We’ve all seen commercials for natural makeup. While it sounds great in theory, the price often deters us from trying it. However, you may find you actually save money by looking for makeup that uses natural ingredients versus chemicals.
Take a minute and look at the ingredients in your foundation or concealer. Do you notice a bunch of words you can’t even pronounce? Most of the ingredients are likely preservatives to extend your makeup’s lifespan. Since it’s only safe to use makeup for a set period anyway, preservatives aren’t all that necessary. Other chemical ingredients can lead to issues such as rashes, breakouts and even hormone problems.

I personally like to wear makeup with products that are safe and natural. I have been told I have great skin. I don't take long, hot showers (try to limit your showers to 10-15min. tops). If you have seen that Doctor Oz episode, it talks about the dangers of really long, hot showers. Your skin pays the price. My rule: If I cannot pronounce the product ingredient, I look it up. I like to research what I am using. I want to give my skin the respect it deserves. It is the biggest organ of your body. Treat it right! I moisturize morning and night. I use toner. I use eye cream. Ya, it seems like a lot, but it became a routine for me. I don't look it at it negatively. I see the results it is giving me. I am thankful.
