Embracing Natural Beauty: A Personal Journey

Embracing Natural Beauty: A Personal Journey

Let's start from the beginning and that is from explaining what is Natural Beauty and take you on my journey of discovery.

What is Natural Beauty and Why is it Better?

As someone who grew up in Venezuela, a country where beauty standards are incredibly high, I was immersed in a culture that placed great emphasis on appearance, fast forward a number of years and I can still see that beauty standards can be overwhelming specially with all the exposure on social media and the encouragement to use beauty filters. However, I can point to the exact time when my perspective on beauty shifted and that was when I moved to Barcelona, where the beauty standards - that I saw - were more relaxed, It was a refreshing change that allowed me to question the conventional notions of beauty.

The Changing Paradigm of Beauty: Embracing Natural Beauty

When I relocated to Ireland, I found a happy mix of beauty standards that embraced both natural and unique expressions of beauty. But the global pandemic further transformed this paradigm of beauty. As we spent more time at home, the focus shifted from heavy makeup and elaborate outfits to self-care and inner well-being. 

In this new era, the significance of using natural beauty products became even more apparent, people from all ages, genders and backgrounds now pay more attention to ingredients, and little by little people embrace that these products not only offer a healthier alternative by reducing exposure to harmful chemicals, but they also align with ethical and eco-friendly practices. Embracing natural beauty means embracing our authentic selves and honoring the beauty that radiates from within.

At Basic Senses, my passion for promoting natural beauty is reflected in every product. I carefully formulate handcrafted creations that encourage self-love and self-acceptance. I invite you to explore our collection, knowing that each product is thoughtfully created to enhance your natural beauty and embrace the unique qualities that make you who you are.

Together, let's redefine beauty standards and celebrate the beauty that comes from embracing our true selves. It's time to shine with confidence, embracing the power of natural beauty.
