Hey girls!
Christmas Eve is (already) tomorrow! Have you picked your outfit and are you ready to shine? ✨ To look your absolute best, try these homemade, natural beauty recipes.
Step 1: Detox face mask
- 3 tbsp. white clay powder
- Rose water (or still mineral water)
- 3 drops of argan oil
- Place the clay in a bowl, then gently add the rose water (or mineral water) until you get a smooth, fairly thick paste.
- Add the argan oil and mix well.
- Apply the mask to clean, dry skin.
- Leave on for 20 minutes, then rinse off with clean water.
Step 2: Cocooning hair mask
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 tbsp. liquid honey
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 egg yolk
- Mash the avocado, then mix it with the remaining ingredients.
- Apply the mask to dry hair, from roots to ends, before shampooing.
- Leave on for 30 minutes, then rinse and shampoo as usual.
Step 3: Bath infusion bags for a relaxing soak
Ingredients (makes about 2 bags):
- 2 heaped tbsp. almond powder
- 2 heaped tbsp. oat flakes
- 1 tbsp. cinnamon
- 20 drops of sweet orange essential oil
- 4 squares of gauze, approx. 20x20cm
- String
How do I make my bath infusion bags?
- Lay 2 squares of gauze on top of each other (2 layers) on a flat surface.
- In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together.
- Spoon the mixture into the centre of the 2 gauze squares.
- Close the bags by tying them with a piece of string.
- Run yourself a warm bath, drop in one bag (or both) and enjoy!
Step 4: Body scrub
- 2 tbsp. almond powder
- 2 tbsp. argan oil
- 3 tbsp. coarse salt
- 1 tbsp. liquid honey
- Mix all the ingredients together (add a little more salt if the texture feels too runny).
- Apply the scrub in circular motions to damp skin, working from the ankles upwards.
- Rinse off with cool water.
Good to know: store your scrub in the fridge for up to 4 days.
