Skin Cancer

From the time of Cleopatra, beauty has been a major issue for both men and women, year after year the concept change, fashions change, but if the need to look good and feel beautiful is the same.

Give me 15 minutes to give a powerful reason not to use beauty products with chemicals. Many beauty industry still use in their products, substances or components that can damage our chemistry helps health.

Although there has been a concern to find lead in some lipsticks, recent studios, still prove the existence of this element of danger to health.

Breathing and through our skin absorb more toxins than any other form. Remember our skin is the largest organ we have, is what protects us, and therefore is the more we care for and protect ourselves course.

Know how many personal care products need on average a day with chemical contents …?

Studies 9 products used daily for personal use, where we are exposing to 126 chemicals. Wuuao!, That if exposed to any type of cancer. And every day new toxic chemicals, according to the UK, around 600.
