DIY CREATIVES Self-Care - Walnut Scrub

Back-in-the-day my sister and I would take more time from our usual beauty rituals. In preparation for the weekend we would mask, wax, scrub, oil, condition and listen to music with a loud base. Since becoming a mother of seven I don't quite have that kind of time. 

I've been slowly rekindling that love for natural beauty and the only difference is that I keep it super-simple. This recipe has two ingredients and can be kept in the shower. I use it daily until it's all gone.

Try not to fill the grinder up because the oils from the walnut will cause it to clog.

• 1/2 Cup Walnuts (or flaxseed)
• 2-3 Tbsp Honey (local organic)
• 1 Mason jar to mix & store

The best part is combining it all together. It's so fun and messy, which brings out the little girl in me. Honestly I don't know why I waited so long to play with my food again.

It will be extremely gooey but you want to make sure that you incorporate all of the honey into the ground walnuts. When you're ready to use rub it over a moist face in an upward circular motion. You can leave it on for a few and then rinse it off. Showers work best for this messy concoction. *Remember you can substitute flaxseed if you're allergic.  

Speaking of little girls... look who wanted to try it out. Since it was made by me and all natural I didn't mind. PEACE be the Journey.

Making your own body scrubs and mask is easier then you think. If you can set aside one hour on a Sunday afternoon the possibilities are endless. These are examples from a class I teach called EAT IT OR WEAR IT and I have seen participants licking their spoons. Bottom line is that you can step away from harsh chemicals.

BASIC BROWN SUGAR SCRUB

• 1 cup Brown Sugar
• 4 ounces Almond/Olive oil
• 15-22 Drops of Vanilla Extract
• 1 Mason jar to mix and store and I like that it has measurements on the side.

Remember it's food so store in a cool place and use it often. PEACE be the Journey.

Creative Beauty Summer Starter-Kit

 Let me say that quality is EVERYTHING and you get what you pay for so don't skimp on yourself. You're an amazing creation of intricate structure and a wonderful experience we call "human being." What you put on your skin is just as important as what goes into your body.

All of these products, with the exception of the honey, is from a lovely brand called Mountain Rose Herbs. (Link Below) I purchased my essentials through Ubiquitous Journey in Tacoma, WA. (Yes there's a difference between their coconut oil and the ones at most grocery stores.)   

The honey is local (Yippee) and you'll notice two types; blackberry and raspberry. It's important to know that they're not flavored. This is a natural process that happens when the hive is around certain plants and they pollenate the flowers of that particular flora. 

I can't say enough good things about Vitamin E. It's wonderful internally and externally. I also like using almond oil with Vitamin E because they complement one another.  

This is the start to many-many-many wonderful DIY beauty products. I mentioned these items in my #BeautyBabiesBigBoyz vlog and I wanted to share them here. ***Good news I'm teaching a class using these items called "Eat It or Wear It" for Free-University. I will be volunteering my services and all the profits go towards Free-U. That's a whopping $25 for supplies but if you don't live in the area then stay tuned. I'm working with Ubi's to make kits that correspond with my vlogs.***
