Good question; I guess I compared the local products with the products from other countries I used to use; for example, all these so-called " organic skincare brands" in the EU or USA are mostly just a fancy marketing strategy when many products in Turkiye are naturally organic, and directly from nature.

The second thing is if you think long term, e.g. buying a hand-woven scarf with stories behind it that can be used for up to 10 years, that's like a steal 👀
