Is it just my imagination or is Amazon literally taking over the world? It’s hard to beat the variety of items, the speed of delivery and in many cases, the prices. But when it comes to beauty, is Amazon the best source to turn to? I was curious to learn which beauty items Amazon sells the most of and whether or not they were worthy of such distinction. Here are Amazon’s three recent top selling beauty items.
Active Wow Teeth Whitening Charcoal $25
This very basic and ancient remedy truly does help to whiten teeth. It’s not just my opinion, but also the opinion of nearly 10,000 Amazon product reviewers. The negatively charged charcoal absorbs plaque and other microscopic particles that cause teeth to appear yellow. It also changes the pH balance in the mouth which can help prevent cavities and bad breath. Word to the wise, this product can be messy and will stain clothes, grout, etc. so use caution. Add a 1-2 minute activated charcoal brushing into your oral hygiene routine 3 times weekly and enjoy the sparkling results! View Active Wow Teeth Whitener here.
Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay $10
In the midst of hundreds of cutting edge anti-aging beauty products based on extensive research, development and technology, this is another good old-fashioned and literally “down to earth” staple that should be part of your weekly routine. Bentonite Clay which is chocked full of detoxifying minerals is formed from volcanic ash and, similar to Activated Charcoal, takes on a negative charge when mixed with water. A simple mask of Bentonite Clay and water once or twice weekly will help pull unwanted toxins from the skin’s pores and also help regulate sebum production. A tip from me to you…on mask day, plan to hop in the shower when it is time to rinse the mask off of your face. Mask removal over the sink with a wash cloth can be a bit messy and time consuming.

Finishing Touch Flawless Women’s Painless Hair Remover $20
As we all know, the majority of Amazon’s best sellers are the result of years of industry research, improvement and ingenuity, and not products that come from the earth. This gadget is no exception. As a member of the “Hair Removal Pioneers Club”, which means that I’ve tried everything, I feel that I am more than qualified to comment on anything that claims to effectively remove hair. My comment is this…I love it. There is a reason why the words “flawless” and “painless” are included in the actual name of the product. In fact, I had to carefully inspect treated areas to make sure that the hair had actually been removed because I hadn’t felt a thing during treatment! This very reasonably priced gadget is lightweight, well made, and effective. It is also the perfect size for a stocking stuffer and the perfect price point for an office gift. I’m stocking up now!
