Really, what does it matter? Who cares what the ingredients of natural skin care products are as long as the products work? I saw that exact comment on a skincare website recently.
I dont care whats in it as long as it works.
Why is there such a consumer movement towards natural skin care products? There seem to be 2 reasons.
1. Bit by bit there is a growing realization that there are some fantastic naturally occurring substances that really are very good for your skin.
Theres now no doubt about that. In the past I have talked about Phytessence Wakame for example. This is a seaweed found in Japan that has extraordinary properties that are excellent for skin health, and this is one of the major reasons why Japanese women have such good skin. They eat the important ingredient.
Or perhaps Shea Butter, the oil from the nut of the African Shea tree, one of the best moisturizers around. And theres many many more examples of natural skin care ingredients that are as effective, and in many cases better, than the ingredients used in mainstream big brand skin care products.
2. And consumers are finding out that there are often suspect or dangerous ingredients found in big brand skin care products, usually because a chemical alternative is way cheaper than the more natural alternative.
I have written before about some of the chemical ingredients that can be found in many skin care products and cosmetics. And in some natural skin care products too.
So if you consider these 2 reasons for the big movement towards more natural skin care products it does seem to us that the ingredients that are found in your products ARE important.
The consumer wants ingredients that are safe to use and work well. This movement towards all natural alternatives is driven by what is in the products. The ingredients are what concern people.
Consumers demand safe and effective products now.
Do you get safe and effective ingredients in all natural skin care products? No, not necessarily.
But there is a way to work out which products are safe and effective and I'm pleased to say that there are some very good, effective and safe natural skin care products that are well worth using.
The best are made by a company that is a signatory to the Compact For Safe Cosmetics, and most importantly all the ingredients are listed clearly on their website so you can check what's in the products.
That is pretty persuasive. Find out who they are on my website.

So many women want to know how to get great looking skin without actually realizing that what they are trying to achieve is healthy skin. So here's 3 healthy skin tips.
Because healthy skin exhibits all the characteristics that you want. Its younger looking skin. Its skin that glows and feels good to wear. Its skin that resists wrinkles and lines more than unhealthy skin.
Its skin that makes you feel, and look, good.
So many women think of getting great looking skin without making the link between how her skin looks, and how healthy her skin is. You cant have great looking skin that is unhealthy.
So as I promised, here's my 3 healthy skin tips.
1. Get yourself healthy.
Obvious though it sounds if you're healthy your skin is healthy, you can't have healthy looking skin if you're unhealthy yourself.
So all the things that you read about in the get fit stay healthy literature have an effect on your skin.
You need to improve your diet, more fruit and vegetables. More water to drink.
And it may sound a little silly but more exercise translates to better skin. Why? Because exercise improves blood circulation and your skin relies on good blood circulation.
2. Make sure you don't do the 2 worst things you can do for your skin.
What are the 2 worst things you can do for your skin? Smoking and sunburn. Both are just terrible for skin health and you can't have healthy looking skin if its burned to a crisp and you smoke.
3. Seek out the right vitamins for healthy skin and for general health.
There's plenty of nutrients important for great skin health, and I won't list them all here. One to mention though is omega 3 oils. You probably know about omega 3 already, but didn't realize that it's great for skin health too.
So how do you make sure you're getting all the nutrients essential for great skin health?
Use the best all natural skin care products.
So why should you be using the best natural skin care products? Because big brand skin care products may contain ingredients that are suspect or dangerous to your health, and to your skin.
The worlds best natural skin care products contain a wide range of essential nutrients that science now knows are a huge part of overall skin health.
And the worlds best natural skin care products, as well as providing a wide range of essential skin nutrients, don't contain suspect ingredients.
There's no magic to great healthy looking skin. Follow some simple rules and not only will your skin thank you for it but you'll be healthier yourself and feel great, both generally and in your new skin.
If you do all the right things for your skin and stay healthy yourself the results will be visible in your skin.
