MANILA, Philippines – Organic skin care products usually come with a hefty price tag. Luckily, Watsons offers a much affordable alternative to budget-conscious Pinays who want to go green.
Synthetic products usually contain harmful ingredients like parabens, mineral oil, and silicone to extend its shelf life and prevent bacteria growth. While some of these ingredients help remove excess oil and dirt to your hair, leaving it shinier and smoother, they may also cause irritation, dryness, and even strip out your skin’s natural moisture.
During the Watson’s Only Natural event on October 17, author and TV host Stephanie Zubiri-Crespi and lifestyle blogger Patricia Prieto talked about the importance of checking the label on your skin care products.
Stephanie revealed that she only started to pay attention to the ingredients list on her favorite hair and skin after she became a mom.
“Before, you don’t really care, you buy stuff, it works. But then, when I became a mom, I became aware of how much toxins really goes into your body. First it starts with food, then you realize, skin pala absorbs everything… If you don’t pay attention it will just keep building up until you get old and one day na lang you have tumor, cancer, inflammation and its caused by all these build ups.”
When it comes to natural products, Stephanie swear on the wonders of olive oil for skin care regimen.
“I always get drawn to olive oil. Even before and even someone like Giada de Laurentiis, she drinks olive oil. [You can also use it] for your stomach, for your stretch marks. Olive oil are one of the things that’s readily available and it works very well for me,” she said.
As for Patricia, argan oil is her elixir of choice.
“I like argan oil. What I do is when I get a massage, that’s the best way, [to get it into your skin]. I make it my massage oil and it feels so nice and it smells so good. My skin feels so much nicer after using it.”
Quality skin care doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. According to Stephanie and Patricia, it’s all about finding products that work for your skin type.
