Natural Skin Care

 

Skin care has been in practice since ancient times when herbal skin care was the only way to take care of skin. However, skin care has transformed in a big way. Herbal skin care routines have been replaced by synthetic/chemical-based skin care routines. The herbal skin care recipes which once used to be commonplace are not so popular today (and even unknown to a large population). This transformation from herbal skin care to synthetic can probably be attributed to two things –the convenience of non-natural chemicals and the corporate commercialization of skin care. Even herbal skin care products have been commercialized. Many of these commercial herbal skin care products have to be mixed with preservatives in order to increase their shelf-life, hence making them less effective than the ones completely natural.



However, it seems that things are changing fast and more people are now opting for natural and herbal skin care routines. Here are a variety of NATURAL skin care products that can helps with acne, cellulite, stretch marks, hair removal, anti aging and even help keep that healthful glow in you face.
