I adore coconut oil for my diet, it has helped with health concerns and generally my body loves it. I was sure that I would have similar luck with using this for beauty, but unfortunately, not. Most recently I tried it as a lip balm, and it didn't stay on for long, and once it came off my lips were drier after than before!

I first started takin Biotin in one of those 'Hair & Nail' formulas which combine several beneficial ingredients for improving hair loss/ condition and nails. After 2 months and not seeing much difference I purchased Biotin on its own in 5000 mcg, taking one capsule daily. Almost 3 months on that and my nails were definitely stronger and in better condition than I've ever seen …Read more

This is an excellent moisturizing oil for my dry, sensitive and/or inflamed skin. Yes, it is orange in color and be advised will show up on fair skin until absorbed. It has a vaguely nutty, natural scent that dissipates. I use Life Flo Cold Pressed Organic Pure Sea Buckthorn Oil from Vitacost or Amazon, priced at about $14.00 for a 1fl oz. brown glass bottle with an eyedropper cap dispenser. 1-3 …Read more

One egg, two tbs curd, two ts honey and a bit of olive oil,
This gives me beautiful curls, and good volume. Overall, suits my hair a lot. Love it

Everyone should have one of these and apparently won't need a second one ever - I have mine for about four years now and it's still excellent!

Very effective, gentle on the nails and easy to clean. I recently bought one for my mother and she's thrilled too :)

I see real results with my home made vitamin c serum, I mix L ascorbic acid + purified water, using a cotton round I wipe my face and neck, my face is glowing in the morning, best treatment for large pores, skin discolouration, and age spots, this is a stable for me.

You best believe this stuff works for growing out lashes and brows. I had a bottle of this laying around since I use it for making DIY lip balms. After having read reviews here on MUA about how it helps with lash and brow growth, I decided to try it for myself. I'll admit, I was very skeptical of the claims I read but since the bottle only cost me $2.50, I had nothing to lose. Well …Read more

I had bleached white ashy hair (looked ok w my pale cooler skin if not slightly aging as it was easy to over tone to grey), and started self tanning to a warm nc42 and I wanted a more golden tone. I tried natural instinct amber shimmer but it came out quick. Of course I could use another dye, or toner, but I had this sitting around and it is so good for bleached hair, instead of more damage. I …Read more

Ahh, my favorite winter eyelash and eyebrow treatment, and also when I've worn a ton of heavy duty mascara.

Yes, it's very thick and yes, it will give you blurry eyes if you put too much on your lashes or put along your lash line. I've made that mistake and ugh, it's a pain in the butt the next morning to get out of your lashes. I apply the oil with a spoolie brush …Read more

Glycerin clogs my pores horribly. I can’t use cleansers on face that contain it, can’t use with water- horrible reaction w clogged pores!!
I tried using in my coconut oil (about 1 part glycerin, 5 parts oil) on my legs as a moisturizer. My legs got some bumps. This rarely happens bc my skin is so dry naturally.
Luckily I found the vanicream bar to use as a facial cleanser & cerave …Read more
