It seems that everywhere you look you are bombarded with the words, ‘natural’ or ‘organic’ but do we truly know the meaning of these words? What is the difference between natural and organic makeup? In the hopes of obtaining healthier products we tend to reach for the natural or organic brands. Although these words may seem similar it is important to be aware of the differences and to make an informed decision when purchasing such products.
A product labeled “natural” simply means that it has not been chemically altered from its original state and nothing as been removed or added. Natural products are derived from natural plants or animal sources but the use of the term is not regulated or certified. However, organic means that a product has been manufactured, produced and distributed through organic means, which are defined by specific guidelines set by organizations such as the Organic Food Products Act. Organic products are made with ingredients grown without synthetic chemicals, sewage sludge or GMO’s (genetically modified organisms). Products labeled as “organic” are not permitted, by law, to contain synthetic ingredients. Just as the public is consuming more natural or organic products, they are now seeking for natural and organic makeup.
