Avo Olive Hair mask

 Its hot hot summer here in Arizona. Between the sun, chlorine water from the pool and dry wind, it is exceptionally harmful for hair and skin. Weekend is the fix time and today's mask is avacodo , olive oil and egg mask.
Olive oil used in hair masks from ancient times is full of moisture and nourishment to help replenish dry air.Loaded with Vitamin E and healthy fats, the oil works to hydrate brittle ends while strengthening hair to prevent further breakage. The egg yolk truns the dry sumner hair into silky locks . Puree the avacado and slowly stir in the egg white with 2 spoons of extra virgin olive oil.

DIY alkanet lip balm

Image
Here is another variation of lip balm prepared predominantly from alkanet root infused sweet almond oil. Alkanet root is primarily used as a natural dyeing agent which gives red Ruby to pink color based on the amount used. I infused 1 tbsp of alkanet root in 1/4 th cup of sweet almond oil for 4-6 weeks in a cool dark place occasionally shaking. Directions to make the lip balm: Step 1: Melt 1 tbsp of Shea butter,1 tbsp of bees wax, 2 tbsps of alkanet infused sweet almond oil, 1 tbsp of olive oil in a heaf proof canning jar over a medium- low heat using double boiler method. Step 2: Add few drops of vitamin E oil and essential oils after removing from the pan. I used rose absolute. Give the mixture few stirs and pour into the lip balm tubes. Once cooled cap the tubes. Voila, lip balm is ready with the pinkish tint. Alkanet root can be purchased from the below URL, rest of the other ingredients can be found in the same website or Amazon. https://www.mountainroseherbs....
