You wake up one morning, stumble to the mirror, and realize you must’ve left your humor on the pillow, because as you squint at the reflection, you see a tired-looking stranger staring back at you!
Let me ask you - do you have houseplants in your home? Imagine this: you’ve poured your heart into caring for your beloved plant, only to discover that instead of watering it with water, you’ve been watering it with chemicals! Imagine your dismay. But unfortunately we are doing that with our skin. You had such good intentions, but you were left with the realization that sometimes, your well-meaning efforts just don’t cut it. This scenario serves as a powerful reminder that the right approach is crucial when it comes to skincare.
Just as plants thrive on the right nutrients and conditions, your skin requires the appropriate ingredients and formulations to truly flourish. Clean beauty products, which prioritize safe and effective ingredients, are essential for nurturing your skin without the harmful additives
Defining the Concept of Clean Beauty
Plant-based clean beauty products are gaining immense popularity as consumers demand clean, effective, and eco-friendly options. So too are the demands for unadulterated ingredients, meaning those ingredients have not undergone any processing.
When a product on a store shelf has the word ‘Natural’ glaring back at you, it can be very misleading. Why? Commercial companies who mass produce skincare products would like you to believe the ‘natural’ ingredient listed is just that: NATURAL, in its original form. An example of a natural ingredient in skincare that loses its nutritional value through processing is aloe vera. Fresh aloe vera gel, extracted directly from the plant, is rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants, providing numerous skin benefits such as hydration, healing, and anti-inflammatory properties. But, when aloe vera is processed to create commercial products like bottled aloe vera gel or creams, the heat and preservatives used degrades its original, beneficial compounds. The final product may lack the potency of fresh aloe vera, resulting in reduced effectiveness for skin hydration and healing. Additionally, other additives and stabilizers included during processing may further diminish the natural goodness of the ingredient.
Why do they process a natural ingredient until it loses its original nutritional value? Commercial companies will process natural ingredients like aloe vera despite the loss of nutritional value. One primary factor is shelf stability; processed products typically have a longer shelf life, which is crucial for mass production and distribution, as raw ingredients can spoil quickly.
So we see that processing a natural ingredient can significantly alter its composition and properties, often leading to the removal of essential nutrients. While processing can enhance convenience and shelf life, it often compromises the nutritional value and natural goodness of the ingredients we are looking for.
Clean beauty embodies a commitment to sustainability, nourishment, and wellness while emphasizing luxury and effectiveness. At Tea-licious Skincare, we are proud to embrace these principles wholeheartedly, formulating products that are not only healthier for your skin but also protect planet.
Commercial companies often use the term "natural" as a marketing tactic to attract consumers seeking safer and eco-friendly products. This labeling creates a perception of quality, even if true natural ingredients comprise only a small percentage of the formulation. The lack of strict FDA regulations around the use of "natural" allows companies to differentiate their products in a competitive market, leading consumers to believe they are making healthier choices, despite the presence of significant synthetic components.While some may assume that clean beauty products come with high price tags, many affordable options also adhere to these standards. Lastly, it’s important to note that clean handcrafted beauty products made in small batches are not exempt from regulatory oversight; they must still comply with existing safety regulations in the cosmetics industry, which are enforced by organizations such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States, ensuring that all products are safe for consumer use and accurately labeled.
