Ksh 15,000 is the average amount of money a regular woman spends on beauty products during her entire lifetime, according to some sources.
And this count doesn’t include manicures, pedicures, or beauty salons. Beauty product manufacturers do everything they can to earn more and more money from their clients. But as it turns out, we don’t need all these products in the first place.
Organic beauty products are better than regular ones.
Organic beauty products are extremely popular today but it’s not quite clear when they can be considered organic and when they can’t.
There are some criteria: at least 90% of the ingredients have to be organic, received by the extraction process, and the raw materials should grow in clear fields that have all the necessary certificates.
But often, the manufacturers of these products are so focused on doing all they can to satisfy all of these conditions that they sometimes forget about the effectiveness of the products themselves. So, there’s still a big question about whether these products are effective or not.
On top of that, organic products are not equipped to deal with all of our issues. For example, non-organic beauty products have a better chance of fighting pigmentation and wrinkles and can even moisturize the skin better.
Sweating should be blocked with antiperspirants
Sweating helps our bodies to remove toxins and helps us control the temperature of our body — everyone knows this. But for some reason, the fact that sweating is an important defensive function of the body is often ignored. It is dangerous to limit sweating.
Antiperspirants limit sweating by blocking the sebaceous glands. Obviously, this doesn’t lead to anything good. Our constant usage of antiperspirants leads to big problems with our microbiome.
So, it is best if you use these products no more than 2-3 times per week and wash them off before you go to sleep. The best option is to buy non-aggressive deodorants with safe ingredients. For example, the ones made of natural mineral salt that prevent the production of bacteria and the unpleasant smell.
Massage is just a way to relax
Few people see the link between wrinkles and neck spasms. But in fact, all the human muscles are connected: if some muscles get contracted, others will relax and vice versa.
So, if a good expert works on one area of the body, a totally different area may get fixed.
For example, if you frown often, there is a high chance that the muscles near the chin will sag.
The facial muscles are directly connected with the muscles of the back of the neck, so the shape of the face can be slightly changed if these muscles are massaged.
Relaxing the muscles is the first step, making them stronger is what should follow. Face fitness with a good cosmetologist is something that every woman should at least try to do.
