100 съставки, които не искаш в твоите продукти за красота

5 comments


В търсене на няколко, открих цели 100 съставки, които нямат място в продуктите за грижа за кожата и косата, гримовете и ароматите, които използваме. 

Както в източника, от който взех тази важна информация, пише, така и аз смятам, че списъкът не трябва да остане тайна, а трябва да достигне до колкото се може повече хора. Всеки един от нас трябва да го носи със себе си и да го използва, когато избира продукти за красота.

Материалът е взет от книгата The Green Beauty Guide на Julie Gabriel, която, заедно с Green Beauty Recipes, веднага попадна в списъка ми с книги, които искам да притежавам.

Извинявам се, че не съм превела информацията, но смятам, че всеки би могъл да се справи и е по-важно да използваме имената на латиница и да ни служат по време на пзаруване.

Тук няма "реблог" бутон, но ще се радвам, ако споделите и вие този списък, за да може все повече хора да се запознаят с нещата, които вредят на здравето ни и околната среда.

  1. Напълно съм съгласна и смятам, че така трябва да стимулираме повече домашните маски. Май само там няма вредни съставки, уви... :( Защото независимо каква козметика ползваме, 100% има нещо от тези 100 съставки в нея....
