I was talking to one of my really good friends that I've had since 4th grade and I advised her as to what facial scrub she needs to go get it! Which is the Microdelivery by PHILOSOPHY. BUT it's actually pretty expensive Eeeeek! :(
So then I thought about it and remembered there is an amazing scrub that is literally right in your kitchen and can be done for free! Yasssss hunti I said FREE!
To create the scrub, just mix together half a cup of coarse brown sugar with a tablespoon of honey, a little olive oil, and 1/4 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, then apply all over your body/ FACE and rinse. The scrub not only smells delicious, but leaves your skin feeling ultra-smooth.
However if your skin is super sensitive I recommend you just mix of the brown sugar or Raw sugar with a teaspoon of your current cleanser.
As a beauty blogger I love to share what other bloggers are advising... So here you go! Yaaassss honey these are tips you will definitely love. Plus its supper easy! Thank me later!

Honey Chile let me tell you one of the things that make me smile nowadays is Coconut Oil... well Extra Virgin coconut oil that is (ECVO). Coconut oil is one of the healthiest oil in the world.
Coconut Oil very good at hydrating skin. It sinks in deep, conditions, moisturizes, and softens skin. It isn’t pumped full of water or petroleum byproducts like many commercial cleansers or lotions either. Skin is kept clean by an oily substance called sebum. When sebum mixes with too much dirt, bacteria, and dead skin cells it can clog pores and lead to acne and other blemishes and honey who wants that?!!
I love the fact that Coconut oil naturally clears away dirt, grime, and dead skin cells. It even has some antibacterial properties, killing off harmful bacteria. Coconut oil is the all-in-one natural solution to all your skin problems! I know what ya thinking... Why didn't unknown this earlier in life. Don't worry, better late than never. But wait there is more...
EVCO soothes bug bites, speeds healing, helps with rashes, gets rid of flaking skin, softens and shrinks wrinkles, protects against sun damage, keeps tans longer, acts as an antioxidant to prevent cellular aging, and so much more. It removes makeup easily and even makes the perfect massage oil.
Please make sure your EVCO is organic/pure! USDA approved!
My EVCO is by Better Body foods... Stay tuned because my next post will be why EVCO is great for your hair!
Okay fresh face beauties here is a good ol' home remedy that I haven't giving you guys in a while...
Get you some money and throw in a little baking soda for a scrub. Doing this helps boost circulation but doesn’t tear off your top layer of skin.
Here’s how to do it: Combine one tablespoon of honey with one teaspoon of baking soda in your palm. Rub them together with a few drops of water and then massage gently in circular motions on your face. Let sit for a minute then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
I promise if you do this you have beautiful glowing skin.
Truth be told, Avocados are not really liked by me but things can change soooo fast! Avocados are really good for you. Why you ask??, Well, Avocados have antibacterial properties that can help you skin when applied to your face. It helps clean the pore and if you skin is acnagenic and could help with inflammation as well. Avocados has been known to stimulate the growth of collagen and can keep you skin looking young!
Try Freeman Clay Facial Mask with Avocado and Oatmeal which I absolutely love or if you want you could Mash together one avocado (cut into pieces), the juice from half a fresh orange, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil. Spread evenly on your face and neck, leave on for 30 minutes, and then wash off with cold water. Please apply an oil free moisturizer once your done.

Today, Im just gonna provide a quick and easy beauty tip
Did you know you could tighten open pores with cucumbers...
Cucumber makes an amazing toner

Well there it is...my quick tip...hope this helps!
Honestly honey, I'm not a big fan of how tomatoes taste but they soon will be in my kitchen at all times. I'm sure you are wondering why??? Well DID YOU KNOW, tomatoes can and is known to diminish blackheads.
When pores become clogged with dirt, dead skin cells, and your skin's natural oil we would then get a highly unwanted blackhead or pimple. Tomatoes contain unique acidic properties that work as an perfect exfoliate. Its a beyond great way unclog pores and get rid of blackheads
Health-Guidance to better health gives great methods on how to use the tomato to fight your unwanted acne listed below.
Remedy Method # 1
The first method is as straightforward as it gets: take a tomato, cut it, and rub it on your face where the acne shows. This method isn’t as effective as some others that will be listed but for minor breakouts it could actually be preferred as it does not involve a lengthy amount of application time. All you do it cut the tomato in half, take half to the sink and smear the cut side against your face. Massage the tomato juice into the skin for a few seconds after application, and then you simply rinse it off with warm water.
Remedy Method # 2
A second method called the tomato facial mask is a lengthier process but it works well for even tough cases of acne. Get a tomato and cut an "X" at the top of it. Run the tomato under warm water for a minute or two, then peel the skin (which should come off rather easily after the warm water wash). Gut the tomato of seeds entirely then take the pulp that you have left and mash it up. Turn the pulp into tomato paste and once the paste is sufficiently smooth in consistency, apply as a facial mask over the entire face just as you would apply a cream facial mask. At this point you’ll need about an hour where you can hang about and just leave the mask on your face to harden and work its magic. After the full hour, rinse the mask off thoroughly.
Remedy Method # 3
Yet another way to use tomatoes in the treatment of acne is available for those who don’t feel comfortable leaving pulpy tomato on their face for an hour or for those that don’t like the idea of rubbing half of a tomato across their face. Simply take one tablespoon of tomato juice, mix it up with about three or four drops of lime juice in a small dish, then apply the mixture to your affected areas of acne with a cotton ball. This application needs to set for four or five minutes to be effective as the acidity in lime juice needs a bit more time than commonly featured over-the-counter ingredients like alcohol to dry out your skin but it works just as effectively given the full five minutes. Once the application has set for five minutes, rinse with warm water.

Do you have a pimple or two? Well don't worry jus dab some toothpaste on it....YES, I said toothpaste!
Toothpaste does wonders for your acne because it kills germs meant for teeth. When u put toothpaste on a pimple it drys it out and kills the germs.
Apply the toothpaste on your zit, for 15-20 minutes and wash it off. Or you can leave it on overnight, let a small piece of tissue cover the area you applied toothpaste too before going to sleep. Leaving the toothpaste on overnight seems to be most effective.
Well if ya ain't know, now ya do! As always I good this helps you!

Not only is cucumber yummy and Delicious when I add it in my seafood pasta salad, but did ya know its also a beauty home remedy! Well first of all the most common use for cucumbers is to improve complexion and to rejuvenate the skin. When cucumber is used within a facial mask it has an amazing ability to leave your skin glowing and allow your skin to be much more soft and fabulous looking.
Cucumbers works wonders for those unwanted Dark Circles. Although you may look kinda of crazy with cucumbers on top of your eyes, its really not crazy at all. The abundance of antioxidants and silica within cucumbers can rejuvenate the skin and leave it feeling soft and smooth after just 5 or 10 minutes of use. Which will reduce the appearance of dark circle.
Q: Can cucumbers get rid of the bags under my eyes?
A: Due to the large amount of ascorbic acid in cucumbers, when they are placed under the eyes they can decrease water retention and thus reduce puffiness overall which works instantaneously!
I think freckles is simply adorable, however here is a good way to get rid of them....When grated cucumber is used as a tonic and spread all over the face and neck it can reduce the overall appearance of freckles over time.
Did ya have a little too much fun in the sun, causing a terrible sunburn? Cucumbers can also provide benefits in this regard. The cooling effect of cucumbers is a natural and gentle way to soothe your skin and speed up the healing process.As always I hope this helps...Please Comment, share or LIKE!
When I was a sweet, loving, good, quiet little girl ( yeah, yeah I know...Ok I was sweet, and loving but quiet I was not and good only sometimes) but back to what I was saying lol...My Mother and I would put egg on our face. As a child I did not understand why but now I do and I'm here to tell ya why you should do the same.
If you have mild acne or extremely oily skin or you just want to have healthy glowing skin then this home remedy is for YOU! Oh and good news this WONT put a dent in your wallet. The home remedy starts with adding eggs to your grocery list. Using Egg as a face mask is good for oily skin. I swear you will notice an immediate reduction in oils. The egg white draws the oils out, while the egg yolk moisturizes. Using a Egg mask also works very well for firming the skin.
It's easy just use ONE egg and beat it just like you would if you were going to scramble it. Then apply the egg all over your face with your fingers. let it dry. Once the egg is dry it will harden on your face so be careful about making any big facial movements. After 20 min of it being dry you can just wash it off your face.
You can use the Egg as a facial mask as many times as you want. I only do it once a week but it depends on you and how oily your skin is. Another benefit to using egg is that is completely safe and has NO harsh chemicals!
Well anyhoo, if ya aint know...Now you do! Hope this helps!
When I'm making one of my favorite dish which is fetttucine Alfredo with grilled chicken, E.V.O.O (extra virgin olive oil) is perfect for my pasta Oh...sorry if your month is watering a bit ....I have to remember this is a beauty blog so I'm about to tell you why Olive Oil is one of the best beauty secrets! In addition to making food taste great, its a natural, hypoallergenic way to moisturize skin, and more!
Extra virgin olive oil can provide strong antioxidants, like Vitamins A and E that help repair and renew skin that has been damaged. Sun and Air, smoke, and smog can damage you skin if your always exposed to it.
Nail and Cuticle Care: Extra virgin olive oil is GREAT for dry nails and cuticles. Just rub a few drops into the cuticle area and around the nail. Your Cuticles will stay plump and moist, and your nails will have a pretty natural shine.
Eye Makeup Remover: I swear using E.V.O.O is the BEST way to remove make-up! No hard rubbing is involved. All I simply do is a light swipe and that effectively removes eye makeup without irritating the delicate skin around the eye area. Another great thing is that when used consistently, olive oil can soften the skin around the eyes and smooth out wrinkles.
Want smooth silky skin? Add some Olive Oil in your perfumed lotions. You can also add a few drops of Olive Oil in your bath water. Watch your step when you coming out tho...don't want ya to be slipping and sliding everywhere lol! If your face is very dry, after washing your face lightly add olive oil all over your face.
Oh and btw the E.V.O.O I am currently using and love is by Bertolli. I get a big Gallon of it from Sam's Club.
Hope this was helpful!
Hey there...Today and everyday...SMILE!!! After all, its a beauty essential we were born with! A great component of a pretty smile is nice white teeth. So I figured I talk about an affordable way to ensure nice white teeth for a perfect smile!
BAKING SODA: When dissolved in water baking soda whitens (and cleans) teeth by effectively scraping off the yellow and brown stains that form with age and wear. The free radicals from the water dissolved baking soda penetrate the teeth’s enamel and lighten the stains from a yellow or brown to give a much whiter appearance.

You can get toothpaste with baking soda in it. However I just like to dip my tooth brush in pure baking soda for a more effective outcome. A box of baking soda is Less than $2.00. Baking soda is also great for other uses but this is a beauty blog and who wants to hear about how good it cleans toilets LOL!Here are some other remedies ppl swear by...
Home remedy for teeth whitening is as follows:
mix on small plate the following
1 tsp baking soda
dash of salt
then add a few drops of white vinegar, which will foam.
Then brush with toothpaste afterwards.
Another Home Remedy:
Use a eye make-up remover pad and put extra virgin olive oil on it.
Then rub on all your visible teeth for 5-10 minutes, depending on how much of a difference you want to make to your teeth. Then brush your teeth with regular toothpaste.
