Home Beauty Tips

Okay you all have bleach in the house right? Well, you can use it as a teeth whitener. Yes, my boyfriend does it and his teeth are absolutely sparkling. First just take a tiny capful of bleach , dip a cotton swab in it and gently spread onto the teeth only. Use very little. then brush your teeth with a good at home baking soda, then rinse with some hydrogen peroxide to get rid of all odors, bacteria every germ in the mouth.
Next tip is use Baking soda as a facial mask. First make a paste with a little water and baking soda then spread a thin layer on to face and neck. Let sit on face for 5 to 10 minutes. The soda acts as a purifyer and exfoliater for the skin. ( you can also use paste mixture on elbows and knees nad other rough areas).
Rinse with warm water and do a final rinse with cold. Pat face dry, DON'T RUB, then apply a toner, I use Apple Cider Vinegar and sometime I switch and use Hydrogen Peroxide as toners.
The ACV will help your skin get a PH balance, the Hydrogen peroxide will even your tone by mildly bleaching the skin if you have dark areas aroung chin and cheeks, this works great. Finally, ofcourse, moisturize. You can use your own moisturizer that is formulated for you skin type. Another at home moisturizer is Olive oil, put on a light amount at night rub into eyelashes to thicken and eyebrows to soften and moisturize. Olive oil will make you smell like a salad, but it is a great moisturizer and it's okay if you just do this treatment at night.

Next tip is use Olive oil as a deep conditioning treatment for hair. First dampen hair then apply big globs of olive oil to hair ends ( which are driest) let sit in your hair for 2 hours or overnight. Shampoo out and apply conditioner/ detangler, hair should be silky and soft and shiny.

Next tip is Baking soda again. This time mix a teaspoon of the soda with you regular shampoo and it become a clarifying shampoo. This means you can get out residue and build up that get on the hair from other products,oils, and the outside elements. Also ,your hair will be shinier because you've cleansed off the dullness, sort of like exfoliating your hair.
