Be a Super Woman!!:)
What woman doesn't love a spa day? Pedicures, manicures, massages, facials, etc...
But how many of us can honestly afford it ( not on plastic anyway..teehee.)and actually have time to go?
Between classes and a full work schedule, or those of you chasing children, cleaning up after children and/or husbands, or just don't have a budget that fits " spa day" every month. I'd say that's probably most of you hard working women.
The harder a woman works, the more pampering she needs? Right? But in most cases harder working= less time for ourselves.( why did we push for equal rights again? haha jk!!!)
So, I enjoy pampering, I enjoy beautiful skin, but I also enjoy being EFFICIENT( super woman, duh!:)). Here are a few at home facials you can do. It's soo easy, All Natural ( MY FAV.) and, you can apply them and fold laundry, make phone calls, ( speaker phone.. duh!)make dinner, clean, or just relax.
These are a few of my fav. All ingredients you already have.
Banana Avocado Mask:
Ingredients:
1/2 ripe Banana ( you can use slightly brown as well)
1/2 ripe avocado ( the softer the better)
2 tbsp unflavored full fat yogurt( FAGE SOO good, and so versatile)
1 tsp olive oil
Leave on for 20-30 minutes or so!( take a bath, shave your legs, or do things you have to do)
HERES MY FAVORITE, I try to do it once a week or so.
Best for DRY skin:
EGG WHITE Mask
Ingredients:
1 Egg white,
1 tsp of water
beat as your making scrambled eggs, and apply with your fingers ( over the sink, you don't want to get raw egg all over).
Wait until it gets hard, 15-20 minutes or so. and rinse with warm water and wash cloth. Best to do before bed, wake up with tight, firm and moist skin.:)
Grapefruit and Avocado
Ingredients:
1/2 graprefruit
1/2 avocado
1 tbsp of honey
1 egg white
Put in blender, mix until smooth. Squeeze grapefruit juice into blender with avocado, honey and egg white. This one smells soo wonderful. cover entire face and leave for 15-20 minutes. Rinse with warm water.
This makes alot, so you can put the rest in your hair, while in the bathtub.:) Does wonders, I promise.:)
When you feel beautiful, and relaxed, we are harder workers, better friends, loving spouses, and happy. Take the time for yourself, squeeze it in however you can.
And of course, another empowering woman song.:)
