New Year, Organic You?

January 26, 2018

Saying goodbye to harmful cosmetics, and hello to organic in 2018 might just help you to escape those winter blues. Not only do natural products offer amazing healing benefits to your skin and overall health and wellbeing, they are also more likely to be more ethical and kinder to the environment than their mainstream counterparts. Sadly though, it pays to be clued up when you choose to buy organic health and wellbeing products. It is possible that products can claim to be organic when they actually include little or no genuine organic content at all. That’s why, in order to ensure you that YES is as beautifully organic as we claim to be, all our products are Certified Organic by the Soil Association: Europe’s leading certification body.

Being certified means complying with strict standards covering all aspects of the processing chain so you can be 100% confident that what you are purchasing is, in fact, truly madly deeply organic. As well as living up to its organic claims, YES performs better than the market leaders, delivering exceptional results and alleviating symptoms without side-effects. So if you’re up for an organic challenge in 2018, then take a look at our top Organic Beauty Picks below for some of our favourite Certified Organic, ethical products that will pamper your skin, honour your body and help you make some great ethical and conscious swaps in your daily routine.
