Soften Up

Eliminate dryness and roughness in your skin with a homemade citrus-sugar scrub. In this blend, citric acid works to soften and loosen dry skin, and the sugar scrub removes it.

What Do I Need?

1 orange, lemon or small grapefruit
1/4 cup of sugar
1/4 cup of olive oil

How Do I Make It?

1. Mix the juice of one half of an orange in a bowl with 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/4 cup of olive oil (an incredible year-round all natural moisturizer).

2. Rub the other half of the orange where you need it...elbows, kneels, heels, hands. Rub the organge-sugar mixture over those same spots.

3. Gently rinse and dry.

The Eyes Have It

The eyes are the windows to the soul...the first thing you notice about someone's face, right? Keep your own eyes looking their best (so you can feel confident) with these fast and easy at home remedies:

For Puffy Eyes:
Apparently an old trick works. Chilled cucumber slices...either several thin slices or just one thick slice on each eye will sooth any puffiness. Cucumber slices are thought to have anti-inflammatory properties, and they go to work in just a couple of minutes. For the longest lasting results, close your eyes, lay back and position the cucumber slices on top. Relax for 10-15 minutes. Gently wipe off any residue with cool water, then apply an eye cream.

For Baggy Eyes:
Produce to the rescue once again! This time, use raw potato slices over your eyes. You'll get results in about 10 minutes.

For Wrinkles Around the Eyes:
Head to the fridge for an egg to plump and tighten wrinkly skin. All you need is one egg white. Get it in a bowl and whip it until soft peaks start to form. Dab the egg around the eye; focusing on the skin to the outside corners, and underneath along the cheekbones. Let it dry, then use cool water on a wash cloth or cotton ball to remove.

Essential DIY Home Spa

Create a home spa featuring homemade, all-natural products to make you look and feel (and smell!) great.
The main ingredient is something you'll find in your kitchen...Olive Oil! Add just a few drops of essential oils to help to boost your beauty routine and your brain.

To 1/4 cup of Olive Oil:

---add 5-7 drops of peppermint essential oil and massage into your scalp to help with dryness, and to stimulate the area. Peppermint is also wonderful for relieving headaches and re-energizing your mind.
---add 5-7 drops of lavender essential oil, and massage into cuticles, as well as on heels, elbows, knees...any rough spots. The soothing scent will calm and relax you while you work on soothing that skin.
---add 5-7 drops of grapefruit essential oil. The citric acid will help to loosen dead skin cells, and rejuvenate the skin underneath. The bright, crisp scent will also help to boost your mood.
---add 5-7 drops of eucalyptus oil to a big bowl of hot water. Lower your head over the bowl and breathe in the menthol scent. You can drape a towel over your head and the bowl for a more intense experience. The eucalyptus oil will help to open your pores as well as your breathing passages. Finish by wiping your face with a damp paper towel or washcloth.
