The words natural and organic are grossing up to millions in the beauty sector. Creams created from parabens, lipsticks with synthetic colours in them, and different types of preservatives are now ingredients of the past. People have finally come to the conclusion that beauty lies in ingredients that are extracted from nature and do not use pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. Beauty industry has, therefore, shifted its focus to creating safe and natural products.

However, just like the world of politics, the beauty world is not free of corruption and you will come across numerous beauty claims that misinforms you which is why we have come up with a list of natural and organic beauty products to detox your cosmetic closet.

Read through the list and choose your products vigilantly.

Before proceeding with any explanation, it is important for everyone to know what the difference between organic and natural. A natural ingredient is derived from anything that exists naturally while an organic ingredient is created without using genetically modified organisms, antibiotics, growth hormones, pesticides etc.

Aloe & Bloom

Aloe and Bloom is a brand created by a mother daughter duo of cosmetologist and aesthetician respectively, who wanted to explore the realms of the natural inner and outer beauty by creating an organic skincare line. Diana and Brittney Douglas are powerful believers in the healing power of nature and that’s why have worked very hard in bringing us these skincare products.

This brand promotes making healthy skincare choice; an act which is not alien to Diana and Brittney as Diana had long ago recognised the harm of using chemically driven skincare products and had already started creating her own organic soaps at home. Organic, therefore, is embedded in this family’s history and their undeniably healthy products are an evidence of that.
