Summer Sensations


With warmer weather quickly approaching, it's a fine time to update your look and get ready for the sunshine. I have listed simple sugestions that can give you a little beauty therapy.

Kiss My Tresses- Go lighter and brighter. I add a little color to my hair naturally by putting cranberry juice on it. It's gives my hair hints of light browns and red.
Here's a link that gives you additional tips on coloring your hair naturally.

Go for the Gold- Get a natural glow, sunkissed cheeks and an all-over glow by using a bronzer. Add a cream or powdered bronzer to your face where the sun would naturally hit. Also, consider a self-tanner to get even glowing skin tone. You can use for a few days, and quickly see a noticable difference in your complexion. I have used Jergens Natural Glow body lotion for the past four summers and absolutely love it. Look like you were hanging at the beach all day. If you want to pass on the tanning lotion, try Caress Evenly Gorgeous exfoliating body wash. This product also makes the body glow, plus it's smells like brown sugar. Everything mentioned will help make the skin look healthier as well as conceals skin scars and vericose veins.

Heavenly Hair- Hot weather is a great time to practice simplicity. Consider putting the hair up in a cute bun or a disheveled ponytail with a headband or clips. Throw on a printed head scarf or a fun hat. Thinking about ditching the relaxer/chemicals and saying hello to your natural locks? The summer would be an ideal time to do it. It's difficult wearing straight hair in the heat, particularly if you are big on swimming or excercising outdoors. If you are searching for a great product for natural hair, try Shea Moisture. I use the Organic Thick and Curly Hair collection. The products are completely natural and they work!

Color Collabo - Coral is a beautiful punchy color and works on basically anyone. It's perfect on the nails, or try it in a lipstick. My favorite lip color right now!
Other color suggestsions; green and gray nail polish are both fresh and cool to wear this summer.

Scent-sations- Summer days should be simple and effortless. I find this true even in the perfumes you wear - simple and understated.
Check these out! Marc Jacob's Ginger Splash or Daisey, DKNY Pure, Kenzo Flower, Prada Infusion d', Michael Kors' Island, and Cartier De Lune.

Kelp Powder - Mineral Hair Treatment

View my sea kelp natural hair treatment I tried over the weekend.  It is a simple process that offers great results- shine and additional minerals that are great for the hair.  My concoction included kelp powder, aloe vera juice, and oils.  I decided to use coconut and red palm oil in my mixture, but feel free to use whatever oils work well with your hair- almond, apricot, etc.  Leave the mixture on for 2 to 4 hours.  It's easy to wash out, and the smell is minimal.  The first pic of my hair shows my texture prior to the treatment.  View the sheen and length after treatment.  This is a completely natural home remedy.  Care to learn more about kelp and how it supports hair growth, and the overall body-depending on how you use it.   Check out the link from Herb Wisdom for additional info.   http://www.herbwisdom.com/herb-kelp.html

Moroccan Red Clay - hair and beauty treatments

Red clay is one of my recent discoveries.  I came across the name numerous times while surfing the Internet, and only read great reviews.  I decided to make a purchase a few months back, and finally put this clay to use. Most of you know that I have tried several clays, and have been satisfied with each one.  I try to keep them on hand and tend to use them more for my hair than for my face or body.  My favorite clays are Indian clay and Kaolin clay.  Simply add water, aloe vera juice, and/or apple cider vinegar, and you've created an instant paste.  The amount of liquid used will of course be based on what you're creating; facial, hair conditioner, foot application, etc. Red clay can also be used on the body, head to toe.  It has been used for centuries- across the world.   Tackle blemishes or create cleaner and clearer skin.  Alleviate acne, discoloration and create youthful skin.  If you are suffering from any of...
