Natural Beauty Tips

LOOK GOOD – with Disna

* Banana and Egg Hair Treatment:

Looking for a little more shine in your hair? Simply mix one egg and a mashed up banana. Apply it as a thick paste to your hair and leave it on for 10-30 minutes. Wash it our doing your usual hair washing ritual (if you usually use a store-bought conditioner you’ll probably only need to condition the ends).

* Moisturising Nail Treatment:

Soak your nails in olive oil for five minutes. And then sit back and admire your pretty hands.

* Honey Face Mask:

Raw honey is naturally anti-bacterial and a super quick way to get soft, beautiful skin. Once a week, use a tablespoon of raw honey (not the processed stuff, parading as honey) and gently warm it by rubbing your fingertips together. Spread on your face. Leave on for 5-10 minutes and then use warm water to gently rinse it off and pat dry.

* Elbow and Knee Exfoliate/Skin Brightener:

Cut an orange in half and rub it on your elbows and knees. Helps soften those rough patches. And it smells good. (Rinse off the sticky mess when you are done.)

* Gentle Body Scrub:

Mix a 2 to 1 ratio of olive oil and sea salt to make a quick and effective body scrub. This helps get rid of dead skin cells, creating softer, more glowing skin.

* Deep Conditioning Hair Treatment:

Use melted coconut oil as a deep conditioning hair and scalp treatment. Massage coconut oil into your scalp and then work it through your hair. Leave it on for a couple of hours and then wash it out using shampoo (no need to condition unless you have really long hair and then maybe just the ends.)

* Toxic-Free Shaving Cream:

Use coconut oil on your legs as a natural replacement for your shaving cream.

* Black Head Removal:

Place four or five drops of raw honey on an open lemon wedge. Then rub the lemon on your face for a minute. Leave the mixture on for five minutes and rinse with cold water. (Keep in mind that citrus can make your skin photo-sensitive, so it’s best to do this before bed rather than before going outside).
