Suffering from dry skin? As we grow older we may start to suffer from dry skin. Of course dry skin is not something that only happens as we age either. You may have tried several products to remedy the dryness and they may or may not have worked.
One evening while watching television I saw an interview with one of the past Ms. America beauty pageant winners. She was indeed very beautiful and I was surprised when they asked her how old she was. She was in her late sixties and she had not the first wrinkle. Her skin was absolutely gorgeous. The interviewer was taken by her beauty as well and the fact she looked so young. He asked how she could remain so youthful looking at her age. “Simple” she replied. “Every day I apply olive oil to my skin and I never used anything else.” Indeed this worked. Even if we start later in life using olive oil it can still improve the condition of our skin. The benefits will out weight the inconvenience that may come from using it. It will be very oily on the skin, so use it at night. Place a terry towel over your pillow to keep the oil from getting on the pillow. Once you start to notice the improvement in your skin the extra trouble you have to go through you will not mind at all.
Olive oil not only softens your skin and prevents winkles, but it also supplies your skin with vitamins and minerals too. You will want to get the extra virgin cold pressed olive oil to use. Just like when you consume olive oil in your diet you want the extra virgin cold pressed olive oil for health reason, so too do you want it for your skin. This olive oil as you apply it will soak in and you will get the health benefits this way too. So yes! Please try this natural home remedy for dry skin. Your skin and you will love it.
Got brittle fingernails? Soak your nails in some extra virgin cold pressed olive oil. Yes, again olive oil will come to the rescue. After soaking your nails massage your cuticles while the oil is still present. A great suggestion was given to me once. Take an empty fingernail polish bottle and clean it thoroughly. Fill the bottle with olive oil and throughout the day apply it to your nail as you would fingernail polish. You will soon find that your nails are no longer brittle and that you are able to grow them long, maybe for the first time. So yes! This natural home remedy for brittle fingernails is one you have to try. You will be glad you did.
Do you have dried cracked heels? You think I am going to tell you to use olive oil don’t you? This time I am going to suggest you use Castor oil. No, you don’t have to take it. Rub the castor oil on your feet each night and cover them with some clean socks. Do this nightly and you will find before long you can wear those cute sandals again and your feet will look lovely. This is a beauty routine that needs to be an ongoing beauty regime. Not only will it keep your feet soft, but it will help to keep away bone spurs. If you have ever had them you know how painful they can be when you walk. This got rid of mine only after two weeks of using it. They have never come back. So yes! This natural home remedy for cracked and dry heels works wonders. You and your feet will be happy if you give this one a try.
Can’t get rid of dandruff? I personally have found something I will continue to use from now on. Have you ever heard of pine tar soap? It smells just like a pile of wood burning but it is the best thing I have found for dandruff. The smell does not linger long so that will not be a problem. It may feel when it is wet as if it has a residue left behind, but when it dries you can tell that it didn’t. This soap makes your hair very manageable. Unless your hair tends to tangle a lot there is no reason to use a conditioner afterwards. You can usually find this soap at health food stores. I get mine from an online health food store where I buy most of my health regime supplies. It works better than the more expensive brands you buy at the stores. So yes! This natural remedy for dandruff will put an end to the snowy flakes on the roof.
Do you often find yourself rundown? Are you finding before the end of the day you have come to the end of your energy? That cup of coffee you had to pick you up has dropped you down? Wouldn’t you prefer to give your body a natural healthy pick me up? One that will continue to keep your energy level up and be good for you too? There is something that can do that for you.

Stir until the honey becomes watery with the vinegar and then drink. Taken before meals will not only give you energy throughout the day, but will also help aide in losing weight if you need to lose. You will get to the point you will look forward to this energy drink. It will begin to taste better the more you drink it. The vitamins and minerals in the vinegar and honey are really good for your body and may help you in ways you never dreamed it could. So yes! Using this natural home remedy for energy will have you finishing the day with a night on the town.
Looking in the mirror and wondering what has happened to your lips? As we age the collagen that our body produced when we were younger doesn’t produce the same. So the once full soft lips we had start to look more like dried prunes. Applying those lipsticks that promise to make them look fuller you find doesn’t do what all is promise. There is something you can do to help promote some collagen in the lips so to return some of if not all the soft fullness you once had. What is it you say? Pull out that bottle of Castor oil. It is not just for constipation or to heal cracked heels. Use Castor oil nightly and/or as often as you like throughout the day to rub on your lips. Castor oil helps promote collagen. Soon you will find that your lips are getting softer and they don’t look so much like a dried up prune anymore. Using Castor oil daily will start to bring back the youth in your lips therefore helping you to look younger as well. You will love the way your lips feel. So yes! Applying Castor oil as a natural home remedy for the lips will make them kissable soft again.
