Cynos Body and Thairapy #Argan Oil #ProductReview #Organic

Image
When Argan Oil has become popular last year, I belong to those who really eager to try the wonders of it. It took a while for me to score a bottle of argan oil since it is a bit pricey. Why I need it? Having a very dry skin and hair during extreme weather, an argan oil is reckoned to help me get through those times. The part of my body which the paucity of moisture is in highest demand are my feet. First time in my existence that average callus has formed in my feet  together with intense dryness that resulted to cracked heels. I must admit, it has made a slight fall off my self-confidence that I got shy of going to footspa and even wearing flip-flops because it shows off my feet.

I have reviewed few mosquito repellent lotions in the past. This lotion comes very handy wherever we are since I am fond of applying lotion for skin protection. This lotion is very affordable, you can get a 100ml full lotion product for only P60. Still a steal for a budget conscious mom like me.
