Many little girls rummage through their mother’s vanity bags and when they grow up, start experimenting with various make-up products. Most of us can recall the first Kajal and Lipstick that we have used. As the years' pass, we tend to realise that quality matters more and the products that we see commercially give better results in terms of payoff and pigmentation. But at what cost?

• Fact #1: Our skin is the largest organ in our body.
• Fact #2: As per a study, 60% of the chemicals used in our products tend to penetrate our skin and go into the bloodstream.

The commercial make-up products that we use contain chemicals ranging from irritants and harmful toxins which can cause birth defects and hamper cognitive abilities, to carcinogens. People are experiencing health hazards that were not as plaguing as compared to more than a decade earlier.

If the above-mentioned facts sound compelling, you may want to switch to Organic and Ayurvedic make-up. Keep reading to know their benefits.
