In the Mix Fridays – 04

Hey Hey Every People!  It’s that time once again!  I’m stepping into the Journey Test Kitchen and try my hand at some homemade recipes for the hair and skin.  This week, however, since Ii’m sticking with the avocado/coconut conditioner, I’m going to be all about the face!

Since I’m working with limited ingredients this week, the recipes will be very simple and straight to the point, using what’s here in the test kitchen already.

Ready to get facial?  Let’s go!

Milk & Oat Mask

1/2 cup of oats

1 cup of milk

3 tbsp of honey

Warm the milk and add the oatmeal just as you would if you were going to eat it. Add 3 Tbsp. honey, or enough to make the mixture sticky. You can also add a few drops of lavender essential oil.

Apply to face and let it dry. Wash it off with warm water. Leftover mixture can be put in Tupperware and stored in the refrigerator for a few days.

Sugar & Olive Oil Lip Balm

Sugar

Olive oil

Mix ingredients until it has a paste-like consistency. Put on lips and scrub vigorously. Store in an airtight container

***

Cool Tea Eye Compress

2 bags of green or black tea per application

Place the tea bags in warm water, steep for a few seconds, wrap in plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for half an hour.

Place the cool, moist tea bags on closed eyes. Recline and relax for ten to twenty minutes.

And awaaaaaaaaaay I go to try these babies out!  Be back a bit later with the results.

Healthy Hair Wishes,
