Raw beauty ideas?

Rosie

Hey there, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for raw beauty recipes, such as using coconut butter as a moisturizer and the like. I’m especially interested in any recipes for a hydrating face mask – winter + wind + walking outside = dry skin!

Awesome – and I love that the first two suggestions were from males!

Avacados are one of the most dense high enzymatic foods. how about a avacado mask! But you have to show a pic to us!!!!

I follow the same rule rawmumma! If I can’t eat it, it’s not going on my skin…the same for my twins, too. I just slathered coconut oil on my daughter after her bath tonight.

I have to say the dry skin brushing has made a huge difference for my complexion. I couldn’t imagine how it would work, but my skin is smooth and really nice. Sometimes I’ll put coconut oil on after the skin brushing.

I have a question, I’ve tried to coconut oil on my feet with socks…and my feet are still all cracked and calloused. Any other ideas? I’m out of ideas.

Thanks! Debbie

I’ve used olive oil before bedtime, and then sleeping with gloves (the winter’s -30 Celsius has really damaged my already fragile hands), but I will try coconut oil, and hope it cures them faster. I’ll let you all know my comparison results.

i got a tip to use the seed of a mango on your face as a natural exfoliator. cut the flesh off of a mango, eat it. Eat all flesh around seed and eat. After washing face with natural cleanser and rinsing it rub rough side of mango seed all over face and neck. Let sit for a minute and rinse. You will see the difference in your complexion.

What about a natural hair care product? I’m switching to coconut butter as a moisturizer, using minerals for make up, and would like to start something different with my hair. Any shampoo ideas? What about styling products?

grapeseed oil is a wonderful facial moisturizer. it is light and absorbs well.
