5 Reasons Organic Makeup is Better
Your skin absorbs 60% of what you put on its surface. (beautifiles) That's why its so important to read labels and observe how your skin reacts to certain beauty products. Organic and all natural makeup can be a great option and here is why:
1. Organic cosmetics don't use additives that are harmful to your skin. What are additives? Additives can be any substance added to makeup for flavor or color. The bioactive ingredients in organic makeup are actually working to fight against skin problems.
2. Organic beauty products have anti-oxidants that improve the condition of our skin. Antioxidants are substances that may protect your cells against the effects of free radicals. Free radicals are molecules produced when your body breaks down food or is exposed to unhealthy environmental elements such as smoke or radiation. These free radicals can lead to cancer, the damaging of cells and heart disease.
3. Natural ingredients have their own scent which can have an aroma therapeutic effect.
4. Fewer chemicals that are harmful to the environment are used in organic cosmetics.
5. Currently the FDA has no authority to enforce testing of beauty products for safety. By opting for organic ingredients, you as the consumer can be sure you are buying the safer product.

Another favorite product of mine!
I absolutely love Nivea Soft Intensive Moisturizing Creme. This is a must have in your makeup kit because it leaves the skin moisturized and soft. It has a fluffy feeling when applied to the face and does not leave any oily residue. This product is very light. I usually apply this on the face with a wedge sponge and let the skin absorb the product before applying makeup and because the product absorbs very quickly this speeds up my skin prepping process.
