Personally I prefer to use all-natural and organic skincare that do not contain any harmful chemicals. This means skin care which has no artificial fragrance or colour, no harmful preservatives, no harsh detergents such as SLS, no petrochemicals such as mineral oil or any other petroleum by-products and no animal cruelty.I agree with most of the organic supporter's believe that if the skincare is not “good enough to eat” as in safe enough to eat, it’s not good enough for your skin. Why? because our skin is the body’s largest organ. It is capable of absorbing whatever we put on it. On a daily basis, people are slathering on a huge amounts of chemicals on their bodies without even realizing it.
It is also our responsibility to create an awareness for people to think about what they put onto their skins on a daily basis. If we won’t put it in our mouth, why would we put it onto our skin? Or our babies’ skin? The skin is really the body's largest organ. If you don't understand the ingredients, should you be putting it onto your skin? Chemicals in skin care are mostly unnecessarily and are potentially harmful so why take the risk when affordable alternatives are available. I encourage everyone to read the labels and understand what it all means.
Below are some dedicated organic brand that I would suggest:
MUKTI
Mukti Botanicals was created in year 2000 primarily due to sheer frustration. Mukti (the founder) was desperately searching for a range of personal care products that were free from harmful chemicals and supported by a genuine philosophy of personal and planetary awareness, health and wellbeing. Her criteria was so strict and her desire so profound that she decided to create her own range. After ten years of research and study including: cosmetic chemistry, aromatherapy, herbalism and organics, she formulated a range of clean, green certified organic products.
Mukti (mooktee) has captured the spirit of liberation and freedom with Australian skincare products that are certified organic and in line with her philosophy - choose products that assist the body to release to toxins instead of absorbing them and, never put on your skin what you would not put in your mouth.
Partnering modern science with traditional herbal recipes, Mukti’s products are certified organic and made in Australia using 100% plant based ingredients to harness the best that nature has to offer. The formulations include optimal concentrations of pure essential therapeutic grade oils, certified organic herbal extracts, essential fatty acids, natural vitamins, plant based liposomes and antioxidants that all significantly contribute to moisture retention, oxygenation and cell regeneration.
Mukti Botanicals utilizes only the purest & highest grade certified organic and natural ingredients, therefore, a little of the product goes a long way. The products are handcrafted in small batches to ensure quality, integrity and freshness. All products have a guaranteed shelf-life of 18-24 months unopened.
Just Herbal
Just Herbal was created in New Zealand in response to a need for affordable, pure, simple, chemical free, natural and effective skin care products and after discovering that other "commercial" products were laden with harmful chemicals.The product range incorporates a wide range of wonderful natural ingredients, all of which feed, nourish, heal and compliment the skin. Just Herbal offers an extensive range of affordable natural face and body products.

The very potent and active ingredients such as essential oils, plants, fruits, vegetable and tree barks extracts, vitamins and minerals work in perfect synergy with your skin, with no chemical ingredients to lessen their efficiency, and enhance the natural beauty of your skin to give it the glow of perfection.
