Go Green In Your Beauty Routine
From body washes, to shampoos, condition-ers and deodorants, everyone uses personal care products almost daily. But have you ever thought how harmful those chemicals (in personal care products) are for your skin? According to a study, women apply 168 chemicals on their skin everyday and men apply 84. “Every beauty cream or product contains certain amount of chemicals but it depends on the product. Some creams may contain more chemicals than others. Creams which claim to lighten pigmentation and fairness creams should be avoided as much as possible. If we use a product containing chemical obviously it will result in damaging our skin in the long term,” says Dr. Geeta Garg, a noted dermatologist based in Chandigarh.
With increased awareness among people, there are certain beauty products in market now that claim to contain ‘natural’ ingredients. But the question is- how do you know whether the product is completely natural, non -toxic, safe and reliable? So better be safe and opt for some homemade treatments!
Japneet Dhaliwal guides you about the various ways you can go green with your beauty routine.
