Get rid of stretch marks...

Hello everyone! For today's blog I am not just speaking to the woman, we ALL suffer from this....stretch marks! Yes, unfortunately many of us get stretch marks through no fault of our own. It's gravity's cruel way to remind us it's there. Luckily, there are many things on the market today that can help with stretch marks, including this DIY:

What You'll Need:

• honey,
• olive oil,
• lavender oil and
• cocoa butter

The honey has a number of properties that favorably affect the body. It is even suggested by surgeons to treat marks and scars. Lavender helps cell regeneration and nourishes the skin significantly. Olive oil also successfully flattens unpleasant acne scars as well as stretch marks. Coconut oil makes the skin shiny, smooths wrinkles and prevents new stretch marks to appear on the skin.

How to use:

Melt the cocoa butter over a hot water bath. Add the same amount of olive oil. Add 1 teaspoon of honey and 3-4 drops of lavender oil. Then leave the mixture to cool down. You can keep it in a jar afterwards. Use it every morning and night!

Smooth Silky Legs...

Good morning my beautiful friends! Today's blog is one of my favorite topics, how to get smooth, silky legs! There is nothing better than running your hands down your legs and feeling like it is super smooth and silky. Here is a quick DIY to help you get those smooth sexy legs you want:

What You'll Need:

• 1 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup oil (I used olive oil, but you can use any oil, coconut oil, baby oil, canola oil, etc.)
• 3 tablespoons citrus juice (lemon or lime) OR 20 drops Lemon Essential Oil
• Razor

Mix everything together. I put mine in a mason jar and just shook it all up. (If you take the glass jar into the bath or shower with you, please be extra careful.) Soak your legs in the tub for 5 minutes and apply the mixture to your legs and rub it in.

The abrasiveness of the sugar rubs off all the dirt and dead skin, the lemon juice works as a mild skin peel revealing brighter, smoother skin, and, of course, the olive oil penetrates deep into the skin and provides long-lasting moisture. Shave your legs, and rinse off.
