Green Talks Ep 42 – Green Tatwa Talks Featuring – Monica Bernal “The Naturallii”

Being natural is incredibly empowering for women because it’s just who you are. You’re embracing all the beautiful things about you from your head to your toes. Because when you mask so much of your natural beauty, people don’t get to see that.

Natural cosmetics

Natural cosmetics and handmade soaps often emphasize the use of natural ingredients and avoid harmful chemicals. They prioritize the use of natural ingredients derived from plants, minerals, and other sources in their formulations. These ingredients can include essential oils, botanical extracts, herbs, and natural colorants. Handmade and natural products typically avoid synthetic chemicals, preservatives, and artificial fragrances. The emphasis is on creating products that are gentle on the skin and do not pose health risks associated with certain synthetic ingredients.

1. Artisanal Craftsmanship: Handmade soaps are crafted in smaller batches with an emphasis on artisanal craftsmanship. This allows for greater attention to detail, customization, and the use of high-quality, carefully selected ingredients. This artisanal approach is also seen in many natural cosmetic products.
2. Customization and Creativity: Both natural cosmetics and handmade soaps often provide opportunities for customization. Artisan soap makers and natural cosmetic formulators may experiment with different combinations of ingredients to create unique products that cater to specific skin types or preferences.
3. Avoidance of Harmful Chemicals: Natural cosmetics and handmade soaps typically avoid synthetic chemicals, preservatives, and artificial fragrances. The emphasis is on creating products that are gentle on the skin and do not pose health risks associated with certain synthetic ingredients.
4. Environmental Sustainability: Many handmade soap makers and natural cosmetic brands share a commitment to environmental sustainability. This can include using organic ingredients, eco-friendly packaging, and adopting practices that minimize the environmental impact of production.
5. Transparency and Ingredient Consciousness: Transparency in labeling and an emphasis on ingredient awareness are common in both natural cosmetics and handmade soaps. Consumers often appreciate knowing exactly what goes into the products they use on their skin.
6. Cruelty-Free Practices: Handmade soap makers, like many natural cosmetic brands, often commit to cruelty-free practices by avoiding animal testing. This aligns with the ethical considerations of consumers who prefer products that are not tested on animals.
7. Focus on Skin Health: Both natural cosmetics and handmade soaps tend to focus on promoting skin health. The use of nourishing and beneficial ingredients can contribute to skin hydration, soothing, and overall well-being.
8. Consumer Education: Natural cosmetic and handmade soap brands often engage in consumer education, providing information about the benefits of natural ingredients, the potential harm of certain synthetic chemicals, and how their products contribute to a healthier skincare routine.
9. Local and Small-Scale Production: Many handmade soaps and natural cosmetics are produced by local artisans or small businesses. This can contribute to the growth of local economies and foster a sense of community support.
