Beautify your hair and complexion with simple and inexpensive recipes.

Millions if not billions of dollars each year are spent on advertising campaigns to teach us how to look beautiful. As you look in the mirror you see your face is a little lifeless and you have countless options to bring the spark back into your skin. Nevertheless, the best kept secret is natural beauty products made at home. As well, the key to beautiful skin and hair is a balanced diet with limited intake of sugar, caffeine, and oil products.

Shiny Hair

Remove the build up from your hair with a simple natural recipe. Take care of your hair by removing the stagnant and dead particle matter that gets locked into your hair strands. Often the hair becomes dull and lifeless when life becomes stressful and overwhelming. Remove the toxins with either of these two recipes. Your hair will be left shiny and soft after the build up has been removed.

Clean Hair Recipe #1

Put 1 cup of molasses, maple syrup or honey into your hair. Make certain the molasses, maple syrup, or honey covers all of your hair from the roots to the ends. Wrap plastic wrap around your hair and put a towel over your head. Let the product sit in your hair for 15-30 minutes. Rinse and shampoo as usual.

Clean Hair Recipe #2

Mix 2 teaspoons of baking soda with 1 cup of natural shampoo.

Pour 1 tablespoon of the shampoo into the hair and lather. Rinse and repeat if necessary.

Health and Beauty Secret

Many of us are looking for the ancient secrets that will keep us looking healthy and beautiful. We search the stores and listen to the countless infomercials on the power of their product to reduce aging and to bring our youthful complexion back.

Water, water and more water is the answer. Water removes the toxins from the body to give your skin a healthy and vibrant look.

As well, to keep the skin hydrated use a few drops of jojoba oil on the face. Apply the drops to a damp face, as the water aids the oil to absorb into your face.

Natural Health and Beauty Experiment:

For six weeks drink 8 glasses of water a day. At the beginning of this experiment, your complexion will probably look worst as all the toxins are coming to the surface. After the six weeks, you should have a vibrant complexion.

During the six weeks, refrain from highly processed foods and increase your vegetable and fruit intake. Vegetables and fruits are best in their natural state.
