Which path do you choose? (Extended)

Many of you who come across this blog may feel the same way I do...
Have you ever took the time to look past the pretty, glittering package of your newly purchased makeup, or beauty products and took notice of the ingredients? Chances are, you probably can't even pronounce most of the ingredients at first glance!  What do they mean?  Many of us don't know.
Our skin is our largest organ; it absorbs everything that we put on our bodies.  Therefore, it is very important that we are fully aware of what we are absorbing through our skins if we so choose.
We should be aware of what we put on our bodies as well as in our bodies.  Our bodies cannot break down inorganic minerals, or inorganic compounds.  If these ingredients are present in our beauty products and even our food, whatever we do not excrete will be deposited and accumulated over time into the joints, organs, and arteries.  This accumulation could lead to calcification, hardening of the arteries and organs, according to many studies.
A good site that I've been using for a long time now in order to rate my cosmetics, products and ingredients is: cosmeticdatabase. com
All that glitters is not gold!
A lot of people invest time and money fixing up their superficial appearance while neglecting their inner health, their inner well- being, which most of us have done at some point and time in our lives.  I believe that true beauty starts from within.  If we are healthy on the inside, from what we eat, use on our bodies and even our very thoughts, it will definitely radiate on the outside:-)  We all have our own path which we must choose, let's choose the right one!
