Natural skin care is the care of the skin (the largest organ of the body) using naturally occurring ingredients combined with everything from natural soap to oils to pure water. The traditional definition of natural skin care is using botanically sourced ingredients currently existing in or formed by nature, without the use of synthetic chemicals, and processed as little as possible to preserve the integrity of the ingredients.

By definition, this means people who are using natural skin care are making the preparations in their own homes. Natural skin care goes beyond the application of products. It also pertains to a holistic philosophy surrounding the entire body. This includes the belief that what is ingested will affects all aspects of health, including the health of skin. People who use natural skin care products are less concerned with artificial beauty enhancements, as they feel that natural beauty is healthy beauty.

Skin is a dynamic system whose condition and qualities rely on temperature, hydration, environment, and other factors. Plenty of products don’t work, regardless of how you apply them. There aren’t really any true miracle ingredients.
