Argan Oil
Argan oil can help stop hair loss, improve hair and scalp health and promote new hair growth for men and women. A simple treatment applied three times per week can help you see fewer hairs in the sink and more on your head. Exfoliate Scalp Before applying Argan oil, the scalp needs to be exfoliated to unblock each hair follicle and allow the oil to penetrate deeply and do its job. Use an exfoliating product specifically formulated for the scalp that will unclog each hair follicle by removing the buildup of styling products, environmental pollution and excess sebum (natural oils secreted by glands in the scalp). Follow the manufacturer’s directions for exfoliating scalp, then shampoo and towel dry hair as normal. Applying Argan Oil Place a few drops of Argan oil on fingertips and massage it into scalp using a circular motion. Start at the front hairline and work your way across the head and down each side and back. Continue the oil massage for 15 minutes to help the Argan oil cover and penetrate the entire scalp and to stimulate blood flow to the scalp and hair follicles. Repeat this treatment three times per week to stop the progression of hair loss and help new hair to re-grow. Style hair as normal after treatment. Scalp Treatment While you may not be experiencing hair loss as of yet, certain types of scalp conditions are precursors for hair loss and Argan oil treatment can treat those scalp conditions, thus preventing hair loss. Dermatitis, psoriasis, dandruff, dry scalp or seborrhea (excessively oily scalp) can all cause itchy, burning, flaky scalp and will ultimately clog hair follicles and contribute to hair loss. Use Argan oil to treat these underlying scalp conditions and prevent hair loss. Start by exfoliating the scalp to unclog the hair follicles, shampoo and towel dry hair, then massage a few drop of Argan oil into the scalp for 10 minutes 2-3 times per week. Continue the scalp treatment until the scalp condition has cleared up, then massage a few drops of Argan oil into scalp once a week to maintain scalp and hair health.

Jojoba oil is extracted from seeds of the jojoba plant, scientifically known as Simmondsia chinensis, which are indigenous to southern United States and northern Mexico. The total area planted with jojoba plants in the United States is about 45,000 acres and it takes three years for the seed to grow into a plant. Ninety-five percent of them end up in personal care or health products, blended with other ingredients. Jojoba oil is actually not an oil, but a liquid wax. It’s a melted type of vegetable wax and is found in the seeds/nuts of jojoba plant. The pure version of the jojoba oil has a bright, golden color. It has a high shelf life and can be stored for long periods. It does not oxidize easily and will not turn rancid compared to other oils because it does not contain triglycerides, unlike most other vegetable oils such as grape seed oil and coconut oil.

It does not cause a greasy feeling when used on the skin.

It is antibacterial – Most bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus and the fungus Candida albicans cannot reproduce and die when they come into contact with jojoba oil. In fact, it is so antibacterial that it can be used as a fungicide to control mildew. Imagine how powerful that is? USES FOR JOJOBA OIL Jojoba oil has immense uses for skin, hair and face.

GRAPEFRUIT ESSENTIAL OIL
Weight Loss Booster Ever been told that grapefruit is one of the best fruits to eat for weight loss and fat-burning? Well, that’s because some of grapefruit’s active ingredients are super beneficial to boost metabolism and reduce your appetite. When applied topically to the skin in small amounts, grapefruit essential oil is an excellent diuretic and lymphatic stimulant. This is one reason why it’s included in many cellulite creams and blends that are used for dry brushing. Additionally, grapefruit can be very effective for shedding excess water weight loss since it helps kick-start a sluggish lymphatic system. Acne Fighter and Skin Saver Not only is grapefruit essential oil able to help fight bacteria and greasiness that can cause acne blemishes, but it’s also useful for keeping skin’s immunity strong against indoor and outdoor air pollution and UV light damage — plus helps you get rid of cellulite. It’s also been found to help heal wounds, cuts, bites and to prevent skin infections. As anatural acne treatment or skin salve, use grapefruit oil along with nourishing coconut or jojoba oil once or twice daily on the affected area. Stress Buster The smell of grapefruit is uplifting, soothing and clarifying. It’s known to bust stress and works great when it’s diffused, added to bath wash or dabbed on skin just like perfume. Natural Antibacterial Grapefruit oil has antimicrobial effects that help reduce or eliminate harmful strains of bacteria that can enter the body through contaminated foods, water or parasites. Research shows that grapefruit oil can even fight strong bacterial strains that are responsible for food-born illnesses, including E. Coli and salmonella. Candida Killer Another benefit of grapefruit oil is that it has antifungal abilities and is able to reduce yeast and bacteria that are responsible for causing candida virus symptoms, a common condition affecting gut health that can cause cravings. Research shows that grapefruit is effective at fighting urinary tract infections too and might even be “comparable to that of proven antibacterial drugs.” Air Freshener To get rid of unpleasant odors in your kitchen, appliances and bathrooms, diffuse some grapefruit oil along with other citrus scents like lemon essential oil and orange oil. While your house fills with a clean scent, you also eliminate odor-causing bacteria from the air. Additionally, you can use a small amount of grapefruit essential oil on wooden surfaces, countertops, floors or in household appliances to kill bacteria and odor naturally. Circulation Booster Nearly all therapeutic-grade citrus essential oils are capable of helping lower inflammation and increase blood flow. The blood vessel-dilating effects of grapefruit are useful as a natural remedy for PMS cramps, headaches, bloating, fatigue and muscle pains. Digestive-Booster Increased blood to the digestive organs — including the bladder, liver, stomach and kidneys — means that grapefruit oil also helps with detoxification. It has a positive effect on digestion; can help you shed fluid retention; and fights microbes within the intestines, gut and other digestive organs. You can make a homemade massage lotion with grapefruit and coconut or jojoba oil and rub the mixture onto your abdomen. Natural Energizer As one of the most popular oils used in aromatherapy, grapefruit oil can increase your mental focus and give you a natural pick-me-up. When inhaled, its stimulating effects also make it effective for reducing headaches, sleepiness, “brain fog,” mental fatigue and even poor moods. Hair Cleanser You can add a few drops of grapefruit essential oil to your shampoo or conditioner to help reduce grease, sweat and bacteria while adding volume and shine. If you color your hair, grapefruit oil might also be able to protect strands from sunlight damage.

GET RID OF HEADACHES & ANXIETY WITH LAVENDER LEMONADE
Why Lemons & Lavender Are the Perfect Mix. Rather than reaching for aspirin the next time a headache strikes, try grabbing a drink of lemonade instead. Not only can it help ease your head pain, but it can also help relieve stress, anxiety, and depression. But not just any old lemonade will do the trick—reach for the lavender lemonade. Also, according to research conducted by naturopathic physician Jeremy Appleton, the scent of lavender works to change our perception of pain. Appleton’s work indicates that when we smell lavender, we are better able to tolerate pain like headaches. To make lavender lemonade, there are two basic simple approaches that I would choose based on your sweetener and the lead time you have: Make and store a lavender syrup to add to your lemon mixture. With a day’s lead time, I would tend to make a lavender syrup to add to the lemon drink. I would make extra lavender syrup and store it in the refrigerator just to have around. Infuse part of your lemonade water with lavender and integrate your honey or sugar at the same time. For either approach, here are some basic ratios to start with. One reason I like the syrup method is that you can keep adding syrup until you reach your perfect flavor. The problem with that method is that you may never have your perfect recipe on record. Regardless, these problems are nothing that a few more batches of lavender lemonade can’t solve. DIY Lavender Lemonade (With Lavender Essential Oil) To create your own lavender lemonade, the recipe is an easy one. Mix the following ingredients together: 1 cup raw honey (or 3–4 cups sugar) 12 cups pure water 1 drop lavender essential oil, available at health food stores The juice of six lemons Lavender sprigs for garnish Once the ingredients are well combined, cool the lemonade in your refrigerator until it’s perfectly chilled. If you prefer your drink sweeter, add more honey, or take down the sweetness with added water. If you’re worried about ingesting essential oil, don’t be. Though most essential oils are labeled for external use only, it’s only a precaution because they are very strong, according to Now Foods. Most essential oils are safe for consumption in very small quantities, so don’t use more than a drop. If you want to get something that specifically states food-grade, LorAnn is a good choice. DIY Lavender Lemonade (With Dried Flowers) If you still can’t fathom the idea of ingesting lavender essential oil, The Kitchn has a good recipe for you to try. 1 cup sugar 5 cups water, divided 1 tbsp dried lavender flowers (English or Provençal lavender is probably best) 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice Ice cubes Lavender sprigs for garnish The process of making this is a little more time-consuming than the oil method above, so head to The Kitchn for the full instructions. If you want to make less, Martha Stewart has a good recipe, though it ups the sugar significantly. Don’t Like Lemonade? While you’ll get the best benefits from a fresh glass of lavender lemonade, you can also add a little lemon and lavender to your food, too.

Natural Shimmer Lipstick Recipe
Creating Natural Shimmer Lipstick Recipe. A few days ago, I had a mom’s night out at my house and we made all kinds of homemade gifts like lotion bars, vapor rub lotion bars (recipe soon!) and homemade lipstick. The lipstick was the biggest hit and it was so much fun to create our own customized flavors, scents and colors with natural ingredients like (click on the link to see the exact brand I used): Coconut oil Shea Butter Cocoa Butter Beeswax Mica Powders: Red, Bronze, Rose and Pearl Essential Oils We made dozens of tubes of lipstick for pennies each and they will be great gifts and stocking stuffers this year. I’m also packaging up some ingredients to give as DIY lip balm and lipstick kits to friends and family. HOMEMADE LIPSTICK RECIPE Some natural products can take time to get used to, like natural shampoo and it can be tough to find the right mixture for your hair, but homemade lipstick is completely customizable and works better than the store bought right away. You can make them in plastic lipstick tubes or little plastic lip balm containers. If you want to keep it simple, little glass jars also work. Here’s how to make it: Natural Lipstick Ingredients: 2 tablespoons coconut oil 2 tablespoons shea butter or cocoa butter 3 tablespoons beeswax 10 drops essential oil of choice 1/2 tsp (or more) mica powder of choice Natural Lipstick Instructions: Melt coconut oil, shea or cocoa butter and beeswax in a double boiler. Remove from heat. Stir in Mica Powder and essential oils of choice. Dip the end of a spoon into the mixture and let it harden for a few seconds. Test the color and scent with your finger or on the skin of your wrist to make sure you like it. Add more if needed. Use a pipette or glass dropper to quickly transfer the mixture to the lip gloss containers or whatever container you are using. Let cool for 1 hour. Cap and use as needed

Three DIY Skin Care Recipes with cocoa Butter.
Im proud to work with many types of specialty butters – but i have two favorites: Cocoa butter and Mango butter. Now, that’s not to say i don’t use other types of butters on occasion. There are times when avocado butter, kokum butter or shea butter might be a better fit for the soap or the recipe we’re working with that day. But, my most favorite butter to make lotions, body butters and lip balm is from cocoa butter. Here’s why: Cocoa butter benefits. 1. Prevents Skin Dryness and Peeling Cocoa butter makes an excellent skin moisturizer, plus it does more than just hydrate the skin — it helps actually heal it from the inside out too. Natural hydrating products also tend to cause much less irritation for people with sensitive skin while still locking in moisture, since they’re free from additives, fragrances, colors and dyes used in most commercial products. To use it on your skin to treat or prevent dryness and peeling, try mixing it with other beneficial products like essential oils or argan, castor or jojoba oil. If your cocoa butter is very solid due to being stored in your home in a cool place, try combining it with a bit of hot water to make it melt. You can boil some water on the stove and then pour it onto a handful of cocoa butter to make it more spreadable. 2. Heals Chapped Lips One of the most popular ways to use cocoa butter is on the lips, especially in homemade lip balms. It can be used with essential oils like grapefruit, vanilla, orange or peppermint oil to make flavorful lip palms that are also hydrating for delicate skin. 3. Fights Signs of Aging Cocoa butter contains compounds called cocoa mass polyphenols, which some studies have found can help diminish signs of aging, plus soothe sensitive skin suffering from dermatitis or rashes. Polyphenols are types of antioxidants that promote health both internally when eaten and when used topically on the skin. 4. Soothes Burns, Rashes and Infections Rub a small amount of pure cocoa butter into burnt skin to help skin replenish. Just make sure it’s pure and doesn’t contain any alcohol, fragrances/perfumes or other additives that can lead skin to become even more inflamed and sensitive. 5. Helps Treat Mouth Sores If the inside of your mouth is prone to developing painful sores or your lips develop recurring blisters, use a bit of cocoa butter to keep them moisturized. 6. Makes a Great Shaving Cream You can use cocoa butter in your tub to shave and hydrate skin at the same time. It melts easily in warm water and won’t clog your drain. Use a small handful before shaving to prevent nicks and to leave just-shaven skin feeling nice and smooth. After showering is another great time to slather it on, since heat opens up pores and makes it absorb products better. 7. Helps Improve Heart Health It’s important to note, however, that while cocoa butter does contain some polyphenols and other antioxidants, it doesn’t supply as much as dried cocoa powder does. The butter and cocoa powder are manufactured during secondary processing, leaving behind cocoa powder, which has been shown to have higher polyphenol content than cocoa butter or fat solids. 8. Raises Immunity Many studies have shown that plant polyphenols exert antioxidant powers within the immune system, fighting inflammation, DNA damage and cellular mutations, which are the underling cause of diseases like cardiovascular disease, cancer and autoimmune conditions that can lead to fatigue. What About Cocoa Butter for Stretch Marks? Around the Web, one of the most popular uses for cocoa butter is preventing or treating stretch marks, especially during pregnancy. Does this method actually work? Overall, study results have been mixed regarding its efficacy for stretch marks. There’s no harm in trying it for preventing stretch marks, especially if you have dry skin normally, but it doesn’t seem to reverse stretch marks that have already formed. Cocoa Butter Balm Cocoa Butter Balm Ingredients: 15g Jojoba Oil 30g Coconut Oil 15g Cocoa Butter 5g Beeswax 5-10 drops Sweet Orange essential Oil (optional) Cocoa Butter Balm Instructions: Melt together the wax and the oils in a bain marie or a double boiler. When the oils are fully liquid, add vitamin E and stir for a few seconds. Remove from heat Add essential oils Pour into jar Homemade Three Ingredient Cocoa Body Butter Cocoa Body Butter Ingredients Cocoa butter Coconut oil Sweet almond oil Cocoa Body Butter Instructions Melt your solid oils and butter in a saucepan until completely liquified. Blend the three ingredients together in a bowl and then set in the freezer for approximately 20 minutes. Once the mixture has hardened but not completely solidified, beat it using an electric beater until you have made it fluffy and light. Store in a glass jar or tub for months. Your cocoa butter will naturally harden once it comes to room temperature. If you’re wondering how to melt cocoa butter, you only need to scoop a small amount into your hands; the natural warmth from your body will melt it in no time! Silky Cocoa Body Lotion Cocoa Body Lotion Ingredients Almond Oil Coconut Oil Beeswax Cocoa Butter Vitamin E Essential Oils Why we love it Almod oil, coconut oil and cocoa butter are all extremely hydrating!
