Learn about the natural skincare ingredients we use at Pureganics, because what we use on our skin matters
Parabens, phthalates, bisphenol A, nitrosamines, cyclosiloxanes, glycol ethers…aka chemicals that are known carcinogens and are not suitable for the skin, not to mention overall good health. Synthetics are widely used in the cosmetics industry because they are the cheapest to manufacture and to that end, are lowest on the quality spectrum. We can hardly pronounce the above ingredients, so why would we ever consider putting them on our precious skin?
Thankfully, there are some glorious natural alternatives because mother nature intended us to have radiant, healthy skin. People are suffering with more skin irritations than ever before and on the shelf are hundreds of potions with ingredient lists as long as your arm promising to keep us looking young.
Natural ingredients can do this simply, without toxins and cheap, high-tech chemicals. Our skin is our largest organ, so taking care of it means staying away from potentially harmful chemically laden ingredients. Your skin will absorb whatever it comes into contact with so by using organic plant based products you’ll avoid putting harmful ingredients on and in your body.
Essential oils may be classified broadly into two kinds, organic and non-organic. Organic essential oils are derived from plants grown without pesticides or other artificial additives. Many practitioners believe that organic oils are markedly superior in several ways, their quality, scent, and benefits. One of the most important reasons to use organic products is to protect our bees and other insects!
Organic oils may be more expensive than non-organic alternatives, since only a small amount of essential oil can be produced from a relatively large quantity of plant matter. However, the benefits of organic essential oils are worth the price in many cases, this is also true of other organic products, which may be purer, more potent, and generally healthier than non-organic.
Going organic means ensuring your products are free of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. Rather than over-drying or stripping away the skin's natural balance with chemicals and synthetics, organic skin care products work in harmony with the skin.
Whether a product is 65% organic or 95% organic, it has a percentage of non-organic ingredients and as such we feel these percentages make the whole product non-organic. We truly believe the only way to deliver the 'best of the best' is to use organic, vegan, certified, plant based, pure & natural ingredients in our formulations to ensure the purest creams money can buy. Therefore, we insist on using '100% organic natural ingredients' in our formulations throughout our full range of skin care products.
