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.

Rid Your Life of Chemicals!!! Bon Pour Moi

Me, Myself, and I

Just two weeks ago, I was laid out on a beach, on an island, alone. No children, no husband, not even a girlfriend. Just me, my music, and a good book. It's rare that I get time alone, but I believe it's highly necessary. I've gotten a few raised eyebrows because I have taken several trips without my children, a few outside of the country. I don't feel guilty one bit. I'm certainly not a perfect mother, but I know that quality time is important in my household, along with family fun, activities, and traveling. Although challenging, stealing alone time really needs to be made a priority. This time can attribute t...

Lemon Balm, Fresh Herb to Try

I use this fresh green herb in cleaning and beauty products. It's packed with antioxidant properties that can relieve everything from a head cold to indigestion. This green herb has a beautiful subtle fragrance that can be served in a beverage, mixed into a food dish, and of course brewed for an herbal tea. For the home; try tossing a few leaves in the toilet, or creating a combo of other flowers and herbs for potpourri or bath sachets to add a zing of freshness to the bathroom. This herb can also be mixed into a shampoo or conditioner, facial cleanser, or body spray. Another option is to just toss a few sprigs into the bath water for an herbal body cleanse. Consider growing your own lemon balm in your outdoor (or indoor) garden), or purchase dry lemon balm from the store. It's reasonably priced, so it will be well worth the little money with all of the uses you will find. Check...
