Deep conditioners are great for hair. Doing one at least once a month will keep your hair and scalp in optimal condition. Heated deep conditioners are even better for the hair because the heat allows the conditioner to penetrate more. There are various deep conditioners for different hair needs so everyone can benefit from them. Today I wanted to share […]
Rice water has been something I’ve wanted to try for a long time but just recently have gotten around to it. Let’s face it…there is always something new or “new to me” to try out. Some things I just don’t have the time for but others really stand out. Rice water is one of them. Since it is a natural […]
Since my DIY satin bonnet has been such a hit I thought I’d create another version for those of you who can’t sew. I always prefer to sew rather than use fabric glue but this method really works well. I’ve included a how to video for visual instructions and clarity down below so be sure to check that out. […]
Making a scoby for kombucha is very easy! I’ve been drinking kombucha for a while now, probably over 6 years. I started making it myself for the past 2 years. If you are new to drinking kombucha or have never even heard of it, it’s basically fermented tea that contains probiotics. Eating and drinking fermented foods have many benefits. Check […]
Flaxseed gel has been around for years! I’m so sad it has taken me this long to try it for myself. I first found out about this gel from Naptural85 on YouTube. I was recently sent another video from a friend so I decided I need to put this to the test. It is one thing to follow a recipe, […]

For natural curly’s and heat tool users this is especially important. Silk and satin bonnets have been around for years. The ones sold in stores typically don’t last very long plus […]
It’s DIY time!!!! Yay!!! I love a good DIY. Don’t you?! When I’m in a crafty mood (which is most of my life…obviously) I’m always doing something. I recently packed away my fall and winter clothes and pulled out my spring/summer clothes. The weather was playing tricks on me for a while so I didn’t want to go through the […]
After testing Quimica Alemana, Nail Hardener my nails have really grown. (check out the post HERE if you missed it) Since my nails are at a nice length I want to start doing fun nail designs like I used to do when I had artificial nails. I don’t have hours to spend on my nails so I prefer to do quick designs […]
Bentonite Clay masks are an essential part of my natural hair routine. Since I only co-wash my hair it’s important to do a monthly deep cleansing to prevent any scalp build-up. The clay works by removing toxins embedded in the epidermis to reveal clean and healthy skin. I also use this mixture for my face. If I have any leftover […]
Red Velvet and Body Scrub…a perfect combination. I love Red Velvet cupcakes! They are one of my favorite desserts. I’m not a big cake person but something about Red Velvet cupcakes just calls to me. With that in mind I was thinking how I can transform my favorite dessert into a treat for my skin. Red Velvet Body Scrub is […]
