The market for organic moisturizers is swirling with many natural and organic choices, due to high demand. People are becoming aware that some moisturizers contain harmful ingredients that can even damage their skin and overall health. These ingredients include harmful chemicals (like parabens and phthalates). Those with sensitive skin are also flocking to natural moisturizers, because they contain natural ingredients less likely to trigger skin reactions. Harmful chemicals can cause redness and even breakouts for some skin types.

For those with very sensitive skin, there are many organic moisturizers that are also labeled hypoallergenic. They contain plant-derived ingredients that soothe the skin, without any allergens known to cause reaction. Another reason why people are choosing organic moisturizers is because they are more sustainable and have less of a harmful impact on the environment. So if you want a sustainable moisturizer, look for one that is labeled 100% organic, with plant-based ingredients and no chemical preservatives.

Consumers need to know that the product is safe for their use and won't negatively impact their skin health or overall well-being. A moisturizer is something that most people use on a long-term basis. If you have been using a chemical-based moisturizer, consider switching to an organic moisturizer.

• Organic
• Natural
• Hypoallergenic
• Paraben-free, phthalate-free
• Fragrance free
