Au Naturale!

salaam.

Lately i've been telling my friends and anyone who cares to listen, that I drink and cook with my 'body cream'. Yes I do! I even apply it on my hair. So what am I talking about? >Olive Oil.
Extra Virgin Oil in a jar.



How did I decide I wasn't nt applying anymore chemicals on my interior and exterior?. Lol. Well, I was staring at my cosmetic shelf one afternoon. Toomany products. The mere thought of those products being harmful as a result of their components gave me stomach ache. I picked a bottle of my moisturiser, scanned through the ingredients. Nothing seemed natural. So I got curious and carried-out a research online for natural alternatives and I was wowed at the result.

Just like this quote I read somewhere "if you can't eat it, don't use it on you skin". Coconut oil and extra virgin olive oil became my besties. Plus this feeling that i actually know what i am applying on your skin, makes me feel smarter. Lol. Same thing I did with my bathing soups. Substituted them for the good ol African black soap.

Suddenly the sun doesn't feel as hot as it used to. Especially on my face. My skin is well moisturised and it looks and feels younger and silkier. Make-up comes off easily. And oh! My lashes and brows are thicker now. Finally! I just love this feeling I get, knowing that i'm keeping skin cancer and other 'yama yama' diseases at bay.

Try it out. I'm sure you'll thank me. Don't forget to tell me what you think on the comment box.
Peace!!
