You will need three main ingredients: honey, oil, sugar. Here is how to do it:
- Warm a jar of honey (in water bath, microwave or oven) until it becomes runny but not too hot to the touch.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the honey (eyeball it) into a bowl.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of your favorite oil. You can use coconut oil, sweet almond oil or even baby oil. In a pinch, you could even use olive oil, which is also great for the skin.
- Add about a 1/2 cup of sugar. Mix well.
- Step in the shower and turn on the water. Get completely wet and apply the scrub you made! Enjoy the rinse, have some relaxation and after that rinse off in the shower.
There are really easy recipes out that contain essential ingredients that will help your feet to look and feel great. One recipe uses:
- 1 cup of Epsom salt – this is a common ingredient found in detox baths.
- 1 cup of sea salt.
- 2 cups of baking soda.
Just mix this together and store in an airtight container. When you are ready to detox your feet, put ¼ cup of the mixture in a foot basin and fill with water as hot as you can stand it. You can also add a few drops of your favorite essential oils to make the detox bath and your feet smell great. Just soak your feet for about half an hour. The salts work with the hot water to draw toxins out of your system and to help your feet feel refreshed.
4. LIPS. Here is a way to create a natural, inexpensive lip care that moisturizes, exfoliates, and plumps at the same time. It's super easy, and relies on cinnamon as a key ingredient. Start with a little cinnamon and Vaseline. Smooth the Vaseline over your lips, totally but not outside the lines. Pat the cinnamon on top, and rub it around. The cinnamon mildly irritates the skin on your lips, causing them to redden and swell slightly. If you put too much and rub it too hard, however, your lips might sting.
Leave the mixture on for a few minutes, and rub it around. Then wipe it off. You don't want ingest too much cinnamon (especially by itself like that) as it can irritate your throat. Apply a little more Vaseline, and let it soak in. Enjoy your fuller, plumper lips. Warnings: Don't do this if you have chapped lips. The cinnamon will get into the minor cuts on your lips and burn.
Now l hope you are ready to shine and radiate your beauty! Have a beautiful, smooth and vital skin!
