Anyone can look gorgeous at the hand of a professional cosmetician or beautician, but once that make up flakes and fades many people are quick to recognize their flaws and wish for a long-term permanent solution.
Not only that, but several make up products out there can actually age your skin faster than if you were to not use them at all!
As more people realize just how detrimental make up can truly be for our skin, they are turning to more natural and holistic methods of maintaining their beauty. Because of this, herbal beauty products are being snagged off of the store shelves at an explosive rate.
Some benefits to herbal beauty products include:
- Large selection of different beauty products
- Herbal beauty products are skin-friendly
- Most herbal products have zero side effects
- Herbal products contain natural vitamins and minerals that are necessary for keeping our skin texture and tone at its best
Most herbal beauty products also contain no fragrances, no artificial colors or dyes, and are cruelty free.
Here are some of the most popular herbal remedies that people are using to keep themselves naturally beautiful:
Natural Sunscreen: Did you know that you can actually use herbs to help protect your skin from the sun? Herbs such as calendula, chamomile, green tea, linden and rosemary are natural ways to both keep your skin protected from those damaging UV rays and to revitalize your skin.
TIP: Use one of these natural herbs under your moisturizer rather than a store-bought sunscreen as a healthy alternative.
Lip Balm: Aloe Vera is an obvious choice for anyone wanting to add a bit more moisture to their lips. Other herbs that work wonderfully in keeping your lips plump and moist include beeswax, bee propolis, apricot, castor oil, camphor, golden seal, jojoba oil, menthol, Icelandic moss and squalane.
NOTE: Many lip balms, though they may be herbal, do test on animals. Try your best to find a cruelty-free lip balm – there are several different choices out there!
Shampoos and Conditioners: Many of those commercial “herbal” shampoos and conditioners are, in fact, NOT herbal at all. To find a true herbal shampoo or conditioner, try visiting a natural health store and pick products that contain the following nourishing herbs: Aloe Vera, chamomile, comfrey, jojoba oil, burdock, coconut oil, rose hips, rosemary, marshmallow, and sage. These herbs will even cure those who have persistent dandruff issues as they naturally drench one’s scalp in moisture and balance pH levels.
Facial Cleanser: Yes, herbal beauty products can even remove the most stubborn of make up that you may use on a daily basis! Look for facial cleansers that contain any of the following herbs: Nettle, calendula, St. John’s wort, rose hips. The best of facial cleaners also contain distilled water and vegetable-based glycerol
TIP: For an all natural moisturizer, try using a serum cream or even olive oil to rehydrate your skin.
The best thing about these herbal beauty products is that you can even make your very own herbal beauty products at home! Look up some fun ways you can incorporate different herbs you have around your home into your beauty routine.
