"Natural" or "Organic"

"Natural" can mean anything to anybody. Some manufacturers may use the term to imply that the product will not mouldy, or is harmless. The term however, is more commonly used to describe ingredients which are extracted directly from plants or animal products, as opposed to being produced synthetically.

But in what concentration the "natural" ingredient occurs - Whether it's 100%, 80% or just 50% - is anyone's guess. As far as allergies or irritations go, "natural" is no better then synthetic. Some natural ingredients in cosmetics can cause allergic reactions. If you have an allergy to certain plants or animals, you could have an allergic reaction to cosmetics containing these ingresients.
