Ladies I know how much you worry about your hair, whether its the style, colour,condition,length, the list goes on. But there is no secret to beautiful hair except have it cut regulary, dont over use chemicals, or dye your hair to an inch of its life, and dont over do the styling products or tools. Eat well, in all the colours of the rainbow. Have plenty of  B complex which helps promote healthy skin and hair, plenty of iron to help prevent hair loss and  drink water, keep yourself hydrated. Use conditioner at every wash on the ends of your hair and every so often use a treatment mask.

YOU KNOW your BEAUTIFUL RIGHT! JUST THE WAY YOU ARE.

                     So here is one of my favorite homemade hair masks.

COCONUT. Get yourself a nice jar of coconut oil.You can get them in health stores and supermarkets. Keep your hair dry!! Mix some coconut oil with a ripe avocado or even a ripe mashed banana ( you see that forgotten banana lying limply in the fruit bowl ! it does have its uses :} ). Now spread the mixture evenly throughout you hair but not in the scalp. Wrap in a warm towel for at least 15mins. Relax or paint your nails. But because your an amazing women you will probably be able to do a million things in that time. But if you  can, leave it in over night. Wash out with COOL water. Then  wash and condition as usual. Your hair should be smooth and soft and shiny!!

So where to start!

Homemade BODY SCRUB. I like to make my own.Its quick and simple.  Take 1 large cup of sugar, brown or white, 1 large tablespoon of honey, 200ml of Sweet almond oil or coconut oil the grated peel of 1 whole lemon, 10 drops of rose essential oil and mix together in a bowl.When your done place into a sealed jar. This should keep for a few weeks just keep toping up with sweet almond oil to ensure the sugar is covered. Do not use on your face or broken or bruised skin!! And dont put on the soles of your feet as you may slip. 

Go gently use your hands to buff away the dry skin, use on slightly damp skin in the shower, before you wash, or have a bath because the creams and body oil will sink into the skin much easier.Therefore softening the skin, keeping you looking and feeling like a goddess.

Say to yourself  I CLEAN AWAY THE OLD MAKING WAY FOR THE NEW.

For a DETOX BATH add two to three large cupfuls of seasalt or epson salt to a warm bath.Stay in the bath for a good fifteen minutes. It relaxes muscle aches and it will cleanse the aura. Please take your time getting out of the bath as salt does make you tired. Once out pat yourself down so the skin is still damp.Then apply a good nourishing body oil like Sweet Almond with Lavender. Remember dont apply any oils to the soles of your feet, because you may fall!! Use gentle strokes in an upward motion.

And say to yourself, I LOVE AND CHERISH MY BODY.

For a RELAXING BATH add 5 drops of lavendar essential oil, 5 drops of geranium essential oil, and 5 drops of manderin essential oil to a warm bath. Disperse with your hand, then add 5 large spoonfuls of milk powder or goats milk to the bath. Now you can make like Cleopatra and indulge your inner queen. This will leave your skin silky smooth and have your nose alive with scents. Once out of the bath slather on  your favourite thick cream. Or try the sanctuarys Egyptian KYPHI Sacred Lotus & Illipe Butter to keep you feeling all majestic!!

Say to yourself  I AM BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT.

For an UPLIFTING BATH add  5 drops of lemon essential oil, 5 drops of orange or manderin essential oil and 5 drops of grapefruit. If you have any sweet almond oil add a few drops to the bath to soften your skin. When you finish cream your body when its still damp with your favourite body cream and say  MY BODY IS SUPPLE I MOVE EASILY AND FREELY. Now your sunshine ready for a fantasic day!!

Homemade FACIAL OIL. For you sleeping beauties out there here is a lovely recipe. I use this because I have sensitive skin.  Take 10mls of sweet almond oil  place 3 drops of Frankincense essential oil and 3 drops of Rose otto essential oil into a a small travel sized pump bottle. Use for your face and neck. Pat gently around the eye area, not directly on it! Frankincense and Rose are expensive but you only use a little.
