The ingredients used in this homemade after sun spray have been specifically chosen for their soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. 🪻 Lavender Lavender essential oil is very well-known for its ability to help soothe and repair occasional skin irritations, due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. 🌿 Peppermint Peppermint essential oil delivers a soothing, cooling sensation to the skin due to the properties of menthol in the plant. 🪴 Aloe Vera Aloe vera gel is great for relieving pain and redness as a result of skin inflammation, due to its powerful anti-inflammatory properties, as well as acts as a wonderful moisturiser, helping to prevent the peeling skin that can often arise after a sunburn. The gel encourages the production of collagen, which aids in the healing process of the skin, helping to improve the firmness, dryness and elasticity of the skin. 🍃 Witch Hazel Witch hazel contains anti-inflammatory properties (just like aloe vera) which may help in reducing the discomfort that comes with sunburn. It can be particularly soothing if paired with aloe vera. RECIPE: 🌱 1/2 cup witch hazel 🌱 2 tablespoons pure aloe vera gel 🌱 5 drops lavender essential oil 🌱 5 drops peppermint essential oil 🌱 2 drops helichrysum essential oil 🌱 1/2 teaspoon natural solubiliser (dispersant) 🌱 4 oz (or larger) glass spray mist bottle To Make: 1. In a small bowl, blend the essential oils with the natural solubiliser, ensuring the mixture is well combined. 2. Add the witch hazel to the glass spray bottle, then pour in the essential oil solution and cap the lid on tightly. Shake the bottle well to combine the ingredients together. 3. Apply this spray generously onto the affected areas of the skin for relief. 4. Store this spray between uses in the refrigerator and use within 1 month of making. Avoid spraying the solution around the eyes, as it may cause irritation. 5. Re-apply this spray as often as needed. #aftersunspray #herbalremedies #naturalskincare #naturalremedies #sunburn

How to make a homemade tooth powder that can help in remineralising the teeth using natural ingredients like bentonite clay, calcium powder, baking soda, herbs, and spices. The main ingredient in this tooth powder recipe is bentonite clay, which binds to and draws out heavy metals and toxins, a big plus for the mouth as it’s a gateway for viruses, pathogens and bacteria to enter the body. This tooth powder also delivers a hit of minerals, and may help to alkalise the mouth as well. The other ingredients used help support oral health include baking soda, which helps in removing stains on the teeth; calcium powder which may deliver an extra boost of calcium and assist in whitening the teeth; ground cloves and cinnamon, which provide antibacterial properties to this tooth powder and give the powder a more pleasant taste; sage, an antimicrobial which may help to neutralise microbes that promote dental plaque; and mint, which can be soothing on the gums, and provides a nice taste to the powder. RECIPE: 🌿 2 tablespoons bentonite clay (do not use metal utensils handling the clay, as it may interact with it) 🌿 3 tablespoons calcium carbonate powder 🌿 1 tablespoon baking soda (omit if you have sensitive teeth) 🌿 2 tablespoons ground mint or 10 drops peppermint essential oil 🌿 1/2 teaspoon ground sage or 4 drops sage essential oil 🌿 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon or 4 drops cinnamon essential oil 🌿 1-2 teaspoons ground cloves or 5 drops clove essential oil 🌿 1 tablespoon xylitol powder (optional) To Make: 1. Using a non-metal spoon, add all the ingredients to a glass jar or container and mix well to combine the ingredients together. 2. To use this tooth powder, dip a clean toothbrush into the powder and brush the teeth well before rinsing as normal. #remineralisingtoothpowder #remineralising #toothpowder #healthyteeth

Some exciting news... My latest creation! ✨️❤️ This light body moisturiser is made with only a handful of natural ingredients, including cocoa butter, jojoba oil, vitamin E oil, rose water, and essential oil of rose. That's it! No nasties. It's ideal for sensitive skin types, providing a nourishing layer of hydration to the skin that leaves skin feeling soft and smooth after using. The skin can absorb anything placed on it, in 30 seconds or more, so you want your cream to be made of natural ingredients, not chemical, otherwise this can add to the toxin load of the body.

This DIY Hair Growth Spray recipe helps to nourish the scalp and strengthen hair naturally without the chemicals and parabens often found in commercial hair care products. Most over-the-counter hair growth treatments contain minoxidil, a chemical that only works as long as the treatment is being used. As soon as the treatment stops, hair growth stops, too. Rosemary has been found to promote hair growth in a number of studies. In 2015, a randomised comparative trial was published that looked at the effectiveness of rosemary essential oil when compared with minoxidil 2% (a common treatment used to help hair growth). 100 people with the condition androgenetic alopecia, a genetic and hormonal condition that can result in baldness, were studied and, for 6 months, 50 of these subjects were randomly assigned to use rosemary oil, while the other 50 used minoxidil 2%. After 6 months, the results showed that both groups experienced a significant increase in hair count, suggesting that rosemary may be just as effective in treating hair loss as the conventional treatment minoxidil. RECIPE: 🌿 10 drops of rosemary essential oil 🌿 5 drops of lavender essential oil 🌿 5 drops cedarwood essential oil 🌿 3 drops clary sage essential oil 🌿 1/2 tsp natural solubiliser 🌿 1/2 cup rosemary hydrosol 🌿 4 oz glass spray bottle To Make: 1. Combine the essential oils together in a small bowl along with the solubiliser and stir together with a spoon to combine. 2. Add the hydrosol to the glass spray bottle, then carefully pour in the essential oil mix and cap the lid on tightly. Shake the bottle well to combine the ingredients. 3. Store the hair growth spray in a cool, dry, place out of direct sunlight. 4. To use this spray, mist the solution onto the scalp 1 to 2 times daily. Comb the solution through the hair to ensure the solution is distributed evenly. #hairgrowth #haircare #hairgrowthspray #naturalhaircare
