HACKS<br />
Make this easy seven-step<br />
homemade zesty body scrub<br />
to give your skin a boost:<br />
1. Get rid of the sugar in the cupboards<br />
– Mix one cup with half a cup of virgin<br />
coconut oil – in its solid state.<br />
2. Add some orange zest for a citrus<br />
zing... pop it in the fridge for ten<br />
minutes.<br />
3. Remove the mixture from the fridge<br />
just before you take a warm shower –<br />
Wash as normal.<br />
4. Gently rub your homemade zesty sugar<br />
scrub into areas prone to dry or rough<br />
skin... commonly the bottom, hips,<br />
upper arms and upper thighs.<br />
5. Rinse off thoroughly with warm water.<br />
6. Close your pores; increase circulation, and<br />
firm skin with a blast of ice-cold water.<br />
7. Pat your skin dry.<br />
(Remember to store the remaining scrub<br />
in the fridge for use every other day).<br />

1. Use up<br />
to three<br />
raw eggs<br />
(depending<br />
on your hair<br />
length) – and crack them in a bowl.<br />
(Ensure they are room temperature.)<br />
2. Whisk, or stir together, and add olive oil<br />
(so if you are using two eggs then two<br />
spoons full will be enough) – you can<br />
use coconut oil as well as or instead of<br />
olive oil – and then mix it all together.<br />
3. It is advised to stand in the shower or<br />
sit in the bath and apply to dry hair –<br />
as it can be a little messy!<br />
4. Leave the mixture on for ten to twenty<br />
minutes – maybe with a shower cap to<br />
keep the dripping to a minimum.<br />
5. Rinse with cool water.<br />
6. Then shampoo as usual.<br />
7. Pat hair with a towel and<br />
allow to dry naturally.<br />
There are some<br />
fantastic products<br />
available on the<br />
market, but not<br />
every beauty<br />
answer requires<br />
spending out...<br />
Don’t leave your hair out –<br />
try this seven-step mask<br />
And for<br />
to give a natural shine:<br />
added hair-care<br />
use this avocado<br />
conditioner:<br />
1. Mash a soft avocado up in a bowl.<br />
2. Add a splash of either coconut oil or<br />
olive oil, and mix again.<br />
3. Smear the simple mixture onto your<br />
hair, making sure you get a full<br />
coverage. (You can put a shower cap<br />
on to keep it from dripping – but it<br />
isn’t that messy!)<br />
4. Set your alarm for thirty minutes and<br />
enjoy an episode of your favourite series<br />
or read a few chapters of a book.<br />

5. Once the<br />
time is up, rinse<br />
with warm<br />
water.<br />
6. Pat hair with<br />
a towel and<br />
allow to dry<br />
naturally.<br />
Your hair<br />
will feel<br />
silky and<br />
nourished.<br />
