Back to nature is the newest trend in skin and hair care. For years, we’ve been putting toxic chemicals into our bodies that build up and make us feel tired and sick, regardless of whether we eat them or if they seep though our pores. Women are finally catching on that more natural and less chemicals is better.
Most stores now have a line of “natural” beauty products. Unfortunately, they often come with a big price tag attached too. Often times many of these products are not actually “natural” so it does pay to do your homework to ensure you are getting what you pay for.
Fortunately, making your own beauty products yourself at home isn’t too difficult. So if you want beauty products that you know are natural and are also inexpensive, just make them yourself.
Here are 5 quick and easy recipes you can make at home quickly.
5 Quick and Easy Natural Homemade Beauty Recipes
Natural Face Mask Recipe
Eating good food helps give you the right nutrients you need to look good. You can get more of these vitamins and minerals by putting the good stuff right on the skin.
** Combining a mashed carrot, mashed avocado, and a beaten egg with a half cup a few tablespoons of honey creates a great face mask that provides vitamins, and improves the tone and texture of your skin. Just stir well, apply, let sit for about 15 minutes, and then wash off with cool water.
After you’re washed and nourished your skin, you can use grated cucumber or diluted lemon juice as a toner to help tighten your skin and close up your pores and keep your skin looking great.
Natural Hair Conditioner Recipe
Many people pay a lot of money for a conditioner that actually makes your hair look and feel good. Here’s a great natural recipe to save you money and nourish your hair.
** Just mix an egg yolk with a tablespoon of castor oil and apply to hair. Let sit for about ten minutes and rinse out. You can use this every so often as a conditioning treatment for healthy shiny hair. If you like being experimental, you can try mixing other kitchen items, herbs, and natural items with eggs for healthy, shiny hair.
Natural Hand and Foot Cream Recipe
A quick face mask will help make you look great in not a lot of time, but hands and feet require extra care.

* Optional is to add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to your hand and foot cream recipe for a refreshing scent.
