Why is Organic Face Cream More Expensive?

When I recently purchased some organic face cream as a gift for my wife I noticed a marked difference in the price, compared to the ordinary run of the mill creams. I discounted the fact that maybe because it was better rather too quickly. With many material things that you can touch and feel you can be a pretty good judge of the quality of what you are examining or looking at. Not so easy is it with personal care products I thought, as all you have in front of you is a nice looking jar or tub which may be inside a nice box.



So, the task of assessing a jar of organic face cream has to be done in a different manner. How about we take a look at its list of ingredients for a start. Be careful, as some products which boast of being made from natural ingredients still contain non natural elements like fragrances. I have known some of these to have adverse effects on people with certain skin types. My research into what constitutes good quality ingredients that I know to be of benefit to the user when included in a face cream includes  one in particular. It's called Phytessence Wakame and it was a constituent of a jar of antioxidant face cream, organic in origin, that I tried.



This substance is a natural extract taken from sea kelp that is found in Japan. The important bit to remember is that it prevents a bodily enzyme from breaking down something known as hyaluronic acid, so halting those visible signs of aging. It seems even clinical trials have backed this up this claim, so I  always look for this ingredient when I am label looking.



Knowing that Phytessence Wakame is probably not cheap to extract I'm then more aware of why organic face creams with this ingredient inside do cost more.
