Seaweed Detox Mask - Getting ready for the Holiday Season!

What better way to be prepared for the hectic Holiday season then with a Seaweed Detox Mask?

Seaweed Detox Mask
This mask is replete with a lavish blend of mineral and antioxidant-rich kelp and seaweeds, mushrooms and chlorella, this mask is designed to balance the production of sebum while the clays, cocoa powder and activated bamboo/willow charcoal unclog pores.

The ingredients in this mask help reduce inflammation, so it may be helpful when applied to swollen tissues, joints or achy muscles, firms the skin and stimulates blood flow.

The Mask can be mixed with water or liquid of your choice (includes raw honey, yoghurt, etc.). As it dries, toxins are pulled out, cells are fed vital nutrition and pores are tightened.

This mask can be used on other parts of the body besides the face.  When applied it is green. It will not stain your skin.

Our best-selling Seaweed Mask is made with all natural ingredients. These sold out at the last craft show I attended within a few hours. I have gotten many praises and wonderful feedback from this mask!

Made with Proprietary Blend of Clay's, Seaweed, Mushroom Powder, Herbs, Mineral Salts, Ascorbic Acid, Cocoa Powder, Activated Bamboo & Willow Charcoal, Goat Milk, Matcha, and Dead Sea Salt to draw out impurities, clean skin and detoxify skin, and tighten pores naturally.

This is a dry clay mask which means there are no preservatives and allows you to alter the consistency of the mask when applied. Your skin will look and feel amazing after using our new clay mask. 

Less than the tip of a teaspoon is needed for the entire face and can be mixed with water, organic milk, tea, aloe juice or gel, raw honey or even Greek yoghurt. Adding a few drops of a carrier oil such as sweet almond, Rice Bran, Apricot Kernel, Jojoba or Rosehip will ensure easy removal and is an essential step for those prone to dry skin. Use once a week for best results. 

This mask also works great as a spot treatment!

A heaping spoonful added to baths provides exceptional detoxifying benefits; plus, it makes your bath water look like the sea!  I also like to add a few drops of Essential Oils for a luxurious detox bath.

Always follow up with our Face Oil Blend for your perfect moisturizer.

Our masks are good for all skin types. However, try other liquids that are helpful to personalize the mask for your skin.

For Dry Sensitive Skin: Yoghurt, Raw Honey and Oils (Rosehip, Sesame, Argan, Rice Bran, Apricot Kernel, Wheat Germ or Sweet Almond).

For Normal Skin: Whole Milk,Rice Bran/Grapeseed/Sweet Almond/Apricot Kernel Oil, or Rose/Orange Blossom Water.

For Oily Skin: Water, Rose/Orange Blossom Water, Witch Hazel

I do not add Essential Oils or synthetic fragrance to products in order to cover up their pure, natural aroma; it is a sea-based vitamin for the skin. You can always add a drop or two of Essential Oil to your mask if you like.

I also make sure the ONLY ingredients are what you can PRONOUNCE!  It scares me what is in today's products. If I can't read it, I don't use it!

How to Get Your Scissors Sharp Again

Stumbled across this article and thought I'd share it.  We've all needed this at one time or another!

Use a Mug as a Sharpener

If you have a ceramic mug, you have a knife or scissors sharpener! Just flip the mug upside down and run each blade of the scissors over the edge of the mug. It’s ceramic edge is the same as a knife sharpener, but the angle allows you to use it for scissors, too!

Kid-Friendly Scissors Sharpening

One of the easiest ways to sharpen up household or craft scissors is with aluminum foil. Simple fold aluminum foil as many times as you can, then use the scissors to cut through the foil over and over. The foil will sharpen the scissors as you cut.

Sand Your Scissors

If your scissors are especially dull, sharpen them up your scissors in a snap with sandpaper. Just cut a piece of sandpaper at least five times, and the gritty surface will get your scissors’ blades back in shape. Then follow it up by cutting through aluminum foil as directed above.

Get Rid of Rust

As we told you in our post about the many second uses of an onion, the enzymes in onions will actually remove rust! Get a piece of onion and cut through it about 10 times. Wait a few minutes, then wipe the rust. Repeat until the rust is gone.

Scissors Rehab

If your scissors are so old and rusty they need a total rehab, follow these easy steps. First, remove any rust by applying a paste of salt and lemon juice, leaving for 15 minutes, and then rubbing thoroughly with a dry cloth. Then, sharpen the scissors by cutting a piece of steel wool 10–15 times.

To Police killed by Contemptible, Devious, Cowardly, Malicious, Spineless, Gutless, Lilly-Liveried Anarchist who MURDER them.

Dedication to ALL Police Officers

& the Murdered Dallas Police Officers 

Paul Harvey wrote this in 1970 but it is still apropos today!


What Are Policemen Made Of? By Paul Harvey

Don't credit me with the mongrel prose: it has many parents-at least 420,000 of them: Policemen.
 
A Policeman is a composite of what all men are, mingling of a saint and sinner, dust and deity.
 
Gulled statistics wave the fan over the stinkers, underscore instances of dishonesty and brutality because they are "new". What they really mean is that they are exceptional, unusual, not commonplace.
 
Buried under the frost is the fact: Less than one-half of one percent of policemen misfit the uniform. That's a better average than you'd find among clergy!
 
What is a policeman made of? He, of all men, is once the most needed and the most unwanted. He's a strangely nameless creature who is "sir" to his face and "fuzz" to his back
 
He must be such a diplomat that he can settle differences between individuals so that each will think he won.
 
But...If the policeman is neat, he's conceited; if he's careless, he's a bum. If he's pleasant, he's flirting;if not, he's a grouch.
 
He must make an instant decision which would require months for a lawyer to make.
But...If he hurries, he's careless; if he's deliberate, he's lazy. He must be first to an accident and infallible with his diagnosis. He must be able to start breathing, stop bleeding, tie splints and, above all, be sure the victim goes home without a limp. Or expect to be sued.
 
The police officer must know every gun, draw on the run, and hit where it doesn't hurt.He must be able to whip two men twice his size and half his age without damaging his uniform and without being "brutal". If you hit him, he's a coward. If he hits you, he's a bully.
 
A policeman must know everything-and not tell. He must know where all the sin is and not partake.
 
A policeman must, from a single strand of hair, be able to describe the crime, the weapon and the criminal- and tell you where the criminal is hiding.
 
But...If he catches the criminal, he's lucky; if he doesn't, he's a dunce. If he gets promoted, he has political pull; if he doesn't, he's a dullard. The policeman must chase a bum lead to a dead-end, stake out ten nights to tag one witness who saw it happen-but refused to remember.
 
The policeman must be a minister, a social worker, a diplomat, a tough guy and a gentleman.
 
And, of course, he'd have to be genius....For he will have to feed a family on a policeman's salary.
