Tips on buying, keeping and discarding personal care products for African American and Latina women.

Whether it is a new haircut, decluttering your closet, or cleaning house, spring is about change by letting go of the old and bringing in the new.

The same applies to your personal care products. Letting go old make-up, moisturizers and sun screens are essential to their effectiveness. Many products like sun screen lose their value in a shorter period of time than you expect. Also, make-up can be a germ bed to your skin, causing irritations and possibly infections.

Our products are made fresh and as a guarantee, we suggest using them is a shorter period of time. Also, refrigeration is effective in keeping germs and other unwanted microscopic critters away. Buy smaller quantities even if the bigger one is a better deal and/or let it chill out with your veggies.
