Im study now Cosmetology and I would like to say:
Each cosmetic is-safe, parabens do not harm us if anyone says otherwise they are nonsense!

And I agree with you. Products with natural preservatives have a shorter shelf life and can end up being too expensive in the long run, but if you’re aware of that and prefer natural preservatives over synthetic ones, then it’s alright to buy them. As long as you know their benefits and faults and make an informed decision, that’s the main thing.

Very interesting post. Of course, natural is better than synthetics but there are its pros and cons as well, just like you have laid out.

Hence, be an informed consumer and choose wisely based on our skin needs and what one believe in and are ready to pay for. Natural may cost higher then synthetics, but can be vice versa too.

However, being an antioxidant, it goes bad if exposed to light and air, so while it works, products that contain it don’t last as long as those that contain parabens. But if you’re fine with that, it’s a good natural alternative. And keeping natural products in the fridge is a good idea 🙂

Whenever I have an all-natural moisturizer, I make sure to keep it in the fridge.
