It gets confusing when natural skincare companies try to attract consumers who are concerned about what goes on their skin by saying how their natural products manage to do what "non-organic" products do. There are so many natural beauty companies on the market these days - I'm quite curious about the newest addition: Ali Hewson's Nude Skincare. I applaud companies that are drawing attention to environmental issues and that are carbon neutral and all that, but I wonder how plant extracts are supposed to work together (in a way that is just as effective as "chemical" ingredients) to work "with the skin's own biology", "strengthen the acid mantle", "reduce premature aging", "stimulate collagen production", etc. Thanks so much for answering my question.
