This Article basically shows the positive In cosmetics. Its about the women of south africa and how once before becoming an Avon women they had no way of making a living for themselves or families.But once Avon gave them that chance a woman name Alice Mthini Spoke out and talked about her Struggled to support herself and her family for years and the moment she became an avon lady. “I have now made enough to put my kids through private school, and she also bought myself a new laptop and a car as well. (although I have yet to learn how to drive it). Shes excited that she's no longer in a struggle and shower herself with expensive things, and give her kids a great education.
My second source Was from another article "Economics lesson in cosmetics," http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/money/4893416/Economic-lessons-in-cosmetics.
The author Rebecca Stevenson is basically telling us the economics of cosmetics and also what's in now, and what do people prefer in cosmetics, Brand color, price etc.
“Nail polish does seem to be the new lipstick”, Just like lipstick nail polish comes in different shades of colors and people love them, but at the moment nailpolish is in and lipstick is out!
My third source, “Nails with personality” http://youthvoices.net/discussion/nails-personality#comment-27802 was from a girl name Britney, a student at bash her article about how nail polish color or designs shows the kind of person your are. I can relate to this article because as i said before i change my nail polish color every single day if i can, its apart of my own fashion and britney feels the same way. "Nail polish in fashion has been normally a tradition with women." Just like me most women use it daily, or others go and get there done by others every other week or so. Pedicures, manicures, Tips Etc.
My fourth source is from another student by the name of Emily Burden http://youthvoices.net/discussion/warning-make-not-beautiful-it-seems#comment-25248. Her article stood out to me because she showed a bad side of make up cosmetics.
Everyone thinks just because makeup makes you look pretty that its always a good thing. One thing she said that stood out to me was. " In today's society, makeup is what women use to be seen, to be known, to get attention." I think people do it for the wrong reasons. Adults do it to look younger and teenagers do it to look older and they're getting the wrong attention. another thing she said that i'm sure not everyone knew was. " many companies that still test on animals." "put the tested product either in their eye, or on their exposed skin". People feel its better to test out animals on thing rather than to just put it on shelves or to test it on humans because animals so called “Don't Have Feelings”
This video also shows the bad in cosmetics as well. It tells you how women uses more cosmetics products than men a day but there are many toxic things in though ingredients that can kill you day by day because you use them daily. “carcinogens in it which causes cancer, and Neurotoxins, and Reproductive toxins , which is Proven to mess up brain development and reproduction in animals.” It Makes me wonder about everything i use on a daily my soaps, lotions, face wash, perfumes, air freshener anything.
