It’s not really a recipe but more of a regime. To keep my lips soft and smooth, whenever I brush my teeth, I brush my lips to remove any dead skin and also, if my lips are severly chapped, dab a little vaseline so it can absorb into my lips.Also, if I notice a blemish popping up I dab a little face cleaner on it and leave it on overnight to dry it out. That’s it for now.

I really dont have a favorite homemade beauty recipe because i never thought of wearing anything on my face cause i love my natural look but now i turned 41 and want to try a new look i finished training 3 daughters and now its about me yes me. So i want to get beautified and look younger and feel younger….

My favorite homemade recipe is with my nails mosien lotion over it and let it relax..

As a natural haired sister and hater of every and anything that includes chemicals, I have many recipes anyone can use/make at home for improving the softness, shininess and overall manageability of their hair. I have two recipes for you. One is for “shealoe.” It is a mixture of 100% raw shea butter and aloe vera oil or juice. Talk about soft and shiny hair?? Girl please, you’ll think you woke up with a new head of hair after applying this mixture. You put the shea butter and aloe vera juice in a bowl and whip the two together for a fluffy moisturizer. Add your favorite scented oil (mine is coconut) and apply to your scalp and hair. Prepare to strut your stuff like you were born with this FABULOUS hair! Another is Vegetable Glycerin. Simple add water, vegetable glycerin, rosemary or tea-tree oil to an 8-ounce spray bottle, spray all over your head and your hair will feel baby soft. Now, I can’t be responsible for all of the looks you will get for this new, soft and shiny hair you are rockin’!!! ENJOY!!!

Bath Bombs or bath fizzy is my favorite homemade beauty recipe. I found and tried several recipes on the internet until I came up with my own conjunction! It’s inexpensive to make, fun, you can make different variations of the product, and different colors!

My name is erica frm portsmouth, VA. I really don’t have any homemade beauty recipes. To keep my skin clear, soft and smooth i use Ivorian cocoa butter soap w/ milk chocolate & hazelnuts. It’s an all natural product made by Nubian Heritage. It hydrates, evens skin tone and helps improve skin’s elasticity. It also works to soothe and relieve minor skin irritations. I recommend this product becuase it works really well. Thank you for this opportunity to share this with my fellow bp ppl.

I use the whites of one egg and oatmeal as a facial it tightens your skin and shrinks yours pores. Also during the changing of the seasons my skin peels along my t zone and nose so I get a little sugar add water and use it as an exfoliate. Ok one more, I like to cut up oranges in some hot water in my basin and soak my feet, wash them and use the pumice stone, and when i’m done I put olive oil on my feet then cover them with socks. My feet are soft after that treatment. Just everyday household things are cost effective an can go a long way especially when you can’t afford to treat yourself to a day spa. Hey were in a recession.

My favorite homemade beauty recipe is for a sugar scrub. I use it for my face to exfoliate, but it works on the whole body.

Brown Sugar Scrub:

1 cup of Brown Sugar
1/2 cup of olive oil
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
2 tablespoons of liquid vitamin E (optional)

It smells great and it makes your skin feel fresh and baby smooth.

Well I got this from a friend and actually LOVE it…. FOr a Facial Scrub I use some sugar and some Lemon… use a smal amount of sugar put it in the palm of your hand… cut a lemon in half and just put a couple of drops of the lemon and mix it with the sugar… using the cut lemon half pick up some of the mixture and rub it on your face then with a Moist cloth wipe it off… the lemon is really good for blemishes as well… its GREAT!!!!

LEFTOVER LIPSTICK ON LIPS
HERE IS A GREAT TIP FOR TAKING OFF LEFTOVER LIPSTICK ON LIPS TAKE ANY LIP BALM APPLY IT TO YOUR LIPS THAN WIPE IT OFF

I use sugar, and olive oil, it’s the best to exfoliate your skin leaving it oh so smooth!

I have a lot of favs. But the secret I like to share is Green Tea. It works for your body inside and out. I started to drink a lot of it and its good for your skin and keeping you cleaned out on the inside so that your body has more energy for fighting off all nature of impurinties we encounter everday.

I try to use real mayo, sugar, and olive oil, it makes my face feels like a new born baby, I also wash my face with hot water so that it cleans well, no soap because it makes your face dry.

What’s up BP, I really should’nt be telling this casue it’s been in my family for generations but here it is… U take 1 avocado cut it up and mix it in a bowl and sqeeze the juice of 1 lemon and mix it to a paste, place mixture on face and leave for 30 minutes and wash face and apply your favorite lotion/face cream and you’re sure to have clear, tight and flawless skin. ENJOY!

Well,this might sound crazy but a good thing to use for your face is,cornmeal and water! If you haven’t noticed,cornmeal has sort of a rough texture like scrubs! You apply it to your face,let it dry and then wash off! It makes your skin feel amazing!!! You should try it!!!

To avoid dry and hard lips I take a little vaseline and rub it on my lips, let it sit for 5 minutes then take a toothbrush and rub it in my lips with a toothbrush. Or when my face gets oily I take an egg and beat it. Then I rub it all over my face. It feels gooey and sticky but the end result is great. Once it drys just wash your face with warm water.

When I am having a rough day I put my face over a bowl of hot water and honey. The steam from the water relaxes and exfoliates your skin while the you breath in the honey and just relax. Takes my stress away.

Honestly people always ask me what I do to keep my skin clear and shiny, I use grapefruit, not only do I drink grapefruit juice but I also cut the grapefruit in half and I use the natural juice and use it to wash my face. It works wonders. :)

This one is for those of us whose skin and mind are kinda worn at the end of the week. It’s a green tea and grape oil body scrub. You take granulated sugar, equal parts of grapeseed oil and johoba oil and mix. Then mix in 1 bag of green tea. Put it into a container and put in refrigerator. The coolness on your body is heavenly and the aroma is even better. Your Skin glows and your mind is relaxed from the experience. Now..Have A Wonderful Weekend!

So if you wear locs, try it !

Well my sister gave me a tip one day that if you drink a couple of glasses of warm water and lemon juice a day, it will cleanse your whole body from your hair down to your toes. I, of coarse, didn’t believe her. I tried it for a week and I have to say i have never felt healthier. My face is much, much clearer and my hair feels way softer! Try it! It really works! : )

My favorite homemade beauty recipe accents your smile. I put just a dab of baking soda on my toothbrush and brush at least twice a day. This helps brighten my smile. I also use a very little of vaseline on my teeth to help the smile come with an allday shine.

Beat with mixer on medium speed for about two minutes. Then pour into an empty plastic container that has an air tight lid. Put it in the fridge for a couple of hours to solidify.
