Oatmeal
To calm and soften skin, all you need isone handful. Grab a handful of the oats andplace them into a washcloth, securing them with a rubber band. Dip the washcloth into asink full of warm water and squeeze it a fewtimes so the water becomes murky. Splash thewater on your face and let it air dry. Thebeta glucan in oatmeal will have a soothing and anti-inflammatory effect on the skin.
Orange
I buy fruit with the intention of eatingit, but goodness knows that rarely happens.Instead of throwing that over-ripe orangeaway, use it to banish dry skin. The acid in the fruit loosens dead skin from heels,knees and elbows. Just squeeze the juicefrom half of your orange into a bowl with quarter cup granulated sugar and quarter cup olive oil.Rub the remaining half of the orange over rough spots and follow with the scrub. Rinsewith warm water and pat dry.
VINEGAR
One of the most odd beauty tricks I'veheard of: dumping a bottle of Vinegar over your head to liven up dull hair. Between shampooing and conditioning, pour a bottle of non-white vinegar over your head. The yeast and hops plump up the hair cuticle while the acidity acts as a clarifier. Rinse it outbefore you apply conditioner so you don't smell like a frat house.
If you and the kitchen don't fare well together, fear not. Foods with naturalskin-boosting properties are being used inspas and salons such as Clip Joint, which offers facials with ingredients such as pomegranate and pumpkin.
And while you're going through yourfridge, you might as well make something foryour stomach to enjoy as well as your face.Try out the recipe above.
Vinegar is a beauty remedy and aid in the beauty department. Applied externally,vinegar has longbeen used to makehair silky and lustrous.You can use white distilled vinegar,but unfiltered raw apple cider vinegar contains the"mother" of vinegar.The mother occurs naturally asstrand-like enzymes of connected protein molecules and is arich source of probiotics. Vinegars containing the mother contain enzymes and minerals that other vinegars probably do not contain due to over processing,filtration and overheating.
