About me: Skin care is not a topic of recent times; it has
been in practice since ancient times, when herbal
skin care was probably the only way to take care
of skin. However, skin care has transformed in a
big way. Herbal skin care routines have been
replaced by synthetic/chemical-based skin care
routines. The herbal skin care recipes which once
used to be common place are not so popular today
(and even unknown to a large population). This
transformation from herbal skin care to synthetic,
can probably be attributed to two things –
our laziness (or just the fast pace of lives) and
the commercialisation of skin care. Even herbal
skin care products have been commercialised. These
commercial herbal skin care products have to be
mixed with preservatives in order to increase
their shelf-life, hence making them less effective
than the fresh ones made at home. However, it
seems that things are changing fast and more
people are now opting for natural and herbal skin
care routines. But still, none want to make them
at home and hence the commercial market of herbal
skin care products is on the rise.
