Most of us think that "natural" is code for better. Unfortunately, there are good and bad natural ingredients. 

Let's look at a few natural ingredients that have tremendous benefits for your skin. Some of these natural wonders can help battle breakouts, soothe irritation, treat uneven pigmentation, and even prevent sun damage. 

So, if you want to guarantee that the ingredients you are putting on your face are in fact, all-natural and fresh, then consider personalizing your skincare. 

You select what ingredients that go into your unique formula, made fresh to order! 

What Are Some Natural Ingredients That Work the Best and Are the Safest to Use?

Here are a few of my favorite all-natural ingredients that are perfect for Custom Skin Care Products. And after you read about them, you will see why they are my favorite.

Green Tea

Many of us already know the benefits that come from drinking green tea, but are you aware that it is a superhero ingredient in skincare? If not, let me tell you, green tea extract is a powerful class of antioxidants that soothe and act as an anti-inflammatory, calming your skin. The best two benefits, it helps evens out discoloration and diminishes the signs of aging. 

Another excellent benefit of using green tea is that it also aids in reversing damage to your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays!

St. John's Wort

If your skin is in desperate need of hydration and improvement of elasticity, then check out St. John's Wart.

This incredible all-natural ingredient also helps reduce inflammation of the skin from either acne or eczema. It can speed up the healing process of bruises, burns, and scars since it helps your skin cell regenerate and encourages circulation and oxygenated blood to blemished skin.

Vitamin C

No one ever wants to talk about getting older, but unfortunately, we all age. As we do, our skin's collagen production starts to slow down; if you start using vitamin C, your collagen increases and helps your skin look firmer and smoother.

Yes, please. Also, vitamin C can help lighten and brighten your skin, prevent blemishes, and decrease any inflammation from certain skin conditions.

Vitamin E

Summer is wrapping up, and many of us spent a lot of time outdoors after getting back to somewhat of a normal life after Covid. However, maybe now your skin is paying the price even with your best efforts of applying sunscreen. Have a custom facial cream that uses vitamin E as one of your natural ingredients to help improve your skin from sun damage and protect your skin if you are out in the sun. If your skin is thirsty after being dried out from the summer sun, then use vitamin E. It will help your skin retain its natural moisture to help improve its hydration, promoting cell regeneration and treating current signs of premature aging. 

Licorice

So, do you love black or cherry licorice? Me, I was never crazy about black licorice, but cherry is my jam; besides being delicious, you would never expect that it is a natural skincare ingredient with excellent benefits.

No, I am not saying to eats tons of licorice to see the benefits for your skin, but I will encourage you to personalize your skincare using it as an ingredient. If you do, you will see your skin lightening, the fading of dark spots, and the improvement in the tone and texture of your skin.
