Tips on Health & Beauty on a Boat
It's sometimes hard to find good beauty products while traveling in some of the out-of-the-way places that we cruise. Here's a few all natural beauty products...
Exfoliation
Ground up chick peas make a great exfoliate. Drain canned chick peas, mash & rub on your face or body, then rinse well.
Facial Cleanser
Mix 1/2 cup oatmeal or cornmeal and plain yogurt (add enough yogurt to form a paste). Smooth over entire face avoiding eye area. Wash off with warm water.
Facial Masks
- Normal, combination or oily skin: mix one egg white, 1/2 cup cooked oatmeal, a tsp. olive oil and couple drops of lemon juice until smooth. Spread on face & neck. Leave on for 15-30 minutes then rinse with warm water.
- Dry skin: mix one egg yolk, 1 tsp. honey and 1 tsp. olive oil along with some vitamin E oil. Or: mix ground dry oatmeal, honey and plain yogurt into a paste. Spread on face & neck. Leave on for 15-30 minutes then rinse with warm water.
