1 product that does EVERYTHING

Its always hard to find a product that u can have multiple use for, and if more products were like such, things would be so much easier! well... There is one product that you can totally use for EVERYTHING. Hair, Skin and body...!! So what product am I talking about?!?!?!!?!
Aloe Vera Gel! Yes! Not only can u use it for LITERALLY everything, its super inexpensive!!!

Aloe Vera Gel is usually used to heal scars, great for moisturizing skin, and keeping acne in control. BUT that's not all! It has internal benefits as well for joint pain and reducing inflammation, and keeping the digestive tract regular! 

I usually get the organic one from store, but I came across this one and its working just fine! The greatest thing about it is, I use it on my body, face and my hair!!!! 

It has been keeping my hair feeling AMAZZZZZZZZINGGG, soft and shiny!! 
So I take a little dab, while my hair is still damp and then run a comb or brush through to distibute evenly! It works as an awesome detangler and makes your hair feel weightless!
EVERYONE should have this and use it daily! Best stuff ever!!!!!! 

Aloe Vera Gel can be found at your local grocery store, drug store, and vitamin store!

For Acne this product is great, but u can add a few drops of Tea Tree Oil and apply it as a spot treatment, or all over!

Easy Hair Maintenance!

How to keep your locks in tact! I've never had major hair issues.. no split ends, nothing.. till recently when my hair became disgustingly frail, thin and hideous. It became so dry and weak all of a sudden.. until I started taking Biotin, but that's not my only secret..

I don't blow dry, straighten or curl my hair (but once or 2x a month- or depends on the occasion) but all my tools are ceramic and ion based and I try to use some sort of serum or hair protectant when I do use anything and 99.9% I don't use hairspray or mousse either.. This way I have less to worry about for a long periods of time..

One of the best solutions is changing up your shampoo and conditioner every other day or so.. I don't have a specific schedule on what I use, what day.. but I use a clean- organic/vegan based shampoo, voluminous, and hydrating shampoo- YES 3 shampoos! I also switch up my conditioners, one for smoothing out hair, and one for volume.. or hydration- Right now I'm between two of them.

My hair keeps from flattening out and looking dull. Using any brand but with those basis, keeps my hair looking fresh daily- and yes, I wash it EVERYDAY! It doesn't really get frizzy and has loads of movement! Try it out!! you'll see a huge difference right away!

BEST SUMMER TIME MASK

Majority of my entries have been on SKIN lately. In order to have a smooth canvas for makeup application, smooth healthy skin is vital! And obviously, I am uber conscious of my skin and hardly put makeup on it cuz I get so paranoid I might clog a pore and or break out!!! But lately, with the products I'm using makeup and skin I haven't had that much of an issue, especially because I'm drinking loads of agua, when you have to wear makeup all the time, and have a busy schedule the best thing to do is drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. In one week you will notice a striking difference. Its the best/quickest most convenient skin fix solution ever! and quite affordable, so take advantage of it :D

For my next bit, per title- last summer in August, I thought Id try a cucumber mask on my face rather than just my eyes, my skin felt so refreshed it was amazing! This was the quickest fix to hydrate the skin, I came come, had to get ready to go to an event, It was easy to make, and took a few minutes to keep on the skin.  I got the idea from the concept that cucumbers bring down the bags, cool eye area, bring down any sort of swelling, probably a bit of redness etc. So what I did was, I took a 1/4 of a cucumber, probably less than that..used a Cheese Grater, - mum uses it for carrots for halva- (keepin it real).. grated the cucumber, and threw it on my face LITERALLY.  If your gonna lay down and do this, like I did.. then use a towel b/c it gets real messy.. but it feels SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOODD!!! - If you Google cucumber masks, you'll find an array of masks with multi-ingredients, if your in a hurry and need a boost of hydration and all the other benefits that are provided from this mask you can do it with a cucumber alone!

Recently, when I was on my hunt for natural skincare masks and remedies I came across this, for cucumber masks- and yes they actually do use em on the face, a tad late on my own idea :/ Cucumbers, have antiseptic ingredients that heal the skin. This mask will help tighten pores, reduce inflammation and control oil and shine. Perfect for the summer time weather! Enjoy!
