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

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

If you took a poll of your family and friends and asked
them if they'd like clearer, fresher looking skin as
opposed to being glamorous with embarrassing complexion
problems, I think you'll find that most would love cleaner,
fresher, radiant looking skin. However, it doesn't have to
be one or the other. You can have both! Whatever you look
like today, once you begin taking simple steps to change
things around, there's nothing to say that you can't become
the fresh-faced, energetic and lively person that you once
were. It all starts with becoming aware and informed about
how you can change your complexion for the better.

You see, most have us have bought into the hype that in
order to have great looking skin and to feel great about
ourselves, we need to have deep pockets filled with money.
Then we can buy all the high-priced skin products out
there. And also, most of us have bought into the lie that
we need to get our self-worth based on the look and
complexion of the 'stars' who are promoting one high-priced
product after another yet are getting enormously paid for
the privilege!

Once we begin the process of taking ownership for the way
we look and the way we feel, it's true to say that the
youth, vigour and bounce can certainly return to our lives.
And, it's not as difficult or mysterious as the 'secret
potion makers' have us believe. It's your right to have
great, healthy-looking skin. And, with the right guidance
and the right help and instruction, it can be just around
the corner for you , no matter how you presently rate your
skin condition.

It all begins with a shift of mind, and a difference in
thinking. Not all of us are blessed with good features and
excellent bone structure. However, we can have radiant
complexions and super smooth skin by applying the right
moisturisers, eating the right foods, and thinking positive
thoughts. Looking good is not as difficult or mysterious
as the 'secret potion makers' would have us believe.
