Underneath It All: Beauty in Progress




Here's to figuring it out the simple way!  Find out about my tried and tested, and don't let me forget truly loved products for keeping a fresh face (and body)!!

Again, the products mentioned are completely natural, easy to find, affordable, and extremely powerful in more than one way.  Basically, there is no guilt when using them.  I have listed websites so that you can read additional info on both items.

Black Soap

There are numerous ways that this soap can be put to use.  I have found it to be the safest and perfect cleanser for my face, and more recently, my entire body- including my hair.  It can has helped rejuvenate my skin- washing my face daily (morning and night), clearing up any discoloration and body acne.  Black soap works great as a shampoo too.  It's super-sudsy and will my hair squeaky clean.  It is  natural so I have no problem using on my children's hair. 

***This soap consists of many good-for-you oils and special ingredients that come straight from nature (coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, and ashes from a various plants)to name a few.

Some other uses and benefits of the Black Soap;
Clear skin irritations, scars, and even skin diseases (psoriasis, eczema)
Slow down the ageing of the skin by using regularly
Also use as a preventive- block pimples and acne from appearing on the face, back, and arms

Raw Shea Butter (Unrefined)

Yes, I have already posted and mentioned my love of raw shea butter on a few occasions, but it's just a favorite of mine.  This is a must-have, as I really am addicted and use daily (twice a day) on my face.  I also use shea butter on my hair as a sealant, and as an all-over body moisturizer.  This butter has essential fatty acids, along with the many vitamins and minerals that are needed to make your skin look and feel good.  Keep your face glowing, free of puffiness and blemishes, and even slow down the wrinkles.

View the following website for additional benefits of raw shea butter.  I know that you would be pleasingly surprised by the countless benefits of  this miracle butter!

My expectations are extremely high for both of these items, as I have only noticed positive changes.  Please let me know if these are items that you've tried, as well as thoughts/feedback.  Comment here, on Facebook, or send me an e-mail.

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...
