If you’ve been checking the labels on different products in the store, you might have seen something like “natural skin care product” and “organic skin care products”. Are they really different? This is where many people get confused. If you ask some store attendants they might tell you that the two are the same. However, unfortunately, both products are different.
Organic skin care products undergo rigorous screening before they can be certified. According to the USDA, organic skin care products must contain 95% organic ingredients or higher. The ingredients must be free of synthetic chemicals such as fertilizer and pesticides. Furthermore, it must not contain any genetically modified organism (GMO).  In the USA, products that contain about 70% or higher organic contents can be advertised as “made with organic ingredients”, however, it does not mean that the product is free from synthetic chemicals. Skin care products can be labeled “natural” provided they contain natural ingredients even at low concentration.
