Easier on the Nose
Mass produced products usually smell good right? It’s great that they do, but when you look at the ingredients list
you will always see ‘fragrance’ listed as an ingredient. The issue here is that big brands are basically forced to cover up the smell of their own product. The chemicals they include don’t smell very good, they smell exactly like you imagine - chemicals! To cover this up they have to use another chemical to try and make the product smell good. The end result is that you’re smelling a chemical cocktail, and sometimes it’s not very enjoyable.
Earth Friendly
Products sourced from natural ingredients have less negative environmental impact. Products that have a lot of
synthetic chemical end up releasing those chemicals into the air & water during the production process. You might even wash some products down your drain (if in the shower for example), releasing them back into the environment. The chemical composition of natural products is organic, meaning it’s easy for the environment to break these down.
