3 Benefits of Using Organic Cosmetic Products

When it comes to cosmetic products, is organic better? Yes, indeed. No doubt, chemical ingredients can be effective and some can even produce the desired results. But chemicals can also harm your health as they enter the bloodstream through your skin and build up toxins in your body.
Here are the top benefits of using organic cosmetic products.
Healthier Skin and Hair
When you use products made with natural ingredients, you benefit from their healing and therapeutic properties. Many skin and hair products include extracts of flowers, roots and herbs. Olive oil, coconut oil and jojoba oil are also common ingredients of organic cosmetics. You can also find turmeric and other plant-based ingredients widely used to make natural cosmetics.
Natural cosmetics use healthy ingredients that are grown and harvested using organic methods. In natural beauty products, you won’t find chemicals or synthetics such as paraben, propylene glycol and such.
When you use natural substances on your skin and hair, you receive the benefits from their properties that can last a lifetime. Organic skin care products contain antioxidants such as vitamins C, A and E derived from plant-based sources. These can help fight aging and impart a youthful glow to the skin.
But it is important to know about natural ingredients and not just go by hearsay. Fortunately, it is now easier for consumers to know about the compositions of natural beauty products as there are many trusted online resources now. For instance, you can check Aubrey Organics review and then make up your mind about the company’s products and how you can benefit from them. Many organic products can also contain chemicals in small quantities. So, it is important to read the labels before buying any product.

Protection from Allergies and Rashes
For people with sensitive skin, using organic cosmetics can be a boon. You can easily choose products that contain ingredients that can heal rashes and calm your skin. Some of these ingredients can be tea tree oil, aloe vera, lavender and other plant extracts. Some common skin troubles include acne and dryness. For people with skin conditions like rosacea, psoriasis and eczema using products with chemicals can do more good than harm.
Those who suffer from allergies from harsh scents can use essential oils (or products with essential oils) to smell lovely as well as keep their discomfort away.
Hair care products with ingredients like fenugreek, fruit extracts and herbs like henna can provide relief from problems like dandruff, dry hair and itchiness.  
Access to Eco-Friendly Products
When you use organic products, you help the environment in more ways than one. First, harvesting of natural ingredients doesn’t require any processes that can harm the environment. For instance, obtaining substances like lead and aluminium (used in many cosmetics) requires heavy mining, which is not good for the earth. Second, organic farming methods are good for the preservation of soil and our water resources.
Most organic cosmetic brands also use recyclable packaging that further helps the planet.

This week it is liquid chalk spray.  They are a bit similar but yet different.  Here is how to make it: Supplies: 1 tsp. washable tempura paint 1 cup of hot water 1/2 cup of cornstarch squirt of dishwashing liquid 1 squirt bottle- I found them at the dollar store 1.  Add cornstarch to one cup of hot water whisking to mix so that there are no clumps. 2.  Add one teaspoon of washable tempura paint and a quirt of dishwashing liquid.  Mix well. 3.  Pour it into your squirt bottles and shake well. 4.  Go have fun!!!   This kept my daughters attention much longer the the fizzy chalk last week.  I also think this was easier to work with and just more fun in general.  I love seeing the chalk wet but then to see it dry.  I think it dried darker so it was fun to see the changes.  :)  Ready, Set, Go!  Have some fun!

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.   This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :)  It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)   I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
