#ComeCloser to Radiant Skin

The Indian beauty market today is populated with a huge variety of cosmetic products that claim to be helping us in enhancing our beauty. From lightening our skin tone, to removing acne to tackling fine lines and wrinkles, these cosmetics have a solution for all our big and small skin issues. However many beauty obsessed amongst us fail to notice or rather chose to ignore the adverse side effects of these products on our skin.

Time and again we read about reports on how harsh chemicals in the day-to-day cosmetic products like face washes and shampoos do more harm to our skin than good. Still we continuing using such products lured in by their glamorous packaging and exotic smells, disregarding the harm they can do. In our family, we always make it a point to avoid chemically loaded products as much as possible. There is a lot of attention paid to buying organic stuff, right from fruits and vegetables to even simple beauty products like bathing soap, face creams and moisturisers.

When it comes to skin care, we have never had to look beyond Vicco. We have been using the Vicco Turmeric Cream for as long as I can remember and thanks to its ayurvedic base, I never had to worry about the products leaving any side effects. Every time I read about cosmetics rich in parabens and other harmful chemicals, my trust in Vicco goes a notch higher. Vicco turmeric cream not just takes care of skin issues like black heads and acne, but also helps cure skin rashes and allergies. And it is for this good reason that this cream continues its stronghold in the market.

One big reason behind my trust in the Vicco Turmeric cream is the fact that its composition has an ayurvedic base plus it contains turmeric, and like most Indian women rooted in tradition, I am a firm believer in the magical properties of turmeric.
