Why Switch To Natural Skincare Products From Medovie

October 22, 2020

Share this article

Skin and scalp dryness can cause itching and irritation that can persist for a long time. The most viable solution for this is to apply skincare products that can restore moisture to your pores without causing harmful side effects.

In almost every local drugstore, you’ll easily find ointments, creams, and shampoos for treating dry, flaky, and irritated skin. Some of them are synthetic, while some are natural skincare products. More people are preferring the latter because they’re more effective and safer, and we suggest you do the same too.

But why are we recommending natural skincare products over synthetic ones? Are they worth the higher price tag over synthetic alternatives? Before you get the answer to these questions, you must understand first the reasons why you’re having skin and scalp problems.

Why Are You Having Itchy Skin And Scalp?

The causes of itchy, damaged, dry, or flaky scalp and skin vary per person. They could be the result of the change of seasons, causing the skin to dry out quicker than usual. Psoriasis and eczema are also some of the possible reasons for flaky, dry, and irritated skin. Stress and an unhealthy diet can also cause dryness of the skin and scalp because these factors affect your overall health.

If you’ve ruled out these common causes, the next thing to look at is your skincare product. Your lotion or shampoo might be the culprit, especially if they’re not made of natural substances. These products might contain chemicals and ingredients that can damage the skin. Your skin may look good on the surface, but it’s probably suffering underneath from the introduction of harsh substances.

Using natural skin care products is a good choice to solve skin problems. The ingredients found in these products aren’t harmful to the body and they can effectively help to treat your flaky scalp and dry skin.

 

Advantages of Using Natural Skincare Products

There’s nothing bad about using unnatural or synthetic skincare products. Technically, they’re just alternative formulations of ingredients normally found in nature. They’re not inherently dangerous, but they contain preservatives and additives that can become harmful when used in uncontrolled amounts. Some skincare companies exploit the affordability of synthetic components to mass-produce cheap products that have high hazard potential.

To be safe, it’s easier to trust skincare brands like Medovie that use natural ingredients that are generally harmless to the body. Clinical tests are also important for trusted brands like Medovie because these ensure that every product released for public consumption is absolutely safe to use.

If you’re still unconvinced, here are the reasons why you should switch to natural skin care products and ditch the use of synthetic solutions that may do more harm than good to your body.

 

1. They use only the safest ingredients

Some skincare companies use potentially hazardous ingredients because they work and they’re cheaper to acquire and manufacture. Unless consumed in large quantities, these components are generally harmless. However, you wouldn’t want to risk your health on products that contain toxic substances that can be easily absorbed by the skin and possibly contact the bloodstream.

When buying skin care products, make sure that they don’t contain any of the following harmful substances:

• Parabens

They’re inexpensive preservatives that prevent the growth of fungi, bacteria, and other micro-organisms that can reduce the effectiveness of the product.

• Formaldehyde

This is also used as an anti-bacterial agent that’s relatively safe at low levels. However, the use of formaldehyde releasers can cause skin irritation.

• Petrolatum

Moisturizers and lip balms often contain this ingredient to create a moisturizing effect. However, it only mimics the moisturized look and can cause further skin drying in the long run.

• Coal tar

Coal tar is a black, thick, viscous liquid used in lipsticks and eyeshadows. It can cause skin irritations and allergic breakouts in heavy amounts. The substance is also carcinogenic even though it’s tagged as safe for human usage.

• Hydroquinone 

This substance is used as a skin-lightening agent. It’s carcinogenic and can cause skin diseases because it forcefully alters the skin’s natural composition.

• Triclosan

Often found in soaps and detergents, triclosan is also used in skin care products for its antibacterial properties. However, frequent use is associated with skin and eye irritation. It can also cause hormone disruptions with adverse side effects on the body and offer no solutions at all. 

• Phthalates 

This substance gives cosmetic products that soft and pliable texture. However, it can cause hormone disruptions and negatively impact the reproductive system, especially in children and men. In some cases, it was found to be the cause of some forms of cancer and diabetes.

These components can damage your skin when applied frequently. Instead of finding solutions for your flaky scalp and irritated skin, you’ll possibly get more health problems to deal with when you use products that contain any of the harmful ingredients listed above.

Natural skin care products don’t have any of the mentioned toxic substances. Their ingredients are extracted from naturally occurring sources like plants and flowers. You can rest assured that they’re gentle on the skin and contain no residues of fertilizers, pesticides, and harmful chemicals. 

 

2. They’re environment-friendly

Since natural skin care products have little to no trace of harmful chemicals, they’re less likely to pollute the air, ground, and water resources when disposed of. On the other hand, synthetic products may contain strong chemicals that can become potential risks to you and to the environment.

 

3. They’re more effective for skin treatment

Natural skincare products are made from plants and flowers that are grown free from pesticides and harmful substances. When tended properly, these plants provide potent compounds effective in treating chronic skin problems. Additionally, these flowers and roots have been found to hold higher levels of antioxidants.

Skincare products made from synthetic materials don’t have the described advantages. Some may even have substances that support the formation of free radicals or cause skin pigmentation that can lead to bigger health issues in the future.

Products made from unnatural substances can also cause skin dryness by altering the skin’s ability to naturally produce oil. Synthetic products can make the skin look older the more you use them. You’ll end up looking into anti-aging creams instead of just finding ointments for your flaky skin and scalp.

 

4. They smell better

The use of synthetic fragrances in skincare products has always been a concern in the industry since the skin is a sensitive organ that can react to unnatural substances. Although these man-made scents are generally safe to use in small amounts, they can cause irritation and other adverse effects to some users.

Hyper-allergenic skincare products made for sensitive skin are often unscented. The reason behind this is that the artificial fragrance you get from the usual creams and lotions come from synthetic substances.
