The use of natural and organic personal care products is increasing
dramatically... not just in the United States but throughout the
world. People are becoming more knowledgeable and concerned about
the environment and the effect of toxic chemicals on us and the
earth. Properly formulated natural and organic personal care products
are not only good for you but are actually more effective than
their commercially mass-produced chemical laden counterparts.
Safer and Healthier
Why are people consuming more natural and organic foods? Clearly,
the absence of unnecessary chemicals and pesticides in the food
and drinks we ingest make them safer and healthier for us. The
use of natural and organic personal care products is just as, if
not more important than, consuming natural and organic foods. While
the body's digestive system is actually designed to filter out
impurities, the skin, as the body's largest organ, absorbs 60%
of what is put on it, directly into the bloodstream.
In the United States, the FDA has banned only nine personal care
ingredients in the past 67 years, compared with the EU, which has
outlawed 450.
Natural is Effective!
Essential oils, for example, primary ingredients in any natural
or organic personal care product, are the concentrated, odoriferous
derivatives of therapeutic plants produced for their own survival
and protection from disease. These precious oils influence the
plant's growth and reproduction insuring a long and healthy life.
The molecular structure of essential oils is very close to that
of the fluids and oils of our skin, accounting for our skin's natural
affinity to them. They are readily absorbed and penetrate to the
deepest skin layers. Regular use of essential oils in skin care
has been proven effective in helping correct problems such as wrinkles,
excessive oiliness, dryness, blemishes, and tone. Essential oils
have the capacity to promote the elimination of dead cells, regenerate
new ones and to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
Better for the Environment
Organic farming is safer for the environment. It helps to give back
to nature by maintaining and replenishing the soil rather than depleting
it. Organic farming is better for all of us in the long run. The
use of natural ingredients over cheaper synthetic ingredients eliminates
the release of hazardous bi-products released into the environment
during the production of synthetic chemicals in laboratories and
factories around the globe.
