I love using natural ingredients on my hair, skin, and body.
They are easy to use and easy to find, plus I never
breakout or harm my skin and hair when I use them. Here are some of my most favorite
and inexpensive ways to use what the planet has provided for us:
1. Exfoliation is so important for healthy, glowing skin! Mix some organic raw sugar and a few drops of extra virgin olive oil together and use it to exfoliate your face and neck. It will moisturize your skin at the same time!

2. Tomatoes are a natural acid and you can add them to your cleansing routine once in a while. Just mash up a ripe tomato and leave it on for about 15 minutes and then rinse off. This is good for oily skin.
3. Oatmeal and sweet almond oil are great for sensitive skin and are both natural cleansers. Oatmeal is also anti-inflammatory and sweet almond oil is a fantastic moisturizer. Blend oatmeal in a blender or food processor until it becomes a powder and then mix in some sweet almond oil. Smooth it all over your face, neck and chest and rinse it off after about 20 minutes.
4. Unfiltered apple cider vinegar is one of my favorite items for tonics, astringents, antiseptics, cooking, salad dressings, and remedies. I literally use it everyday. Some people call it a ‘magic elixir’ or ‘the fountain or youth’ I don’t know about that-but it has hundreds of uses and has been used for centuries. I could write a whole book about how to use this amazing fluid. It naturally restores the pH balance of our skin and body and has been reported to improve blood circulation and help to burn fat rather than store it. It also has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial, and antibiotic properties while being highly restorative for our bodies and skin. (fights off fatigue!)
Here is the recipe for my favorite
apple cider tonic. My family and I have been drinking it for years and my mom
and dad were both drinking it before I was born!

| Bragg Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar and Organic Honey |
Rae’s Apple Cider Vinegar and Honey Tonic:
32 oz. of cold purified water
½ c. of Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar-
I love Bragg. You can get it here: Bragg Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar
½ c. of organic honey
Stir briskly together and leave it
your fridge so that you can drink it before meals. You can play around with the
amounts of honey and vinegar to taste. If you don’t like it, you won’t drink
it-so make sure it tastes good to YOU. Once in awhile, I will add a squeeze of
lemon for even more alkalinity.
You may find that you are not as
hungry and start eating less. Some people have discovered that it calms down
‘an over-robust appetite’. It is also full of antioxidants, trace minerals and
elements, vitamins, amino acids and has soluble fiber from the natural pectin
in it!
I hope you enjoy growing young and getting Purifoid as I have!
Love,
Rae
