Is Your Makeup Making You Fat? Three Toxic Beauty Ingredients to Avoid

A new study has found that “chemical calories” present in beauty products such as shampoo, body lotions and cosmetics can disrupt the body’s natural weight control system.

 

Did you know that your skin is your largest organ?

Studies show that in 26 seconds all the chemicals in your personal care products (makeup) go through your entire bloodstream.

From what I understand; fat is created to protect our body from toxins & impurities creating unwanted weight.

The European Union bans more than 1,400 chemicals in personal care products.  The United States bans less than 10.

THREE TOXIC BEAUTY INGREDIENTS TO AVOID

Parabens ( a widely used preservative)

Fragrance

Formaldehyde (preservative)

What’s in your products?

Be sure to check out the EWG’s Skin Deep database to research toxic chemicals that could be in your cosmetic and personal care products.

Educate yourself and do your research before you buy.  You don’t have to compromise your health for your beauty or your beauty for your health.

Did you know that women who wear makeup EARN more than women who don’t?

Four Steps to a Naturally Made up Face

Once women enter the world of work, going completely bare faced isn’t a professional option, however a natural look is.

Even out your skin color with a light application of foundation

Fill in your eyebrows and define your eyes with eyeliner and mascara

Add just enough blush so you don’t look pale

Finish the look with a little lip color or gloss

Bobbi Brown Inspired – Makeup Tips For Looking Gorgeous in Glasses

*Hey, four-eyes!

Glasses definitely make a style statement, but your eyes can get lost beneath your frames unless you adjust your makeup.

Here are my favorite ways to make your eyes pop from behind your lenses.

MAKEUP TIPS FOR GIRLS WHO ROCK GLASSES:

  • Eyeliner is key; it really adds definition from behind your lenses.
  • Always define your brows with a shadow the same shade as your hair color.  This will ensure that your glasses don’t overpower your face.
  • The glass in your frames can highlight under eye discoloration and darkness, so corrector and concealer underneath the eye and in creases is essential.
  • Waterproof mascara won’t smudge on your lenses.
  • If you have strong frames, you can get away with stronger makeup.
  • If your frames are delicate, or in a nude shade, don’t let your makeup overpower your frames.  Choose softer colors for shadow and create definition with a dark liner and mascara.
  • The color of your eye shadow shouldn’t compete with the color of your glasses.  If you want to do the same color as your frames on your eyelids, try a base hue that’s a shade lighter, and go a few shades darker for the crease color.  Finish with black liner and mascara.
  • For an easy look, go with a bold color on your lips and just corrector, concealer, and mascara for your eyes.  Put on your glasses and you’re done.

*I was 42 when I started working at MAC Cosmetics.  Yeah, 42.  Thank goodness their moto is : All ages. All races. All sexes.

I rocked the colorful eye shadows, winged liner, false lashes and loud lipsticks for five years.  The day I couldn’t read the Name on the bottom of the lipstick tube – I started to plan my retirement party.  I was already wearing contact lenses to see far and now I couldn’t see up close.  I refused to wear “cheaters” because I thought those were for old ladies.  I lost my self confidence and was afraid I’d lost my credibility.  Seeing an old woman makeup artist (wearing “cheaters”) says one of two things – “Wow! She must be an expert with tons of experience” OR “Wow! She can’t see for Sh*t and I I don’t want her doing MY makeup!”  I had no choice (in my mind) and I retired.

True Story.

I’ve come a long way since my blurred vision days at MAC and today when you see me “doing makeup” I wear funky, crazy, hipster-style “cheaters”.  I look much hipper, younger and more confident.  Bottom line… It’s all about how you SEE yourself!
