Frankly speaking, many people suffer from allergies or sensitive reactions due to chemical additives in commercial cosmetics, and to name some; synthetic fragrances and parabens are actually on the list.

• Synthetic Fragrances can cause dizziness, rashes, headaches, and/or skin irritations in susceptible individuals. And;
• Parabens (methyl, butyl, propyl, ethyl) are used to inhibit microbial growth to extend the shelf life of the product.

Be smart upon choosing beauty products, don't just buy because it is cheap or it's on sale... The more you use it the more prone you are to skin irritation.

In reality, we don't really know what we are putting on to our delicate skins, or to our hair because we're not chemistry experts.

• Read the label on any product that you are thinking of purchasing - ***note: the first ingredient listed on any label is the most active component used in making the product.
• Commonly you will find that the first listed on any label are; water, mineral oil, alcohol and witch hazel. As you can see, none of it is expensive, nor helpful in certain situations. --- Alcohol and witch hazel are too drying for some skin types, while mineral oil are large molecules that can clog the skin's pores. The prize of the products only became high due to advertising, packaging, and other additives.
• Visit a natural foods store (a pro-natural or herbal store where you can save your money), the price is actually high but more rational than buying a commercial product.
  

Natural beauty comes from within, you only need to make healthy choices to have a good life...

But the world has so many things to offer which really confuses us to go for the natural way in taking care of our skins... Millions of ads actually tells us that we cannot have a pleasing appearance unless we buy commercial products. Well in fact, there are lot of ways to attain healthy and good looks without purchasing those products.

To conclude, "Less effort, Less tendency of getting side effects, Lot more savings!"

Being Healthy and beautiful doesn't need so much effort on putting on make-ups...

To stay fit, you *need to eat a healthy and balanced diet, and supposedly you need to live a healthy lifestyle to go with that...

There are lot of beautiful or let's say good looking men and women, yet not all of them is healthy... And on the other hand, there are lot of healthy men and women however some of them don't really look good,hmm.. don't ask me about that 'coz i don't know the answer either...Joke aside!!!hehe...

Did you know?

In Koine Greek, being beautiful was thus associated with "being of one's hour". A ripe fruit (of its time) was considered beautiful, whereas a young woman trying to appear older or an older woman trying to appear younger would not be considered beautiful.

Do you agree on that? I am not a Greek but I believe on that... Many old people in the Modern World that we have now prefer to undergo some facial and body operation or treatment for them to look young.

But of course, why not as long as you can afford to spend cash on that.
