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?

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...

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....
