OUR INGREDIENTS

WHY NATURAL AND ORGANIC?

There are so many good reasons to use natural and organic ingredients in making our products. This reduces our exposure to harsh chemicals like parabens, benzoic acids, petroleum bases, artificial fragrances and colourants, and synthetic preservatives. By using organic ingredients, we are promoting bio-diversity and encouraging good farming practices, which in turn creates a better environment.

At Deserving Health, we strive to source from farmers who grow the finest ingredients that are certified organic. These farmers do not use any toxic synthetic pesticides, artificial fertilizers, unnecessary hormones or antibiotics in their farming practices. This means restoring, maintaining, and enhancing the soil as well as the ecosystem.

By embracing your skin care and personal care products with natural and organic ingredients, you and your family are creating healthy benefits for both body and planet. These choices can help reduce the occurrence of worrisome rashes, hives and irritations on your skin. And the planet will be a better place for generations to come.
