TOP 5 REASONS TO USE NATURAL SKINCARE PRODCUTS
All CBD is not created equally. It’s kind of like vitamins—the purity and potency determine the effectiveness. All our products are crafted from hemp that's been organically grown. Continuously researching and developing our extraction and purification techniques allows us to confidently say we are currently using the most efficient methods. At Aūxacann we prioritise a supercritical C02 extraction, widely known as the most effective way to produce clean CBD products without nasty, unwanted compounds.
We use organically farmed hemp plants which are free from pesticides, microbes, or heavy metals, so there is zero chance of cross-contamination. Our CBD oils are broad spectrum containing various cannabinoids, flavonoids, terpenes, and other beneficial natural compounds. They are all completely THC free
#1 THEY ARE EASIER ON THE SKIN
One of the biggest problems with synthetic skincare products is that they’re harmful to some individuals’ skin. Certain ingredients contained within these products can cause everything from swelling to redness to itchiness to outright allergic reactions. For this reason, they’re better avoided altogether. Ingredients to look out for include parabens, sulphates, petrochemicals, synthetic dyes, propylene glycol, and triclosan. However, it’s important to note that some other synthetic chemicals can cause this problem as well.Therefore it’s generally a better idea to opt for natural products. Natural products are free of irritants, and, instead of being a detriment to the skin, they are beneficial to it.
#2 THEY ARE BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Simply natural products are better for the environment than synthetic skincare products. First and foremost, synthetic chemicals have the potential to harm animals and plants with which they come into contact. Should the synthetic chemicals from a synthetic product seep into the ground, they could have dire consequences on surrounding ecosystems.
Secondly, the processes associated with manufacturing traditional skincare products put a great deal of stress on the environment. This is because the extraction of certain ingredients (aluminium, lead, etc.) requires mining. Mining produces a great deal of pollution, ultimately leaving a negative carbon footprint on the environment at large. Natural skincare products forego the use of such ingredients, and so don't necessitate mining. And because they use only natural ingredients, they cause no harm to the surrounding plants and animals.
#3 THEIR MANUFACTURE DOESN’T HARM ANIMALS
You might be shocked at how many skincare product manufacturers test their products on animals. Many of the big names in the industry continue to do so, to the obvious detriment of the animals which are being tested on. The good news is that natural skin care product manufacturers forego animal testing, and, do nothing to harm other living beings. In this sense, they are more ethical and more empathetic than a good many of the synthetic brands. If you’re against animal testing and for the humane treatment of animals, natural skincare products are the best way to go. They will prevent you from contributing to harmful and malicious practices.
#4 THEY ARE SAFER
When compared to synthetic skincare products, natural skincare products are much safer. This is because the ingredients contained within natural products are much safer than those contained in synthetic products. See, when a lotion is applied to the skin, the ingredients contained within it slowly sink into the bloodstream. From there, they have a direct effect on many of the body’s processes. If the ingredients are beneficial, they’ll have beneficial effects. If, on the other hand, they’re a detriment, they’ll have adverse effects on the body. So, by using a natural skincare product as opposed to a synthetic one, you are essentially avoiding all negative health effects. This will result in you feeling better and looking better.
#5 THEY ARE PACKED WITH BENEFICIAL NUTRIENTS
The most poignant way to highlight the differences between synthetic and natural skin care products is to discuss their ingredients. The ingredient profiles of the two types of products are wildly different to the point that they don’t even resemble similar products. When you look at the ingredient label on a synthetic product, you’ll see words such as Triclosan, Glyceryl Stearate, Dye #4, and Petrolatum. These ingredients are made in labs, and, while capable of performing their function, can be detrimental to the body.
Natural products, on the other hand, are filled with familiar-sounding ingredients such as jojoba oil, argan oil, apple juice, lemon juice, and so on. These ingredients are not only not harmful to the body, but they’re beneficial. This is because they contain vitamins and compounds such as Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Resveratrol, alpha-hydroxy acid, and more, all of which help the body to function at optimal levels.
