The first thing to go is Self care- It's remembering little things, like... your pretty face needs some lovin' too.
I mean, you GOTTA take time to love yourself.
This is "My Holy Grails and step by step of washing my face". As you can tell, I love my make up.
..Especially my Waterproof Mascara
First things first: you have to clean out the inside before you can clean up the outside.
My first holy grail is: Charco Caps from Wal-Mart
They are pink capsules filled with Activated Charcoal granulated and used for multiple things: like teeth whitener.
Mix the contents with water to make a paste. The amount of liquid will determine the consistency.
I use this technique about once a week.
Brushing with Activated Charcoal alone is not enough to freshen your breath too, so I follow that up with my regular toothpaste and then a splash of Peroxide.
I quit smoking cigarettes (and vaping) 8 weeks ago. I need all the whitening help I can get and these seem to be working. ;)
Once my teeth are sparkling I scrub scrub scrape my tongue. That's where all the bad breath bacteria is hanging out.
Now it's time for ma pretty face.
Coconut Oil.
Holiest of Grails. I put that * on era'thang.
A pea sized dollap whiped clean with a moist cotton swab...
softer than a baby's biscuit.
One of my favorite cleaning tools is the facial brush-
It doesn't matter the cost or the brand, I have a $50 one from Mary Kay and I have a $20 one from CVS-
the cost does not make a difference. Either way, I highly recommend investing in one.
Just lightly on the surface, as you can see, a gentle lather and light scrubby.
I follow that up with the equally as awesome and beneficial Holiest of Grails: Apple Cider Vinegar.
Oh my lanta the uses.
This is my astringent.
yep.... it burns.
It's also good for something just as important as your face.
Miss Kitty.
Just a dab on the outside, not on the inside.
It's NOT the best of smells, so-
After the freshness dries- Be sure to follow up with a good soul cleansing shower.
After you've towel dried- treat your clean self by hydrating with your favorite moisturizer.
I hope you enjoyed this video!
I'm goaling to do a new one every week*
