Beauty on a Budget
Every career-focused woman understands job stress.
Deadlines, pitches, bosses – you’ve got it covered. Unfortunately, there’s no surefire way to prevent worry lines.
Sure, you can shell out $100 for a bottle of top-rated anti-aging cream. Or you can use ingredients from your pantry to whip up a super-mask, packed with enough punch to zap away those ugly lines and more.
Foods such as honey, yogurt and bananas do not just serve as delicious snacks. They actually provide beauty benefits when used topically. Mash the three together, and you’ll have a mask that will moisturize, annihilate dead skin cells and make your skin shine.
That’s not where it ends.
With its healthy fats and mega nutrients, avocado goes great with more than chips. There are dozens of avocado-based home remedies. Watch how your skin radiates and glows, as you mash it up for a facemask like no other. Or combine it with honey for a DIY hair mask.
Baking soda is a triple threat. This secret weapon can triple as face and body scrub, fix for oily hair and a teeth whitener.
There are countless other homemade beauty recipes. A bit of experimentation will show what works best for your skin. Fortunately, natural ingredients rarely irritate even the most sensitive skin.
With the extra dough, you can treat yourself to life’s other necessities. And, who couldn’t use a little more spending money for the holidays?
