Coconut Oil:

It is proven that virgin coconut oil hydrates the skin and lock the moisture in. Coconut oil is proven to be the blessing for excessively dry skin. When applied topically it goes under the skin and also make maintain the water in the body due to water loss. It is preferable to apply oil right after having the bath.

Shea Butter:

Shea butter is an excellent product for skin and it is non-comedogenic, which means that it won’t clog your pores. Here are some of the amazing ways that shea butter can benefit your skin:

1. Eczema

Eczema is a skin condition where the skin becomes irritated or inflamed. The healing and moisturizing properties of shea butter make an excellent topical treatment for eczema. It can be applied liberally to the affected area daily. The anti-inflammatory properties provide needed relief and the nutrients in shea butter help promote healthy skin cell re-growth.
You can also use a combination of shea butter and essential oils for eczema: Add 10-12 drops of your favorite eczema essential oils such as lavender or frankincense to every 1 ounce (30 ml) of raw, unrefined shea butter.

2. Stretch marks

Stretch marks often occur during pregnancy but can occur after rapid weight gain. Shea butter helps to smooth the skin and keep it hydrated naturally. Research into shea butter has shown that it can help boost collagen production, thus reducing the appearance of stretch marks.5
For more useful information, read my article about the best natural ways to improve stretch marks.

3. Reduce appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

The collagen boosting properties of shea butter also make it an excellent product to help reduce the appearance of aging. As we age, our bodies produce less collagen and the skin loses some of its elasticity resulting in crepey wrinkly skin. Environmental factors like pollution, sun damage, and extreme temperatures can also affect the appearance of aging in the skin.

Shea butter also provides essential moisturizing for the skin which helps the skin to look smoother and healthier. One study showed that shea butter visibly reduced the signs of aging in the participants.5


4. Dry Skin

The moisturizing effects of shea butter make it the perfect moisturizer, especially if you need deep moisturizing. You can rub some shea butter onto dry and cracked heels and hands. This also provides a protective layer to the skin and prevents the affected areas from becoming inflamed.

5. Chapped lips

Dry or chapped lips can be painful and unattractive. If you suffer from chapped lips during cold weather, then you’ll be glad to know that shea butter is one of the best natural remedies for chapped lips.
Shea butter is emollient, which means it can soften or soothe the skin, and can be used to heal chapped lips. The emollient properties of shea butter act as a protective barrier by supplying and retaining moisture in the lips and skin.
You can easily make a lip balm from shea butter: melt 2 tablespoons each of shea butter and coconut oil and 1 tablespoon of beeswax over a double boiler on low heat and mix well. Pour the mixture into a small glass container and let it cool. The consistency will be medium firm. If you prefer a firmer consistency, you can add more beeswax, and vice versa.

6. Scars

Vitamins A and E and the collagen boosting properties of shea butter make it an excellent natural product to help wound heal and reduce the appearance of scars. The journal Wounds published a study on how the properties of shea butter can help to reduce the formation of scar tissue.6

In order to get the benefits of shea butter in treating scars, you should regularly massage it into the affected area. You can also mix shea butter with essential oils that can reduce scars or you can use other natural ways to heal scars. If you suffer from acne scars, read my other article on how to get rid of acne scars naturally.

7. UV Protection

Studies have also shown that shea butter also protects against UV radiation. UV radiation causes the skin to age quicker and is also one of the main causes of skin cancer.
Research published in the American Journal of Life Sciences reported on clinical studies which showed that shea butter can protect against the harmful effects UV radiation.5
Because shea butter is also anti-inflammatory, therefore, it can be used as an after-sun treatment to provide needed relief. (https://www.healthyandnaturalworld.com/shea-butter-benefits-hair-skin-health/)

Cocoa Butter:

1. Nourishes and Hydrates
Cocoa butter is highly absorbable and perfect for all skin types, which makes it the perfect source of hydration for dull, dry, and tired looking skin. It’s rich and silky texture and light luxurious fragrance makes skin feel nourished and moisturized, feeding skin tissue with healthy fats and plenty of powerful antioxidants.
It can also be melted down and mixed with essential oils to make a powerful and fragrant source of skin nutrition that can be applied all over the body.
2. Decreases Visible Signs of Aging
Some studies have found that the polyphenols, which are powerful antioxidants that are found in cocoa butter, help to prevent skin degeneration, wrinkles, fine lines, pigmentation, and sagging.
Environmental pollution, the sun’s UV rays, and daily exposure to chemicals cause oxidative stress on a cellular level, which these powerful antioxidants help to prevent. Polyphenols have also been shown to promote collagen production, which is the main structural protein found in the skin that maintains elasticity and youthful looking skin.
3. Prevents Chapped Lips
Cocoa butter is an emollient, which means that it helps to soothe, soften and protect delicate skin tissue. This makes it the perfect product to use as a natural lip balm and can be combined with other fragrances and essential oils to make a rich combination for keeping lips smooth and protected, even in extreme temperatures. (https://www.healthyhubb.com/cocoa-butter-health-benefits/)

Mango Butter:

Like cocoa butter or shea butter, mango butter is a common product for the skin. It’s easy to see why, as each of these is smooth and creamy, often helping to cool down and moisturize the skin.
But, each type also has a unique chemical composition, resulting in different properties. For example, shea butter is rich in vitamin A, while cocoa butter has large quantities of fat (3).
Mango butter has also been promoted as a good alternative to cocoa butter, with research suggesting that it may offer some advantages (4). Some specific benefits of mango butter include the following:


  • Soothing. Mango butter is good for soothing the skin and can help to calm down the stinging and itching of bites and rashes as well.
  • Decreases dryness. Mango butter is naturally moisturizing, making it perfect for dry skin. Some recipes even use this advantage to help with dry lips.
  • Promotes youthful appearance. The vitamin A in mango butter can make the skin seem more youthful, potentially reducing the appearance of wrinkles as well.
  • Firms the skin. The vitamin C present can help to plump up the skin somewhat, also making it appear firmer.
  • Environmental protection. Mango butter may play a role in sun protection. The impact is relatively minor, so you can’t entirely rely on it. Still, it is a useful benefit.
  • Anti-aging. The antioxidants in mango butter may help to fight aging and some of the associated symptoms
  • Skin repair. Some research suggests that mango butter may help with skin repair, particularly the cracked and worn skin that is commonly seen on feet (5).
  • In most cases, you would use mango butter as part of a recipe, as this is more practical. However, the butter can also be used on its own if that is your preference. (https://nutritionyoucanuse.com/mango-butter-skin-benefits)
    Irish Moss:

               Irish moss is also known as a skin softener and protector, which works by keeping the skin nourished by maintaining its natural hydration level. Irish moss also helps the skin to heal faster from various issues like psoriasis, rashes, sunburns, and eczema.
    • Skin Health: Irish moss is most often found in skin creams and cleansers. The many essential vitamins obtained from Irish moss, especially vitamin A, vitamin E and vitamin K, have superb effects on the skin. Irish moss products can help to soften the skin, reduce wrinkles and treat skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
    •  
    • Anti-Viral: Irish moss is believed by many to be an effective anti-viral. It has been used to treat many symptoms of the common cold, influenza, and the mumps virus.
    •  
    •  Antioxidants: Irish moss contains several antioxidants that may be helpful in preventing free radical damage in the body and lessening the risk of many types of cancer and disease. These antioxidants include the powerful vitamins A, E and K.


    Beeswax:

              Protectant

    Acting as a surfactant, beeswax, when blended into cold creams and other skin lotions, forms a protective barrier on the surface of the skin. This barrier, according to Koster Keunan, a global organic wax supplier, provides a film of protection against irritants while still allowing the skin to breathe.
    This barrier may also aid in protecting the tender skin on your lips. The Mayo Clinic recommends using a lip balm that contains beeswax during cold weather to reduce your chances of developing chapped lips.

    Skin Healer

    In its natural state, beeswax is firm but pliable. Melted and combined with other ingredients, beeswax adds body to skin care products, making creams thicker. Like other beehive products, including honey and royal jelly, beeswax offers anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral benefits, according to the magazine, Delicious Living, making it potentially beneficial for treating minor skin irritations.

    Skin Softener

    Dry, rough skin may benefit from creams, lotions or soaps that contain beeswax. When added to skin care products, beeswax acts as an emollient and a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin and sealing it in, reports Botanical.com. Beeswax also contains vitamin A, which may be beneficial in softening and rehydrating dry skin and in cell reconstruction.

    Antibacterial

    Beeswax may have mild antibacterial properties, according to a 2005 study conducted at Dubai Specialized Medical Center in the United Arab Emirates. Researchers combined honey, olive oil and beeswax, then applied the mixture to laboratory plates on which the bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, and the fungus, Candida albicans were growing. The honey/beeswax mixture inhibited the growth of the bacteria and fungus, making beeswax, along with honey, potentially beneficial in the treatment of diaper rash and other bacterial skin conditions.   (https://www.livestrong.com/article/192009-skin-benefits-of-beeswax/)

    Mac's 100% Natural Baby Butt Balm for diaper rash, Petroleum Free and Zinc Oxide and Alcohol Free



    We created this about a year ago for my daughter who has two little girls. At the time both in diapers.
    She has used it a number of times when the girls had a rash and has told me that the rash cleared up in a day, no problem. She loves it.
    We have infused the Coconut oil and Shea with a number of herbs that great for fighting diaper rash, and that will help.
    This convenient 2 oz diaper-bag tin will last easily 6 months or probably longer is used as we recommend. Please understand that this salve is to be used as diaper rash appears not after each diapering.
    All you have to do use it is to rub two or three fingers lightly over the surface until it starts to melt, and then apply as needed. Use after each diapering until rash is gone.
    This is a completely all natural balm. The are no chemicals in it as many of the commercial products have.
    The light green color is due to the natural ingredients, and the fragrance is also due to natural ingredients.
    It is also zinc oxide free and petroleum free.
    Commercial products use petroleum and zinc oxide. All they do is to trap moisture in and then use the zinc oxide to kill any bacteria.
    Coconut oil has anti bacterial properties in it naturally. Then we infuse it with thyme, rosemary, and oregano, lavender, chickweed, and plantain, and it is very strong in the anti bacterial dept.
    Petroleum based products lay on the surface so all they can do is trap existing moisture in. This also blocks the ability of the shin to release moisture or to breathe naturally. Petroleum has also been shown in some studies to leach out vitamin K.
    We use coconut and shea because the are all natural and they are solid at room temperature. As you reach body temperature they become liquid. This mean that very little will be needed. The benefit is that the infused oil works by soaking into the skin and not laying on the surface.
    Comfrey, Plantain, Chamomile, Calendula, and Lemon Balm and very soothing to irratated skin, so they work great on baby's bottom.
    This is a superior product and we believe to be the best out there, butt :) best of all it is all natural.
    We use only top quality ingredients to give your baby the best.
    Ingredients:

    Coconut Oil, Shea, Thyme, Rosemary, Oregano, Lemon Balm, Beeswax, Calendula, Lavender, Tea Tree, Chamomile, Chickweed, Plantain, Comfrey

    Lady Pamela's Natural Deep Hair Conditoner, Hot Oil Treatment, Oil Rinse, Argan Oil, Natural & Color Treated Hair, Chemical Free, No Fillers


    About hair.

    All hair is porous and is not living tissue. The hair follicle that grows the hair is living. Hair is a waste product of the follicle, similar to fingernails and the cuticle. So the hairs itself acts a bit like a sponge.

    Most conditioners, they contain parabens (wax) and sometimes oils. They do this because by using their shampoo you have chemically stripped your hair, and in the process made it dry and brittle, which causes hair to break off or split ends. The wax coats the hair and gives it shine and keeps it more manageable. Both conditions have been created by the shampoo itself. The parabens also plug up the follicle with wax and thus create dandruff and an itchy scalp.

     Pam used hair color about every six weeks or so and had after years of doing this has hair that is dry and brittle. So I started doing research, and this is what I came up with: Lady Pamela's Natural Deep Conditioner. She loves it.

    Since the creation of this Deep Conditioner Pam has grown out her colored hair and has beautiful silver locks. Her natural hair is somewhat oily now; she is still using the Deep Conditioner because it strengthens the hair, adds volume naturally, and gives it a wonderful shine!

    So how does our Natural Deep Conditioner work?

    We use only completely natural ingredients: Fractionated Coconut Oil, Shea Olien, Hemp Seed Oil, Moroccan Argan Oil, and Peppermint Oil to make it more refreshing.

    The coconut oil is 50% lauric acid which means that it is an excellent natural conditioner and has antimicrobial effects that keep hair strong, nourished, and protected. It is natural so it does not strip the hair or plug the follicles, but conditions the hair and the scalp. Also because we use fractionated coconut oil it will soak in and fill the porous hair, thus giving it body and helps to prevent breakage!
    Fractionated coconut oil stays in a liquid form and does not clog hair follicles & is very light.
    The Shea Olien also moisturizes the hair and helps give it a healthy shine without the waxes and parabens. Shea Olien penetrates the hair shaft and also protects it from damage caused by chemical hair treatments, blow dryers, straighteners, and other hair tools. Shea Olien is also fractionated to stay in a liquid form, is very light, and will not clog hair follicles.

    Hemp seed oil is easily absorbed by the scalp and hair. The oil also improves blood circulation on the scalp, which ensures that the hair follicles are nourished enough to support hair growth. The Hemp Seed oil give will give your hair added shine and softness.

    Moroccan Argan oil is a fantastic moisturizer that helps to eliminate dandruff and dry scalps. It also tames frizziness, flyaways and repairs split ends. It also gives hair a noticeable shine!

    Peppermint oil when applied to the scalp, is very useful in rejuvenating hair follicles and promoting healthy hair growth. Peppermints cleansing agents help to open up clogged hair follicles and encourage the flow of skin oils, making it ideal for people who suffer from dry scalps.

    Combined these ingredients give you a superior product which is completely natural, that helps restore your hair, follicles, and scalp to its natural balance. We believe it is the best out there.

    What Does a Hot Oil Treatment Do??

    -Prevents split ends (helps to go longer in between trimming appointments).
    -Moisturizers your locks from scalp to ends (perfect for extremely brittle and dry curly hair).
    -Adds shine (because healthy hair can’t look dull).
    -Stimulates blood circulation to the scalp (which is great for hair growth).
    -Helps to get rid of dandruff (and solve various dry scalp problems).

    How to use:

    1. First, wash your hair. Hot oil tends to work best on clean hair. This allows the oil to deeply penetrate the hair cuticle. 

    2. Once you’ve washed your hair, microwave the amount of the oil needed in a microwave-safe bowl for 10 seconds. Or heat 1 cup water in a saucepan, put the oil needed in a glass jar or custard cup, put the glass jar in the water to heat. Be careful when removing the jar it will be hot!

    3. Before applying the oil to your damp hair and scalp, test a small amount of the oil on your wrist to make sure it’s not too hot. 

    4. To protect your clothing, place a towel over your shoulders. If you prefer, you can apply the oil in the shower. 

    5. Run a brush through your hair to get rid of any knots. 

    6. Apply the oil evenly throughout your hair and massage it into your scalp. 

    7. Cover your head with a shower cap, or a plastic bag and wait up to 20 minutes. 

    8. After 20 minutes, completely rinse out the oil from your hair, and follow up with your normal shampoo.

    The amount of oil to use depends on the length and thickness of your hair. It is recommended: 1/2-1 teaspoon for short hair, 2 teaspoons for medium length hair, and 1 tablespoon for long hair.

    Pam could feel the peppermint working right away, my scalp tingled (good feeling). Pam's hair has become so much stronger & shiny! This is great also for the ends of my hair, no split ends!

     Pam uses a natural shampoo bar which is very gentle on her hair. She rinsed her hair with diluted vinegar, (diluted lemon juice works just as well) to close the hair shaft. Her hair is natural and somewhat oily so she prefers the vinegar or lemon juice rinse.

    Once a week is recommended for hot oil treatment, especially if you have damaged hair. She uses hot oil treatment once a month because she uses this same oil as a rinse on the ends of my hair after each shampoo. This helps to maintain the strength of her hair with no frizz!

    Pam has noticed that her hair is fuller, hydrated, shiny, and soft.

     Benefits of Oil Rinse:

    -moisture retention
    -easier detangling
    -less single strand knots
    -eliminates frizz
    -leaves hair smoother & softer
    -natural shine

    After shampooing your hair:

    You will only use a pea, dime, or nickel size portion. When applying start at the hair ends then work your way to your scalp, adding water when necessary for spreading. Leave on hair for 3 minutes, then rinse. No need for a conditioner because the oil is the conditioner. Optional to follow with a vinegar or lemon juice rinse to close the hair shaft.

    When using on color treating hair:
    I used a low priced hair dye and the color has lasted longer since I started to use Lady Pamela's Deep Conditioner ( I had been dying it every 10-12 weeks). I also used Lady Pamela's Deep Conditioner instead of the conditioner provided in the box of hair dye.

    After coloring and rinsing the dye out: I used a nickel size on the ends and work my way up to the scalp and then I use another dime size on my scalp and work to the middle of my hair. I leave on for 3-5 minutes and then rinse. Then I blow-dry and style. My hair felt so soft and silky! And no hair-dye smell.

    Vinegar Rinse recipe:
    1/2 cup vinegar
    1 cup distilled or filtered water.

    Put in a bottle and shake it before using it. I use about 2 tablespoons to a 1/4 cup. I pour it on my scalp and work it through my hair to the ends. Then I rinse my hair with tepid to warm water.

    You can use apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, or lemon juice. For blonde or silver-gray hair the white vinegar or lemon juice is recommended. Apple cider vinegar can give red hues to your hair.

    Detailed directions on the ease of using the oil treatment are sent with each purchase.

     4-ounce bottle of Lady Pamela's Deep Conditioner is 24 teaspoons or 8 tablespoons which comes out to 24 treatments for short hair, 12 treatments for medium length hair, or 8 treatments for long hair.

    You are getting 100% luxurious organic oils without fillers or chemicals.

    Ingredients: Fractionated Coconut Oil, Shea Olein (fractionated), Hemp Seed Oil, Argan Oil, & Peppermint Oil.
