Choosing organic skin care products can be tough. There\u2019s so much to consider and not enough information out there.<\/h3>\n

Here are a few tips to help you make better decisions in the beauty aisle. And always remember the cardinal rule: if you can\u2019t pronounce the seven syllable words on the ingredient list, it\u2019s not natural. Don\u2019t buy it.<\/p>\n

1. Know your skin type<\/h3>\n

The more honest you can be, the better. You need to assess what your skin needs most. If you are prone to acne, what is the cause? Is it dirt build-up from doing naughty things like sleeping in your makeup? Is it because your face is overproducing oil? It\u2019s important to know your skin type and the reasons behind your skin afflictions because that will bring you to step two.<\/p>\n

2. Know what the products do<\/h3>\n

When choosing a skin care product, you want to check out what each product does. Your skin is probably not going to respond well to a \u201cone size fits all\u201d approach. Instead, research cleansers that will nourish your dry spots and even out your skin tone. Your toner should restore pH balance and your moisturizer should calm and nourish your skin. Pick each individual product with care and make sure they compliment each other to achieve the best results.<\/p>\n

This means if you live in a tropical climate, don\u2019t get a moisturizing, heavy cleanser and wear a heavy moisturizer. This will cause your skin to break out. Keep it light and fresh. Switch to the heavier, creamier products in the winter.<\/p>\n

3. Choose the right products<\/h3>\n

Organic skin care products are the best because they do not rob your skin of any nutrients or try to change its nature. Quite to the contrary, organic brands use natural ingredients to restore your skin\u2019s natural ability to combat free radicals and stay healthy. This means that it\u2019s not stripping skin of its natural oils in order to dry up blemishes. This usually causes your skin to overproduce oil, causing further breakouts.<\/p>\n

4. Get into a routine<\/h3>\n

<\/strong>It\u2019s not enough to find a cleanser or a toner. You need to seek out a line of products that will promote your skin\u2019s natural balance. This usually includes a cleanser, toner and moisturizer.<\/p>\n

As the seasons change, you will probably need to change moisturizers (a lighter one in the summer, heavier in the winter) or reduce the amount that you use. The importance of a routine is paramount in giving your skin what it needs.<\/p>\n
