Quick & Easy Home Remedies for Hair and Beauty!

Top 10 Home Remedies


 Beauty:


For Clearer Skin and Clean Pores: Fill a bowl with freshly boiled water (be careful!) wait a minute or so, and put a towel over your head, letting the steam bathe (but not burn) your face. Gently wash face afterwards and moisturise.

For Thicker Eyelashes: Apply a this coat of Vaseline or petroleum jelly onto eyelashes before bed every night and they will gradually start to feel naturally thicker (this also helps with hayfever-related eye problems in the summer).

For Smooth (Not Sore) Skin After Shaving: Use a thick/hydrating hair conditioner instead of shaving foam/cream.

For Whiter Non-Stained Teeth: Rub lemon peel over teeth to remove stains. It is acidic so don't do this more than once a month otherwise you could damage the enamel of your teeth if it is already weakened by acidic foods like fruit.

For Smooth Lips: Exfoliate them, use your toothbrush on them or better still, include them in your exfoliation routine.


Hair Care:


For Smoother De-Frizzed and Less Dry Hair: Apply about half a teaspoon of Olive Oil to your hair before washing. Soak in warm water in the bath, then wash out with conditioner (yes conditioner), then wash hair with shampoo, then re-condition the ends if hair is prone to dryness.

For Shiny Hair and Healthy Cuticles: Mix a tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar with a mug of cool water and tip over hair after washing, and rinse with col water to take away smell.

For Shiny Hair and Healthy Cuticles: After warm shower or bath, rinse hair with water as cold as you can manage.

For Healthier Scalp and Shinier Hair: Eat salmon, mackerel, tuna or any other fish rich in Omega 3, twice a week.

For Less Hair Dryness and Producing More Natural Oil: Eat more spinach or green leafy veg.
