Spring’s Fresh Face By: Suria Akhtar Spring is here and summer is just around the corner. Time to come out of hibernation and show off your natural glow. What’s a better way to do that, then to use what Mother Nature has given us. These are a couple of tricks to help keep that natural beauty of you rs glowing all summer long. To start off, lets rinse away the winter and let your skin breath. By just taking 1tsp brown sugar and 1tsp honey, mix together in the palm of your hand and gently exfoliate and rinse. Try rinsing with cold water (the colder the better) this will help close up those pores, and tighten the skin. You can also use this to exfoliate dry lips and the body. Moisten your glowing skin with coconut oil. This is great for the elasticity 5 0 M A Y 2 014 / ARIES and even out skin tone. Another benefit is you can use as little or as much as needed for the body and the hair. It’s also great for a lip balm, I recommend “Spectrum Organic Coconut Oil”, or any organic edible coconut oil is great for the hair as an anti-frizz, but may tend to be too oily for some. Another great alternative is Aloe Gel, you can use a little to help moisturize and tame. It’s amazing to use for styling, that won’t fall in an hour. I recommend using “Aloe Life Skin Gel”. With these techniques are great, first off because there natural and second, they are mostly products you can find right in your kitchen. Look and feel fresh this summer without losing your beautiful, natural glow.
