4 Essential Organic Beauty Products
Every Skincare Routine Needs
Skincare routines are something everyone has taken an interest in recently, especially since the way you take care of your skin today can have long-lasting effects as you age.
But with so many companies out there selling different products, it’s hard to choose which products will best suit you. The skincare industry has become extremely complicated and hard to navigate for people who just want clear and smooth skin.
Don’t be fooled by influencer-endorsed skincare products that promise you skin like theirs.
The best skincare products have ingredients that benefit your skin, instead of chemicals that do more harm than good to you (and our environment). Organic products use natural ingredients to ensure your skin stays safe.
Here are some standard skincare routine products and what the organic versions of them can do for you.
Cleanser
Just as the name suggests, cleansers are meant to clean your skin from outside exposure after a long hard day.
They also get rid of any residual dirt that may have accumulated overnight to prepare your skin for makeup in the morning. Cleansers are the first step of a typical skincare routine.
Organic cleansers often contain ingredients such as coconut and tea tree oils. Natural extracts from lemon, grapefruit, and sage leaf are wonderful for oily skin. The citrus in the fruits can also provide a healthy dose of Vitamin C.
Tea tree has bacteria-killing properties, making it a great ingredient choice!
You can find a wide variety of cleansers in our face range.

Toner
Toner is often used as a makeup remover since it wipes off any remaining makeup and accumulated dust and debris. It also tightens and tones your skin’s pores to reduce impurities from reaching your face.
Because it is strong, some ingredients found in other toners can damage your skin without you realising. Organic toners will do a much better job on your skin – and they’re a lot safer.
Some organic toners contain sea kelp and algae, which have vitamins and minerals that will protect and strengthen your skin. Witch hazel, a type of flowering plant, can ease skin irritation and redness on skin that has been freshly exfoliated.

Moisturiser
Moisturiser is a skincare must! Someone who hasn’t developed a skincare routine would probably have a bottle of moisturiser on their bathroom sink.
The ideal moisturiser is smooth and silky enough to moisturise your skin thoroughly, but isn’t too gooey that it leaves an oily residue after. With organic moisturisers, you get well-balanced textures with ingredients that give you extra skin benefits.
Shea butter is a popular moisturiser because of its smooth texture that can help soften skin. It is also anti-bacterial and antibacterial, so it is often the right choice for sensitive skin.
Aloe vera is also something you might see on organic moisturiser bottles. Its properties make it an excellent anti-aging element, and it can help lighten any skin blemishes.

Sunscreen (for the day)
SPF isn’t just for a day out on the beach. You are hit by the UV rays of the sun every day, even when it’s not sunny out. Not all sunscreens are beneficial.
Some contain toxic chemicals - which means they aren’t safe to use on your face daily. Natural sunscreen contains titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which can block both UVA and UVB rays of the sun.
Keep an eye out for these ingredients the next time you buy sunscreen!
Conclusion
Contrary to an odd popular belief, having a skincare routine doesn’t make you vain or self-indulgent.
Rather, a constant skincare routine ensures that your complexion stays flawless and works as a form of self-love. By taking time to rejuvenate your skin, you’re allowing yourself some “me” time, and you’re taking steps to improve your self-esteem… because there’s no truer saying than look good, feel good!
