Natural Skincare is not a topic of recent times; it has been in practice since ancient times when natural skincare was probably 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 Herbal skin care routines have been replaced by synthetic/chemical-based skincare routines.

 

The natural 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 – our laziness (or just the fast pace of life) and the commercialization of skincare.

Even herbal skin care products have been commercialized. 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 fresh ones made at home.

 

However, it seems that things are changing fast and more people are now opting for natural and herbal skin care routines. But still, none want to make them at home, and hence the commercial market of herbal skincare products is on the rise.

 

what are these herbs or herbal skin care mechanisms?

Aloe vera,

 

Aloe vera, which is an extract from the Aloe plant, is one of the best examples of an herbal skincare product. Freshly extracted aloe vera is a natural hydrant that helps in soothing skin. It also helps in healing cuts and treating sunburns.

 

herbal cleansers

 

A number of herbs are known to possess cleansing properties. Dandelion, chamomile, lime flowers, and rosemary herbs, are a few examples of such cleansers. Their herbal skin care properties get invoked when they are combined with other herbs like tea.

Antiseptics

 

Antiseptics are another important part of Herbal skincare. Lavender, marigold, thyme, and fennel are good examples of herbs that are known to possess antiseptic properties. Lavender water and rose water also form good toners.

herbal tea

 

Tea plays an important part in herbal skincare. Tea extracts are used for the treatment of skin that has been damaged by UV radiation.

 

herbal oil

 

Oils prepared from herbal extracts present another means of herbal skin care. Tea tree oil, Lavender oil, borage oil, and primrose oil are some popular oils used in herbal skin care. Some fruit oils (e.g. extracts from fruits like banana, apple, and melon) find use in shower gels (as a hydrating mix)

 

Homeopathic treatments and aromatherapies also come under the umbrella of herbal skin natural skincare remedies.

Herbal skincare is good not only for the routine nourishing of skin but also for the treatment of skin disorders like eczema and psoriasis. Most herbal skincare products don’t have any side effects (the most important reason for preferring them over synthetic products) Moreover, herbal skincare products can be easily made at home, hence making them even more attractive.

 

CONCLUSION

So, herbal skin care is the way to go. However, this does not mean that you totally discard the synthetic products. Some people go to the extent of debating with their dermatologist if he/she suggests a synthetic product. You should accept the fact that some skin orders might need the usage of clinically proven non-herbal skincare products.
