Natural homemade beauty recipes
Nature is the newest trend in skin and hair care. For years,
we’ve been putting toxic chemicals into our bodies that build up and make us
feel tired and sick, regardless of whether we eat them or if they seep though
our pores. And people are finally catching on that natural is better.
Most stores now have a line of “natural” beauty products.
Unfortunately, they often come with a big price tag attached too. Often times
many of these products are not actually “natural” so it does pay to do your
homework to ensure you are getting what you pay for.
Fortunately actually making beauty products yourself isn’t
too difficult. So if you want beauty products that you know are natural and are
also inexpensive, just make them yourself. Here are 5 quick and easy recipes
you can make at yourself.
Face Mask
Eating good food helps give you the right nutrients you need
to look good. You can get more of these vitamins and minerals by
putting the good stuff right on the skin.
Combining a mashed carrot, mashed avocado, and a beaten egg
with a half cup a few tablespoons of honey creates a great face mask that
provides vitamins, and improves the tone and texture of your skin. Just stir
well, apply, let sit for about 15 minutes, and then wash off with cool water.
After you’re washed and nourished your skin, you can use
grated cucumber or diluted lemon juice as a toner to help tighten your skin and
close up your pores to close your pores and keep your skin looking great.
Hair Conditioner
Many people pay a lot of money for a conditioner that
actually makes your hair look and feel good. Here’s a great natural recipe to
save you money and help your hair.
Just mix an egg yolk with a tablespoon of castor oil and
apply to hair. Let sit for about ten minutes and rinse out. You can use this
every so often as a conditioning treatment for healthy shiny hair. If you like
being experimental, you can try mixing other kitchen items, herbs, and natural
items with eggs for healthy, shiny hair.
Hand and Foot Cream
A quick face mask will help make you look great in not a lot
of time, but hands and feet require extra care.
Use ½ cup of olive oil mixed with natural sea salt and
massage into your hands and feet. Leave a few minutes to soak and then rinse
off with warm water.
When it comes to natural beauty products, these recipes are
just the start. You can find hundreds of different combinations in
natural beauty books, magazines, and on the internet. Or you can go to your
kitchen cabinet and make your own special creations.
