Beauty Benefits:
Vitamin E Oil- The beauty benefits of Vitamin E oil are many such as a moisturizer
for dry skin, helps reduce the appearance of scars,acne, freckles, and fine lines.And is the key ingrediant in anti aging creams that help with wrinkles, strengthen nails, and for soft & shiny hair.Both capsule and liquid forms are available in most stores. And for this mixture it will help keep your eyelashes moisturized.
Aloe Vera:
Aloe Vera with its many beauty benefits, aloe vera promotes hair growth, and
can be used by all skin types..and its safe and natural.If this is applied just applied
by itself, its a bit too drying for the lashesand has the same effect as clear mascara

hold the mixture together.

Vaseline - holds the rest of the product together,keeps hair hydrated and provides a protective
barrier against things like dirt and harsh weather..

♦Depending on the size of the bottle you have you could put more, I followed the above and it was
  about a quarter full so I just used more..

I have been using the Wet N Wild's Clinical mascara and my lashes have grown, but I would like to see if they would grow a little bit more, so a co-worker of mine recommended this method...and Im hoping this works..so I thought I would document it here on my blog with updates and pictures every month..

I'm having problems uploading the before picture so I am going to post it on my facebook page, and on here as soon as I can figure out what went wrong.. so here is the link for my facebook page..

Decorating the bottle is not necessary but I can never pass up an oppotunity for arts and crafts time..such fun.

I hope you found this helpful..

Chapped Lip Blues...
 
I am currently going through Chapped lip blues,
since I have chapped lips I thought I'd do a video
on how I like to cure my chapped lips..
 
♦♦♦♦ 
 
Sunday before I left for work I looked in the mirror
and my lips were bright red and I wasn't wearing
any lip product at all...so I knew I had a case of
CHAPPED LIPS!! (insert echo here lol)..the cause
of my chapped lips..not enough water Tuesday,wednesday
and Thursday I had been drinking a bottle of
water a day(16.90z) the regular size, and my body
was used to me drinking 75.0z(full 8 servings of
water recommended) daily for the past 3 weeks..
 
Cure # 1
Sugar Vanilla Mixture
Ingredients needed :
*Vaseline
*Sugar
*Vanilla
*Small Bowl
Making the mixture is really easy and doesn't take
that long to make, simply take a small bowl pour
a tablespoon of vanilla extract into the bowl,followed-
by a half a tablespoon of Vaseline and lastly
sugar.You want to use alot of sugar to make the
mixture a thick consistency..
Step 1- brush teeth
Step 2- using your toothbrush make circular mot-
ions on your lips,wipe away any dead skin.
Step3- Apply your favorite lip balm,leave it on for
15-20 minutes and remove.
Step4- Rub the Sugar Vanilla on lips
You can leave it on overnight and wake up to
super soft lips or leave it on for at least 20 minutes
and remove...which ever way you prefer is
awesome!!!
I hope this helps, thanks so much for reading..
Til Next time...♥
