I'm Patricia. Like many other women i got frustrated with not finding the right products to use on my body. I began putting together simple homemade recipes to use at home, and I found I liked creating new recipes that actually worked. I choose what to put on my skin and that feels great. I also love products, it's a balance. I use home made recipes and products. It's all trial and error. But I can guide you and share homemade recipes with you, if that's the route you want to go. I can also suggest products that I have used and liked. You won't be sorry and neither will your skin and hair. Welcome to my world of beauty. |



To reduce inflammation or redness on your face try rosewater. It is great as a toner as well. Apply daily with a cotton ball.
Another great natural toner for the face ladies is right in your fridge. Take two eggs and crack open in a bowl separating the whites from the yolk of each egg. Then apply the egg whites to a clean dry face. You can apply it with a cotton ball or a clean blush brush, and apply to entire face and neck. Leave on for 40 minutes and then rinse off with warm water and as I always suggest splash your face with some cold water.
Then put on your favourite face cream. Repeat 1x week.
Now we will move on to the skin on your body which is equally important, right ladies. For dry skin add a can of coconut milk to your bath and blend in. soak in the bath for 15 minutes 2x a week and you will have smooth soft skin.

If you are looking for a good body scrub I have a good one for you, coffee body scrub. Take 1 cup of coffee grinds, 1 cup of raw sugar, ½ cup of coconut oil and mix well all together. This amount will make enough for two uses. This scrub can be used on the entire body except the face. With this scrub you will have a healthy glow, repeat 2x week.
If you’re looking for simple acne treatment try lemon and aspirin. Take a fresh lemon and one non coated aspirin. Then put the aspirin on a plate and add 3 drops of lemon and mix together until it looks like a paste. Then apply to each pimple and leave on for 20 minutes then rinse off with warm water, then cold water. If you have sensitive skin instead of lemon use water. This will bring down the redness and swelling of the pimple. After apply your face cream and repeat 2x a week.

Here is a great face mask for acne and anti aging that works great and is so simple. Take plain oatmeal and put ½ cup in the blender and mix until it's a powder. Then put into a bowl and add 2 big spoonfuls of plain yogurt and one big spoonful of honey. Mix all ingredients together and apply to face and neck. Leave on for one hour and then rinse off with warm water and then a splash of cool water. if you have trouble removing the mask use a wet face cloth and rub off gently. This mask fights acne and wrinkles all in one mask.
If you want a gentle lip scrub take a spoonful of brown sugar and 1 table spoon of honey, mix together then massage into lips for 2 minutes and then rinse off. You will have oh so soft lips, you can repeat this 2x a week. You can also use this mixture on your hands as a hand scrub.
After you scrub your hands for a minute or two, then apply hand cream and repeat when needed.
