Yes, I know... you are not living in a bubble and you are already aware of the beauty benefits of coconut oil, but hey just in case you missed a few things or happen to be in a bubble. 
(no judging lol!) 

Coconut oil is used in many natural beauty products, and for good reason: It's naturally antibacterial and antifungal. Plus coconut oil for skin is an excellent moisturizer, and yes it's exactly what I use to moisturize. Well anyhoo, here are a few other tips... 


DRY HAIR
Coconut oil is an incredibly intensive natural conditioner- Rub into dry hair, put a shower cap on and leave for several hours before washing out with several rounds of shampoo

ACNE
Add a few drops of coconut oil and apply on the face; use as a spot treatment overnight. Remember coconut oil is an antibacterial. 

CRACKED HEELS
Apply a large amount of coconut oil on the entire feet and wear socks.  Let the oil work overnight

DANDRUFF
Add a few drops of tea tree oil to pre-warmed coconut oil and massage in the hair 

MAKE-UP REMOVER
Rub coconut oil all over the face and remove all of your makeup with a with a napkin. Your makeup with slide off like butter

DEADSKIN REMOVAL
Mix coconut oil with equal parts sugar for a smoothing body scrub (use in the shower)

BLEMISHES
Coconut can help lighten age spots when rubbed directly on the skin

NAILS
Rub on cuticles to help nails grow

As always, I hope this helps! :-) 

Duh, when you wash your hair you just simply use warm/hot water right? Mmmmn... It depends.

Using Hot water: Hot water opens your pores in the hair root, which of course makes it easier to remove the oil and dirt from the scalp. Oily scalp=Hot water! But sadly it can leave your hair excessively porous. If the hair is too porous, then there are chances that the hair will become dry and brittle. Now although the hot water will clean the hair roots thoroughly, it will also rip off the oil from the hair roots. 

But wait... 

Using Cold water: By washing hair with cold water, your color won't fade and your leave-in conditioner (Co-Washing) will actually be left in, which means smoother hair. Plus, the hair cuticles will be closed, which will reduce the accumulation of the dirt and sweat in the scalp. Thereby the damage to the hair will also be reduced. It will make the hair smooth and shiny. Cold water will also improve the blood circulation to the scalp: Blood circulates faster when your scalp is cold.

How do I wash my hair? Well, I just use warm water, almost cool and every now and then I use HOT water to get rid of product build up. I've noticed that the conditioner is most effective when I wash with warm/cool water. 

Crush 2-4 prenatal pills up and add them to your shampoo, makes hair grow super fast.

As always, I hope this helps!

Hey yall... Here is a quick beauty tip I got from one of Oprah's Beauty Advisors... 

If you have Wavy or Curly Hair and a Oval Face: A cut that skims your shoulders plays up curls; a side part enhances cheekbones. 

Due to my hair being bleached, I decided to go natural!  So I had to figure the best way to define my curles without using a texturerizer.

I must have found the right product because everyone wants to know what I use and where they can get it.

Well honey I use.... Eco styler Olive Oil Gel
Eco Styler Olive Oil Hair Gel is a non-flaking, maximum hold styling gel the was specifically developed for African-American hair but is ideal for all hair types as well as synthetic hair! The same incredible hold as the Krystal Hair Gel but with the additional moisturizing properties of 100% pure olive oil. This hair styling gel offers maximum hold, deep conditions, adds radiant shine, incredible body and volume, and is water based as opposed to alcohol based, which provides moisture to maintain healthy hair.

This is for my blonde fresh faced beauties!  Freshly bleached blonde hair looks bright, beautiful and banging, but overtime it can go brassy leaving you with canary yellow tones. So Lee Stafford created Bleach Blondes light toning shampoo to help kick this problem into touch. This deliciously deep purple shampoo, specifically for bleached or partly bleached highlights or bleached hair, will lightly tone bleached hair, knocking out brassy canary yellow tones and refreshing and restoring it back to salon beautiful colour.

The Pro-Blonde complex with Miracle Tree will help keep hair squeaky clean and encourage natural shine, whilst the 21st century colour protection helps to stop annoying colour fade caused by styling, sunlight and the damage caused by UV; leaving hair looking and feeling super charged!  

I LOVE IT! Its what I use, I'm rocking blonde myself!

Just recently, I've found out about California Baby, and honey I had to tell ya all about it. The business concept was first born in the early 90′s when founder Jessica Iclisoy wanted to find a safe and sustainable alternative to mainstream baby bath products. She started experimenting with organic herbs and plants, essential oils and powders to create various cleansing potions. By 1995 she introduced her first hit product, Calming Shampoo and Bodywash.

.
 California Baby Shampoo and Bodywash gently and effectively cleans hair, face and body using 100% natural and organic cleansing ingredients such as organic soap bark, wild harvested yucca and super gentle glucosides that all come from renewable and sustainable vegan sources. These all-natural vegetable cleansers are non-stripping, sulfate-free, synthetic fragrance free, naturally low foaming and readily biodegradable (that’s the term for extremely and completely biodegradable). California Baby’s gentle natural Shampoo and Bodywashes are ultra-concentrated, long-lasting, allergy-tested, tear free, non-drying and leave skin soft and supple and hair shiny and manageable. Formulated for sensitive skin and perfect for the whole family, pick up any of the five California Baby all natural Shampoo and Bodywash blends for happy and healthy cleansing.

"All the buns have one thing in common, they all began their lives as ponytails. To achieve Emma Stones twisted bun: Simply gather the hair into a tight ponytail with a deep side parting. Smooth with OSiS Magic or Schwarzkopf Professional BC Oil Miracle Finishing Treatment to get copious amounts of shine. Separate the ponytail into five different sections. Taking one section at a time, wrap loosely around the base of the ponytail and pin. Taking your next section, weave in and out and around your first section. Proceed in this manner until all sections are weaved throughout each other and pinned securely to the head. Finish the bun off with OSiS Sparkler shine spray and OSiS Elastic hairspray."


SIDE-SWEPT HAIR

"The deep side parting with hair on one shoulder is a look anyone can achieve. Apply OSiS Body Me and blow out your hair with as much curl and or body as you choose. Once done set the style with OSiS Elastic hair spray. Decide what side of your head you would like your hair to cascade down. Bring all the hair over to the side and place either in front or behind your shoulder. Gather the hair at your nape and twist it under (if you do not want to see the hair that is secured to your head) or over (if you want to see the twist) and pin with hairpins. Finish with OSiS Elastic."

Got split ends, dry brittle hair, hair breakage, and over processed hair? Or is your hair pretty healty and you just want to keep it that way....Well, there is a product that I believe is a MUST HAVE!!! ooooh I just love it. Its HAIR MAYONNAISE by Organic Roots Stimulator.



This product is an intensive conditioning treatment with whole egg protein, wheat germ oil, Sunflower Oil, Soy Beans, Amino Acids and Olive Oil. These rich ingredients will carry minerals and nutrients into cells giving your hair moisture, and strength. Oh and it smells pretty good too lol

After shampooing, apply a generous amount of Hair Mayonnaise all through your hair from roots to ends. They want you to cover your head with a plastic cap and let it process under a warm dryer or warm towel for 15-20 minutes and then rinse with warm water. However, I just put a plastic bag on my head and let it sit for a couple of hours while I tend to my son's or Blog hehehee
