In December I was reading other blogs and came across this post at YumYucky's post on how to get chin hairs to stop growing. I also went to this post titled Mineral Oil: A Toxic Evil Lurking in Your Beauty Products.
Let me tell you I have suffered from
hair growth on my face for many many years!! When I was a child it
was so bad that Mom would take me to the doctor to see what they
could do for it. The only thing they suggested was high estrogen.
Well, the only thing that came from that is cysts in my ovaries NOT
the answer I wanted!
I have continued to suffer this
condition, but what is worse than the black pokie hairs on my chin and lip is
the itch that I had developed the last 4 years on my upper lip and
top of throat. It was terrible! The dermatologist said it was part
of my Diabetes being an auto immune disease. Well, the doctors like
to blame everything on the Diabetes! To help reduce the itch I was
taking Allergy pills every single day, even sometimes before bed
until about 4 weeks ago.
What has changed you ask? Josie's
solution for chin hairs has also resolved that terrible itching! I
have never been a person that cared what a product had in it when I
put conditioner or moisturizer on my face. To me I just used what I
thought was the best for my severely dry skin. Now I know there is
truth to why you shouldn't put chemicals on your body!
Now my chin hairs and mustache haven't
gone away at all like Josie's, but I can deal with that compared to
the terrible itching I had!
I buy Raw Shea Butter at Earth
Fare in their Natural products isle. I know you can order it
online too if your not sure where Natural products are sold in your
area. Also, I buy from Etsy JillsNaturalSoaps
I buy the Shampoo Bar and the Vanilla Lotion Bar. These products
ROCK!

I have been using the Shampoo Bar for
about a year now or longer. My hair dresser is very upset with me I
use to get my hair colored every 4 to 7 weeks and now its been since
Thanksgiving! She will ask me when I go into the salon “is that my
hair color still?” I reply “YEP!” She said “I need money to survive Sheri!” LOL! She knows I completely believe its
from using the no chemical Shampoo Bar.
I think there is so much merit to know
what you are eating as well as know what your putting on your skin
before buying it. Over time you don't know what that chemical is
going to do to you or the repercussions of it.
What are you using on your skin? Have
you ever thought it mattered before?

I'm so happy for you Sheri! This is amazing news! woohoo!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the information, Sheri! I will definitely check this out. I have so many skin allergies, that I won't even let hair conditioner touch my scalp. I just use it on the outside layer of my hair and rinse carefully.
ReplyDeleteSo these pesky beauty issues aren't just yours, I have some major ones too. Thanks so much for sharing this. The less strange chemicals in my beauty products the better.

My hairs are all over my face but did not show up till perimenopause into menopause so I know they are directly related to hormone changes. I did try the all natural shea butter but it is too much for my face areas for sure - breaks me out but I do use on my lips. I will have to check that shampoo bar though! :)
ReplyDeleteMy skin has so many age related hormone issues that I have found nothing yet that helps - still trying stuff - UGH with this age! ;)
