Let's go ahead and make our own skin care products!
at least we will know what they contain!
EYE LINER AND EYEBROW PENCIL
Buy a pure charcoal pencil (black only) at an art supply store.
Try several on yourself (bring a small mirror) in the store to see what hardness suits you.
You may need to wet it with water or vitamin E oil.
MASSAGE OIL
The benefits of a nice massage are endless. Instead of buying premixed massage oils, use coconut oil and add essential oils in whatever scent you like. Your skin will feel soft and moisturized.
MOISTURIZER
Coconut oil is a wonderful substitute for your body moisturizer. It penetrates your skin and has remarkable healing properties. Use it sparingly – a little goes a very long way.
MOUTHWASH
1. Baking Soda & Water
Make your own mouthwash by dissolving 1/4 tsp. (1ml) of baking soda and 1 cup of water. Put it in a bottle with a lid. This mouthwash can be used for 24 hours. After 24 hours, throw away any unused portion and make a fresh batch. Swish the mouthwash around in your mouth for 30 to 60 seconds, spit it out, and rinse your mouth with water. Baking soda mouthwash SHOULD NOT be swallowed. (It is not harmful if small amounts are accidentally swallowed)
2. Coconut Oil
This is how you do oil pulling: - Swish 1 tsp. of organic coconut oil around in your mouth for 10 – 15 minutes. Discard the oil into the dustbin and not down the drain because it will clog your drain when the coconut oil hardens as it cools. Do not swallow the coconut oil either as it contains the toxins extracted from your mouth. Now rinse your mouth with warm water. Repeat this procedure every day for whiter and healthier teeth and gums.

I am offering a safe and natural alternative to conventional treatment, but these recipes, ideas and treatment should not be misconstrued or substituted for medical advice. Please always proceed with caution and test it first on a small area, or in small quantities, if you are uncertain. Should you suspect that you or your animal have a medical problem, I urge you to seek professional advice.
