Is natural cosmetics really effective? Differences with conventional cosmetics

“Natural cosmetics are not as effective as conventional ones.”

Have you ever heard or read this statement somewhere?

This is a common doubt when you are thinking of moving from conventional cosmetics, with synthetic chemicals, to 100% natural cosmetics based exclusively on plants. It is often said that natural products do not offer the same results as conventional ones.

And we wonder…

Why is this myth so deeply rooted?

• Aggressive marketing: the conventional cosmetics industry is highly profitable and invests a large part of its income in advertising to perpetuate messages that praise effectiveness and immediacy while hiding the risks synthetic ingredients pose to health.

• Lack of knowledge: many people are unaware of the benefits of natural ingredients, their affinity with the human body and how they actually act on the skin.

• Short-term results: the idea that “natural means weaker” persists in many minds, since results may not be as immediate and require a consistent routine. Transformations in nature do not happen overnight, nor do they in our bodies.

100% natural cosmetics are more effective and safer

The end never justifies the means, and for us it is not legitimate to harm, for instance, your endocrine system for life in exchange for reducing wrinkles or puffiness by using a “highly effective” firming serum based on synthetic ingredients.

MATARRANIA’s 100% natural cosmetics are more effective thanks to:

• Biocompatibility with the skin: many natural ingredients have a chemical structure similar to that of the lipids and components of the skin, which favours affinity, absorption and therefore effectiveness.

• Pure, unrefined ingredients from organic farming, grown without chemical herbicides or pesticides. On the one hand, this preserves their maximum quality and, on the other, ensures a sustainable and environmentally respectful production.

• Honest formulation and high concentration of active ingredients, thanks to a delicate combination of plant oils and botanical extracts, vegetable butters and essential oils.

Important note: Essential oils (which are often controversial) are carefully selected and measured in each formula to provide great benefits and wild aromas that replace synthetic fragrances.

Ancestral formulas that recover traditional rural wisdom

We do not trust synthetic ingredients, however “effective” they may seem in the short term. We rely solely on plant-based, organic, pure and unrefined ingredients, cultivated and processed without synthetic elements, which care for people’s health and for the planet.

We use simple and transparent formulas MATARRANIA cosmetics contain no water and are 100% active ingredients. This means they are much more effective, you need to use less product and therefore it lasts longer.

Our production is small-scale and handmade; we control 100% of the manufacturing process of our organic cosmetics, from the cultivation and harvesting of plants to their maceration to obtain botanical extracts, formulation and production.
