An ongoing trend in beauty products from cosmetics to lotions and perfumes is to make them sweet.  There are hundreds of flavors to appeal to any sweet tooth. Flavors go from decadent fruits to seductive deserts.

New research from the journal Food Quality and Preference demonstrated that food fragrances that are in your cosmetics, lotions, body washes, lotions and beauty products my awaken cravings in you r brain.  In order to satisfy these cravings, you will be more likely to snack more, and make poor food choices. If given the choice pass the sweet aromas and pick unscented or more floral choices as an alternative.
