Homemade Winter Lip Balm
Mint Lip Balm : The often solid looking jar of coconut oil in my kitchen cupboard finds its way onto my skin through out the year as an easy, no fuss answer to needing a massage lotion or skin moisturizer.It melts at body temperature, and is also suitable as a shaving moisturizer, quite the kitchen multi-tasker.
In the hot summer, my small bedside jar of vanilla bean infused coconut oil became quite soft and liquid. This made it easier to apply to legs and arms and backs for warm scented rub downs.
For winter use, small amounts of the solid coconut oil can be melted down in the microwave and poured into small tins for use as a lip balm.
I scented this round with 1 drop of peppermint essential oil per 2 tsp of melted coconut oil. This amount provides a soft level of mint, that is milder than the mint in Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. I think I shall try doubling the amount of mint next time to aim for that Burt’s mint tingle on my lips.
Chocolate Mint Lip Balm Adding a 1/4 tsp of cocoa powder to the hot melted 2 tsp of coconut oil, softens the mint aroma, and cushions it with day dreams of sipping hot chocolate. It’s a splendid combination! The resulting balm is colored in the pot, but doesn’t show any traces of color on the skin. Also, as the coconut oil cools, it crystallizes to produce a mottled white snowflake like clouding in the brown cocoa lip balm pots.
As coconut oil is easily seduced to liquid by body temperatures, I would caution one against carrying these tins around in their pockets, unless a secure tight lid is used.
Note- this shouldn’t be carried in your pocket
as it will melt to a liquid. Think of this balm as a bedside treat.
Additional flavors begging to be made with essential oils:
- lavender mint
- lemongrass
- cinnamon
- chocolate lavender (Valentine’s Day!)
- cocoa butter rose (Valentine’s Day!)
As with any body product made containing essential oils, go gentle if you are unfamiliar with a particular scent. You don’t want to accidentally make a body lotion that will sting and burn you.
… or maybe you do? If so, get your experimenting underway to unveil your creation in time for Valentine’s Day play!

Home Remedy for Dry Skin
Dry skin is one of four skin types;the other three are normal, oily and
combination. But it is dry skin that
is most prone to premature aging
and winkles. One reason wrinkles
and deep lines form as a person
gets older is because the skin
becomes dryer. To combat dry skin
that may also be rough, flaky or
chapped, use a moisturizer. While
there are plenty of body lotions on
the market, there are also home
remedies for dry skin, which
contain fewer chemicals that may
irritate already sensitive skin
Using Cocoa Butter
----------------------------
Cocoa butter is a natural
moisturizer that is very effective in
hydrating the skin. One main
advantage of cocoa butter is that is
penetrated deeply into the skin
layers, while most oils and lotions
only lubricate the top layer of the
skin or the epidermis. Cocoa butter
is made from the fat of the cocoa
bean. It is often recommended by
holistic healers to treat stretch
marks. These marks appear on the
surface of the skin but instead are
formed in the dermis or middle
layer. Cocoa butter contains vitamin
E oil, which is an antioxidant. This
gives the butter a natural
preservative so it stays fresh for up
to a year. Cocoa butter is also
inexpensive. Apply the cocoa butter
to dry skin once or twice a day for
best results.
Using Vitamin E Oil
-------------------------
Vitamin E oil is often used to treat a
variety of scars. It is a natural
moisturizer that is safe to use on
the body. You can get the oil in a
few ways: puncture a vitamin E oil
capsule or buy a bottle of vitamin E
oil. When purchasing a bottle make
certain it is natural vitamin E and
not synthetic vitamin E. The
National Institute of Health reports
that the natural vitamin E oil is far
more potent. Apply the oil and
massage in once or twice a day.
Using Extra Virgin Olive Oil
-----------------------------------
The book "Secret Food Cures" by
Joan Wilen and Lydia Wilen, suggests
using olive oil as a moisturizer.
According to the authors the olive
oil is useful for moisturizing rough,
dry and chapped skin. Because of
its texture it is best to apply a very
thin layer of the oil to dry areas
once or twice a day. Massage in and
leave on overnight.
Using Essential Oils
-------------------------
Essential oils are made from natural
substances such as flower, fruits
and herbs. With essential oil you
can add a few drops to your bath
water for a soothing, moisturizing
soak. You can also apply the
essential oil directly to your skin. A
few to try are lavender oil, rose oil,
rosemary oil and lemon balm oil.
Choose the oil according to the
smell that is most appealing to you.
If you like the scent, you will be
more likely to remember to use it as
a moisturizer.
"Why You Should Drink Warm Water & Lemon"
1. Boosts you're immune system
Lemons are high in Vitamin C and potassium. Vitamin C is great for fighting colds and potassium stimulates brain & nerve function and helps control blood pressure.
2. Balances pH
Lemons are an incredibly alkaline food, believe it or not. Yes, they are acidic on their own, but inside our bodies they're alkaline (the citric acid does not create acidity in the body once metabolized). As you wellness warriors know, an alkaline body is really the key to good health.
3. Helps with weight loss
Lemons are high in pectin fiber, which helps fight hunger cravings. It also has been shown that people who maintain a more alkaline diet lose weight faster. And, my experience is that when I start the day off right, it's easier to make the best choices for myself the rest of the day.
4. Aids digestion
The warm water serves to stimulate the gastrointestinal tract and peristalsis—the waves of muscle contractions within the intestinal walls that keep things moving. Lemons and limes are also high in minerals and vitamins and help loosen ama, or toxins, in the digestive tract.
5. Acts as a gentle, natural diuretic
Lemon juice helps flush out unwanted materials because lemons increase the rate of urination in the body. Toxins are, therefore, released at a faster rate which helps keep your urinary tract healthy.
6. Clears skin
The vitamin C helps decrease wrinkles and blemishes. Lemon water purges toxins from the blood which helps keep skin clear as well.
7. Hydrates the lymph system
This cup of goodness helps start the day on a hydrated note, which helps prevent dehydration (obviously) and adrenal fatigue. When your body is dehydrated, or deeply dehydrated (adrenal fatigue) it can't perform all of it's proper functions, which leads to toxic buildup, stress, constipation, and the list goes on. Your adrenals happen to be two small glands that sit on top of your kidneys, and along with your thyroid, create energy. They also secrete important hormones, including aldosterone. Aldosterone is a hormone secreted by your adrenals that regulates water levels and the concentration of minerals, like sodium, in your body, helping you stay hydrated. Your adrenals are also responsible for regulating your stress response. So, the bottom line is that you really don't want to mess with a deep state of dehydration!

HOW TO TIGHTLINE EYES
Tight-lining your eyes (also known as the "invisible eye liner") is a great way to add a subtle definition to your eyes. Instead of lining the skin above your lashes, you line between the lash line. This method is perfect for any casual or fancy occasion, and is super easy to master. Keep reading to learn how to tight-line your eyes with a pencil or gel eye liner!HOW TO Tight-line Eyes with Pencil or Gel Eye Liner
Using clean fingers, gently lift your lashes upward (this step is only necessary if you find it easier to tight-line). You'll see tiny gaps between your lash hairs, which you'll be filling in with eye liner.
Using either a gel or pencil eye liner, lightly dab the eye liner in between each individual lash (as close to the root as possible), to fill in your lash line and make it look fuller. Start at the the inner and work to the outer corner of your eye. Congratulations, you've officially tight-lined your eyes!
To intensify the look, tightline your bottom lash line as well. It's the same concept as the top, but you'll be filling in the space between your lower lashes.

Coconut Oil for Skin
In order to understand the role of coconut oil on the skin, we have to go through the process of wrinkle formation. The skin is made up of connective tissues, which are responsible for it1s elasticity and smoothness. In young people, these tissues are strong and with age, free-radical attack breaks them down and the skin looses its elasticity as well as its strength. It has been observed that a free radical attack can lead to a chain of such reactions and as a result the skin looses its smoothness and develops wrinkles. This can be countered with the help of antioxidants, which can stop the chain reaction caused by the free radicals. The body must get sufficient antioxidants from the diet and refined vegetable oils do not contain natural antioxidants.It is also claimed that these refined oils may promote the production of free radicals in the body. You can also tackle this problem with the help of skin products with antioxidants. As most of the commercial skin products lack antioxidants, coconut oil is considered to be best for skin care as it is loaded with antioxidants, which can fight free radicals and prevent aging. It can penetrate the deeper layers of the skin and strengthen the connective tissues.
Benefits of Coconut Oil for Skin
By fighting the free radical attacks on the skin, coconut oil can give you smooth and supple skin, free of wrinkles and blemishes. Hence, coconut oil as a skin moisturizer is very popular and widely accepted. It aids the skin in getting rid of the dead cells and give you a smooth and glossy look. This oil can protect you from the blemishes caused as a result of aging and sunlight exposure. Apart from enhancing the appearance of the skin, coconut oil is also useful in curing acne, wounds, rashes, burns and skin inflammation. It is also believed that it can improve the complexion, apart from protecting the skin from getting dry and flaky. Coconut oil is considered as one of the best massage oils. Unlike mineral oils, which can sometimes cause side effects, coconut oil is found to be completely safe for use in massages. Even though, there are three to four types of coconut oil available in the market, virgin coconut oil is the best for skin. You can even make coconut oil at home, especially virgin coconut oil.
Owing to the benefits of coconut oil for skin care, many of the skin care products, like soaps, lotions, creams, etc. have this oil as one of the main ingredients. It is also used in the treatment of some skin problems, like eczema and psoriasis. Apart from skin care, coconut oil is used for hair care too. You too can adopt the practice of using coconut oil, for achieving a young and healthy skin.
