How Conventional Body Washes, Shampoos, and Shower Gels Pollute the Environment (and How Natural Elements is Different)
The beauty industry is a significant contributor to environmental pollution, with mainstream body washes, shampoos, and shower gels playing a major role. Many of these products contain synthetic chemicals and come packaged in non-recyclable plastic, causing harm to ecosystems and contributing to plastic waste. However, at Natural Elements, we take a different approach by offering products that are completely natural, eco-friendly, and safe and packaging that is completely recycled and recyclable which is better for both people and the planet.
The Problem with Conventional Body Care Products
Harmful Chemical Ingredients Most commercial body washes and shampoos contain synthetic colours, perfumes and many harsh chemicals.
Microplastics and Artificial Additives Many conventional products also contain microplastics and artificial fragrances that do not biodegrade. Microbeads, once commonly used in exfoliating body washes, are now recognized as a major pollutant in marine environments. These microplastics are consumed by marine life and can eventually enter the human food chain (source: National Geographic). The UK Victorian water process plants were never design to cope with such chemicals
Plastic Packaging Waste The majority of body washes and shampoos are sold in single-use plastic bottles, contributing to the global plastic pollution crisis. According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, only 9% of plastic waste worldwide gets recycled, with the remainder ending up in landfills or oceans, taking hundreds of years to decompose.
How Natural Elements is Different
At Natural Elements, we believe in harnessing the power of nature to create products that nourish your skin without harming the environment. Our body washes, shampoos, and shower gels are formulated with:
Natural Ingredients We use plant-based ingredients such as Natural oils, natural surfactants made from coconut, and essential oils, These natural components break down harmlessly in the environment, ensuring that no toxic residues are left behind which are gentle on the skin and biodegradable. They also work at stimulating the mind and cells, there’s nothing like a real aromatherapy shower in the morning to get you going or a relaxing aromatherapy bath in the evening. Our oils fight bacteria even viruses and of course we don’t con the need for a shampoo as well as body wash in manufacturing they are the same thing often just relabelled so you get both in the one bottle .
Eco-Friendly Packaging We are committed to reducing plastic waste by using recyclable, biodegradable, and bulk packaging options. Our bottles are made from recycled materials, and are fully recyclable.
