Why Wildcrafted Skincare Is Better Than Organic Skincare
Wildcrafted skincare products are genuine Earth magic to the last drop. But, the building blocks of our formulas are just as important as the formulas themselves. The revitalizing effects of Good Medicine’s products start with each ingredient at its roots—literally. When indulging in Good Medicine products, whether a tonic, a moisturizer, or anything in between, you’re getting a taste of truly wildcrafted skincare. So what does “wildcrafted” skincare mean, and how does it compare to other clean, natural, or organic skincare ingredients or products?
The Difference Between Organic Skincare, Wildcrafted Skincare, and More
Popular terms are often used in the skincare industry, yet, many of us aren’t fully aware of their meaning. Here is what some of the top skincare buzzwords mean to help enlighten you:
- Natural skincare uses naturally occurring ingredients found in nature
- Clean skincare is free from toxic ingredients
- Organic skincare is made without chemical additives like GMOs, pesticides, or other synthetic ingredients like dyes or fragrances
While all these things are important, we discovered a way to take them to the next level. Combining the ideas of natural, clean, and organic skincare ingredients, our wildcrafted skincare ingredients add a beautiful layer of wholesome rawness to enhance the healing powers of natural, clean, and organic ingredients.
- This skincare is picked and prepared by hand, directly from Mother Earth, and only includes the most healing and healthy ingredients we can find
Wildcrafted skincare isn’t mass-produced. It is a special, small-batch, made-with-love process that allows us to pay attention to the details. With every scoop of sand, every handful of juniper berries, and every extraction of our magical desert tincture, we transform the desert into wonderful potions for you to enjoy. We’re not just clean or organic, we’re taking key ingredients found in the environment around us to infuse your skincare routine with ingredients as natural, raw, and genuine as possible. Along with our wildcrafted ingredients, we also use organic, certified organic, kosher, and natural ingredients to create our products with your health—and the environment—in mind.
Our Ingredients, Our Magic: The Secret’s Out
We believe in using only the best bioavailable ingredients to create a beautiful synergy between the skin and our formulas. This means your body recognizes our ingredients and knows exactly what to do with them to promote skin healing. Organic skincare doesn’t always prioritize bioavailability, but because skin healing is our top priority, your body loves our ingredients, helping your skin naturally absorb all of their healing qualities. This is another reason wildcrafted skincare goes deeper than organic skincare products do, and why wildcrafted ingredients are your skin’s best friend.
We want to be as transparent as possible so you know exactly what’s going on your skin. We take pride in our amazing ingredients, and want you to celebrate the benefits these ingredients bring! On our site and on our packaging, you’ll notice a list of hand-picked and ethically sourced components included in the product along with our wildcrafted ingredients. For example, if we take a look at some of the ingredients in Clarity Awakening Face Cream, we find something that looks like this:
Aqueous infusion of desert sage**, juniper berry**, chaparral**, dandelion* & alfalfa*. Olive oil* rice powder (non-GMO), vitamin E T-50, coenzyme Q10, sugar cane*, wild raw honey, wasabi extract, vitamin B3, CO2 calendula extract*. Rose attar, gardenia attar, juniper berry EO
*Organic **Wildcrafted
EO: Essential Oil
The ingredients are followed with a double asterisk if they’re wildcrafted, one star if organic, and labeled with an “EO” if it is an essential oil. Our wildcrafted ingredients like desert sage or juniper berries bring a wealth of healing properties to our formulas, so be on the lookout for wildcrafted elements like these. They come straight from our beloved desert to you without toxic, synthetic, or inflammatory agents.
Along with our organic and wildcrafted ingredients, many of our products will display a label that says they are naturally gluten-free, free from animal testing, and made in the USA. There’s always a reason to love these products even more.
