The best thing is to look natural, but it takes makeup to look natural!
We women love to look perfect all the time and why not? When nature gives us flaws, smart women like us go a step further ahead to beat nature at its own game by covering all those flaws with makeup. These amazing beauty treats not only hide our imperfections but also transform us to ordinary next door girls to glamorous women.
So, we have a dozen products to give you pouted lips, glossy hair, striking eyes and blushed cheeks. Ladies, are we inviting death a little faster in our quest to look young and beautiful? Did you know that you are absorbing five pounds of chemicals a year?Cancer causing compounds in your creams and lotions to arsenic in eye shadows all find a way through your body.
The lip glosses are flavored with yummy strawberries and peaches and you end up rolling your tongue over your lips and over a period of time, you have a dozen chemicals glossing inside your tummy as well!!
The deodorants, hairsprays, lipsticks, mascaras all come loaded with chemicals, more particularly parabens which act as preservatives to extend the shelf life of the cosmetics.
The chemical structure of these parabens is similar to female hormone oestrogen, which reacts with the body increasing the risk of breast cancer in women and affecting the reproductive functions in men.
The antibacterial soaps that claim to kill bacteria contain triclosan, a chemical which is known to cause cold sweats and circulatory problems. The lotions that promise silky and velvety texture contain phthaltes, which are known carcinogens, damage the liver, kidneys, lungs and the reproductive system. The eye make up you use to create those smoky eyes contain arsenic that is carcinogenic.
Imagine the deadly ‘cocktail of chemicals’ that you are feeding your tummy unknowingly. Sounds scary, isn’t it?
Of course, women can’t do without makeup and can’t expect them to stop using it; dump those deadly jars and try organic and natural cosmetics that are a lot of companies offer.
The quote now changes to “The best thing is to look natural, but it takes natural makeup to look natural‘

We all know that our make up kit which is full of products that make us look more beautiful is in fact full of deadly chemicals. Right? I agree that women can’t do without makeup but don’t you think its time to realize that we should change our make-up kit items from chemical-loaded products to organic and natural products. Why not wear a make-up that makes us look beautiful without making our bodies a ‘cocktail of chemicals’.
