Today,
modern industrialized society release toxins such as chlorine, chemicals (such
as pesticides and herbicides) and heavy metals (such as lead, cadmium,
aluminum, mercury, and manganese) into the environment. Toxins and chemicals
have become a fact of life; they can be found in food and water people eat and
drink daily, as well as cosmetics. Realizing the environmental and health
implications of chemicals and toxins, people have started adopting a healthier
lifestyle free of chemicals and toxins. And the only way to make a toxin and
chemical free lifestyle is to go organic.
Why People Prefer Organic Cosmetics?
The
word organic has almost become a synonym for healthy--it has become the new
buzzword. People are turning to everything that is organic. And more than any
other industry, it is the cosmetics industry, which has seen exponential growth
in the manufacture and use of organic products. The latest trends and figures
in the cosmetic sector indicate an organic revolution and there is no doubt
that organic beauty products are the future of the cosmetics industry. The two
main reasons for the customers' preference for organic cosmetic products are:
Several
studies have shown that the cosmetics industry uses more than 5000 different
ingredients in the manufacture of skin care and hair care products. Moreover,
the basic ingredients in most of the cosmetic products are derived from
petroleum. For instance, the fragrances used in lotions, shampoos, and other
cosmetic products are actually aromatic hydrocarbons that are petroleum based.
The chemicals are found to cause serious health problems in the long run.
Certain
products are found to cause allergic reactions in some people. They develop
rashes, inflammation, itchiness, abscess and swelling, on using certain skin
care products. Such people prefer organic products to ordinary commercial
cosmetic products as it is safe and harmless.
On
realizing the preference for organic products by the consumers, more and more
cosmetic manufacturers are manufacturing organic cosmetic products. This has
forced cosmetic packaging manufacturers to come up with different packaging
solutions for organic cosmetics. Unlike non-organic cosmetic products, a lot of
factors need to be taken care when packaging organic cosmetic products. Hence,
paper, glass, PP, PEHD, PET, is widely used by wholesale cosmetic packaging
manufacturers to pack organic products.
