I myself is a fan of natural products, not because I am a student of Science but because, I love what the Earth can give us. These are the by-products of the creation of our Holy Creator, and therefore must be utilize properly.
There is no doubt that there are uncertainties regarding synthetic cosmetic products such as lotions, creams, body scrubs etc. Because basically, they are made up of chemicals that consumers have a little knowledge about. Well, you've just come into the right place. I will list down my top 10 reasons why you should go natural all the way with cosmetics and other products.
Top 10: Natural Cosmetic products are easy to make!
It will only take you for about 2-15mins. Depending on what kind of product you are making.
Top 9: You can help recycle plastic containers when making your own
Yes, you don't need fancy and expensive kinds of container. Even a resealable plastic bag can be a good container for your product. As a rule of thumb, always make sure that the product you made is sealed and if it is made from edible products or dairy products, you should keep them inside the refrigerator for preservation purposes. Fungus and molds can easily develop on these kinds of products.
Top 8: You know what's inside!
Because natural products are made from common raw materials such as cereals and coconut oils. You are sure that these products are edible and can therefore be applied to your skin. Another rule of thumb! When a product can be eaten, more or less, you can use it topically.
Top 7: Reduce risk of health problems
Synthetic cosmetics or commonly known as conventional cosmetics have chemicals that may harm people. Some of which contains allergens, and can even initiate one's allergy. Some of the household detergents contain SLS, SLES and parabens which are known to be allergens and are suspected to increase risk on cancer. With natural products, you know that these are safe and are healthy to your skin.
Top 6: Synthetic cosmetics and chemically made household products contain petroleum.
Products that contains petroleum can moisturize, and protect skin from from external elements. It normally acts as a water and humidity repellent to avoid dryness of the skin. But, there's a pitfall for this product, it does not actually moisturize but gives your skin a glossy coating that clog pores of your skin that can cause acne and dryness. How ironic right? In addition, cosmetic products that contain petroleum can cause cancer. when impurities are found.
Top 5: Save money!
You don't need lot's of money to buy Natural cosmetics and natural household products. Yes, you've read it right. Because they are natural, they must be cheap and can be acquired easily. But let us admit it, there is a market for these things and the demand is increasing every year. Thus, resulting to a higher price more than expected. They may be pricey but I am sure they are cheaper than commercially available products.
Top 4: Save time!
Because you made them, you don't have to go out and buy what you need. Plus, you can make them in bulk! If you want, you can even have a milk bath in a bathtub!
Top 3: Natural cosmetics and products are effective!
They are effective just like the commercially available ones. More or less, the developers of commercially available products derived its benefits from natural products.
Top 2: Best friend of sensitive skins!
My aunt have skin asthma, her skin dries up easily and her doctor advised her not to use regular soap. With the pursuit of helping my aunt, I decided to give her my formulated natural soap. Since then, her skin does not dries up easily and itching has lessened. It was a total relief for her and for me too. And yes, I got some pennies for the next orders. teehee. :)
Top 1: Contribute to our nature!
It is time to give back the love the nature has given us. Let us thank her for what she have done. Utilize her fruits for all she wanted was to give us everything we need. Production of natural products do not have harmful wastes that can deteriorate nature.
