How do I know if organic makeup and skin care or synthetic is better for my skin?
With the number of beauty products available on the market growing at a dizzying pace, it’s important to make sure that you’re buying the best makeup for your skin type and lifestyle
For most women, makeup is an essential part of their beauty routine. We know that makeup can instantly change the way a woman looks and feels. As a woman, you will have already seen many brands of makeup products out there in the market, but choosing the right one can be a challenge. The makeup should be of the best quality to ensure that you get good results. With so many makeup products to choose from, it might seem like a daunting task to find the right one for you. Here are some things that you could consider when looking for makeup.
Here is a list of the most important aspects to consider when buying makeup.
The History of Makeup
At its core, makeup is a way to cover up imperfections. Makeup originated back in early civilisations because they didn’t have the technology to achieve flawless, natural beauty. Before the 1900s, women wore make-up in a variety of ways to cover their faces and bodies. They used rouge, powder, lipsticks, and even a little bit of blood on their cheeks to make themselves feel prettier.
Organic vs. Synthetic
Synthetic and natural organic makeup are two different categories when it comes to makeup and skincare. Synthetic ingredients are more cost effective to produce. Both categories have their place in the makeup market. Synthetics are the more common of the two, but that doesn’t mean natural and organic makeup is any less effective, however of late this attitude is changing as people understand more about what is in the products they place on their skin.
It’s important to note that most of the personal care products sold are synthetically produced.
Synthetic
Many cosmetics and skincare products contain parabens (a preservative that can have estrogenic properties) derived from petrochemicals. The problem with petrochemicals is that they are synthetically produced without care for the environment. They pollute the water supply and can produce cancerous byproducts, and they can enter our food supply.
Synthetics are man made and chemically engineered to mimic natural ingredients, they can contain dangerous chemicals that can cause irritation, dryness and even cancer.
Natural
Natural products are a better option because they contain fewer or no additives, preservatives, artificial colouring and flavouring, and other chemicals. They're also better for the environment and for the animals that provide the ingredients. That's how there's so much competition in the cosmetics and beauty industry: natural and organic ingredients are better than synthetics for the same reasons that natural food products are better than synthetic ones.
The word "natural", or "organic" in cosmetics and personal care products is often used loosely and the term has no real regulation. "Natural" and even organic can include some synthetic chemicals (like preservatives, dyes, or fragrances) that aren’t required to be disclosed in the ingredient list, which can be harmful. Organic can refer to one or two ingredients which form a small percentage of the whole product.
Natural and Organic makeup companies build their credibility by presenting scientific evidence that the ingredients they use in their products are effective, safe, and the products actually do what they claim.
