Cosmetic products. A friend or a foe?


Most of you, like me, apply moisturizing cream before we go out in the morning or before we sleep, apply sunblock before we go out under the sun,make up, or spray deodorant to not-smell-bad.

My advise is to check the ingredients before buying the product you intend to. Why?

Several years ago, scientist found out that there were parabens inside breast tumors found in women.
Parabens can be in the form of methylparaben, proplyparaben, butylparaben (these are the more common ones)..
Apparently, parabens mimic estrogen causing the statistics of females having breast tumors and males producing less sperms to increase rapidly.

Well, all this are not 100% proven but I suggest we use less of stuff containing parabens.
Though I would love to use loads of cosmetic products to look pretty but yeah. Haha~..
