Natural Beauty Masks

A collection of recipes for all-natural beauty treatments for face, body, hair and nails to make and use at home.

Caroline Artiss presents homemade masks, packs, scrubs, and lotions that will leave you radiant and nourished from top to toe. The first chapter, Face Masks, includes an Avocado and Banana Face Mask. Avocados are packed with vitamins A, C, and E all of which are essential for healthy, glowing skin and bananas are a rich source of potassium and keep skin moisturized and plump. Next, Body Scrubs features a Mocha Body Bliss, an invigorating scrub made from coffee grounds, cocoa powder, sugar, and coconut oil, which not only gently exfoliates but also softens the skin and restores moisture. From the Hair Masks chapter, try Caroline’s Rosemary and Coconut Hot Oil Hair Treatment on thin, lifeless hair. The stimulating effects of rosemary oil help increase blood circulation which encourages hair to grow thicker and stronger and its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help keep the scalp healthy. Further chapters include Hands & Nails, Foot Treatments, Eye Treatments, and Lip Remedies. From tired, puffy eyes to sun-damaged skin there’s a natural treatment or mask here to meet all your beauty needs.
