What should I pay attention to when choosing natural body care products?  

Before you decide on any body care product, it is important to know your own skin type and to be aware of any allergies. This applies to conventional care products from the drugstore as well as to sustainable body care. But with natural body care products you can at least approach the matter a little more relaxed, because in most cases they are more compatible and uncomplicated for your skin than conventional alternatives.  

What different options are there for natural body care?  

The wide range of natural body care products also brings with it a wide range of ingredients. For this reason, we have included in our sustainable Online Store We have developed various functions to make your selection easier. You will find specific and clear information about the ingredients for each individual article.

In general, natural body care products can be divided into three groups based on their ingredients: 

  1. Herbal and botanical ingredients: Natural skin care products are often rich in plant and botanical ingredients such as aloe vera, lavender and shea butter. These natural extracts offer numerous benefits for your skin. Aloe vera soothes the skin and helps with wound healing, lavender has a relaxing and anti-inflammatory effect, while shea butter intensely moisturizes the skin. These ingredients are an excellent choice for those looking for natural skin care that is gentle yet effective.  
  2. Natural oils and fats: Natural skin care products often use natural oils and fats such as coconut oil, olive oil and avocado oil. These oils are rich in nutrients and fatty acids that nourish and hydrate your skin. Coconut oil, for example, is known for its moisturizing properties, while avocado oil supplies the skin with vitamins and antioxidants. These natural fats are particularly good for restoring the skin barrier and preventing dryness. An intact skin barrier is essential, especially for warding off harmful environmental influences.  
  3. Natural extracts and fruit acids: Natural skin care products often contain extracts from fruits and plants, as well as natural fruit acids and lactic acids. These ingredients are designed to gently exfoliate the skin and remove impurities. For example, an extract from papaya can brighten the skin and reduce discoloration, while lactic acid helps renew skin cells. The combination of natural extract and fruit acid contents offers a gentle way to improve the skin's appearance and promote a radiant complexion. 

The sensitive question about sensitive parts of the body: Which products are best for intimate care? 

Especially at Intimpflege- Or menstrual products it is worth considering ecological alternatives. Menstruating people are confronted with this issue in drugstores on every corner: perfumed period products, perfumed shaving creams or even highly chemical lubricants often lead to imbalance and irritation of sensitive skin. But that doesn't have to be the case. Fortunately, there are now countless natural alternatives that are worthwhile for the following reasons: 

  1. Gentle and gentle: Natural intimate care products often contain mild ingredients that respect the delicate pH of the intimate area. This can help reduce irritation, dryness and discomfort.  
  2. Avoid irritating chemicals: Many conventional intimate care products contain synthetic fragrances, dyes and preservatives that can also irritate the skin in the intimate area. Natural products avoid these chemicals and allow the skin to breathe.  
  3. Supporting the natural balance: Natural intimate care products can help maintain the natural balance of the vaginal flora. This can help prevent infections and irritations, as the influence of external disruptive factors is the biggest cause of unpleasant fungal or bacterial infections.  
  4. Low allergen: Natural intimate care products are often free of common allergens and potential pollutants that can be found in conventional products. The sensitive mucous membranes of the intimate area are particularly susceptible to allergies and therefore particularly worth protecting.  
  5. Animal testing free: Many natural brands are committed to being cruelty-free and promoting ethical practices in the production of their products.  
  6. Soothing and moisturizing: Some natural intimate care products contain soothing ingredients such as aloe vera or chamomile, which can help relieve skin irritation and hydrate the skin in the intimate area. 

Can't I just make my own natural body care products? 

Making your own natural body care products undoubtedly has its appeal. The ability to customize the ingredients to your own preferences and the certainty of knowing exactly what is in the products sounds tempting. But there are also compelling reasons why trusting in high-quality organic body care is often the better choice. 

The most important of these is the quality assurance that organic branded products can guarantee you. Manufacturers use strict quality controls in their research to ensure that their products meet the highest standards. They test for effectiveness and safety and follow strict production guidelines. Unless you have a laboratory in your living room, this is probably the safer route. In addition, these brands bring a wealth of expertise in skin care. They use advanced formulations that are tailored to the specific needs of the skin. Selecting high-quality, certified organic ingredients and thoroughly testing them for purity and effectiveness is a matter of course for these brands. Expertise is essential, especially when it comes to anti-aging, massage oils, sun protection or intimate care products.  

The safety of the products also falls into this category. While organic body care products are tested for allergic reactions and skin compatibility during production, no one can guarantee that your homemade face mask will not result in an annoying allergic reaction...
