Organic skin care

“If it can be done naturally, why go for artificial means” – this is the basic premise on which ‘organic skin care’ works. Organic skin is a natural form of ‘skin care’. ‘Organic skin care’ is not only friendlier to skin, but also inexpensive. If exercised in the right way, organic skin care can prevent the occurrence of a lot of skin disorders and can help keep your skin healthy and young-looking for a much longer time.

Organic fruits and vegetables are the most popular “ingredients” used in the organic skin care routines e.g. cucumber, turmeric, apple, papaya, ginger and others find a wide use in organic skin care routines. These organic materials have a very refreshing and vitalizing effect on your skin. It’s important that you use fresh organic fruits/vegetables.

Milk is known to posses good cleansing properties; in fact, the name of some skin care products contains the word ‘milk’ in them. A combination of milk with ground oatmeal acts as wonderful cleanser.

Ground oatmeal is especially good for oily skins and is a popular ingredient in organic skin care regimens.  It is used in various combinations e.g. with egg, honey, milk and fruits, for preparation of organic facial packs.

Wheat germ is another popular ingredient in organic skin care products. It is rich in vitamin E and is known for its exfoliation as well as moisturising properties. Wheat germ, in various combinations with other organic materials, is used to prepare facial masks for normal and dry skin types.

Yogurt and sour cream are other organic materials that are popular for their exfoliation and moisturising properties.

Use of organic honey is also popular. It helps in retention of moisture and helps impart a glowing look to skin, plus it has antiseptic properties.

Rose water is often used as a toner in organic skin care routines.  Lavender water is popular too.

Organic skin care is really an art that, once perfected, can give wonderful results in a very cost effective manner.
