Most of us on average apply 10 different beauty products to our skin every day. And yet we often undervalue the importance of finding out the ingredients present in these products. This is mainly due to the fact that most of us are not aware that skin is the largest organ of our body, and that 60% of whatever we apply on our skin gets absorbed into our body – creating a lasting impact.

However, with rising awareness amongst health enthusiasts worldwide, more and more people are switching to organic and natural skincare products, owing to the remarkable benefits natural skin products offer.

So, we thought it’s worth discovering the long-term benefits of using 100% natural skin products, and took a deep dive into the world of natural skincare, discovering some amazing results for you. Let’s begin, shall we?

Zero Side-effects

The skin is the most sensitive organ of our body and also the most vital one. The first step towards skin wellness begins with protecting our skin from external factors and not harming it due to our own negligence.

We as a species have co-evolved with nature and hence natural ingredients easily get absorbed in our skin, while ingredients made of complex chemical substances found in most skincare products are not easily accepted by the body. Due to this, our skin reacts negatively and causes rashes, redness, acne, and irritation amongst several other disorders.

Skincare products made of pure and natural ingredients create miraculous effects when applied in a long term, with no stress of developing any harmful side effects or allergies.

Radiant and Glowy Skin

Nature is filled with innumerable gifts for mankind. And skincare products made with ingredients sourced directly from nature help us achieve the perfect skin that we all wish for. This becomes possible because these ingredients meet the same criteria as that of organic food. So, no synthetic formulas, no complex chemicals, and no artificial fragrance.

Instead, natural skincare products are made with effective natural ingredients such as aloe vera, hydrogenated castor oil (castor wax), pharmaceutical grade castor oil, coconut oil, turmeric, sandalwood, rose water, etc. These ingredients, when included in our daily skincare routine, end up eliminating all skin woes, giving us radiant, glowy, and healthy skin.

Prevents Premature Skin Ageing

Ageing is a natural process and so is skin degeneration as we grow older. However, premature ageing of the skin is an alarming sign reflective of severe underlying disorders. Hence, prevention of premature skin ageing is a necessary and important step one should take as soon as possible.

Though there are several products available in the market to fight anti-ageing of the skin, and some of them do also work, they bring with them a number of harmful and toxic chemicals. Natural skincare products, on the other hand, work more harmonically with our bodies and alleviate premature ageing without exposing our skin to potentially problematic substances.

Jojoba Oil and Quinoa face-pack, amongst many other options, have been found to be very effective to prevent premature ageing of the skin.

Improves Overall Health & Well-being

We don’t think twice before trying out the new, ‘cooler’ skin care product which everyone can’t stop raving about. However, if we just turn the product pack to its back side, read out the ingredients and look up their properties online, we’re most likely to get the shock of our lifetime.

Most beauty and skin products contain chemicals such as sodium lauryl sulphate, phthalates and parabens. These chemicals have the potential to damage our core health by adversely affecting our reproductive, endocrine and immune system.

Using natural skin care products does not hamper our core health and in fact improves the functioning of our body, as the body recognizes natural ingredients as nutrition. Natural ingredients also improve moisture retention, encourage cell regeneration, and don’t affect the immune system negatively.

Truly Sustainable

The ingredients found in natural skin products are extracted directly from nature. Hence, when it comes to the disposal of skin products, natural skin products are easily biodegradable. These products also produce less waste, thus easing out the disposal process. Moreover, natural skin products are not tested on animals before being rolled out for us to use, so they are cruelty-free.

By opting for natural skin care products, we get a chance to repair and heal the environment through our conscious actions, in addition to healing our skin and body.

In a Nutshell

With benefits as profound as canvassed above, making the switch to natural skin care products seems ideal – both for us Humans and for the Environment. And while initially it may feel like an expensive switch to make moneywise, the long term and ever-lasting benefits of using natural skin products eventually make it a much more economically wiser option.
