This is a beginning stage of awareness ...Hi Denise. This is a beginning stage of awareness and glad that you took the first step to opt for more natural or organic based products. May I stressed too the importance of reading the ingredients with care. Some products, though they say that it is natural, may contain some ingredients which are harmful.<br /><br />During my journey, I also learnt that natural/organic based products does not come cheap.:P Being a budget-friendly person, I won't spend more than I can afford and would only spend a little more on skincare eg serums or oils. Just trying to strike a balance.myorganicjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00696181467806967024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7978644770796785778.post-63476467247194526602012-04-11T14:08:07.634+08:002012-04-11T14:08:07.634+08:00hi I also started being coscious about the ingredi...hi I also started being coscious about the ingredients in my beauty products and I now try actively to avoid "ugly" ingredients like parabens, sulfates, I recently found out about Tetrasodium EDTA (my beloved Garnier cleanser has this! yuck), I even hate and avoid fragrance! lol. I get put off when I see "fragrance". :/ anyway, I believe for me it's a good start at least that I'm now aware and coscious and don't go and shell out money even on badget-friendly brands. (even on Pharmaceutical brands, they have ugly stuff, too.) whether it's high end or not, I've become very wary now! :)))<br /><br />oh I also agree with you about being allergic. I have broken out from natural brands (and read a lot of people break out,too) and at first I thought it was so odd but then it's logical. even natural ingredients don't agree with everyone's skin, despite all the claims of "hypoallergenic", "organic" etc.. =)Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12227597801030506892noreply@blogger.com
