The Dangerous Truth about Perfume
We all love a good perfume…but is our perfume good for us? Harmful Side-Effects I have learned that the fragrance industry has checks and balances that are nothing but a conflict of interest. Big companies are here to make money.

Whiten your Teeth!
Whitening your teeth has become a fashion statement that seems to be here to stay. We all see the beautiful white smiles celebrities have, and we want the same bright smile too. You may have a healthy shade of white teeth, but compared to your friends and co-workers with bleached teeth, your teeth might just look yellow -but only in comparison. Cause of Discolored Teeth Simply put, colored molecules found in some foods and drinks can get absorbed in your tooth’s enamel surface. This causes your teeth to become less white with time. If you want a brighter smile, you may want to avoid red wine, coffee, tea, cigarettes, mustard, and even blueberries. Problem with Professional Teeth Whitening Most, if not all Teeth whitenings contain hydrogen peroxide. This is a harmful chemical that can destroy your gums and nerves and...

Organic Lip Balm by Dr. Bronner’s
Throw away your Chapstick, because I am going to introduce to you a new way to keep your lips hydrated and healthy. Is Chapstick bad for you? Chapstick, Smackers, SoftLips, Vaseline, Carmex, and other popular brands out there are actually something you may just want to avoid. Why? They contain Mineral Oil and Petroleum, which actually dries up your lips rather than helping them. If Chapstick causes addiction, it would be better for you to avoid it rather than keep using it. Alternative What I love about Organic Lip Balm by Dr. Bronner’s, is that is actually helps heal your lips, without causing an addiction, or a constant need to keep using it over and over again. If my lips ever feel chapped, I can use this Lip Balm a couple of times, and then that’s it. I can...

Why do I need to use SPF?
This is a question I am sure a bunch of sexy beach babes ask all the time, or at least should be asking themselves this question. “Why do I need to use SPF?” What does “SPF” Mean? Let’s start at the beginning. SPF means Sun Protection Factor. The number you see with SPF (SPF 30 for example), represents the length of time you can stay out in the sun without burning, multiplied by that number. If you normally burn after 10 minutes, you should be able to stay out in the sun (theoretically) for 300 minutes if you have SPF 30. I would recommend having a high SPF, and putting SPF on as often as you can…let’s say every hour or every other hour, depending on whether you are swimming/sweating or not. Is the Sun Good for you? The...
