Willemijn and Liselotte from BeBio.nl tell us about the benefits of natural skin care.
This is a guest blog by Willemijn and Liselotte from BeBio.nl.
We are busy eating as pure and healthy as possible, while many toxins and other harmful substances can also end up in our body through our skin. The skin is our largest organ. It is important to take good care of your skin and to nourish your skin with natural ingredients.
The benefits of natural skin care
• With allergies or skin sensitivities, many people benefit from natural facial care.
• The natural ingredients are better absorbed by the skin.
• A large part of the producers of natural skin care produces under environmentally friendly conditions.
• Many natural substances also have a natural antioxidant effect because they have to protect themselves against oxidation by the sun.
• Natural skin care contains no animal ingredients
Not everything is natural!
When a small part of the ingredients are natural, a product is already called natural. So it is useful if you have a little knowledge of how to read the ingredients list. Or get advice in a store where the employees have knowledge of the business. Does a product have an extremely long list of ingredients, many of which are difficult to pronounce? There is a good chance that the product is not natural. If you are looking for natural skin care, it is better to leave this product alone.
Here are a few synthetic ingredients to help you on your way, but there are many more that you should avoid if you opt for all-natural products:Plasticizers such as parabens, EDTA, PEGs, silicones, sulfates, TEA, DEA, BHT and mineral oil. If you are sensitive to them, these substances can increase the risk of allergic reactions and irritations.
BeBio's favorites
In recent years we have already tested many products in the field of natural skin care, so if you are in doubt about a product or want tips, you can always ask us. We recently brought our favorite skin care brand to the Netherlands, which is CÎME with ingredients from the Himalayas such as sea buckthorn berries and apricot kernels. That does sound delicious! Are you, like many others, looking for a good natural deodorant, then we also have our DeoRock that also helps against mosquito bites and skin problems such as sun allergy or acne.
