Organic Skin Care products clean, nourish and protect skin with the best that nature provides without harmful toxic chemicals. Skin is the largest organ of the human body. It absorbs 60% of the ingredients used every day. The average number of ingredients absorbed is 126. These products seep through the skin, rinse down the drain and are cause for concern for human health and the impact on the environment.
There are three kinds of personal care products, Organic, Natural and Petrochemicals. The most harmful are the petrochemical. Petrochemical Emollients (mineral oil, petroleum jelly, etc…) used on skin come from the same factory that makes gas for cars. Research has shown that these are cancer producers or contributors and that the chemicals accumulate in the body’s organs. Natural may mean that the oils and butters that used for the base product may be processed as high as 1000 degrees. This high heat has the ability for companies to process the oils quickly but also destroying most of the good properties of the plant. Certified Organic means that the oils and butters are processed at or below 120 degrees retaining the nourishing, hydrating, antibacterial and protecting qualities that nature intended.
You are in the driver’s seat. Reading labels is essential. Having the knowledge to know what the labels say is imperative. Advertising can be so enticing and leave you with shelves of products loaded with chemicals with names like parabens, sodium laureth sulfates, and DEA’s. These chemicals have had numerous studies that demonstrate how adverse they are to the human body and our environment. Choose carefully and knowledgeably and you will have products that do exactly what they are intended.
