Our skin is our largest organ in our body and behaves like our digestive system in the way that whatever we put in or on our body may be absorbed into our bloodstream. And the average woman will apply more than 200 chemicals to her skin and hair while using regular beauty products, which will then be absorbed into the body. This means that when pregnant, knowing what you’re putting on your skin has never been more important. With a plethora of information out there, and so many do’s and don’ts to grapple with during and post-pregnancy, it’s recommend to switch to natural and organic skincare, which is non-toxic and chemical free. This way you can be sure both you and your baby are safe from harmful chemicals.
Still not convinced? Here’s why you should choose organic skincare… not only in pregnancy, but in life.
- When you use organic products you begin to work with your skin, not against it. For example, organic products are derived from plants and don’t require your liver to detoxify cosmetics that contain synthetic additives, preservatives or colours.
- Instead, organic products contain certified ingredients that compliment your skin. For example, oils like RosehipPLUS are nutritive, anti-inflammatory and contain vital antioxidants – the only ingredient being Rosa Canina (Rosehip).
- Organic products can still be effective, there are many plant-based ingredients which can be used as alternatives for synthetic ingredients. For example, coconut oil is used commonly as a stabiliser and preservative or kaolinite which is a clay mineral and helps to absorb ingredients, or there’s xanthan gum which works to thicken products.
- Organic products are also gentler on your skin and may be complimentary for people with sensitive or allergen-prone skin.
- Organic products are also friendlier on the environment and are less harmful when it comes to run-off. Organic also means that the farming practices do not use pesticides or fertilisers, which can reduce soil quality and impact air quality.
- Going organic also means that testing on animals is not necessary because the ingredients are plant-based.
