Mystical Advantages of Natural Raw Materials
Natural Raw Materials in Cosmetics:
A blast from the past with a bright future!
Introduction
The beauty industry has constantly evolved over the years, and recent trends have largely shifted towards natural and organic products.
Consumers now are more conscious about the ingredients in their cosmetics, prioritizing those derived from “nature” and free from harmful chemicals.
This week's blog will focus on some of the natural raw materials used in cosmetics, their benefits and a bit of their history.
Aloe Vera
One of the oldest and most recognized natural ingredients in cosmetics is Aloe Vera. Historically, it was known as the "plant of immortality" and was presented as a funeral gift to the pharaohs in Egypt.
It is known for its soothing, moisturizing, and healing properties.
Today, Aloe Vera is a common ingredient in skincare products, such as creams and lotions, because it helps retain moisture, treat sunburn, and minimize skin inflammation.

Let's move on...
Shea Butter
Shea Butter is another natural ingredient that has been used for centuries. The rich history of shea butter spans centuries, from Cleopatra's reign in Egypt—where she kept the oil stored in large clay jars.
Shea butter has been used for millennia for its excellent moisturizing properties.
It's rich in vitamins A and E, which help in maintaining skin health and protecting against damage from the harsh environment.
Today, shea butter is commonly found in moisturizers, lip balms, and hair care products.
Green Tea Extract ( Camellia sinensis Leaf Extract )
Used in traditional medicine in China for thousands of years, green tea has become popular in cosmetics in recent years for its antioxidant properties.
Today, it is found in many cosmetic products from anti-aging products to eye creams.
Strong antioxidant property with rich catechins content.
Helps to soothe irritated skin and reduce redness.
Additional layer of defense against the harmful effects of UV.
Helps to maintain skin's elasticity.
Another historical oil...
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba Oil is derived from the seeds of the Jojoba plant, native to North America.
It has been used by Native Americans for centuries for its numerous health benefits. Jojoba oil is very similar to human sebum, which makes it a great natural oil for skin care.
Today, it's used in a variety of cosmetic products for its moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging properties.
Olive
Olive has been used for skin care since ancient Egypt. Olive oil, which has antioxidant properties, is also used effectively as a moisturizer.
The Ancient Greeks in particular ground olives with stone and used them as a face mask to exfoliate.
Olives have a high mineral content and contain antibacterial and antifungal properties as well as anti-aging effects.
The first to use olive oil as a moisturizer were the women of Ancient Greece.

It has endless benefits not only in its oil but also in its water...
