So I started using some new skin care products, and they’re made from seaweed. Yes, seaweed! After all my days at the beach in the youth, I never thought I’d be rubbing the wet goop I wouldn’t even WALK through on my face, but it’s good for you! There are a ton of natural skin care products out there just like the seaweed product I’m using. Another one I saw was made using rosemary, and another contained lavender. This natural skin care podcast, from Whole Foods, really explains how natural products can help you to heal, and why natural products are better for you, as well as the environment. You’ll learn to read labels to see what’s REALLY in that cream you’re slathering on your skin, and how to use natural products to look and feel great. (For example, with my oily combination skin, I could use witch hazel as a toner, instead of buying a pricy product from the beauty counter at the department store. And patchouli can accelerate the healing process when you break out! If you can stand the smell…LOL)
I personally think it’s neat that a grocery store is taking the time to educate consumers about why their products are superior, and how they can help people. Most companies are only interested in making money, and not educating people on how to care for themselves, naturally. This is just one of many podcasts coming from Whole Foods, and I look forward to seeing more! I’m definitely one who would eat better and do things to change how I buy products if I knew how they affected me in the long run.
