Beauty Hacks Using Food!

 
Who would've thought food wasn't just for eating. Over the past couple of years I have found new ways to use the foods that I eat. If you do not like using products for your skin or your hair, don't worry I got you! If you're into natural ingredients I have a few alternatives for you. 

Lemons 
This is great way to lighten those darken elbows or underarms. I was kind of shocked when I saw it actually works. If you want to use the lemon as a scrub, just add regular sugar to it. I wouldn't use that as a facial though because regular sugar is hard, so that would probably be painful. If you don't want to use lemons, I hear potatoes are a great substitute!

Eggs
Eggs are protein and it's a good source of nutrients. Not only that but it's great for the skin and hair. You can make a face mask or a hair mask. I don't really know which one is more gross, but they will get the job done!

Bananas
If you prefer not to use eggs, I wouldn't blame you. As a substitute you can use Bananas! I don't know about using them for your hair, but their great for you skin. You can definitely use Bananas for another face mask ingredient! You're will have a soft feeling and look very hydrated.
Cucumbers
If you experience puffy eyes, cucumbers are here to assist you. I hear people saying this really works. Well, this is what I think. While cucumbers do soothe your eyes and minimize the puffiness, it doesn't completely go away. The rest is up to you! You need to get a good nights sleep. 

Mayonnaise 
I love mayonnaise on my sandwich not my hair. Because of the fat and protein mayo has its good for helping your hair become or stay healthy. It's also know to make your hair shiny. 
 
I hope you found these hacks helpful! If you already use these hacks or have some of your own. let me know.

  2. I love the lemon tip but it's best not to use it on your face.
    Sugar and olive oil mixed together makes for a great DIY lip scrub!

E.l.f. Eye Brushes

Although this haul is very small, I just wanted to share with you what I brought. I decided to buy brushes, because I needed them more! The first brushes I were eco-friendly and were really good, but their were more face brushes, then eye brushes. So that wasn't really helpful to me. It was only one eye shadow brush. I rarely shop online, I always go to the store. But I was bored one day and I guess this is what happened! I am really excited to try these brushes! I also brought some things from BH cosmetics, but that's for another post! Eye Shadow Brush The eye shadow brush is supposed to help apply the eye shadow evenly and make it easier. This sounds good, because the brushes I used in the past were tough and hard. It seemed like I had to put a lot of eye shadow on, before it actually showed up on my eyes. Blending Eye Brush This brush is supposed to blend the eye shadows, while softening dramatic edges and lines. This is really good, because before I h...

Self Love Is So Important!

  Has there ever been a time where you felt unworthy? Unworthy of someone loving and caring for you. Have you ever disliked yourself so much, to the point where you would go into a dark place? I ask these questions not to necessarily get an answer back, but to let you know this happens to a lot of people. Self love is so important and everyone should feel good about themselves. Unfortunately in today's world that isn't the case at all. Society puts a label on what people should and should not look that. People judge one another 24 hours, 7 days a week and it's wrong. I've wanted to write this for a while now, but sometimes it's difficult. You don't want to offend anyone, but you also want to bring awareness to this topic. I'm not an expert on how to love yourself, but I do know what it's like to not have confidence. I know what it feels like to not think you're good enough, even when people tell you that you are.    I use to think I was I wa...

BH Cosmetics Eyebrow Tweezer

  Going to get your brows waxed costs money, so with that being said I rather do my own. Although I am not a professional I think I can manage. I do not wax my eyebrows. To be honest I have never waxed or tried to wax my brows. If you're like me in the department of not waxing, you find other ways to style (fix) your brows. For me I have only tried two products; one will be in this post and the other is linked here: Brow kit !     I have learned to love my brows just the way they are. But they do deserve to pampered at the same time. If I have a few eyebrow hairs that do not belong, I want something quick and easy to fix this. That is why I have my bh cosmetics eyebrow tweezer. I have written a few posts on bh cosmetics products, but I am not affiliated with them in any way. I just simply love their products because its still high quality products, but at a cheaper price. This is great because not everyone wants to spend a lot or are maybe on a bu...
