It is a genuine perplexion that many people are facing with the onset of the clean or green beauty. What is the hype about? What is the need? Why should one be compromising on their skin to “save” the environment or some coral reefs bleaching deep down in the ocean? It all boils down to climate change brought about by different factors like air pollution, use of plastic, ocean pollution, animal cruelty, overexploitation of resources, etc. What’s more is that usually, all these costs are for nothing as they may meet the standards for safety, just about but aren’t really helpful to your skin either. They usually have a side effect which reflects only over time. Historically, we see that man had always tried to enhance their appearance, earlier through natural ways and only in the past two centuries have harmful toxins and chemicals been added, which have a very curated function often with a side-effect either on the skin peripherally or causing internal problems in the body. So thus, there arises a need to shift to greener beauty not only for the planet but also for beauty. It is a shame that people have to be lured with a selfish context and not just because it has an environmental impact. Here are five ways you can be sustainable with your beauty regimes.
