I have been gone for way too long ladies! I am deep into summer mode, reading lots of blogs, magazines, and great books. I have also discovered a NEW hobby. This new hobby has been keeping me busy for the last few weeks. I have been cooking up all natural hair and body creams. Oh, and I even made mouthwash for my son. Let me back up and give you the story from the top. I discovered or rediscovered YouTube. I am now, completely addicted to watching YouTube videos. I am trying to remember which blogger(s) had a link to YouTube that started this obsession? I need to place the blame for this addiction on someone, right? Anywho, I have made so many wonderful smelling products in my kitchen over the last few weeks.
Here is my first attempt at a Shea butter based hair, skin, and body whip. It can be used to moisturize dry hair or as a deep conditioner. My father uses it on his feet and elbows (he has NO hair to use it on). I have received positive feedback and lots of great reviews. Before I forget, recently I was informed that my Shea butter is really, African butter not Shea. Long story, so I will save you the details. Just know ladies, that whatever that yellow stuff is, it works! But, I did order the authentic unrefined Shea butter from Coastal Scents. It is even more fabulous and it smells much better. So, ladies please stay tuned for a DIY real soon. Well, as soon as I perfect my Besos Shea Butter Souffle!!!!!! |

Oooh, this will go heavenly on my skin in the winter months since I seem to be one big ash ball no matter how much moisturizer I use! Wish I had the patience to do more DIY projects!

This actually looks like a delicious treat! I would've never guessed it could be used for skin - I love shea butter!

Oh, wow. This is such a cool hobby! If you find a bunch of stuff that works well, you could always open an Etsy store and sell some of it!
