DIY LIP SCRUB

Today, I will be showing you a super simple DIY lip scrub that I love!  It is made with household ingredients, so it is very convenient and cheap!  I love Lush’s lip scrubs as much as the next girl, but I actually prefer the ones I make myself and they are way cheaper since they’re homemade! This scrub smells amazing and is adjustable to whatever you might have on hand. Enjoy!

You will need:

- 1 TBSP Brown (or white) sugar

- 1 tsp honey

- 1 tsp coconut oil (or olive oil)

- 1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)

- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Simply mix all of the ingredients together and feel free to adjust the amounts of ingredients to your liking until you get the perfect consistency and sugar-to-oil ratio.  Then pop the mixture into some cute containers and get scrubbing!

The sugar scrub will exfoliate all of the dead, flaky skin off of your lips, while the coconut oil moisturizes.  The honey gives the scrub a nice texture and scent and the cinnamon will increase blood flow to your lips causing them to be plumper after using the scrub!  The vanilla is optional along with the cinnamon, but I really recommend adding this to your scrub since it makes it smell SO amazing.

I hope that you all enjoy this simple DIY and try it out yourself!  It is my favorite lip scrub and I think you’ll love it, too!  Thanks for reading!

Botox Homemade Mask Recipe

Wrinkle problems? Do you still spend money on all sorts of creams in order to get rid of wrinkles? All you need you probably have in your kitchen: three simple and natural ingredients that will rapidly help you get rid of wrinkles.

Ingredients:

– 1/2 of a ripe banana

– 3 yogurt tablespoons

– 1 honey tablespoon

Preparation method:

Bake a banana for approximately 10-15 minutes and mash it afterwards (wait to cool until mashing it). Add yogurt and honey and mix them until obtaining a homogeneous mixture. Apply it on your skin face leaving it on for approximately 15-20 minutes until it tightens a little bit. Rinse with warm water in the beginning and afterwards switch to cold water.

This mask recipe is suited to all skin types. It can be used on a daily basis, until noticing improvements.

Bananas are recommended since they are rich in nutrients that are beneficial for the skin. As well as the substances found in yogurt, they are also effective for skin stretching. Plus, honey provides the necessary hydration. Since it is a natural mask, results are not to be expected immediately. It usually has slower effects in contrast with cosmetic products due to chemicals. Applied daily, we can assure you that after using it for three weeks you will have surprising results.

The mask is highly recommended after going to the beach, as it soothes and hydrates sunburned skin, avoiding exfoliation process.
