Don’t become yet another victim of the multi-billion-dollar beauty industry for whom profit takes precedence over purity of its products.
If a skincare product advertised boldly that it contained chemicals that were harmful for your skin and for the environment, that they tested its efficacy on helpless animals before selling it to you, that it would do more damage than good to your skin in the long term, would you still buy it?
The fact is that most skincare products out there do some or all of the above and shroud their processes and ingredients in a veil of lies. So it’s time to relook at your skincare routine and make the switch to products that are natural, organic and cruelty-free. And in case you’re wondering if natural ingredients can give you the same results, the answer is a definite YES.
Let’s compare the advantages of natural skincare versus harmful synthetic ones:
Natural Skincare Harmful Synthetics
Gentle on skin Harsh on skin
Allergy-free Causes allergic reactions
Rich in anti-oxidants Creates long-term damage
Environmentally friendly Contains toxic chemicals
Not tested on animals May be tested on animals
Now before you rush to fill your shopping cart with natural skincare products, make sure that the product isn’t just claiming to be natural. Look out for sulphates, parabens, silicons, artificial colours and fragrances as well as synthetic chemicals in the ingredient list. When you’re sure it really is natural, organic and free of harmful chemicals, go ahead and click ‘Buy Now’ to your heart’s content.
