Greetings friends of @beentrepreneur
I would like to share with you some ideas and experiences about natural cosmetics in my environment.
As we see in our daily lives,natural cosmetics have become a worldwide trend. Daily, we receive advertisements from brands and more people are joining in the utilization of the resources that Mother Earth has provided for us. It really is noticeable as a growing market.
Among these offers are products made from active principles of plants or some of their parts.Among them are essential oils, raw materials for artisanal soaps, among others linked to hygiene and personal care.
The certainty of the damage that aggressive chemicals cause to health in everyday use products; in addition to rejection, has driven research that supports the harmlessness of other formulations.
In our present time of so much information,we have learned about these effects. We have made it a practice to pay attention to the data on labels that we previously ignored. Sometimes we see products that suppose a certain natural ingredient and in reality it is minimal.
Natural cosmetics have ceased to be an alternative option to become the preferred one of thousands of people each year. This has brought to the present accumulated ancestral knowledge stored in cultures, some millennial. In Cuba,as a business model, it has spread from one end of the archipelago to the other. And it gains popularity among target audiences of various ages, but mainly female. There are experts who assure that the main demands for so-called natural cosmetics come from people who have a culture about it.And, perhaps, also a concern for the environment.
However, in my country this is part of the traditions. Having been away for decades from the influences of global brands, we had to make do with what we had on hand. Later, for economic reasons, we turned to natural solutions. A necessity and learning that have become sedimented. Since I was little,my mother applied, for example, aloe vera and coconut oil to my hair to achieve softness and shine, eliminate dandruff, etc. Also vinegar and lemon. In adolescence, I used honey for my face. And so I grew up with that type of customs, which I later reproduced with my daughters.
One of the brands in my city that enjoyed notable acceptance was Papaya&Banana. Among its creators was @iriswrite. At the beginning, it offered artisanal soaps based on glycerin, with scents and an enviable presentation. Then other options followed, but that was their star product. They were sought after by the growing clientele. There are other stores that are slowly gaining followers.Such is the case of Naturana, which recently turned two years old. Masks, oils, soaps and creams are in high demand.
The owner of the venture assures that this is the cosmetics of the future, because it is focused on a consciousness of well-being. And, in her case, they are also interested in promoting a healthy, sustainable lifestyle that respects the environment. In her store, personalized information is also offered for each client.
Grandmothers' secrets come to life with modern and attractive packaging. Social networks contribute to sharing knowledge and marketing. We are living through a transformation of consumption habits, in which the natural is conquering the lead.

A diario nos llegan anuncios de marcas y se suman más personas al aprovechamiento de los recursos que la madre tierra ha dispuesto para nosotros. Realmente se nota como un mercado en crecimiento.
Entre esas ofertas se encuentran los productos elaborados a partir de principios activos de plantas o alguna de sus partes. Entre ellos están los aceites esenciales, materias primas para jabones artesanales, entre otros vinculados con la higiene y el cuidado personal.
Una de las marcas en mi ciudad que gozó de notable aceptación fue Papaya&Banana. Entre sus creadoras estuvo @iriswrite. Al inicio ofertaba jabones artesanales a base de glicerina, con olores y una presentación envidiable. Luego le siguieron otras opciones, pero aquel era su producto estrella. Eran perseguidos por la creciente clientela. Existen otras tiendas que poco a poco ganan adeptos. Tal es el caso de Naturana, que cumplió dos años recientemente. Las mascarillas, aceites, jabones y cremas tienen amplia demanda. * *

Y, en su caso, les interesa promover además un estilo de vida saludable, sostenible, que respete el medio ambiente. En su tienda, además se ofrece una información personalizada para cada cliente. * *
