If you love skincare as much as I do, you have probably heard of Mario Badescu. Beauty gurus have raved about his brand for a while now, but his facial sprays are especially popular.

For example, the rosewater facial spray has flown off of shelves because rose water is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Using pure rose water can help reduce skin irritations, acne and eczema.

Mario Badescu is not a trustworthy brand and the facial sprays are a scam.

In 2014, thirty-one customers using Mario Badescu's facial creams filed a lawsuit against the company due to being injured by undisclosed steroids in the products. The facial creams were marketed as all natural, botanical products, but really contained addictive steroids.

While Mario Badescu's facial sprays may not contain anything dangerous, the ingredients certainly are not as natural as the brand leads customers to believe. On the rosewater facial spray, roses are not even listed as one of the top five ingredients. Mario Badescu's rose water contains several chemicals that may not be safe for all skin types.

Speaking from personal experience, I will tell you this: Mario Badescu's rose water did not improve my skin at all. In fact, it dried my skin out tremendously.

Have I had friends who swear by this facial spray?

Yes, but they're always the friends who grew up with naturally flawless skin. If you have sensitive skin and tend to react strongly to chemicals, this product is not for you.

There are many rosewaters on the beauty shelves that contain two ingredients: water and rose.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
