Back to the Basics–A Natural Glow {Makeup Tutorial}

There are so many different types of makeup tutorials of women wearing a lot of makeup, myself included. Has anyone ever told you that you don’t need to wear that much makeup everyday?

Sometimes we need to go back to the basics and have more of a natural looking face. You can have a beautiful sun kissed glow and let your natural beauty shine!

Here is a 4 minute video showing you just how I achieved this natural glow!

It is important to let your face breath a little and put on a little lighter of a load.

This is a great look for me on the days I don’t want to wear a lot of makeup! It is also very important to make sure you take off all of your makeup at the end of the each day!

Has anyone ever told you that you don’t need to wear a full face of makeup every day?
Do you ever give your face a break and let it breath from all that makeup?

Natural Eye Makeup Remover {DIY}

Are you sick and tired of your eye makeup remover burning your eyes? Or maybe it just doesn’t work the way it should and your eyes are raw after wiping them so many times (and probably way to hard).

You are not alone! For years I have been struggling to find the right eye makeup remover for me. I don’t know how many different products I have tried. Out of all of them there was only one that stood out from all of the rest and that was coconut oil!

I know what you are probably thinking: coconut oil isn’t a eye makeup removal product. Although coconut oil is used in the kitchen there are so many other uses for it and removing makeup is one of them.

Here is a short video showing you just how easy it is to use coconut oil as an eye makeup remover.

I honestly can’t believe how amazing coconut oil works. It is natural, safe and effective. Once you start using it, I guarantee you won’t ever go back to your old stuff again.

It is this simple:

1. Start with all of your makeup still on your face.

2. Put coconut oil on your fingers (about a pea size) and close your eyes.

3. Rub the coconut oil on your eyes.

4. Yes it will look you have big black raccoon eyes. lol

5. Grab your wash clothe.

6. Gently wipe off the oil with your clothe.

7. Repeat on other eye.

8. You’re finished!

It doesn’t get much easier than this! It doesn’t make my eyes burn and there are no harsh chemicals! This is definitely a must try, it even gets off waterproof mascara!

Do you like the eye makeup remover that you are currently using? If you get it in your eye does it burn like mind did?

DIY Detangler / Leave-in-Conditioner (My Most Used Hair Product)

Imagine this: You get out of the shower put a comb through your hair and it actually go though your hair. Then you start to style your hair and it wants to corporate. Better yet, your daughter gets out of bath time and doesn’t scream when you comb through her hair any more. There are not more rats nests and life is simpler. Doesn’t that sound nice? Well… I have the solution, “The Prosante DYI Leave in Conditioner”.

I can’t tell you how many times a week I use this product not only on myself, my family members as well as every single one of my clients. For to many years I was spending a fortune on ready made leave in conditioners and detaglers. I personally think that everyone should use some sort of leave in conditioner everyday. It will truly make a huge difference in your life when it comes to styling your hair and the over all condition of your hair. Our hair really takes a beating from day to day, everything from the blow dryer, curling iron / flat iron to the sun, the wind to the harsh chemicals in the air.

We really have to do everything we can to take care of our hair. Our hair is one of the things we are going to have to live with for the rest of our lives and we should start treating it that way.

Here is a short video showing you just how to I made this detagler!

I love Shaklee’s ProSante Hair Care line and use all of these products everyday.

I used an almost empty Replenishing Conditioner bottle (With 1/8 cup to 1/4 cup of conditioner left in it.) Warm 7 oz. warm water and the top from an empty Long-Lasting Finishing Spray. Any spray bottle with work with all of the same proportions.

I took the top off my empty hair pray bottle, washed it out and put it into the new detagler.

It is truly that easy!

This is defiantly one of my top ten favorite products. You just spray and comb!

*Helpful Hint ~ Start combing from the bottom/ends and work your way up to the top/scalp.

Not only do I love the Replenishing Conditioner as a detagler but I absolutely love it as a regular conditioner as well.

Do you want to have soft and silky hair every single morning? Are you looking to simply your life and make it a little easier?

Loose Beach Waves

When it comes to curling hair, there are so many different types of curly hair style you can do. It all depends on what type of curls you are looking for and what hair type you have. You also have to think about the length of your hair and decide if it will work with the curl you want to achieve. Not to mention what size curling iron you will need to achieve which curl.

Although for today I am going to be showing you another type of curl that I absolutely love! This style is great for medium to long hair. It gives a very soft, more natural look. I love this look for everyday but I guarantee when you put on a little black dress you will blow people away.

I also love the simplicity of these curls.
