NATURALLY PINOY HEALTH AND BEAUTY FAIR AT KULTURA

In the past, Filipinos turned to nature to make themselves healthy and beautiful.  Their natural remedies were in their backyard – fruits and vegetables were a natural source of vitamins, while common ailments were treated with teas and leaves.

The Filipina’s beauty routine took a similar route – gugo and coconut oil for healthy lustrous hair, handmade herbal soaps for her skin, and the scent of flowers for her fragrance. Today’s technology has enhanced the natural way to health and beauty even more, and with it, more exciting products for contemporary lifestyles.
