I have used organic cosmetics once and I was quite disappointed with the color after the application. I tried organic foundation and not only didn’t last on my skin but also it becomes a lot whiter on my skin. Only the benefit I had was it did helped with my acne problem. Now I am only sticking to organic skincare products.

I was in the same boat , but after researching all the carcinogenic ingredients that are in our everyday products that are linked to cancers and such I decided to take the plunge and go organic. I fully read labels so I’m not duped into buying the same product with the word organic just slapped on the label. I was lucky to find an edgy line (like mac and urban decay) with all the good ingredients that does not irritate my super sensitive skin and actually cleared up the acne i’ve been battling sine I was 13 (I’m now 25) and in the colors that I desire. The major reason I opted to go organic was because I was learning about all the toxic chemicals that seep into our bloodstream from our skin. If anyone is skeptical about trying organic because of the quality or online purchasing I suggest trying http://www.johnny-concert.com they have the best products I’ve ever used (even above my mac, chanel, Nars etc). I really couldn’t of been happier with my find and the results

I can’t buy organic cosmetic since I’m not rich. There are such wonderful organic cosmetics at my local health food store but everything cost $15 or more. There’s no way I can buy an eyeliner, lipgloss, foundation,and eyeshadow for 15 dollars each plus tax. I would not be able to pay my bills.

Hi!

I’ve used certain organic products for YEARS now. Organic shampoos and conditioners put an end to my dermatitis and organic creams helped my acne-proned skin. It’s not just a trend but a very positive change in everyday habits.
Good organic make-up is harder to find. I like Lavera products and mineral make-up (only *pure*, not the stuff by Rimmel, L’Oreal and such).

Just like in Germany, organic products in Italy have to be certified. “Green”, “natural” and similar adjectives alone don’t mean anything

Hi Donna, thank you for that! It is not easy for you though (in the US I mean) as you do not have a proper control instance. I can read in the comments also some rather (sorry to say) ignorant opinios e.g. when there is animal testing for the products, well, you cannot change it. If you would say that somewhere in Europe people will stone you. At least it is not really funny and animal testing is really unnecessary for cosmetical products at least. andreea´s last blog post..Umsatzzuwachs für BEIERSDORF trotz Konjunkturflaute
