Homemade Coconut and Olive Oil Moisturizer - Great for hair, face, and body

How to make homemade coconut and olive oil moisturizer 


Both coconut and olive oil have a ton of benefits. They are used in many beauty products but beauty products you buy from a store have questionable ingredients. Plus by making your own you save money because you no longer have to buy lotions, creams, hair conditioner, masks, etc.

Here is how to make your own coconut and olive oil moisturizer:
  • 3 tablespoons of unrefined coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
  • Smash together with a spoon until well blended
  • (Optional) Add a drop of essential oils for fragrance (lavender oil, etc)
You can use this on anything; face, hair, body.

No Bra is the Best Bra



As most women that grew up in the 80s; I thought that wearing a bra is a necessity. Training bras for starting out, then sports bras, everyday bras, sexy bras, bras to make your boobs looks bigger etc. Boy was I wrong.

When I was first looking into becoming healthier I found the article 6 Reasons I'll Never Wear A Bra Again. I figured what the heck bras have always caused me pains (breast and back pain), cost way too much ($50+ for a good bra that will last a year if I'm lucky), and are hell to wear. My favorite thing about wearing a bra was taking it off.

I have been bra-less for over a year now. I have noticed that I no longer have any bra related pains, my breasts seem happier, I save money because I don't need to buy new bras, and most people don't even notice that I'm not wearing a bra. Also it seems strange by my breasts seem to have gotten a little bigger.

There is no law saying that you have to wear a bra if they make you feel miserable. Do whatever feels best for you, and your breasts.

PS: For those inquiring minds my size used to be DD 38. I have no idea what it would be now.
