Many females want to know if they need to change to natural makeup products. Just like any other subject there are great arguments from makeup companies and physicians on both sides of this subject. Dr. Roberta Palestine, who did her schooling at the Mayo Clinic in dermatology said, "Organic isn't always the best. Synthetic isn't necessarily worse. Some natural plants such aslikePoison Sumac are terrible to put on your skin…a chemical is a chemical, what matters is your skin type." There are so many different cosmetic choices because there are so many skin types, if you take the time you can get one that fits your skin.

Women who suffer from allergies and not had their choices in cosmetics now have more options as more manufacturers come out with products that are gentle on the skin and hypoallergenic. The term "hypoallergenic" has no official medical definition, as it is still not proven what ingredients reduce allergies. So are natural cosmetics products all that they are built up to be? A brief look at the ingredients list will tell the user what the key ingredients are on a product because they are listed in order of volume ratio. Often, the ingredients will be listed on the box the make-up came in.

When switching beauty products often times the skin will have to undergo a readjustment time. So women who are considering about changing to organic make-up should go with it all the way. By doing it this way, the skin only has to go through the adjustment phase one time. If people are leaning toward making the switch, it is important to pay attention to what's inside a product that says it's natural. Do a little research before trying out a new beauty product line to see if it is a reputable company that uses high quality ingredients and backs the products they produce. So should you make the switch? Not everyone needs to switch the cosmetics they use but if you are have any irritated skin its a good thing to consider. Often women will be allergic to a product and not even be aware of it. Throughout the years, women get used to dry, itchy skin that comes from repeated use of the types of cosmetics they wear out in public and to work. Ladies who wear a base make-up to smooth out the skin color on their faces will dry out and aggravate their skin so each time is a little worse. Women with delicate skin should avoid products with fragrances, mineral oil, formaldehyde, and alcohol. These chemicals will all remove excess moisture from the skin and cause aggravation.
