HomeMade Body Scrub for dry rough skin


Hello,

Suffering from Dry Rough winter skin??? 
To scrub away the winter blues let the Kitchen Cabinet to come to the rescue ..



Relaxing Guacamole Body Scrub 

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup mashed avocado
  • 1 tbsp milk cream
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • A few drops of lavender, or your favorite essential oil (optional)
Process:

Stir ingredients together in a large bowl until well mixed. Use in the shower or bath to exfoliate elbows, knees, heels, or any dry, scaly areas. Rinse well. 

Avocado and olive oil both contain fatty acids to replenish your skin’s natural protective barrier. In fact, some of my patients with rashes such as eczema or “winter itch” prefer olive oil and other natural oils to soothe their sensitive skin because these oils don’t sting or irritate. Lavender is a scent commonly used in aromatherapy — they've been shown to help you sleep more soundly. Consider adding a few drops of this oil if you scrub before bedtime. 

There are many more packs to choose from - read more about Home-Made Packs

Do you like doing Body Polishing at home?? try my method of Body Polishing this winter season.

For face I have just the perfect Face Pack-cum- Scrub recipe


Stay Beautiful,

HomeMade Pack for Product Buildup in hair



Hi,

Is your hair limp and dull? Do you feel that the hair gets greasy very quickly after you wash your hair? And you never get the squeaky clean feel? Well then this might be the case of "Product Buildup" on the hair and scalp.
What is "Product Buildup"? When we use different hair care product like shampoos, conditioners, and different hair styling products etc, they leave behind some residue on the hair and on the scalp. This residue stick to hair and makes your hair look dull, sticky and nasty. This residue is so hard that many times shampoo even cannot break it. It even stops any nourishment or oils from any product applied to reach the strand or the scalp. This residue can also be because of hard water conditions.

How to remove Product Build up ?    


Let the Kitchen Cabinet come to the rescue ...


Yes, Baking Soda, also called Sodium Bicarbonate or eating soda. Do not confuse Baking soda with Baking Powder, they both are way different. 
Baking soda can be used to clarify the hair when mixed with water, shampoo or conditioner. A baking soda hair wash cleans out excess product, removes impurities and cleans your hair better than many expensive products on the market. Baking Soda breaks through the residue layer on the hair strand as well as on the scalp. This will make hair product residue free so that it shines and becomes healthy.  

Process:

Wet your hair normally, take your normal shampoo in your palm, and add 1 Table Spoon (for short - medium length hair, more for longer hair) of Baking Soda mix the content in your palm and massage them in your hair, leave for 2-3 minutes and wash as usual. You can repeat the shampoo if you want. This will result 
in squeaky clean hair.

Precaution: 

Do not over do it. Once in two weeks is enough. Don't leave it for more than 3 minutes. Baking soda makes hair absorb moisture, so it may weaken or break the hair shaft if overdone. Use with care

Stay Beautiful :)
