Bottling The Fountain Of Youth?

by Jen Hopkins

Being a stylist the past twelve years women often assume that I am authority on all things beauty. Being a six foot two clean cut gay male does not automatically make me an authority however, I do keep my ears open and I always pay close attention to anything that might give me the edge in my business.

A few weeks ago I was highlighting a clients hair when she begin to gossip with another stylist. She bragged about her recent 54th birthday surprise party and my jaw dropped to the floor. I have been styling this ladies hair for 5 years and always assumed she was in her very early forties.

I kept quiet for another couple minutes, but eventually I found myself dying to know her secret to looking youthful. Although I thought of face lifts and Botox right away, in the past I had been proven wrong about their success. It turns out this case was no different!

I cracked a smile to my client after getting the confidence to speak up and asked, "Girl what are you doing to keep yourself looking so young?". We both giggled a bit about it and she pulled me in towards her by my hand and said, "Do you promise not divulge my secret?" After I gave an eager silent agreement, she leaned in closer and said, "I found the fountain of youth", and I found myself laughing wholeheartedly.

My client elaborated; she told me about her success in capturing her youth by using an organic skin cream rather than the lab created skin creams she used to utilize. I was skeptical, however, I wondered if there was really that big of a difference between the two types of creams.

That night, I decided to dig up a little information on my own. Upon doing so, I found out that most skin creams used preservatives that caused inflation of price and a decrease in the quality of the cream itself; even those that used the phrase "organic" had this problem.

It turns out the company my client referred uses no potentially toxic ingredients and all of their ingredients come from certified organic farms. They do not water down even their most potent ingredients and add no colorings agents or fragrances, both of which can affect results of the product.

As such, when considering a skin cream, you should always look for any ingredients that may be harmful to your health; I've found that unless a skin cream is completely natural, it most likely will contain some. In 2004, a study was conducted that found that Prebens was a preservative used in many cosmetic products that was also found in 90% of breast cancer tumors. So, you should always look for organic skin creams as they are the most healthy, effective, and affordable option for you.
