Avocado SpaGot a ripe avocado? You need 2 for this one. Avocados are rich in vitamins A, B, D and E, lecithin and other nutrients. There is speculation amongst researchers that avocado oil may mobilize and increase the collagen of connective tissue. It is anti-aging. Whether that is true, it is fun using avocado in home made beauty treatments. PreparationsFirst take both avocados, peel them. Keep the pits in a bowl and the peel in another bowl. Mash half of the first avocado with a teapoon of Honey for a face mask. Add 1 to 4 tablespoonfuls of heavy cream if you have dry skin. The drier your skin, the more cream you might want to add. Mash the other half of the avocado for a hair mask. Keep the second avocado to eat whichever way you like it. (To get the nutrients into your body, eat the fruit.) AmbienceFor a full spa ambience,
The SpaFor normal or oily skin, wash your face, neck and shoulders with a mild soap and water. For dry skin, cleanse your face,neck and shoulders with your regular cleanser. Apply the honey and avocado mask over your face, neck and shoulders. Apply the mashed avocado into your hair as a hair mask. Relax for 30 minutes. Take a shower. Shampoo and rinse your hair as usual. Soap and rinse yourself. Then, rub the insides of the avocado peel all over your body as a gentle, moisturising body scrub. Towel dry yourself and wear comfortable clothes. Sit down. Take 1 avocado pit and massage the sole of your right foot. Stroke from toes to heel over and over again for as long as you can. Then take the 2nd avocado pit and do the same for your left foot. Eat the other avocado whichever way you like. Enjoy! Anti aging treats
