Pure and Simple organic perfume :)

So i have already spoke about why we need to avoid the chemicals in perfume,well i found this super awesome CANADIAN site that sells a variety of ORGANIC perfume! How awesome is that ?? Pretty awesome i think!!
here is the site www.pureandsimple.ca


They have a variety of organic products for you to browse.

I think this one looks amazing and i will order it 

This is there most popular scent. The soft alluring Lavender is deepened by base notes of Sandalwood, thyme, rosemary.

A calming scent, popular for both men and women, is distilled natural from the lavender, from the altitude of the mountains of Provence. A good general scent to have for those who want to be quietly noticed.

This one looks great too

"Hesperidee relates to the 3 nymphs that were responsible for tending the apple orchard of Hera, the Goddess of Roman Gods.
This unisex scent is a fresh collection of citrus with spices all in a base of sandalwood. An excellent romantic scent for a quiet exotic occasion.
A perfect gift for that quietly romantic person.


They are also only $45.95 cheaper than most perfumes out there and better for you!

Perfumes' chemical safety unknown!!! PLEASE READ IMPORTANT STUFF!

Soo i was watching the news yesterday and came across this and thought i should share the info here,because a lot of us wear perfume so this hits home!!

(taken from CBS NEWS)
"Top-selling fragrances contain chemicals that can trigger allergic reactions or disrupt hormones but are not listed on labels, according to a new report calling for changes in federal regulations."
", assessed 17 fragrances bought in both countries that were tested by an independent laboratory in California. They included Britney Spears' Curious, Calvin Klein Eternity, Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce and Old Spice body spray."
The tests found a dozen or more chemicals not listed on labels, multiple chemicals that can trigger allergic reactions or disrupt hormones, and substances that have not been assessed for safety by the beauty industry's self-policing review panels, the groups said. 
The findings in the report included:

• An average of 10 sensitizing chemicals that can trigger allergic reactions such as headaches, wheezing, asthma, infant diarrhea and vomiting and reduced pulmonary function were found in each product.
• An average of four hormone-disrupting chemicals were found in each product. The chemicals may mimic the hormone estrogen.

So Basically what its saying is that the ingredient list is USELESS it does not even tell what is in it!!

Are you rolling yet ???

Okay ladies today i want to review L'oreals new TRUE MATCH ROLLER FOUNDATION

At first it looks like it might not work or would be hard to use right??

Well you are sooo wrong!! Its the most easy thing to use and it actually WORKS awesome!

It is nice creamy foundation and with it comes this thing that looks almost exactly like a paint roller!! So no need for a brush ,sponge or your fingers.It makes appplication flawless ! You ask how?Well when you use the roller it creates the most even finish ever!! It even works around the nose and eyes and using a light pressure. It is also OIL FREE!And because its true match its not hard to find your perfect shade.

Also i think its just a fun way to apply your foundation,but one thing to be careful a little goes a long way,start with less makeup on the roller and add as needed :)

PS-It retails for about $14.99 but is on sale at Walmart for about $12.98 

FYI! Beware of those in store testers ladies!!!DONT GET HERPES !

Soo recent news from a beverly hills dermatologist is warning consumers not to use the testers on display at Sephora and other beauty stores.

She says, "If a woman has a cut on her lip and borrows lipstick from someone who has a cold sore, she'll get a cold sore. You can pass herpes [the cold-sore virus], conjunctivitis [pink eye], and all sorts of things through sharing makeup."  

Well this should be a known fact people!!!!!Stay away from those germ infested testers YUCK!

Just imagine all the dirty girls who have touched those lipsticks that have been sitting there for months and months,they probably looks something like this 

Just SAY NO TO STORE TESTERS!!

ADULT ACNE ,and how to conqueor it!

Ohh those dreaded pimples,i have had to deal with them ever since puberty ,i remember back in the day i used to use OXY pads ,they just made then even worse ackkk But after going to my Aesthetics course and learning more about what causes acne ,i found better ways to deal with it and i would love to tell you.
 
First what causes them.? Well hormones can play a big role,as you know.Im sure you notice around that time of month,a few pop up here and there ,usually on the chin! Or any big body change like having a baby or having a really stressful day.
Adult acne is caused by sebum, an oily substance produced by the skin’s sebaceous glands.  Sebum clogs pores, which attract bacteria and become inflamed.

There seems to be various products out on the market now that is suppose to treat acne.I find the products that work best contain Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid .For something more natural tea tree also helps.They are anti-bacterial and unclog pores and prevent new pimples from forming.Or if yours is really bad you can go to the doctors for antibiotics or if its super super bad there is Accutane which shrinks the oil glands from inside,but this is a last resort as it is quite harsh.


But i want to tell you about products you can buy at the store that work well here are some
This product contains 10% of Benzoyl Peroxide, so be warned, this is really strong stuff more for moderate acne and as a spot treament retails less than $7.00 normally and lasts quite awhile

For a more natural treament i really liked this one and it worked well for me

The Body Shop: Tea Tree Oil Blemish Fade Night Lotion-$18.00

Made specifically to use before bed, this lightweight serum uses the proven benefits of Tea Tree Oil to dissolve excess oil while you sleep. This will in turn help dry out your blemishes and make them heal quickly. If you have oily skin, use it all over your face before bed. If your have occasional blemishes, use it as a spot treatment before bed.

Another thing that i think is great to do is to take supplements to help internally,the ones i have been taking and i find im seeing an improvement are these about $25.00 for 60caps
