Benefits of Using Herbal & Organic Beauty Products #SuperBloggerChallenge2018

Being a  Beauty  Blogger  I am being asked many times about the benefits of using Organic & Natural Beauty Products which includes  Skin Care & Make Up both.
People do ask me Why to buy such expensive organic skin care products , what's wrong with the ones we are using since ages ?
I have explained this to many about the ill effects of  harmful chemicals in these products and why choosing a herbal or organic one is better in long run .
Today in this post I will try to cover few important points on this topic.

Research says Women on an average  put  168 + chemicals on their bodies every day , it's through skin care  products , hair care products  , cosmetics , Perfumes , Mists etc .

First we should know about the chemicals frequently found in beauty products .

* PARABENS 

They are used as preservatives in most of the beauty products .

Can cause hormonal imbalance , early puberty and other health problems .

*PTHALATES 

Mostly found in shampoos .

Can cause problem in Kidney & Liver .

* SLS & SLES 

They are surfactant .

These are found in Shampoos , Car wash etc .

Can cause Skin allergy , depression .

* SYNTHETIC COLORS 

Can cause Skin irritation or Allergy .

*SUNSCREEN CHEMICALS 

They are found in sunscreen creams & lotions .

Common names of these chemicals are  Avabenzone , Benzophenone , PABA etc .

These chemicals are easily absorbed by the body and are endocrine disruptors .

*TOLUENE 

It is a Petrochemical derived  from  Petroleum or  Coal  Tar sources .

They can affect respiratory system and cause skin allergy .

So now one can understand what we have been using since childhood and how harmful it was to us and how harmful it is if we continue to use it  .

Now we have the option to switch over to better products which are chemical  free and toxin free .

Yes I am talking  about Organic , Herbal  & Natural  Products .

Past few years  we have seen a boom in this  industry , specially on  online media as more & more people are becoming aware of  the  situation .

Though  bit expensive these natural brands are much better than the regular  ones  which are loaded with harmful chemicals and toxins .

TOP  BENEFITS  OF USING  HERBAL/ORGANIC/NATURAL  PRODUCTS 

1. They are better for your skin & health .

Products from these herbal & organic brands have less or no chemicals in it .

They use natural ingredients and many of them are  fragrance free , color free ,  preservative-free .

So they are safer .

Many of them have less shelf  life like that of 6-8 months only and some of them are needed to be kept in refrigerator as they are preservative free .

I have used many such products and found them too good & effective .

2.  Free of Harsh Chemicals 

As discussed above these products are free of harmful chemicals .

3. Eco Friendly 

These products are eco friendly as they have minimal or no chemicals.

4. They are Gentle on Skin 

Since they contain natural ingredients , they are gentle on skin .

Like moisturizers from these natural brands have Cocoa Butter , Shea Butter in it which are too good for skin .

5. Protect  the Skin from Premature Ageing 

These organic skin care & beauty products have good amount of anti oxidants , Vitamins in it thus they help to protect the skin from premature ageing .
