Today I am gonna tell you about the health dangers of Fluoride and other nasty ingredients found in commercial toothpastes. I use Weleda’s  Calendula toothpaste which smells of Fennel, I am not a big fan of fennel but this works like any other toothpaste and it doesn’t have those nasty chemicals (Free of artificial fragrances, fluoride, preservatives and sulfates.)

Last week I ran out of my toothpaste (my toothpaste  from an online store hadn’t arrived) and wasn’t  even remotely interested in using the commercial one so I made my own toothpaste at home. Please read what ingredients you should be avoiding in  commercial toothpastes before reading the recipe.

Pomegranate Oil For Mature Skin

Share

Pomegranate Seed Oil is one of my favorite Carrier Oils, there are various reasons why I love this oil. Let me tell you some benefits of Pomegranate Oil.

Pomegranate
Pomegranate

Cold pressed Pomegranate seed oil is derived from the seeds of pomegranate fruit which is extremely rich in rare essential fatty acids called Punicic acids(approximately 65%) and other fatty acids like Linolenic acids, Oleic acids, Palmitic acids and Stearic acids. Pomegranate seed oil is very nutritious and full of antioxidants so I consider this oil to be one of the best natural skin moisturizers. It fades Wrinkles and Fine lines, revitalizes Mature skin, improves Skin Elasticity, improves Skin Tone and gives your skin a healthy glow. A little goes a long way, so just take 2 drops and massage your face every night before going to bed.
