Did you know your skin is your biggest organ and is extremely porous? It literally eats what you put on it and transports about 60% into your bloodstream. About six years ago I began to think alot about the ingredients in products that I was putting on my body everyday. Perhaps I had been living under a rock (or in my Cara zone) but it wasn't until a wonderful lady I know helped me begin to look at the issue. Anyway it began a whole new journey for me and it's one I've enjoyed helping others get started on too, so drop me a line if you need help or advice! I now use earthy goodies like the black african beauty soap I mentioned yesterday, fresh aloe vera from my garden, papaya ointment and carefully selected brands for shampoos, cosmetics etc that are safety conscious but also really work! I'm going to share with you a little secret too - I'll soon be adding The Powder Room to my lines. The sumptuous and safe True Touch cosmetics which I have been using for about five years will soon be available online for all to savour. More on that on facebook - back to food....another green juice to kick today off - I think it even tasted better than yesterday! Still haven't sourced a lemon (does anyone have a little tree), you know I can often go for ages without grocery shopping especially now that our garden is producing! My poor husband often stands at the fridge complaining 'there's nothing to eat!' I think it's the male version to us girls 'I've got nothing to wear!' standing in front of our wardrobe full of clothes, which by the way leaves you with a hint on tomorrow's topic - detoxing your wardrobe, another favourite!
