Hello again! Why am I writing today about aloe vera cosmetics? Well, I was rather alarmed by a newspaper feature last Saturday about the risk of skin damage through using make-up.
I don't know you (or your habits!) but if, like me, you're a woman who uses eye shadow then you'll probably be as shocked as I was to learn from experts that this is among the worst offenders in causing unsightly skin conditions.
The DAILY MAIL stated that the skin around the eyes is so sensitive that many women have allergic reactions to the strong chemicals in eye shadows, kohl pencils, mascaras and make-up remover.
This frequently leads to women having eczema or inflammation on their eyelids and nowhere else.
It was suggested that the best way to retain moisture in the tissue around your eyes is not to use cosmetics every day - or at least not those that contain strong chemicals such as preservatives which strip away the natural defences and dry out the skin.
Which brings me to the aloe vera cosmetics that I now use daily - without fear of a bad reaction.
Formulated with aloe vera to protect and moisturize, plus antioxidant vitamins, herbs and marine extracts, there are tones to suit every skin tone and every mood.
There are even seven color-coded palettes of shades for eyes, cheeks, face and lips - perfectly suited to all skin types, including sensitive skin.
With all this aloe vera on offer, why would any woman run the risk of skin-damage?
