will find healthy hair, free of superficial layers and capable of absorbing the benefits of natural vegetable and essential oils contained in natural hair products such as our Glow Up repairing oil .
Another positive point; Long-term use of natural products guarantees healthier, stronger and more beautiful hair.
Environmental impact
Using natural cosmetic products to protect the planet is also important. Several petroleum-based ingredients (yes petroleum!) commonly used in conventional cosmetics are exploited.
Cosmetic products based on chemical substances have a potentially very harmful impact on the environment .
The same goes for the manufacturing process used to create them. Unfortunately, not only does this pose a threat to your health but also for the fauna and flora. One doesn't go without the other anyway. Indeed, the natural and organic ingredients are mainly taken from the cultivation of plants and flowers.
