Do you need a
quick glow to your skin and all over healthier look? Bend over at the
waist, as far as you can possibly go, and hold to the count of thirty.
For cellulite,
scrub the skin with a bristle brush or loofah. Brush in slow sweeps,
always toward the heart. There are gloves and mitts available to do this,
but they're not necessary. Try to do this at least five minutes every day.
Also for
cellulite - Copy the expensive herbal wraps offered by top spas. Mix a cup
of corn oil with 1/2 cup of grapefruit juice and 2 teaspoons dried thyme.
Massage into hip, thigh, and buttock areas. Cover with plastic wrap to
lock in body heat. For extra results lay a heating pad over each area for
five minutes.
Right from the
can, Crisco is a big secret among beautiful women. Use it to remove makeup
and as a highly effective moisturizer. Hospitals even use it to treat
psoriasis and eczema.
Raw potato slices contain
potassium to take away dark circles under the eye.
To lighten age spots and
sun-damaged skin, mix the juice of 1 lemon, 1 lime, 2 tablespoons of
honey, and 2 ounces of plain yogurt. Gently massage into each spot. Use at
least once a week.
The best leave-in conditioner for
your hair is nothing other than laundry room fabric softener. It's very
strong, so be sure to dilute it. Suggestions: 1 cup water, 1/2 cup fabric
softener.
Parsley is rich in chlorophyll.
It is a major ingredient in leading breath fresheners, such as Clorets and
Certs. Don't spend lots of money for internal breath fresheners, eat
parsley!
Create your own tinted lip gloss.
Simply mix any of your favorite lipsticks with a dab of Vaseline.
A little bit of red or orange in
the center of the lips makes them look fuller.
To make the whites of your eyes
look brighter, use a light blue pencil under the eyes. Blue eye shadow
lightly applied under the eyes works just as well.
When coloring hair - Color hair
that has not been washed for 1 day. The natural hair oils will assist in
making the hair color application more successful. The color will cling
better to hair that is not dry.
To alleviate puffy, swollen eyes
place bags of frozen peas under the eyes.
Degrease oily hair with witch
hazel when you don't have time to shampoo. Apply to roots with a cotton
ball.
To help relieve dandruff, add 30
plain aspirin to a full bottle of your regular shampoo. Apply and rinse as
usual.
To make you own facial mask, mix
a handful of 100% all-natural kitty litter with a 1/2 cup water and apply
a facemask.
Manicure - Mix one cup of warm
water and the juice of one-half lemon. Soak your fingertips for five
minutes. Rinse and pat dry, pushing back cuticles. Rub lemon peel against
your nails, back and forth vigorously. Finish by buffing with a soft
cloth.
Your nail polish will always be
smooth and easy to apply it you store it in the refrigerator. Frosted nail
polish will not separate. However, if it has hardened or is gummy, place
the bottle in a pan of boiling water. The polish will be like new.
Oily skin holds perfume scents
longer than dry skin. So, before applying perfume, rub a very thin layer
of Vaseline or petroleum jelly on your skin and you will smell delicious
for hours.
To remove the redness from
pimples, rub a tiny spot of visine on the pimple.
Worried about cellulite? Rub used
coffee grounds where the problem exists (cellulite cream is mostly
caffeine based).
To raise the ph level of shampoo,
add aspirin to it.
Need an emery board and can't
find one? You can use the strike plate on a book of matches.
Rubbing Pepto-Bismal® on your
skin is a better facial than peel off masks.
