How To Find A Truly Natural Moisturiser & Ingredients To Avoid
Introduction
If given the option, what would you prefer to drink: freshly squeezed orange juice or the packed ones we get in the supermarket? The majority of us would have answered with fresh orange juice squeezed before our eyes. This is because we know that fresh juice, even if served half a glass, would prove to be more healthy and nutritious than a packed one. We know, the ones readily available have preservatives or artificial colours and flavours as well. We are well aware of its harm and hence would never consciously take the decision of choosing this over one that is more natural. So, the foods that we take in reflect our well-being. Similarly, the food we feed our skin reflects the health of our skin.
Not to forget, the more natural it is, the greater benefits it comes with.
Why Natural?
“Natural” has become the buzzword. Everybody wants to go for food, products or anything that has a Natural tag on it. But surely for obvious reasons. Anything that is natural is more eco-friendly and skin-friendly too. When we consume organic food we know we will get fit and healthier. In the same way, when we incorporate natural skincare into our routine, we know it is going to give radiant and youthful skin without causing any harm to the skin which chemical-based skincare products do. Man is the closest to nature. Hence, anything that is closer to nature is also closer to man. With awareness comes wiser decisions. This has made us opt for skincare products that have been curated with the most natural of all ingredients, preferably vegan and cruelty-free at the same time. We don’t want to harm animals in the process of indulging in effective self-care. We now tend to care more for our environment and the organisms that surround us. So, imbibing a routine that is more natural will definitely make your skin healthier and happier.
Benefits of a Natural Moisturiser
When it comes to skincare, one of the most vital steps is proper and right moisturisation. Be it any type of skin, oily, dry, combination or sensitive, one cannot miss on generously applying a moisturiser. Speaking of skin-friendly goods, natural moisturisers are fast entering skin care regimens and makeup kits. People are beginning to enjoy them more these days because they are free of artificial additives and chemicals.
Natural moisturisers are kinder and may not harm your skin. Not all organic ingredients, though, are safe for your skin. For instance, people who have nut allergies should steer clear of moisturisers containing oil extracts from almonds, argan, and other nuts. However, your skin can still benefit from a number of naturally hydrating ingredients. Safflower oil, honey, turmeric, white tea, oats, coconut oil, soy, liquorice, and olive oil are a few examples of natural substances that work well as humectants. For intense skin nourishment, they seal in moisture. They are also antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, which guarantees that your skin is free from rashes.
How to find a Truly Natural Moisturiser
A good moisturiser should be at the centre of any comprehensive skincare regimen. A barrier between you and the outside world, your skin shields you from the elements and potential illnesses. Ideal hydration also delays the appearance of premature wrinkles, evens out skin tone, and avoids bothersome skin conditions like inflammation and cracking that can leave your skin vulnerable.
So, let’s find out.
- Read the ingredients: The first thing you should be doing is reading the ingredients and making sure that no chemicals have been labelled.
- Natural: Make sure that it has a tag on “natural” written on it. This will help you find out what’s inside.
- Sustainable: We have to make it a point to save the resources for our future generations too. Choosing a product that is sustainable can go a long way in optimising the use of our nature.
- Eco-friendly: While you look for products that are safer for the skin go for beauty goods that are safe for the environment too.
- Cruelty-free: Search for the Bunny logo to make sure a company has not been testing its products on animals.
- Vegan: A certified vegan label ensures that a product is free of any animal components or byproducts, does not use any animal ingredients or byproducts during production and is not subjected to animal testing.
