EWG COSMETIC DATABASE

 

Skin Deep Cosmetic Skin Database

I learned about this website about 4 years ago when I really wanted to start taking control over my skin. It is a really helpful website a lot of people should know about and take into consideration before buying a product.

On this website it rates different products and brands on a scale from 1 to 8. 1 being good for the skin and chemical free, and 8 being dangerous and harmful to your body. This website helps to give people solutions to protect themselves from potentially toxic chemicals in personal care and body chemicals. 

You can search any product or brand name into the search bar and every product will appear with a rating. Using this website has helped me choose which products will work well for my skin as anything that is highlighted in green will be less harmful.  I wanted to make blog dedicated to this website to make people aware so they can make better choices of what products they are putting on their skin. In doing this it can help to find alternatives of products that may be high in chemicals. Taking care of your skin is important and it starts with knowing what you are putting onto your face and body. 

Try it for yourself and see what rating your everyday products are!!

L'OREAL TRUE MATCH FOUNDATION!

Image
    Hi Guys!!! This post is going to be about the oldie but a goodie L’Oréal True Match Foundation!! This foundation is the first foundation product I have ever used that has never broke my eczema out and has never gave me any reaction at all. I first tried this foundation when I was 15 and I have never turned back since. I remember going into Boots and swatching it for the first time. I’m no expert when having to describe what foundation is supposed to feel like, but to me this is what it was supposed to feel like. This foundation glides on the skin and has a medium coverage but can also be buildable to suit the coverage your feeling. On good skin days, all you need is 2 pumps and it gives your face a medium coverage. However, on those annoying days where you wake up to find a spot that creeped up in the middle of the night, you can build up the amount and still look flawless. It feels lightweight on the skin, and it never feels like you are wearing anything on your face. T...

TANTASTIC !

Hey again! When it comes to sensitive skin, finding a tan that works right for you can always be hard. Trust me, I have tried every tan, from Primark’s £3 tan to expensive high street tan that costs £30 a bottle. It is always a hit and miss, scared to try in case it breaks you out or even just turns a green colour and doesn’t apply well. The first tan that it is my go-to favourite is the Sunkissed tan. This is a drug store tan and is only £5.99. You would think for a tan this cheap in price, it wouldn't be as good as the high-end priced tan. However, that is not the case. This tan glides on perfectly leaving no streaks. Often times tan leaves a sticky trace, however this tan dries instantly and when washed gives a nice golden brown Sunkissed look.  With this tan it says on the bottle it has 0% parabens, sulphates, and silicones. It's also made with 95% natural ingredients, which is amazing for people with sensitive skin. This Sunkissed tan with the green lid is infused with...
