The After Affects: Cucumber Facial Kit

I love the way things work!! So, I was noticing some changes in my skin and decided that it was about time for a facial.  Would I go to the spa?  Absolutely not because...well, it's just not feasible at the moment.

Moments after the thought, I saw a post in my timeline from our own C. Dawn Farrow regarding a new cucumber facial kit.  I clicked the link and was pleasantly surprised to see that the facial kit was available for the low cost of $10.00!!!

What is it?
A chemical compound, phthalates, is also know as a plasticizer.  In the beauty world, this chemical compound can be found in nail polish, makeup (maintaining the color) and lotions (even spreading).  Phthalates are also responsible for making your fragrance last longer.
