Fresh Milk & Strawberries Natural Manicure
Here are the tools you will need:
Nail clippers or scissors
Nail File
Nail Cuticle Stick
Nail Buffer
Here are the ingredients you will need:
Homemade Strawberry Scrub Recipe
3-4 ripe crushed Strawberries
2 tsp Honey
1 tbs Organic Sugar
1 tbs Oil-Evening Primrose, Almond, Olive, Avocado-either one will do or you may use what you have
Mix the above ingredients just before you begin your manicure. Depending on how ripe your strawberries are, you may like to adjust this recipe, the consistency should be on the thick side. If you have problems getting it thick enough, the easiest thing to do is to add some oatmeal.
1 cup Whole Milk
Warm the milk and pour it into a manicure bowl for your hand soak before you begin.
Begin the Manicure:
Carefully trim away any hangnails
File and shape your nails
Soak your hands in a dish of warm whole milk for about 5 minutes; this will help to soften the cuticles and your skin
Apply the Strawberry Scrub, massage into hands to exfoliate, nourish and polish away dry skin.
Rinse hands and pat dry
Gently push back cuticles
Buff your nails with a smooth soft buffer
Warm a bit of the same kind of oil you used in the Scrub recipe and massage into your hands, carefully around the nails and cuticles
Your nails are shined and polished-Naturally
Vegan treatment-substitute Soy or Rice Milk for the Whole Milk and Molasses for the Honey.
