Grapeseed Oil

 
 

So grapeseed oil is one of those items I frequently alternate off and on between coconut oil.  I'll pretty much grab whichever one I can pick up faster in my house.  My top favorite things to use grapeseed oil for would be my face.  I apply daily after I use blacksoap on my face. 

It's perfect for applying to my hair before shampooing and conditioning.  Simply saturate the hair in the oil, and apply a shower cap for an hour, or as long as you choose- can't hurt.  You can also use it once you've cleansed your hair and scalp, as a routine hair oil.  This oil moisturizes the hair in addition to conditions and strenghtens those ragged ends.  Their is little to no smell, so it should not conflict with any other products you may use.  It's perfectly safe for children as well (hair and skin).  Apply the oil to dry skin daily, to heal dried and skin and cracked heels.  Moistuize the cuticles and nails to strenghten and help those nails grow too!  So that's pretty much all that I do with grapeseed oil, in addition to cooking of course, but here's a link below that offers a list of 20 things to do with grapeseed oil!  Who knew?

Self Care- Make it a Habit

Self care habits in progress. I feel so good when I take time out to treat myself. It pleases me  even more when the practice is inexpensive. Polishing my nails, at-home facial, or sometimes a lengthy shower or bath.  It's extremely important to make time for yourself. I know we hear this often, but self care really promotes mental and physical health. If you're having a rough day, challenging week, or simply feeling  overwhelmed or unenthusiastic about circumstances, I strongly urge you to make time for yourself. I find that I am able to think clearer, and my stress levels are reduced significantly after I practice self care.  Sharing a few self care pics below; at home facial, read book alone in the car, or outside in the sun, make a fun (favorite drink) to enjoy alone, or try an at home mani/pedicure. I also find drawing and painting extremely relaxing. Perhaps you can take a walk or get your heart pumping by exercising. Try slower movements with yoga or pilates....

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
