YOUNG GENERATION KEEN TO PREVENT AGEING OF SKIN

 Writing about the latest trend in beauty market, Abndrew McDougall in online journal "Cosmetics" confirms that the millennial generation is quite savvy, having access to latest information on skin and cosmetic products, and is showing greater tendency for effective anti aging products.



With growth of social media, sharing of high resolution photos and selfies young people want to look flawless, radiant and younger than their age in person and online, thus pushing the demand for products which deliver in performance and offer multi-functional benefits for a longer lasting youthful looks.



The market is flooded with variety of products, most of them containing petroleum jelly which increases self-life of products and cuts cost. However, beauty and make-up experts are cautioning against petroleum jelly which is just a thin layer over the skin, which does not get absorbed into the skin, and just "seals the dirt".



For any effective anti-aging regime, maintaining skin elasticity is very important. With aging, skin loses its elasticity, ultimately leading to lines and wrinkles. Use of chemical-based stuff can speed up this process and render aging skin lose its luster.

MORE AND MORE CONSUMERS LOOKING FOR SAFE COSMETICS

There are reports from different quarters that consumers are increasingly looking into the ingredients of the cosmetic products before they decide to purchase them.  This is a healthy sign both for the good brands and for the health of  the consumers in the long run.

For example, Organic Monitor, recently released a study which concluded that nearly 2/3rds of natural personal care product consumers in UK specially avoided items containing parabens.  (Parabens which are extensively used by many beauty brands, are petroleum-based ingredients which, apart from other reasons, also help increase the shelf life of the product.)

As pointed out by Jack Constantine of beauty brand Lush, "I think transparency is going to be hugely important, as over the coming years, with the access we now have (referring to the availability of product information, through newly developed apps - like "Think Dirty"), which list detailed ingredients of individual cosmetic products.

As we have been reporting from time to time, more and more players in beauty industry are trying to phase out use of microbeads from their products. (Microbeads are petro-based tiny molecules used mainly in exfoliants, shampoo and other body care products, have proved to be environmentally harmful.)

Consumers looking for safer skin care products, will find wide choice in natural organic formulations which are being used by more and more health conscious consumers.

Analyzing this trend, experts have assessed the global market for natural cosmetics to be of the order of $ 15 billion by 2018.

WELCOME MILLENNIALS' HEALTH CONSCIOUSNESS IN SKIN CARE

Tracking the latest trend in skin care products, Tucker Schreiber writing for Shopify.com highlights the fact that a new generation of shoppers , are following healthy lifestyles and setting new trend in health care area, which is a welcome sign of health self-consciousness. 

With over 23% holding a Bachelor’s degree or higher, the millennial generation is the most educated generation in history.  Millennials account for 26% of the current US population.

They’re also spending a lot of money online.  They’re simply tired of the idea of shopping malls. Traditional retailers, for the first time ever in 2014, generated half their sales growth through ecommerce.

Our (HERBALLY RADIANT) interest as the manufacturer and retailer of herbal organic skin care products lies in the new trend, that is, these days, purifying and cleansing your skin might look like a messy mud run. That’s because beauty products infused with charcoal ingredients are a huge trend right now.

The top of the range, Age Defying Rejuvenating Cleanser, launched by Herbally Radiant, nearly 5 years ago, which has earned excellent customer reviews, contains Sodium Hyaluronate, Activated Charcoal.  This is aloe juice based cleanser formulated especially for mature skin, that has amazing properties to remove gently all impurities from face, without taking out the essential natural protective oils.  With added Vitamin B and Vitamin E, this formulation also has white tea extract and organic black willow bark.  The Essential Oil Lavender binds all these natural ingredients into a highly effective skin-friendly cleansing agent.

Tucker Schreiber rightly adds: “Because of its natural detoxifying properties, charcoal acts as a magnet for toxins and impurities. Everything from charcoal pills to charcoal exfoliants is now being turned into a health and beauty product.”

WILL REVLON AND OTHER BRANDS REMOVE TOXIC INGREDIENTS?ecedent?

 Another piece in online journal CosmeticDesign.com, highlights the activities aimed at getting rid of harmful chemical toxins from the beauty products of well known brands like Revlon and L'Oreal.



The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has been active in initiating public pressure on brand companies for removing harmful toxins from cosmetics and personal care products. EWG asked Revlon and L'Oreal to remove specific toxic ingredients like DMDM Hydantoin, Quaternium, Butyparaben, Isobutyparaben and Propylparaben from their products.



Due to growing public pressure, many companies are understood to be working on different formulations.  However, it is possible that the new products so reformulated might contain different potentially harmful chemical ingredients, for which pressure groups like EWG and consumers will need to be watchful.



At the same time, as manufacturer of herbal organic beauty products, HERBALLY RADIANT has not come across any incident where natural beauty products were questioned for any health risk.  We have, therefore, been advising consumers to shift to natural cosmetics, which are more effective, safe and good for skin's health - as their use over centuries would confirm.

BEWARE OF UNVERIFIABLE CLAIMS OF 'NEW CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS'

“Color Cosmetics are Cheating!”

Under this headline, Deanna Ultroske, quotes scientist Yulia Park in online journal Cosmetics Design.com: “Consumers think applying color cosmetics is cheating”. Yulia Park was addressing the annual gathering of Society of Cosmetic Chemists in New York.

As a matter of fact, we are witnessing very aggressive marketing by prominent brands where consumers are promised all kinds of lofty results – mostly unverifiable claims – which tend to unduly influence choice of the consumers.  Such brand companies have, therefore, come under harsh scrutiny of FDA over such marketing claims made on the basis of new chemical formulations.

On the other hand, the concept of beauty and how to enhance and maintain is different in natural organic systems. The organic beauty formulations contain ingredients that nourish the skin and ensure its optimum physiological functions. The herbs give overall support to the skin by enhancing collagen synthesis.

There are powerful plants, extracts of which have the ability to enhance the radiance or bright complexion. These help coalesce discontinued tissue, thereby healing and strengthening the regenerative functions of skin, which is important for repairing aging effects.

The herbs and natural ingredients support moisture balance and provide overall nourishment to the skin. Essential Oils like Pink Grapefruit, Lavendula, Tea Tree and others act as effective carrier of the tiny molecules of ingredients into the pores, besides creating very soothing and relaxing aromatic effect.

Organic ingredients are also good natural sources of Vitamins A, C and E. These help in protecting skin against allergens, inflammatory substances, chemicals and even stress. Many factors in external environment can cause inflammation or breakouts which can speed up aging process. Inflammatory mediators such as leukotrienes and prostaglandins, cytokines and growth factors target skin texture, integrity and tone.

Against the backdrop of chemical-based beauty solutions, one will find  many beneficial natural beauty formulations which focus on root causes, instead of creating a chemical layer over skin with potential harm in the long run.

CALMING AND RELAXING EFFECT OF ORGANIC COSMETICS

The online beauty journal Cosmetics Design has recently reported a survey of women in which 88% of women surveyed thought that personal care products impact their skin, and 56% found it stressful when they have not gone through regular skin care regimen.



As we have seen, stress is important factor to be avoided for maintaining bright healthy skin.  Experience has also confirmed that stress also tends to speed up the aging process which gets reflected on face.



Especially in winter months, it is very useful to stick to daily skin care regimen  as skin is able to absorb nutrients better during cold season. If the skin care products contain such ingredients which produce a calming effect, it doubles the benefit.



To create the calming and soothing effect through herbal skin care products, we are using very effective Essential Oils, like Geranium, Rosewood, Neroli, Pink Grape Fruit, Roman and German Chamomile. A fine blend of such Essential Oils in our products has amazing effect not only for rejuvenating and revitalizing the skin, but also the kind of aromatic effect which creates calming effect.  Our top of the range anti-aging formulations, namely, REJUVENATING (for oily and combination skin type) and RADIANT (for dry and combination type) contain best combination of Essential Oils which are known for their healing, soothing and rejuvenating properties.
