Sunscreen Q & A with Dermatologist Dr. Neal Schultz from NYC {Beauty Notes}

Sunscreen.jpgOK, here is the sunscreen Q & A  I mentioned earlier on.

  • Can adults use sunscreens for kids? (Kiehl's has a new one coming out) and why or why not? Of course yes....separation for adults and kids is marketing and has no medical basis.

The Lure of Argan Oil by Guest Contributor Pauline

Surfing on the Argan oil’s wave, Naturelle d’Argan is an organic and ethical skin care range, which uses the highly regenerative oil of Moroccan origin that nourishes, protects and moisturizes the skin.

The 100% organic argan oil is reported to contain over 20 nutrients for the skin, such as Omega 6 and Omega 9, vitamin E and Polyphenol, which are powerful anti-oxidants. Berber women, who have traditionally been in charge of the hand picked harvests of Argan nuts, use this anti-aging oil for their beauty rituals (body, hair and nails).

The Naturelle d’Argan range comprises 4 face and 3 body skin cares, including an original exfoliating cleansing gel made of finely ground Argan seeds and apricot kernel. The Argan oil, called “Pure Argan Elixir,” is labelled “Cosmebio”, which guarantees the use of a minimum of 95% of natural ingredients and 10% of bio ingredients.
