    What you need to know about certified organic skin care

     

    If you read the last post, you already have an idea why you should use certified organic skin care.

     

    Let’s take a closer look at the benefits…

     

    The certified organic ingredients in natural skin care products are safer and healthier for you because they are grown without

     

    ·    pesticides and herbicides

    ·    synthetic chemical fertilizers

    ·    genetically engineered seeds

     

    Certified organic plants are grown in soil that is richer and has more nutrients. They are processed without harsh chemicals and toxic solvents. The final certified organic ingredients used in the natural skin care products are richer in nutrients than those commercially grown and processed and those that are synthetically derived.

     

    Remember, your skin is the largest organ in your body. It absorbs a great deal of what you put on it. Some of the ingredients actually get into your bloodstream. You are in fact feeding your skin with every skin care product you put on it, whether natural, certified organic or synthetic.

     

    It’s important to make sure that the ingredients in the skin care products you use on your body are also substances you want inside your body and circulating in your bloodstream. All your organic and natural skin care products should be nourishing to your skin and body too.

     

    In addition, choosing certified organic natural skin care products is not only good for you, it’s also beneficial for the soil and the environment as well.

    Organic or natural skin care – which is better?

     

    If a skin care product states that it is natural on the label, it may contain natural ingredients. However, the quantity and the quality of the natural ingredients are unknown. It may also have other synthetic ingredients that can be harmful, cause cancer or be tainted with cancer-causing contaminants.

     

    If the skin care product is certified natural by the Natural Products Association (NPA), it is required to be comprised of “at least 95% all natural ingredients.” The NPA defines natural as “Ingredients that come or are made from a renewable resource found in nature (Flora, Fauna, Mineral), with absolutely no petroleum compounds.”

     

    The NPA Standard for natural skin care products allows some synthetic ingredients only when “there is not a readily available natural alternative ingredient” and “there are no suspected human health risks as indicated by peer-reviewed third-party scientific literature.”

     

    The natural skin care ingredients as defined by the NPA may have been grown with synthetic fertilizers and sprayed with chemical pesticides and herbicides. In this case, there may be unknown harmful chemicals and contaminants in the product which are not listed on the label.

     

    Skin care products that claim to be natural and organic, without any certification, are similar to products that claim to be natural without certification. These products will contain some organic ingredients, but the same questions that lurk for the uncertified natural products still remain for uncertified natural and organic products. Although some of these companies may have top quality products with impeccably pure ingredients, many do not. 

     

    So, what is the best natural skin care? It is a skin care product that is USDA certified organic to food standards.

     

    The problems with the OASIS and EcoCert Organic certifications have been previously discussed in this blog.

    Anti-aging natural skin care products

     

    There are a lot of anti-aging products on the market. Many claim to be natural. However, if you read the ingredients list you’ll find that a great many so-called natural skin care anti-aging products are far from natural.

     

    Very popular among the highly marketed so called all natural anti-aging skin care products is the use of nano ingredients. This is a technology that is rapidly being integrated into many products, not only skin care.

     

    The main issue you should be concerned with is the fact that these ingredients have not been adequately studied. No one knows the long term effects on your health from the absorption of nano ingredients. However it has been shown that nano sized titanium dioxide enters the cell and damages the DNA. This alone is good reason to avoid all skin care products, whether natural or not, that contain nano sized ingredients.

     

    Here are three of my top picks for certified organic natural anti-aging skin care products …

     

    Rejuvenessence Facial Serum rejuvenates tired and stressed skin with powerful healing ingredients like avocado, rosehips, calendula, jojoba and carrot. There are no synthetic chemicals, no petroleum derived ingredients and no contaminants – just organic, whole, nourishing ingredients to feed your skin and to regenerate and revitialize your complexion.

     

    Firming Eye & Neck Serum decreases the appearance of crow’s feet and fine lines and wrinkles. It moisturizes and tones with organic ingredients like rosehips, avocado oil, olive leaf, horsetail and nettle. It’s ultra concentrated with real food nutrition for the skin.

     

    Ambrosia Essence is the ultimate skin rejuvenation treatment. It’s composed of powerful and effective herbs and flower extracts to tone, soothe and renew the skin. Tamanu nut oil, rosehips and neroli are just three of it’s eight potent and healing ingredients.

     

    Rejuvenate and revitalize your skin with the best natural skin care anti-aging products that contain truly healthy and nourishing ingredients.

    Natural skin care tips for sensitive skin 

     

    If you have sensitive skin, you probably know the frustration of trying product after product, only to find that it irritates your skin or you have some kind of reaction to it. You may even have tried natural skin care products claiming to be mild, gentle and healing to sensitive skin… only to find that again you reacted to the product.

     

    Many skin care products claiming to be all natural really aren’t natural at all. That’s because the word “natural” is not legally defined for skin care products and manufacturers can use “natural” to mean anything they want. Yes, it’s misleading, and that’s why it’s so important to be informed so you know how to identify truly natural skin care products.

     

    My top recommendation for natural skin care products for sensitive skin is to choose skin care products that are certified organic, preferably to the USDA National Organic Program standards.

     

    For best results, follow these steps:

     

    Cleanse with a gentle, all natural skin care product, specially formulated for sensitive skin with healing herbs and essential oils.

     

    Once a week, use a gentle exfoliant to gently remove dead skin cells and promote a glowing and wholesome skin tone.

     

    Use a mineral mask, also once a week, to draw toxins from below the skin surface to refresh your skin and give it a clear and healthy complexion. Make sure you condition and moisturize after using the mask to prevent your skin from dehydrating.

     

    Always use a skin conditioner or toner, made specially for sensitive skin, after cleansing to nourish your skin and provide a base to lock in the moisturizer.

     

    Moisturize your skin to restore and repair damaged skin and protect against free radical damage and moisture loss.

     

    The all natural and organic skin care products from Australia, by Miessence are my top pick for sensitive skin care. Follow the links below for more details and complete instructions on their use and how to get the greatest benefit from them.

     

    Soothing Cleanser

    Gentle Exfoliant

    Soothing Mineral Mask

    Soothing Skin Conditioner

    Soothing Moisturizer

     

    If you use these products and still find that you are getting a reaction, then it is likely that you may need to look at your diet and improving your health.

     

    Note: This is not intended to be medical advice. If you need medical advice, please see your doctor.

    What is the best natural skin care?

    Certified organic skin care is always your best choice for the finest, safest and healthiest skin care products.

    When you’re looking for certified organic skin care products, it’s important to note that until recently there were no official certifying organizations in the U.S. for skin care products. Those that were certified were certified according to the National Organic Program (NOP) standards for food.

    With consumer demand growing for certified organic skin care and cosmetics, the manufacturers of conventional product lines want a piece of the organic pie. The OASIS Organic Standards were created by mainstream cosmetic companies like Estee Lauder and L’Oreal. OASIS is not a true organic standard. It allows synthetic ingredients, ingredients grown with synthetic herbicides and pesticides, and preservatives derived from petroleum.

    The truly all natural skin care companies, with a conscience to produce the healthiest products for the consumer will not use the synthetic and contaminated ingredients allowed under the OASIS standards. These standards were created to allow the conventional skin care product manufacturers to call their products certified organic without having to make truly organic products.

    Miessence certified organic skin care is the world’s first internationally certified organic skin care line. These products are made of only beneficial ingredients to feed and nourish your skin.

    100% organic natural skin care, that meets TRUE organic standards, really is your best choice for the healthiest and safest products to use on your precious body.
