The Best Organic Skin Care According To Your Skin Type

Nature and Natural Things Always Loves You

By Lab CarePublished about a year ago 3 min read

Yes We Are Talking About Organic Cosmetics. The beneficial, natural ingredients in organic products are full of helpful nutrients, anti-aging compounds, better fragrances and more – and ultimately, they're better for your skin. Skin care is a health issue, no different from the food I put on my dinner plate or the time I take to exercise every day. So many of us have become numb to the potentially harmful ingredients we’re using on our skin, and it's important to educate yourself on the alternatives.

Best organic skin care for the face.

Your face may be only 4.5 percent of your skin’s surface area, but it’s the 4.5 percent with which you greet the world every day, so it deserves special attention. Finding the best face-care products for your skin type requires patience and persistence. Just because the first organic product you try doesn’t work does not indicate that organic face products are not for you—it just means you haven’t found the right one. Taking a skin-type approach can help you figure out where to begin.

Best organic skin care for average skin.

Average skin means your skin doesn't swing to any extreme; you don’t struggle with redness, reactions, breakouts, dryness, or dullness. A basic routine for this skin involves cleansing every night (always!) and providing adequate moisture and sun protection. Exfoliation once a week will keep cell turnover healthy and allow products to penetrate more effectively.

Suggested natural ingredients for normal skin:

• Aloe vera

• Squalane

• Jojoba oil

• Zinc Oxide

• Essential oils of lavender, geranium, and carrot seed

Don’t apply the essential oil directly to your skin. It may harm your face skin like itching, redness, swelling. Always use a carrior oil with essential oil (1:1). You can use jojoba oil, almond oil, sunflower oil, rice bran oil, rosehip oil as carrior oil.

Best organic skin care for oily or breakout-prone skin.

If your skin is oily or you have a lot of acne, it means your sebaceous glands (or, pores) are overactive, and sebum is getting trapped in the pores, where it becomes infected and inflamed. As with any health condition, you must start at the root of the problem, addressing diet, stress levels, and hormones with your health care provider—then you can move on to selecting products to support it from the outside.

When you strip the skin of too much, it provides feedback to the sebaceous glands that the skin does not have enough oil and kicks them into overdrive, exacerbating the problem. Instead, provide the skin with gentle exfoliation and nourish it with the right balance of oils, training the sebaceous glands to settle down and make less sebum. Suggested natural ingredients for oily or breakout-prone skin:

• Dead sea mud

• Activated charcoal

• Honey

• Black cumin seed oil

• Rosehip seed oil

• Essential oils of lavender, cajeput, thyme

If you are facing with svere acne no matter what type of your skin is apply tea tree essential oil in pure form. In case of any allergic reaction use it with carrior oil. Potash Alum is also very effective for acne and open pores.

Best organic skin care for sensitive or reactive skin.

Whether your skin reacts to everything or just a few common skin-care ingredients, it's not all bad: It can make you into an educated label reader! Less is absolutely more when you’re dealing with sensitive skin. If you react to something, it’s harder to do the detective work when you’re using lots of ingredients. Sometimes, your skin just needs simplicity and time to heal itself.

Suggested natural ingredients for sensitive or reactive skin:

• Aloe vera

• Vegetable glycerin

• Honey

• Sunflower oil

• Sweet almond oil

Best organic skin care for dry and dehydrated skin.

Skin can get dry or dehydrated for various reasons, from diet to sun damage to age-related changes. Stay hydrated, keep your electrolytes balanced, and eat plenty of healthy fats like avocados, hemp seeds, or healthy fish. Be sure to apply product while your skin is still damp, to lock in moisture.

Suggested natural ingredients for dry or dehydrated skin:

• Aloe vera

• Hyaluronic acid

• Mango butter

• Sea buckthorn

• Borage seed oil

• Essential oils of frankincense, sandalwood, and carrot seed

• Squalane
