Natural Eyebrow Gel


 You guys know I love natural items, especially for my body.
I like doing the research and blogging about it.
I am for sure making this. My eyebrows are thinning
and not shaping well. I love, love this recipe and
it's only 5 ingredients!!!!


WHY I LOVE THIS DIY


It gives a light, natural tint to eyebrow hairs thanks to cocoa and (for darker hair) activated charcoal.


It keeps eyebrow hairs in place all day.


It nourishes the hair follicles and promotes hair growth. Great for sparse brows! 


It’s suitable for all skin types. 


It’s a snap to whip together. 


It can be applied with a regular clean eyebrow or mascara brush

(called a spoolie). 


A little product goes a long way. 


It’s only 5 ingredients and it makes 1 small jar.


What you'll need:

1 tbsp Aloe Vera Gel 


1/4 tsp Raw Honey


1/4 tsp Rhassoul Red Clay 


1/4 tsp Jojoba oil


Optional: 3 drops RoseHip Seed Oil

(for extra eyebrow hair nourishment)


1 tsp finely sifted Cacao Powder

(for darker color, add more cocoa, 1/8 tsp sifted

beet powder or 1/8 tsp activated charcoal at

a time until you get the color you want)


Optional: 2-3 drops each lavender, rose

and rosemary essential oil


Create:

In a mixing bowl, combine the aloe vera gel, honey,

red clay, jojoba oil, (optional) rosehip seed oil, cacao powder

and (optional) essential oils. Stir together until smooth. 


Store in a dry small jar with a lid OR add to a clean,

dry previously used eyebrow gel applicator tube.

Store in the fridge between uses.

(It’s fine to leave it out overnight accidentally,

it just keeps longer in the fridge).


To apply, use a clean rounded eyebrow brush (spoolie)

and dip it lightly into the gel. Wipe away excess

product off of the spoolie before applying

— you only need a little bit at a time.

Lightly sweep the gel into your brows in

an upward motion. Apply more products as needed.

Wipe away excess product from around your eyebrow

using your fingernail or a clean cotton swab.

Let dry completely to set the product. Reapply as needed. 


Try to avoid scratching / rubbing your eyebrow

after applying. Reapply as needed with a

clean eyebrow brush. Personally I rarely need to

reapply this as it holds up all day! 


To remove, simply wet your eyebrows and rub

them with clean hands or a washcloth.

You’ve basically worn a nourishing hair mask all day

so no need to strip with alcohol or soapy cleansers.

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

  The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What  you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
