How many chemicals are in your children's shampoo?

Do you buy based on the bottle, the smell, the packaging or the advertisement?

In the traditional distribution method, the cost of any consumable product is made up of a few key factors:-

a) 10% the actual product contents itself
b) 5% r & d
c) 5% packaging - box & container
d) 5% free gifts included
e) 15% advertising cost and celebrities employed
f) 30% sales commissions.
g) 20% admin, wharehousing & distribution
h) 10% profit

With just 10% of what you pay, going into the actual product, now you know why counter / shelf brands are so expensive and fail to deliver!

In the new direct to consumer distribution method, the cost breakdown of the product is :-

a) 20% the actual product itself
b) 5% r & d
c) 50% sales commissions, advertising, packaging, wharehousing, distribution
d) 15% admin
e) 10% profit

Now you know why products sold through word of mouth advertising have a much better quality and you can see and feel the results quickly.

Some products like watches are cars are image based and you pay for the brand name and advertising .

While other consumable products should be selected based on safety, ingredients and science.

So go check your labels today for fillers, colours, chemical fragrances, animal fats like lanolin, alcohol or preservatives like formaldehyde. All these ingredients cause irritation, allergies and sensivite scalp and skin.

It's time to choose Be skincare and Be haircare. Using pure plant botanicals & vitamins with the nanomin and soy-active technology, it's even safe for your babies.
