Botox, Vitamin C injections or some cosmetic surgery

The price of beauty and the risks involved in staying young, keeps going up day by day.

Just remember, it's cheaper and much easier to prevent pre-mature ageing, than to try to fix the damage after it's done.

So to prevent pre-mature ageing, make sure everyday, you

a) use a SPF46 UVA / UVB physical sunblock daily, ( E International Sunblock)
b) use a day and night moisturiser to protect and repair (Green Tea Oil)
c) clean your face using a gentle cleanser - without chemicals, colours, fragrances or preservatives (Be Creamy Cleanser)

Only if you can do this, will you can grow old gracefully and not need any botox, injections or dangerous cosmetic surgery.

The ugly side of local cosmetic producers

Beware - local cosmetic producers have switched to another equally dangerous chemical called hydroquinone - to give women a fair and unblemished look, reported the Star this week.

Known locally as susuk emas or golden needle, this chemical is sold through several beauty houses in Malaysia.

Another chemical Azelaic acid which is used to treat severe acne and acne vulgaris, could cause health complications, severe skin damage including skin cancer.

Please do read the product label, but then again, with fly by night companies, what's on the label may not necessarily be in the bottle and what's in the bottle, may not be on the label.

Invest in quality products for your skin, especially products that are made in USA and used by Hollywood actresses. USA made products are highly regulated and certainly of much higher standard than products made in Taiwan, China or Malaysia.

Be skincare and Dr Berman's skin treatment products, are made exclusively in USA, and Green Tea Oil is made and patented in Japan and guaranteed to work in 60 days. Contains all natural plant ingredients without any chemicals, preservatives, artificial colours and fragrances, or animal products.

Quality is determined by what's on the label is in the bottle and what's in the bottle is on the label. Yes it may cost a bit more than a local product, but then again, your face and body is priceless. So don't look and feel cheap , using cheap products that are dangerous for your face and body.
