While buying cosmetic products one should pay attention to the dates of production and validity and also to the ingredients. Some of them are of natural origin (such cream is better and more effective), others are artificial, synthetic. The ingredients of cosmetic products are listed in the order of decreasing. The ingredient of the biggest quantity is the first. Water is usually the first component, preservatives usually go at the end.
All natural substances are written in Latin, so it is sometimes difficult to decide if the component is natural or not if you do not know the name. The more synthetic ingredients there are, the longer the term of validity is. It`s better when there are two dates indicated- producing and expiring. If after using the cream your skin starts shining, it means you have chosen the right cream. If after having used the cream for a week, you do not notice any effect (neither tension, nor relief), better use it for hands or feet and do not buy it any more.
The more natural substances are included into creams, the better they are. Natural cosmetics does not do any harm to skin: it does not become dry or irritated. Allergic people should be careful about the ingredients.
