To pamper their skin and treat skin imperfections, many people prefer to turn to natural alternatives with proven effectiveness. In fact, there is a plethora of natural products that can be used in cosmetics to soothe and care for the skin. These are natural ingredients that have been known since the dawn of time, and most of their effects have been scientifically proven. These ingredients are so effective that luxury cosmetics brands are starting to include them in their formulations. Want to start a 100% natural and organic skincare routine? Here are 5 ingredients from the natural pharmacopoeia for beautiful skin.

1- Aloe vera : A classic for 100% natural and organic skincare 

Aloe vera needs no introduction! A veritable wonder of nature, aloe vera contains over 200 active ingredients, including minerals and trace elements, vitamins, phytosterols and plant hormones, all of which play a part in the skin's complex regeneration process. It also contains polysaccharides, which have a moisturising, anti-ageing and repairing effect on the skin. A plant with a thousand virtues, aloe vera has moisturising, soothing, softening and healing properties. The best friend of dry, sensitive skin, it helps to soothe irritation and heal damaged skin. Astringent, it helps to tighten pores and combat excess sebum.

2- Green tea leaves: another great asset for naturally beautiful skin

If there's one product that has a place in your 100% natural and organic skincare routine, it's green tea leaves. Thanks to their antioxidant properties and the polyphenols they contain, green tea leaves combat premature ageing of the skin. So they prevent the signs of ageing and give the skin elasticity. Thanks to the tannins they contain, green tea leaves are perfect for deep cleansing the skin, leaving it smoother and more purified. An anti-blemish treatment par excellence, green tea purifies the complexion and helps regulate the overproduction of sebum.

3- Mango butter: For effective 100% natural and organic skincare

Mango butter comes from the core of the mango, known for its soft, sweet flesh. A genuine beauty ally as part of a natural skincare routine, mango butter has emollient, moisturising, softening, anti-wrinkle and firming properties. It protects and soothes the skin from external aggressions and helps restore the skin's lipid barrier.

Rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants, mango butter protects the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals. It promotes collagen production, thanks to its squalane, and helps maintain the skin's elasticity and resistance. It's one of the best products to include in your routine for naturally smoother, more beautiful skin.

Astringent and purifying, rosemary oil is a perfect addition to your skincare routine to help regulate sebum and purify the skin. A friend of combination to oily skin, it is formidable against imperfections such as acne, sebum and enlarged pores. It helps regenerate and heal damaged skin and skin prone to itching or eczema. What's more, Rosemary oil is highly effective in combating the appearance of stretch marks.

5- Cane sugar: the gentle exfoliant

Highly appreciated in natural cosmetics for its exfoliating properties, cane sugar is a favourite for gently removing dead skin cells and giving you a smoother complexion. Naturally hydrating, it helps retain moisture in the skin and promotes blood circulation, which can help improve the appearance of the skin. Cane sugar is also rich in alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which fight bacteria and prevent the appearance of blemishes.

In fact, cane sugar is one of the main ingredients in our PERFECT SKIN REGENERATING PEEL.
