Organic Beauty – Our Brand is our Image

Did you know that some of the most widely recommended face and body creams, including many from "natural" brands, contain harmful ingredients like alcohol, phthalates, parabens, petroleum, formaldehyde, and synthetic fragrances? These substances can dry out skin, cause irritation, disrupt hormones, and even pose serious health risks.

Alcohol (often listed in skincare products as 'alcohol denat.' or 'ethyl alcohol') not only ages the skin prematurely by drying out its natural moisture but also hampers the absorption of vital anti-aging nutrients like Vitamin A.

Phthalates, found in many cosmetics, are known to seep into the body and have been linked to various health issues, including cancer.

Parabens, especially chlorinated variants, mimic estrogen and are significantly toxic.

Petroleum derivatives (i.e. petroleum jelly), often contaminated with carcinogens, and formaldehyde, a notorious irritant and potential carcinogen, are commonly found in skincare despite their known risks.

Fragrances, though they may mask unpleasant odors or even earthy aromas in natural skincare brands, are a leading cause of skin allergies and respiratory issues as they are typically synthetic.

 

At Organic Body Essentials, we're committed to purity and effectiveness. Founded in 2014 as the first USDA Certified Organic skincare brand, we prioritize ingredients that nourish and enhance skin health.

Our formulations are powered by nature's finest ingredients, each chosen for its exceptional benefits for skin and full-body health.  Just a few of the outstanding ones we use include:

Aloe Vera - Renowned for its soothing and antibacterial properties, aloe vera helps heal and moisturize the skin, reduces inflammation and severity of blemishes while promoting collagen production.

Red Raspberry Seed Oil - This lightweight moisturizer boosts skin hydration without clogging pores, rich in antioxidants like vitamins A and E that protect against cancer-causing free radicals and support skin elasticity.  It also offers the highest natural sun protection of any oil on the market.

Frankincense - With antioxidant properties, frankincense helps combat signs of aging by improving skin elasticity and moisture retention.

Myrrh - Known for its healing and astringent properties, myrrh supports skin health by soothing irritation and promoting a youthful complexion.

Helichrysum - Offers powerful antioxidant protection against environmental stressors, helping to prevent premature aging and maintain skin's natural balance.

When it comes to fragrance, we use only certified organic essential oils that enhance the therapeutic benefits of our products without compromising your skin's health. (Though it is important to consider personal allergies to oils, such as lavender, when using our scented products).
