It’s true what they say; when you look good, you feel good.  It works the other way around too.  Start with beautiful natural and organic products that do no harm to you, others or the environment.

1 - Better Hair Days

2 - Love the Skin You’re In

3 - Let Your Fingers Do the Talking

Zoya Nail Polish has been making natural nail products for salons since 1986, back when green was just a color. Today, you can find a full line of professional quality colors that are Toluene, Formaldehyde, Camphor and DBP (dibutyl phthalate) free.

4 - Smell Me Now

When it comes to conventional perfume, you can get more than you bargained for in that little bottle. An analysis of the chemical contents of products reveals that the innocuous-looking “fragrance” often contains chemicals linked to negative health effects. Check ingredient labels carefully, or search Skin Deep to find products that do not list “fragrance” as an ingredient.

My new favorite oil based perfume made with natural and organic ingredients and is never tested on animals is from:

MBeze Natural Skin Care and Cosmetics - Founder Marybeth launched 6 months ago and offers a beautiful line of natural perfume and body mist in 7 yummy scents.

We can easily get caught up in our to-do-lists and forget about the essential space we humans need to take care of the inner and outer parts of ourselves.

You may even feel some guilt at first for taking such good care of YOU. Work right through that feeling. You’ll get used to it in no time. After all, don’t you deserve it?
