Homemade leave-in conditioner/ detangler

This was a hard one to figure out. Having blonde hair means you can't use the normal leave-in recipes you find online. That's right! Mayonnaise will not make my hair silky smooth. It will leave it a greasy mess. So after doing tons of research and trials, I found an amazing leave-in recipe.

You'll need an eight oz squirt bottle, distilled/filtered water, jojoba oil, and your favorite essential oil.
In the squirt bottle pour in about a tablespoon of jojoba oil and add the distiller water to the top. Leave a little bit of room for the top to go on. Lastly add a few drops (to your liking) of the essential oil of your choice. Put the top on, shake, and spray!


Only spray a few sprays. You don't need much at all. I spray my ends and then one spray for the rest of my hair. Brush or comb to make sure it evenly distributed and your done! Enjoy! Let me know what you think! :)

Get your sugar scrub on!

So after looking up tons of recipes and how to videos, I decided to just jump in! I made my first sugar scrub! It was so simple. I took a little bit of sugar, my choice of oil, some essential oils for an amazing smell, and some secret add ins ;). Thats it! Mix it all together and you're ready to go!



After trying it out my skin felt so smooth and soft. I was so excited about my masterpiece I made (wasn't that hard) my hubby try it. He wanted to eat it...lol. I also packaged some up for my friend. Who by the way loved it it too! Overall sugar scrub project is a success.
