Valentine’s Day treatment (body, hair, face)


Today is February 14th, international day of love. I got home earlier to prepare myself, from head to toe, for the romantic dinner with my husband tonight  ;)


I start with the body treatment. I made an anticellulite, moisturizing mask/wrap for the body.

Body wrap recipe:
Dry mustard  – 1 Tbl spoon (improves blood circulation) dissolved in 1 tea spoon of warm water
Apple cider vinegar – 2 Tbl spoons  (improves skin tone)
Honey – 2Tbl (makes skin smooth and silky)
Vitamin E (liquid) – 4 drops (moisturizes skin)

Mix all ingredients together, apply to problem areas, drape yourself with  plastic food wrap and  and leave for 40-60 minutes. It’s recommended to exercise at the same time to increase treatment effect.

For the hair I made another growth stimulating hair mask for the roots, based on mustard and avocado mask for the ends.

Mustard mask recipe for the roots:
Dry mustard – 1.5 Tbl spoon (improves blood circulation) dissolved in 1.5 tea spoon of warm water
Aloe Vera gel – 2.5 Tbl spoons (protects skin, nourishes hair and gives cooling effect)
Vitamin E (liquid) – 2 drops

Mix all ingredients together, apply on the roots, leave for 15-60 minutes, depending how sensitive your skin is. Also, I would recommend testing this mask prior; apply small amount onto hand and wait few minutes, if no drastic changes happens you may proceed with application.

Avocado mask recipe for the hair ends and face:
1 ripe avocado (Avocado is enriched with minerals and vitamins, it also hydrates hair and skin)
Tea tree essential oil – 4 drops (good for problem skin and for dry, frizzy hair)

Mix together and apply on your hair and face. Face mask leave for 15-20 min, wash off with warm water. Hair mask leave for 15-60 minutes, wash off same at the same time as mustard mask. Proceed with regular hair wash routine.
