MojoSpa owner and beauty expert Amanda Kezios joined me to discuss the importance of using natural beauty products and cosmetics to avoid exposing your body to carcinogenic chemicals often that are found in conventional makeup. We also gave away one of her newest products from the Go Green line to a viewer in the chat room.
Here are three beauty tips from Amanda:
1. Titanium Dioxide is one of the gentlest sunscreens available on the market and a good option for people looking for a "chemical-free" sunscreen this summer.
2. Moisturize all skin types and beware of avoiding oil-based products because you think they'll make you break out. Some oil is good for your skin. You don't want to dry it out.
3. Apply facial cleanser directly to the face, rather than lathering it on your hands. Sometimes the best ingredients get absorbed into your palms before they have a chance to do their job.
