Healthy Skin

Summary: Some of the most best beauty secrets were found thousands of years ago.  They did not have any chemicals to use to make them pretty.  Now we use different chemicals or formulas to make many different beauty products.  Some of these products are not healthy for our skin.  Before you buy a product you should check what’s going in and on your skin.  Some people call it smart beauty.  Here are three facts that shouldn’t be in or on your skin.  Parabens, they’re a preservative linked to a hormone disruption, which has many side affects.  Fragrances can disrupt your endocrine system.    Talc can irritate the skin.  These are just three out of many that you should watch for.  

Critique: Beauty products can be very helpful to your skin.  But not all are healthy for.  The chemicals in some of these products can really give you problems.  That is why we need to look at the product, see what is in it, then if it is good you can buy it knowing that the product will not harm your skin. 

Impact:  These products have changed our community.  They think that to be beautiful they need good, expensive products that will make them look gorgeous.  But the truth is that you don’t need products to make your self-beautiful because you were already made beautiful.
