DIY: Rosewater Soothing Face Mist.

Rosewater has astringent properties and works well as a facial toner. But that’s not all, when it’s combined with witch hazel, rosewater acts as a great cleanser, removing oil and dirt accumulated in clogged pores and thus creating clear skin. If you want to kick it up a notch you can add in Aloe Vera which moisturizes, treats acne, and also evens out your skin tone.

What you need:

• A dozen freshly picked organic rose petals
• A measuring cup/small funnel
• A small pot with glass lid
• A small glass bowl
• Distilled water
• A spray bottle
• (optional) Organic Aloe Vera or its juice
• (optional) Witch hazel

How to make: Pita Chips

I’ve been insanely busy but now I’m getting some control of my time and I’m going to try to be a lot more active on here than I used to be. With quarantine, I know a lot of our eating habits have been whack, but ideally, we should try to make healthier swaps when we can and today I’m going to be showing yall how insanely easy it is to make these pita chips.

For the most basic version, all you need are 2 ingredients:

-Pita bread (Money-saving Tip- don’t be afraid to buy the older pita bread off the sale rack! Your making chips, so as long as it’s not molded, it’s fine.)
-Salt

Gender neutral gifts:

•  Shoes: Figure out if they’re into fitness, get them gym shoes etc
• Perfumes/Body Sprays:  Everyone likes smelling nice. This is a bit of a sticky one because everyone has different and like different scents.
  • If you can get a general idea of the smells they like or their favorite perfume/s you can easily look up “Scents similar to Viva La Juicy (or their favorite)
