Help the rainforest and look beautiful at the same time
Much of what we use day to day, including about 25% of all prescription drugs, comes from the Amazon rain forest. Beauty products and a solution to Amazon deforestation aren’t things we typically think of as going hand in hand. Luckily, Amazon Organics is bridging the gap. Amazon Organics offers a wide range of products including natural anti-aging and hair care. All products from Amazon organics are farmed with respect and sustainability in mind from the Amazon rain forest. So now you can use some of the most exotic and pure ingredients on the planet without worrying about the cost to the beautiful rain forest ecosystem.
Amazon organics offers products including Volumizing Shampoo, Volumizing Conditioner, Anti-Aging Serum, Night Cream, Day Moisturizing Lotion, Facial Cleanser made with active ingredients from the Amazon rainforest like Kava ,Camu, Maca, Samabaia and Jotaba; and with other ingredients like Lemongrass, Rosemary Mint and Vitamin C.

The Fountain of Youth
Aging. It’s not something we want to think about and it’s definitely something we don’t want to see when we look in the mirror. Luckily science has teamed up with nature to stave it off as long as possible. Two of the best things you can do for your skin is to use natural moisturizers & skin care and eat the right foods. So, what are the right foods?
Blueberies are natural anti-oxidants. Not only do they help you fight the physical signs of aging but they can also help you fight the diseases associate with aging, including, cancer, alzheimer’s & heart disease. These tiny little berries pack a big healthy punch!
Whole grains are fiber rich when means they are great for your tummy inside and out. A diet rich in whole grains can help keep you slim, trim and feeling healthy. They can also help fight disease such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke and colon cancer.
Red wine is not just a delicious way to finish off the day, it offers health and beauty benefits too! Diets with a limit of 5 ounces of red wine a day, it is suggested by science, will help prevent signs of aging and even cell death in the heart and brain.
In the mood for something sweet? Try digging into some dark chocolate. Yes, dark chocolate. Dark chocolate helps prevent inflammation, platelet clotting and boost brain power. And nothing says beautiful like a healthy heart and quick mind.The secrets to anti-aging aren’t all about what you eat. What you put on your skin can play a big role. As a rule, avoiding products where the ingredients list is long and with words you’ve never heard is a good start. Here are some othersuggestions:
Anti-oxidants aren’t just in the foods you eat. You can actually apply anti oxidant toners directly to your skin to help fight signs of aging. You will find that the boost in vitamin C will leave your skin feeling healthy and smooth.
Abrione makes a wonderful all natural anti- aging moisturizer. Ingredients include green tea, sunflower oil & grape seed oil. It brings out the best mother nature has to offer with a powerful anti-aging punch.
Detoxification. Perhaps you’ve heard about brands with lots of chemicals that tend to make you feel sick not healthy. Well,D24 is organic and free of harmful chemicals. It is a 24 hour detoxification system that helps rid your body of toxins.Health Beauty Science carries all three of the natural anti-aging products listed above and many more. You can also find information about donating to eco-friendly charities, other organic & natural cosmetics and health products and information.

Green roofs also last exponentially longer than average roof material. Read the whole article: Green Roofs

The wonders of lemongrass
Cymbopogon or Lemongrass is what it sounds like, a grass. It is native to India where it’s used to add a citrus flavor to traditional cuisine. It’s wide array off effects don’t just end at the taste-buds.Though it’s appearance may fool you into believing it’s just another plant, lemmongrass actually has many wonderful health & beauty offerings. In recent years it’s been discovered that
lemmongrass can be used in place of stronger, more acidic chemicals. One interesting use I found was Callus Spray. I have looked for organic & natural cures for calluses before and come up short. Now, VB Cosmetics offers “Be Silky Callus Spray” with lemmongrass oil. It also contains Aloe Vera, another amazing plant, to help heal the callused skin.It can be found here, at Health Beauty Science.
