How To make Scented Shea Butter Cream Moisturiser Finally, today I will be writing about how to make your own body cream moisturiser with pure unrefined natural ingredients. This is probably one of the major projects I have embarked on so far in my natural skin and hair care journey. I will try to make this as short and precise as possible. If you care a lot about your health in and out, you will agree with me that one of the biggest challenges is finding natural products that are not only healthy but can also help achieve that flawless skin we all hunger for. So far I have shared my favourite DIY skincare products that I have come to completely trust but I have frequently gotten questions from some of my readers about how to get an all-natural body moisturiser that will serve the purpose of keeping the skin healthy as well as giving it the glow and right tone.

This article is on how to make your own high-quality Apple Cider Vinegar at home. If you are not sure about why you should bother about apple cider vinegar, please read my other articles about the Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar on skin. I knew a lot of people do make their own Vinegar at home, but I actually never gave it a thought until a few friends requested that I write about it. It was exciting to know that I can make ACV with apple scraps. My toddler princess loves eating apples a lot but not with the peel, besides, she always ends up making a mess of it on the floor. I usually would clean up the scraps which have been going into the trashcan but thanks to this new discovery, I can now produce my favourite face toner and salad dressing at the highest quality and lowest cost imaginable . Organic Apple Cider Vinegar has so many benefits and some people are anxious to try it, but it's not always possible to buy it locally. If you live in an area or country where org...

Rather than buy those unhealthy and ineffective chemical-based skin toning and lightening creams, why not allow mother nature to work her magic on your skin?      RAW ORGANIC APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar on your skin The truth is, cosmetic companies are having us run to the beauty counters for the next miracle in a jar. I am not saying there are no amazing cosmetic products out there with effective natural ingredients. The reality is, most of the time we pile up our cosmetic shelves with products that we do not use after they have disappointed us. This leaves us frustrated, making us spend even more money and time searching for the next product which again ends up making empty promises. You will agree with me that this could be frustrating and sometimes annoying.  So instead of chasing the empty promise in a jar, racing to different beauty stores and loading up on ineffective products that leave you feeling let down by the money you wasted...

Ever wondered if that trusty kitchen ingredient, baking soda, could do more than just make your bread rise? Join me on a journey as we explore the surprising benefits of baking soda for combating body odour and achieving healthier skin. Unveiling Baking Soda's Potential: As a scientist initially wary of its chemical name, I delved into the world of baking soda and uncovered its remarkable properties. Beyond its role in baking, baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate, boasts versatile applications, including as a skin-friendly deodorant. Understanding Baking Soda Chemistry: For the curious minds, let's dive into a bit of chemistry. Baking soda, an amphoteric substance, interacts with both acids and bases, making it ideal for neutralizing odours. Its slightly alkaline nature offers a gentle cleansing action, but maintaining the skin's acidic pH is crucial for optimal health. Maintaini...

My quest for the perfect skincare routine has been quite the journey. Picture this: I'm on the hunt for products that'll give me that flawless complexion we all dream of. Sounds like a tall order, right? But hey, with the right products and a bit of know-how, it's not too far-fetched. So, let's rewind a bit. After ditching the Skinlight Body Cream (thanks, sis, but no thanks) because of its not-so-friendly ingredient list (hello, hydroquinone), I embarked on a mission to find a body cream that could just even out my skin tone without all the drama. Easier said than done, let me tell you. I tried countless creams, including some from Fair and White , but nada—no improvement, just disappointment. Then, like a beacon of hope, I stumbled upon Otentika skincare products. Something about them just felt right. With liquorice extract as the star player, these products seemed promising. Liquorice root extract contains Glycyrrhizin, a fancy acid that boosts those natural steroi...

Having flawless skin is a desire shared by many. While there's no magic potion for perfect skin, there are certainly steps you can take to improve its health and appearance. From diet to skincare routines, here are some easy-to-follow tips that can help you achieve that coveted flawless complexion. 1.

Eat a Balanced Diet What you eat directly affects the health of your skin. Consuming a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats can provide your skin with essential nu...
