Rethink Your Cleansing Ritual: 3 Ways to Treat Your Skin Right

When it comes to taking care of your skin, many of us think trialling product after product is the way to find the perfect solution. However, with chemical-rich products littering high street shelves, this can soon leave you more confused than when you started - meanwhile, your skin continues to suffer.

With today’s post, and a little help from us here at Herbfarmacy, you’ll find yourself one step closer to solving the facial care conundrum and loving the skin you’re in.

Switch to natural products

With endless advertorials, celebrity endorsements and social posts promoting the benefits of a daily skincare routine, it’s little wonder many people turn to chemically-infused cleansers, toners, exfoliators and moisturisers in their quest for an unbeatable complexion - but are they doing more harm than good?

Harsh products could be stripping your skin of its natural oils, which can leave your face feeling dry and damaged. The first step to achieving naturally radiant skin is to investigate the products hiding in your wash bag and dispose of any which are packed with chemicals. There’s much debate surrounding the impact of cosmetic products and what they could be doing to our bodies, so, in an effort to avoid toxic ingredients, we’d always recommend sticking to natural skincare solutions.

Say goodbye to bad habits

When it comes to taking care of our bodies, we’re all guilty of our own bad habits - and when laziness takes over, that early morning facial cleanse is the first thing to go, often replaced by convenient face wipes. Trust us when we say that neither your skin nor the planet will thank you for the use of these products - many of which are thought to be packed with unfriendly chemicals.

Following a long day at the office or running around after little ones, sticking to a time-consuming skincare routine isn’t easy, either - but the good news is, you don’t need to set aside hours on an evening to show your face a little TLC.

Seek help from herbal solutions

For those of you looking for a quick fix without sacrificing the benefits to your skin, it’s time to turn our attention to the natural world. With an Organic Muslin Cloth and some Refining Cleanser and refining exfoliator, you’ll have just about all you need to carry out that easy, pre-bedtime ritual you’ve been longing for. Our Refining Cleanser is fit to burst with soothing chamomile and calendula, while our Refining Exfoliator includes apricot kernel oil for smoothing dark circles and jojoba beads to gently moisturise.

These natural face products can provide your skin with some much-needed respite and won’t take away from precious time which could be spent doing other things.
