Why is organic clothing better for your skin?
Organic clothing is made from natural fibres that are grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilisers, or other chemicals. These natural fibres are often softer and more comfortable to wear compared to conventional fibres that are treated with chemicals.
​
There are several potential benefits of wearing organic clothing for your skin:
​
1. Reduced irritation: Chemicals used in the production of conventional clothing can sometimes cause irritation or allergies. Organic clothing, on the other hand, is free from these chemicals, which may make it less irritating for people with sensitive skin.
2. Better for the environment: Organic cotton farming uses fewer pesticides and synthetic fertilisers, which can have negative impacts on the environment. By choosing organic clothing, you can help reduce the environmental footprint of your clothing choices.
3. Healthier for workers: Many of the chemicals used in conventional clothing production can be harmful to the workers who are exposed to them. Choosing organic clothing can help support fair labor practices and reduce the risk of workers being exposed to hazardous chemicals.

It's worth noting that while organic clothing may be more comfortable and potentially less irritating for some people, it is not necessarily "better" for everyone. Some people may not notice a difference in comfort or skin irritation between organic and conventional clothing.
