What Are Those Products On Your Dressing Table Really Doing To Your Face And Complexion?

by Maureen Lewis

If you look in your bathroom cabinet or on your dressing table, you will notice the number of high-priced skin products, creams, moisturisers, toners… you name it, that are residing there. It’s not wrong to say, that if you were to add up the price of all the products, it’d run into many hundreds, if not thousands of pounds. How did looking good get to be so expensive?

Well, what you really ought to know is that you are paying an enormous amount for the advertising of any beauty product, the celebrity who may be endorsing it and the whole PR surrounding it. So, when you see all these products stacked up in your house (and maybe even your friends’ and relatives’ houses) what you should probably be doing is getting out your calculator and seeing how much is being spent. Most likely, you’d be shocked at how much you’ve spent.

A dramatic way to change things is simply to use a few natural products, to follow certain techniques and tips and get a little smarter about your own beauty routine and how to treat your complexion. However, the problem is that the lure of a big glitzy style advertising promotion is almost certain to get our attention. What a rip-off it all is.

Quite frankly, there are a number of low cost products and natural ingredients you’d normally find in your kitchen that would be more beneficial to the complexion than the high priced, chemical-infested products you find for sale. Items such as vinegar, honey, yoghurt, carrot, olive oil are all available at your local supermarket and if you apply the ingredients in the right way, you’ll see a freshness and radiance in your complexion that you just wouldn’t believe.

For example - did you know that you can use honey to bring an imbedded pimple to a head? Just cover the blemish with a dab of honey and place a Band-Aid over it before you go to bed. The honey kills the bacteria and speeds healing. Once you know certain little secrets, you too will be on the road to PERFECT SKIN. And, you’ll find that you’ll no longer be tempted by the lure of glitzy-style advertising and all those high-priced potions and lotions.
