Why Organic Products Are Important

Updated: Jul 24, 2020

The synthetic ingredients found in non-organic products may be fast-acting, but they are also invasive, causing harm that cannot be seen.

Benefits of using organic skin care products: 


If you’re still using non-organic products, it’s time to reconsider. Read on to learn the benefits of organic skincare products to see how they can be better for you.


1. Non-organic skin care products contain harmful ingredients:


Pick up a bottle of any non-organic skincare product and read its ingredients label. How many ingredients can you actually recognize?

Non-organic skin care products contain synthetic, man-made chemicals such as sodium laurel, mineral oils, Laureth sulfate, and toxins that could be residues of pesticides. Studies have also found that they can contain mineral oil, petroleum, parabens, and other chemicals that, with long term use, can cause skin irritation, hormone imbalance, organ toxicity, and even cancer. 


2. Organic skincare products are made of natural ingredients:


Now read the ingredients label of any organic skin care product. You’d probably recognize most, if not all of the items there.


Certified organic products are derived from plants and other naturally occurring ingredients. More importantly, those organic ingredients are grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides, synthetic fertilizers, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and other additives or chemicals. With that, you can be sure your skin and body absorb only real, natural ingredients that aren’t harmful.


3. Organic products are non-allergenic:


Without harsh chemicals, organic skincare products are less likely to cause allergic reactions, inflammations or irritations. If an allergic reaction does occur with the use of organic products, it would most likely be due to a natural ingredient (such as peanuts or strawberries), which would be easier to identify.


4. Organic skincare products work better:


Plants grown organically are found to contain a higher level of vital antioxidant vitamins than non-organic plants. Because they are grown without herbicides and pesticides, their organic ingredients are also free from that contamination, which means the same for your skin and body.


Moreover, up to 95% of an organic skincare product’s contents are active ingredients. In synthetic skincare products, on the other hand, active ingredients only make up 5 to 10% of its contents.


5. Going organic is better for your skin:


The synthetic ingredients found in non-organic products may be fast-acting, but they are also invasive, causing harm that cannot be seen. Their chemical ingredients may provide instant gratification and visible results, but most of this only helps you aesthetically by smoothening out wrinkles, removing sunspots, and diminishing blemishes. 

With prolonged use, these chemicals may damage and weaken your skin as your body tries to cope with these foreign substances. As a result, oxygen exchange to the skin is reduced, causing premature aging and increased risk of developing sunspots.
