Most effective DIYs for great hair

Hi Blooming People Out There!!!

One thing we always neglect is how good home remedies can be. And how effective they really are. We can make easy DIYs at home using ingredients that are always available around us.
So in this blog I will be telling you guys about very easy hair packs/masks that I have personally used and have seen the results. These DIYs have also shown effect on many of my friends as well.
Lets get started with the great DIY hair packs/masks.

DIY Hair Pack for Instantly Smooth and Shiny hair:

Ingredients Required : Eggs, Honey, Preferably Olive Oil(if not coconut oil or any oil of your choice)

How to make it? :

• Take one egg if you have short to medium hair. Two eggs if you have long hair. Separate egg white from the whole egg and take it in a bowl.
• Take one teaspoon of honey and two tablespoon of hair oil of any choice. I prefer using olive oil because it suits my hair.
• Mix all the ingredients really very well.
• Apply thoroughly to your hair including scalp and tips of the hair.
• Leave it on for exactly 20  minutes.(Don't keep it on for long as it will make your hair dry).
• Wash it off with you favorite shampoo and conditioner.

And trust me guys, you will experience soft and silky hair in one go. This DIY is my holy grail hair pack. You can use it once a week. And the results will be amazing.

DIY Hair Pack for hair fall and hair regrowth:

Ingredients Required : Onion, Honey, Hair oil of your own choice(I prefer Olive Oil)

How to make it? :

• Take one onion and grate it completely. Then take a piece of cotton cloth, put the grated onion on it and squeeze out the onion juice. So basically we require onion juice for this DIY.
• Mix one tablespoon of honey and one tablespoon of hair oil in the extracted onion juice.
• Mix all the ingredients really very well. And apply it all over your hair including scalp and tips of the hair.
• Leave it on for good 30 - 45 minutes.
• Wash it off with your favorite shampoo and conditioner.

It can be used weekly once. I have seen great results of this DIY. Hair really grows long and it also tends to make hair black. One con of this DIY is, the smell of onion can stay for one day even after washing the hair with shampoo. So, if you don't want it to happen, just stand in sunlight for 10 minutes and the smell will be gone.

DIY Hair pack for deep conditioning of hair :

Ingredients Required : Indian Gooseberry also called Amla Powder.(Click here to buy), Curd

How to make it? :

• Take 2 tablespoon of Amla powder if you have short to medium hair length or 4 tablespoon if you have long hair length.
• Add curd to the powder in order to make a runny paste out of it.
• Apply this paste to the entire hair length including the scalp and the tips.
• Keep it on for good 30 - 45 minutes.
• Wash it off with your favorite shampoo and conditioner.

You can use this hair pack once a week. And after one use only you can feel your hair to be softer than before.

Disclaimer : Home remedies or DIYs do tend to take time to show results which may vary from one month to three months. You have to be consistent and use it religiously to see the difference in the hair texture. But they definitely work. I myself have personally tried all the above three hair packs and they work wonders for my hair. I have also tested these hair packs on many of my friends. And they have also seen great results out of it.

If you already use any of the above mentioned DIYs or you tried it after reading my blog, don't forget to share your comments below. It will mean a lot to me. :) 

Review on Good Vibes Brightening Face Mask

Hello blooming people out there!!!

Let me start with a riddle - 'I stay on your face for sometime and after I am gone, you end up looking fresh'.
Can you guess the product?
Yes!! You are right. Face Masks :)
Today I am going to review Good Vibes Brightening Face Mask.
Lets get started.

Price and Packaging :

Priced at INR 225 for 50gm (Maximum time it is available on offer. I got it for INR169)
It comes in a dark brown glass jar with a sturdy golden color cap. The jar feels quite heavy and it does look luxurious.

Claims by the Product :

• Removes impurities from skin
• Leaves skin bright and glowing
• Rejuvenated dull and tired skin

My experience with the product :

Let me start with the main ingredients of the product which includes Kaolin, Liquirice Extract and water melon extract. It is completely organic in nature. It is white in color which feels super smooth on skin.

I use it twice a week. I basically scrub my face with my favorite exfoliator i.e. Biotique Bio Papaya Tan removal scrub. After that I apply toner and then a thick layer of Good Vibes Brightening Face mask.

I keep it for 15 minutes and then wash it off with clean water and it comes off really easy.

Coming to the claims of the product, it does rejuvenate my skin and my skin looks super clean and fresh. But I didn't notice any bright and glowing effect as it claims.

Pros of Good Vibes Brightening Face Pack:

• Rejuvenates skin nicely
• Makes skin super clean
• Easy to apply and take off
• Completely organic and totally chemical free
• Affordable

Cons of Good Vibes Brightening Face Pack:

• Odour can irritate sensitive nose
• Does not brighten up the skin
• Availability can be an issue

Overall Rating : 4/5

DIY Body moisturizer

Hello Everyone,

Smooth, hydrated, moisturized skin is what each and everyone of us desire for. And many of us end up spending so much on body butters, body lotions, body moisturizer and many more things. But I have found a substitute or DIY( Do It Yourself) for it.
Before we get started with the DIY, let me tell you guys about my skin type. I have very dry skin. It tends to get patchy in winter.

Ingredients:

• Glycerin
• Rose water(Gulab jal)
• Lemon Juice
• Aloe vera gel
• Essential Oil(Optional)

You can easily find the above mentioned ingredients in the general store or medical store near you. But, I will also put the online links to buy all these ingredients at the end of the blog. 

How to make it?

• Take equal amount of glycerin and rose water in a container.
• Add two-three drops of lemon juice.
• Add one tablespoon of Aloe vera gel.
• Add two-three drops of your favorite essential oil( My favorite is Lavender essential oil). This step is completely optional.
• Shake the container well and your DIY body moisturizer is ready.

You can store this moisturizer in the plastic container for good 3-4 months.

Disclaimer:

• Please do a patch test before using this moisturizer.
• It might feel a little sticky on the skin, but once you get used to it you will not feel the stickiness at all.

How to use it?

• After taking shower, take the moisturizer in your palm and apply thoroughly to your entire body.
• You can also apply this on your lips if you have really dry and patchy lips.
• Even before going to the bed at night, you can apply this moisturizer.

Benefits of using this DIY Body Moisturizer:

• Glycerin helps in completely moisturizing and hydrating the skin.
• Rose water also known as Gulab jal is useful in making skin look fresh and glowing.
• Lemon juice helps in brightening of the skin.
• Aloe vera gel as we all know is so great for our skin. It moisturizes, hydrates, make skin glow and what not.

My take on this DIY Body Moisturizer :

Honestly, I have been using this moisturizer since 15 years now. Yes. You read it right. 15 years. This was introduced to me by my Mom. Ever since I have started using this, I never went back to any other body lotions. It instantly makes my skin moisturized and hydrated. Additionally, you don't have to reapply this again.

Also, my feet tends to get really dry and patchy in winter and summer season. What I like to do is, I apply this moisturizer and wear socks for two-three hours. Voila!! My feet instantly feels so hydrated. Of course the cracks don't disappear instantly. But with regular usage you will see the effect in 3-4 days.

I recommend this DIY Body Moisturizer to each and everyone who suffer from dry skin problems. Use it daily religiously and trust me you will never regret.
One more benefit which I have noticed is that it does make the skin a little even toned and also has helped in brightening up my skin. Obviously, it takes time to get the results.

• Essential Oil : Purplle  Nykaa
