| Résumé : |
People's perception of natural is an interesting one — namely if it is natural then it must be good. This is particularly true of the cosmetic consumer. Certain aspects of the media deplore the use of preservatives in our cosmetics. Yet how would they feel about the presence of mould ? It is alter all natural but I suspect it would be an unwelcome addition to your favourite face cream.
Psychologically we are geared to believe that natural is always the best option. This is probably due to our associations with food — we know that fruit is good for us therefore fruit extracts, with their essential vitamins, are good for our hair and skin. This is of course true but marketing stories often lead us to believe that something is more natural than it really is. We have all seen adverts for a cosmetic where the advertised product is placed in beautiful natural surroundings and we are told how this product contains some beneficial natural ingredient. The inference is that this is a natural product. While it does contain one or more natural materials to fit with the marketing story, in most cases it will have them at a low percentage while the bulk of the product is composed of synthetics. |
