I found this today while doing some research on toxicity in skin care. When I tell you Sephora is the house that cancer built, YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! Sorry ladies, but the FDA is not regulating chemicals in beauty products! Even if they were, it would be questionable- just think of all the hazardous side effects of prescription medication approved by the FDA.

Anyway, You are Welcome! Use this site to enter in a product to see how DEADLY IT IS or ISN’T!!!

Everyone now knows that breast cancer is DIRECTLY linked to Beauty Products!!! DIRECTLY! 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed, so you better get your shit together and educate yourself, PRONTO!

Print this list out and bring it with you the next time you shop for makeup, skincare or shampoo! 90% of my products contained one or more of these chemicals. Since I have cut them out, I have no more period cramps, pms, or sore breasts! These chemicals mimic estrogen production in your body aiding tumor growth and creating female reproductive problems and diseases!

Hey, look on the bright side, NO MORE IMPULSE BUYING cute packaged chemical laden products! Now it is a chore to find safer products, you will have fewer, save money and be much healthier! http://www.nobreastcyst.com/xeno.html

It’s hard to believe it’s that time of the year again… The trees are lit, Rudolph is on the tube and I can smell the eggnog. But the best part of the holiday season can be found in your local department stores cosmetic department.

Ladies this is THE time to get out and get shopping.  Wether you are looking for gifts for others or you simply want to spoil yourself, now is the time to do it.  Virtually every line is in gift!!! Yes girls, this means mini mascaras, lipsticks and trial size tubes of skin care a plenty!!

Bloomies, for instance,

Bobbi Brown: Tube Tint (lipgloss) Trio, including Cherry Tint, Blossom Tint and Twilight Shimmer, all full-sized with SPF 15. Yours for just $28.  Maybe you need brushes, usually a more pricey (yet imperative) investment, for $55  (also Bobbi), you can have the chrome mini brush set, including the cute chrome zip around brush bag, Mini Ultra FineEyeliner Brush, new Mini Angle Eyeshadow Brush and Mini Face Blender Brush.  This is a great deal because Bobbi Brown brushes, in my opinion are top of the line.  In addition the small size of the brushes enclosed in the case make it is to travel with your tools. Lancome offers up a beautiful Eyeshadow/blush palet in plum or earth tones.  That is a $78 value, yours for $39.50!!!  Dior’s Deluxe Makeup palette with travel size favorites for eyes lips and face. Includes and a mirror in a black patent case with signature “D” hardwear. An absolutely great gift for any queen and under $100!!!!

Any store you walk in to right now will be offering deals like these.  They are crazy with free gifts and gift sets! I only mentioned a few from ONE store!!!!  Run dont walk to your fave store today and treat yourself and the ones you love with some makeup baby!!!!
