Natural products are becoming more popular all over the world as people move towards a more natural, holistic way of maintaining health and wellbeing. Naturally derived ingredients have been used for centuries in medicine, and our natural environment is a treasure-trove of powerful ingredients that can benefit your health both internally and externally when used on your skin.
Over the past few years there has been more awareness of the potentially harmful effects of certain skincare ingredients, including parabens, carcinogens and artificial colours and fragrances. Our skin is the largest organ in the human body - and it is also highly absorbent. Whatever you put on your skin is absorbed through your pores, and will then enter your circulatory system. If you are putting harmful things on your skin, they are actually entering your body - so it's no wonder that people are wary of the ingredients in skincare products!
Many people with sensitive skin prefer natural skin care products, and others just feel more comfortable putting something natural on their skin. Others simply realise how powerful natural skincare can be - all you have to do is try it for yourself, and you will see the benefits.
But with so many skincare brands claiming to be natural, how can you tell - and trust - what is truly natural or not?
Natural Products Association™ (NPA) certification means you can trust that every ingredient product is deemed natural, sustainable and safe.
The prestigious and strict NPA Certification is only given after an intensive process to ensure every ingredient in every single product is deemed natural, safe to use, environmentally responsible and sustainable.
You can be sure no synthetic chemical extraction methods, harmful processing aids or preservatives have been used.
Each ingredient is independently examined and checked to ensure only approved natural extraction methods have been used and that no harmful processing aids or preservatives are involved. The ingredient list on all the packaging is studied to make sure that what it says is in the product is actually in the product and that no ingredients with any suspected health concerns have been used.
Some great natural ingredients you can find in natural products include aloe vera, olive oil, honey, witchhazel, rosehip, lavender, chamomile and tea tree. Now that you know a bit more about the benefits of natural skin care, it's a great time to invest in some natural products! Your skin will love you for it.
