Apply Your Oatmeal Soap - 30 Days of Beauty

Thanks Quaker Oats! I love a good bowl of oatmeal in the morning. Top it with brown sugar and mixed berries and you're golden. But, did you know that oatmeal has additional uses other than giving you the energy you need to power through your morning?

Yes, oatmeal is not only a wonder food, it's a natural cure for dry skin. And during the cold winter months, don't we all need a good moisturizing skin treatment? The answer, of course Oatmeal with Shea Butter and Brazilian Hazel Nuts Soap

This soap contains ground and whole oatmeal which serves as a great exfoliant, The oatmeal naturally exfoliates your skin, with the addition of shea butter and brazilian hazel nut oil this soap is not only alluring on your nose , it will leave you feeling refreshed and silky soft
Furthermore, oatmeal is great for sensitive and acne prone skin; it can be used as a natural cleanser and exfoliant - leaving skin smoother, healthier and less irritated. Hooray!

Check out just a couple ways oatmeal can work for you outside its normal confines of a breakfast bowl.

Oatmeal Facial Cleanser: Pour about one tablespoon of ground oatmeal into your palm. (For best results, grind oatmeal in a food processor until fine and store in a tightly closed jar.) Next, add a little warm water to make a paste. Apply to face using finger tips to massage into skin. Rinse with warm water and apply your usual moisturizer.
Added Bonus: In larger amounts, this can also be used as an in-shower body wash.

Moisturizing Oatmeal Facial Mask: Pour about one tablespoon of ground oatmeal into a small bowl. Next, add two tablespoons of milk to the oatmeal. Combine to make a thick paste. Apply to face and let sit for five to ten minutes. Rinse with warm water and apply your usual moisturizer.

Coffee and skin care?

Coffee and skin care? It might surprise you to learn that in 2006 in the United States over 140 skin care products containing caffeine were launched compared to just 21 in 2003

Coffee had a hard time of it in the 20th century while the U.S. Food and Drug Administration waffled over whether it was good or bad for you. As we move solidly into the 21st century, more indications of coffee's beneficial properties are surfacing, and nowhere is that more evident than in the lucrative skin care market.Primarily, coffee and caffeine are finding their way into skin lotions and creams because of antioxidant properties and tightening and firming qualities. Caffeine applied to the skin operates in three ways - as an antioxidant, a diuretic and a vasoconstrictor. Among others, Avon, natural handcrafted soap,Neuturogena and L'Oreal have included caffeine in some of their products.For years, caffeine has been used in products sold to reduce cellulite. It's clear that caffeine dehydrates fat cells by somehow energizing them which in turn causes the sodium/potassium component of the cells to vacate. Consequently, water disappears as well. Bottom line - skin on buttocks and thighs becomes smoother.Caffeine's vaso-constricting characteristic also makes it a favorite ingredient in eye gels for reducing puffiness and dark circles as well as tightening skin around the eyes. Of course, nothing eliminates cellulite or troubled skin around the eyes completely. The best you can hope for is noticeable improvement, perhaps only for a few hours.With the explosion in coffee based skin products, it now is seen in body scrubs, face creams and fragrances. A number of products even smell like coffee and contain ground coffee intended as an exfoliate. Some purveyors have even gone so far as to suggest that the absorption of caffeine through the skin will yield the sort of alertness you can expect from drinking coffee.It's claimed that you can receive the same benefits by concocting your own home brewed coffee soaps and body scrubs from used coffee grounds. Formulas are even offered.Hey, now you can shower with your espresso!
