certification according to the Fair for Life standard . When it comes to picking the best plantbased ingredients for your skin , there are so many great and beneficial ingredients we love at Botanical Republic . For example , apricot Kernel oil helps minimize fine wrinkles and improves skin tone as it contains Vitamin C and E . Prickly Pear Seed Oil is another wonderful oil that works wonders for your skin . Finally , baobab oil , my personal favorite . iIt ’ s a nutrient-rich oil that contains Vitamin A , E , and Omega fatty acids , which are all excellent for keeping your skin clean and healthy !
2 . Where did the idea to combine environmentalism and beauty come from ?
For me , it stemmed from my personal experiences on what worked and what was important to me . I found that natural resources were some of the most effective ingredients when it came to skincare . However , to continue to benefit from these resources , they must nurture the environment they are found in . I believe it is essential to give back , so I wanted to ensure that Botanical Republic effectively did that .
3 . How can consumers benefit from sustainable beauty ?
Many conventional skincare products have toxins and chemicals that are bad for your skin and the environment . By using sustainable beauty products , you help eliminate these harmful products , protecting yourself and Mother Earth . It is important to note , however , that although natural beauty products are very beneficial , they do not work for everyone , so it is always important to check the ingredient list to ensure it is safe for you and your skin .
