Green is Great: Why Natural Skincare Products are Better- Phoenix Brighton

March 22, 2021

The beauty industry has played a significant role in the state of our planet, with tonnes of packaging ending up in landfills every day and chemicals damaging our oceans.

Add that to the unnecessary suffering of animals used in tests and the fact that many ingredients in street skincare products do

more harm than good, it’s always been a no brainer to us that green products are the way forward.


But if you’re not convinced that organic skincare can be as good a conventional luxury brand lotions and potions, here are just a few things that might help you make up your mind.


Green is better for your skin


Many of the skincare products you’ll find in the shops or some spas are full of nasty chemicals that are really bad for your skin. The parabens, sulfates and phthalates are common ingredients in big name brands have not only been linked to an increased risk of cancer, but they’re also a nightmare for sensitive skin. Organic skincare products are derived from the gifts we have been given by Mother Nature rather than being cooked up in labs, and we think that’s much better for our skin and the world around us.


There’s no compromise on quality


Organic skincare products have come on in leaps and bounds over recent years, and they’re now just as luxurious and effective as the big name brands that still test on animals or use synthetic ingredients. Many people find the condition of their skin improving dramatically once they switch to organic skincare, with marked reductions in blemishes, redness and dryness. Ours also have the added bonus of feeling reassuringly expensive, so you’ll never skimp on luxury here.


It makes you feel good


There’s something that feels really good about sticking to green products.Going organic means you can enjoy the decadent relaxation of a trip to the spa and somehow leave feeling completely virtuous. Organic products smell fresher and have a host of ingredients that make you feel amazing - and without one single bunny rabbit being harmed in the process.


It makes sense for your health


The past year has made us all more aware of our health, so it makes good sense to stick to products that are good for us. Natural skincare is far kinder to the skin than products that contain harsh chemicals, many of which have been linked to long term health issues.


For us, being green is a way of life. We’re proud of our environmental reputation, and as Brighton’s first vegan spa we’ve been flying the flag for high quality green beauty products for years. Book an appointment today and discover the joy of guilt free, luxurious health and beauty treatments.
