These tips are from www.wildrosess.com , it's a website with lovely natural herbal products like soap, skin care, essential oils. - 1/4 cup of dry powdered milk in your bath is a good skin conditioner and cleanser - 1 tbsp canola oil in the bath moisturizes dry skin - apple cider vinegar as a hair rinse removes buildup on the hair and rinses clean - if you make carrot juice in a juicer, mix the leftover pulp with a few drops of olive oil and a bit of honey for a nutritious face mask - peppermint oil deters insects, especially ants. Mix 2-3 drops oil per ounce of water in a spray bottle, spritz on entry points - after mopping/cleaning countertops, vinegar in the rinse water removes oils and prevents growth of bacteria and mold - to remove contaminants from grocery store produce, soak in a sink full of cool water and 1/4 cup vinegar or lemon juice and 1/4 cup salt. Leave for 10-15 minutes then rinse thoroughly with cool clean water - to make your own easy face mask, put 1 cup regular oats in a blender with 1 tbsp dried peppermintput, process until it's a fine powdery texture. Then put fresh or frozen strawberries in a blender until it's a smooth liquid, and add some of the powder to make a paste. Spread on face, let dry, and rinse off with warm water for a lovely exfoliating, nourishing face mask! I'd love to hear your recipes for homemade beauty products, bath products or face masks!
