When we wash our hair do we find ourselves thinking about what hair chemicals we put on our hair?
We may not be aware that we are unknowingly putting harmful chemicals on our hair thus resulting to general conditions such as migraine, nausea and skin rashes. The symptoms may be quickly attributed to stress but if you look closer to that hair product you’re using, you’ll be surprise to find the culprit.
Popularity does not equate to safety, some popular brands sold in the market are loaded with mildly toxic chemicals that may be harmful in prolonged use.
Novuhair, Nature’s answer to hair loss, gives you the lowdown on these chemicals to help you with your choices.
The truth about hair chemicals
Lather
Myth: Shampoo must produce lots of lather in order to properly clean your hair.
Truth: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is a compound that helps shampoo and other cleaning product in producing foam and bubbles. Though it may effectively remove hair build-up, it can also strip off essential oils that is needed to keep your hair healthy.
Anti-bacterial compound
Myth: Parabens has an anti-bacterial compound benefits that outweighs the harm.
Truth: Parabens are basically used to prolong the shelf life of hair and cosmetic products mostly for its antibacterial purpose. Symptoms that are related to over exposure to parabens are Atopic Dermatitis and Rosacea. Further studies also show that use of products with parabens accelerate skin damage and aging related to sun exposure.
Perfume

Myth: My hair smells terrific! I love the perfume scent on my hair product.
Truth: A nice whiff of perfume might not be harmful but the fragrance that is mixed in your hair product might have come from harmful substances from highly toxic ingredients which can lead to Allergic reactions and mood swings. That perfume is better off somewhere else.
Straightening and Smoothening
Myth: Hair products that promise straightening and smoothening effect use non-toxic Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate as a natural preservative.
Truth: Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate is a substance used in making your hair soft and bouncy, although it is considered natural preservative, also releases formaldehyde which can lead to skin and eye irritations. Prolonged use may also affect your immune system.
Use of some of these chemicals combined may also result to hair loss and other hair problems, thus, it is important to be an informed consumer. A lot of new products have saturated the market hence, read the labels for fine prints before buying.
Novuhair, nature’s answer to hair loss is made of 19 Natural ingredients which includes herbal components such as moringa oleifera, panax ginseng, virgin coconut oil and the natural essences of rosemary and peppermint.

Novuhair’s all-natural ingredients
Novuhair nourishes the scalp and hair by increasing the flow of nutrients and improving blood circulation to the scalp. Novuhair also helps hydrate the scalp, maintain the hair’s natural luster and prevent early hair graying, hair dryness and itching.
Novuhair Topical Scalp Lotion, Shampoo and Conditioner are available in all Mercury Drug Stores and other leading drug stores nationwide.

Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre showed that you can eat delicious food and lose weight at the same time as it kicked off its first Cohen Cook-Off Challenge. Cohen clients faced off in a cooking competition and presented their healthy, easy-to-cook and appetizing Cohen meals that can be quickly prepared at home and by doing so, lose weight safely and effectively.
Cohen Cook-off Challenge Contestants

From left to right at the Cohen Cook-off Challenge: Regina Chuavon (Director, Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre Philippines), Carrie Luis (a freelance assistant), Marian Remo (businesswoman), and Dr. Mary Ann Tangcangco (physician)
Showcasing their original recipes were Mary Ann “Dr. Ianne” Tangcangco, 40, a physician who lost 35 lbs. on the program so far; Marian Remo, 30, a businesswoman who lost 16 lbs. to date; and Carrie Luis, 26, a freelance assistant who just started the program. Cohen clients Tangcangco, Remo and Luis prepared Apple Cake, Beef Stuffed Zucchini and Mushroom Burger, respectively.
Backed by years of scientific and medical research, Cohen’s Lifestyle Program is a personalized and rapid weight-loss and wellness program that focuses on proper nutrition and uses food as medicine. Each client’s unique blood profile is used as the basis for an individualized eating plan that recommends the personalized quantities of specific types of food that correct the hormonal imbalance that causes weight gain and obesity.
How does it work?
The program works like a prescription. It only “prescribes” food tested at the precise personalized quantity based on the biochemistry of your body to allow the body to do what it is naturally designed to do which is to burn fat. The food prescribed is easily available in the local supermarkets and is most likely already in your kitchen. Through this, there is no need for costly and unsafe procedures, such as injections or pills. Cohen’s Lifestyle Program delivers fast results, with clients averaging a loss of up to eight to 10 lbs. a month.

Barbara Young (CEO, Cohen’s Lifestyle Center)
“The Cohen Program has a track record of success in delivering rapid weight loss using only food as medicine. We provide a safe, effective and scientific method of achieving a slimmer and healthier body, where all other methods may have failed,” said Barbara Young, Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre CEO and a certified life coach.
“Cohen’s Lifestyle Program takes a holistic approach to losing weight. We don’t just guide you in losing weight but we also teach a healthier lifestyle, including cooking and eating habits and the way you look at food. You don’t need to be a chef to be able to prepare healthy, delicious meals.”
“With a little bit of creativity in preparing food, losing weight can actually be fun. With the Cohen Cook-Off Challenge, we hope to inspire more people to take charge of their own health by getting involved in the preparation of their own food.”
What does the Cohen Cook-off Challenge show us?
The Cohen Cook-Off Challenge demonstrates that you can enjoy healthy, delicious and easy-to-cook meals even on a weight-loss program. With Cohen’s Lifestyle Program, you can now say goodbye to bland food to lose weight rapidly, safely and effectively.
Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre offers complimentary information sessions. To schedule an appointment, you may call the Makati office at 828-5251 or (0917) 892-6436.

The Eau Thermale Avene Skin Recovery Cream DEFI debuts this latest innovation at the ground floor of SM Department Store’s beauty section in Makati City.
Customers can look forward to a week-long event marked by various exciting activities. Shoppers can participate in a photo contest where they can get the chance to win Eau Thermale Avene products, free derma consultations from certified dematologists, personalized notebook as freebies for every purchase of the Skin Recovery Cream and many more.
Sterile Cosmetics
The Skin Recovery Cream was developed as part of Eau Thermale Avene’s product roster under the STERILE COSMETICS line. These products comply with a stringent charter based on 3 key points:
1 Sterilization throughout production
2 Rigorous selection of only essential ingredients
3 A perfectly patented hermetic sealing system called
“DEFI”. This cap ensures that the product inside does not come into contact with the air so there is no need to preserve it since the product remains sterile until use.
Sterile Cosmetics guarantee formulas with absolutely no preservatives or substances with incidental preservative function (unlisted preservatives). Since preservatives do not affect the formula’s efficacy, Sterile Cosmetics also means that your skin is getting only what’s essential and that it offers unique safety even for the most sensitive skin.
For Hypersensitive, Intollerand, and Allergic Skin
The Philippines’ tropical weather poses challenges to your skin. The high humidity and unforgiving sun can cause irritation. But with the Skin Recovery Cream your skin can be protected from the harsh effects of the environment as well as the cosmetics you tend to pile on.
This product helps protect skin and soothes irritation and restores the hydrolipidic film thanks to Parcerine®. This patented formula contained in Eau Thermale Skin Recovery Cream effectively alleviates and protects skin, restores the skin barrier, and reduces the skin reactivity.
