Make Your Own Soothing Deep Tissue Lavender Massage Butter

As good at nourishing the skin as it is to facilitate a body-soothing massage, this coconut and macadamia oil based massage butter is easy to make and a delight to experience.

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup macadamia oil
  • 48 drops lavender essential oil

Directions:

  1. Measure coconut oil and macadamia oil into a saucepan or double boiler.
  2. Under low, gentle warming heat, melt the oils then remove from heat.
  3. Add lavender oil and pour into tin or jar with a tight fitting lid.
  4. Allow to cool until partially solidified ( I put mine in the fridge cause this is Texas....) 
  5. Scoop out small amounts and massage over body.

I used to purchase my essential oils at places like Whole Foods and would pay for a tiny bottle of Aura Cacia what you can get a huge 4 oz bottle for on Amazon - I made this using goPURE 100% natural Bulgarian essential lavender oil




Kelapo Extra Virgin Coconut Oil,, which also makes the most amazing grilled cheese sammiches ever, by the way.....  (normally I use fractionated coconut oil in stuff like this, but you want it to solidify into a butter and fractionated stays liquid.)


and this super cheap macadamia nut oil that is at least half to 2/3 less than most because it's not marketed in a fancy bottle bottle or with a fancy label.

Ayurveda Weight Loss

Caralluma Fimbriata - Pure, Natural Appetite Control- 1000 Mg Weight Loss Formula - Caralluma Cactus Extract - No Binders! No Fillers! - 100% Vegetarian Vegan- Non-Stimulant! Long a staple of Ayurveda medicine, this has been used for centuries for it's ability to block hunger. It doesn't work by making you feel full, you just don't feel the hunger itself. It takes about a month of regular use to start seeing weight loss, but if you use this in conjunction with upping your physical activity, you WILL see a difference.

If you look up the scientific research on it. you'll see pretty good results. One site for publishing scientific studies said "Caralluma Fimbriata is a certain species of the Caralluma genus that appears to have historical usage as a famine food, appetite suppressant, and thirst quencher when the vegetables are boiled and salted. Research is preliminary, but seems to validate these claims." I feel better knowing that there's real research backing up my supplements and not just speculative claims. Even Dr Oz did a segment on it!

More Argan Oil Love! RejuveNaturals

RejuveNaturals Virgin Moroccan Argan Oil - 100% Pure and Certified Organic (4 Fl. Oz.) for Face, Hair, Skin and Nails


I've been using argan oil for years, but I never thought about how it would be so awesome on beards! So I smacked some onto my hairy Sasquatch man...... his beard was itching and I had just gotten this sent to me to review and I had an AHA moment and told him to rub some into his beard. It soothed his skin, made him beard soft and shiny and made the skin feel moisturized, Now he would like to take it for over from me on a regular basis :-)

This is now a favorite shaving oil for us as well. He said that when he uses this he doesn't get ingrown hairs and I can attest to his face being smooth as a baby's butt. I use this when I shave my legs and I get such a smooth, close shave. it seems to take for longer as well, I guess because I'm getting such a close shave. I have never gotten a nick when using argan oil and it leaves my legs super silky.




About the Product


  • 100% PURE AND ORGANIC - Our Argan Oil Contains Only One Ingredient: 100% Pure Certified Organic Moroccan Argan Oil. Our Argan Oil is also Cold Pressed, Virgin, Paraben free, Fragrance free, Alcohol Free, With No Preservatives
  • HIGHEST QUALITY AVAILABLE, MADE IN USA - RejuveNaturals takes pride in providing consumers with the highest quality products available and that's why our product is also EcoCert certified organic, going above and beyond with the highest standards available.
  • MONEY BACK GUARANTEE: We take pride in producing the highest quality products available. If you are not satisfied with your RejuveNaturals purchase in any way you can return it for a replacement or full refund, no questions asked.
  • ANTI-AGING, HEALING, AND PROTECTING - It is a wonderful natural luxury alternative to other cosmetic products on the market. Argan oil can be used on the face and can help eliminate the onset of wrinkles and other signs of aging in the skin because it contains high amounts of vitamin E and antioxidants. The natural substances that occur in our pure Argan Oil called triterpenoids offer amazing skin healing benefits such as tissue healing (scars), and Anti-inflammatory (Acne). It also protects the inner and outer layers of your skin, hair and nails. Our customers love to use our argan oil for hair growth, as a skin moisturizer, hair conditioner, anti-aging benefits, dry skin conditions such as eczema, as well as acne, dry heels or even a lip moisturizer.
  • FRESH, LIGHTWEIGHT, NON-OILY AND EASILY ABSORBED - Our Argan oil absorbs quickly into the skin and does not leave an oily residue. It is amazingly fresh, and produced using a cold-press extraction method. It has a naturally light earthy smell. Often times a lower quality or older less fresh oil will have a stronger pungent smell. Many producers add chemicals to remove the unpleasant smell from their poor quality, older oil. This damages the oil and it is no longer 'pure' or 'organic'. Ours is filtered without chemicals without losing any of the Argan Oils natural properties. This in turn creates an oil that is remarkably lightweight and is much more easily absorbed.

Forskolin Is Fantastic For Regulating Blood Pressure - it really made a difference for me

I'm noticing forskolin supplements all over the place now as a weight loss aid, but in actuality, it's been used for centuries for a ton of different health care issues, including by the medical industry itself. I've been taking it to lower my blood pressure. I've had mounting medical issues simply burying me, and my blood pressure has been through the roof. I took this for 2 weeks before my last doctor's visit and the nurse who sees me regularly actually remarked surprise at how much lower my blood pressure was compared to the last 6 months of almost bi-weekly visits. With my current physical issues, exercising has been out of the question so I can't vouch for it's weight loss effects, but I can say that on that aspect, it hits the mark. i would recommend instead of focusing on weight loss, they promote the other health aspects as well, which I think outweigh pure weight loss.

I'm not pregnant or breastfeeding, but it's a well known fact that prenatal vitamins are the secret to the stars for glowing skin and glossy hair. I have numerous cosmetologist and hair stylist buddies who have been recommending these o their clients for years. Simply take them like any other multivitamin, sit back, and reap the rewards. By the time you finish your first bottle you'll see a difference. Your hair and nails will be stronger and your skin will be bright and clear. I find they also give me more energy than a normal multivitamin. As an anemic, these also give me an added iron boost but don't make me nauseous like my previous iron supplement. Of course they work for pregnant and breastfeeding women too, but why should they get to have all the fun? LOL
