Though many think that products with natural substances are either more effective or innately safer, this is not always the case. Some natural chemicals can aggravate or cause allergic reactions, much as produced components can. Moreover, the formulation and concentration of the components of a skincare product usually define its efficacy instead of its source. Rather than depending solely on the “natural” label, you should evaluate products based on their specific components and interactions with your skin. Scientific evidence, not marketing claims, should guide your skincare ingredient choices.
