breakouts. If your skin tends to be very dry, you may wish to spray on a
little bit of rosewater after applying a generous layer of aloe gel to your
skin. You can also blend a small amount of aloe vera gel with rosewater and
the contents of one vitamin E capsule in a small, clean cosmetics jar for a
great dry skin moisturizer!

won't damage your hair with harsh chemicals. This works especially well on
curly hair that needs a bit of smoothing and taming.

ounces of the gel into a clean cosmetics jar, and mix in ultra fine cosmetic
glitter until you get the desired consistency and sparkle! Some recipes
