Strawberry teeth whiteners

Yep, you read that right – strawberries. Well, I’m not talking about those artificially flavored toothpastes available in kiddie packages at the supermarket nowadays. Besides tasting like cough syrup, they really don’t feel like they can actually clean your teeth. Catherine Zeta-Jones actually uses fresh strawberries to clean her teeth. She swears by the fruit’s whitening powers. So how to do it? Clean your teeth as usual. Floss and brush with your favorite toothpaste. Puree or mash 3-6 strawberries. Swab the berry mixture to your teeth with cotton. Leave for five to ten minutes. Finally, rinse it off with water.

Olive oil manicure

Who says olive oil’s best use is in the kitchen? Julia Roberts and other celebrities soak their hands in olive oil to keep the skin soft and the nails from going brittle. Just put a few drops of olive oil in a basin of warm water and soak your hands for at least ten minutes. Another way is to rub olive oil all over your hands and put on gloves to leave overnight. This can also be done with your feet. Just rub a few drops of oil on your feet and massage. Wear cotton socks overnight and you’ll have soft feet and shiny nails the next day.

Juicy Lips!

cinnamonThere is one very simple and cheap way to attain the looks of Angelina Jolie with her plump luscious lips that anyone(well as long as you’re not allergic to the stuff) would die for, cinnamon oil. The spice extract is quite strong and should be tested out before application for some people have reported allergic reactions. The stuff is available in some grocery stores or even cosmetics stores that sell all organic stuff. It’s cheap, temporary and doesn’t need a needle. Want it ready for the whole day, search your drawer for one of those liquid lip gloss that comes in a small glass bottle with a roller on it, fill er’ up and pop it into your purse. It makes your lips red and plump in no time, it also makes you a bit more spicy for your mate!
