Happy Friday fellow Pickleer’s! I am SO looking forward to a nice relaxing (warm weather!)
weekend. I think I shall begin my Friday night with a lovely Skinny Espresso Martini, and
then squeeze in a few quick beauty treatments before heading out for the night. Now, I’m
no beauty expert by any stretch but I do know one thing, if there’s a natural solution to
remedy a beauty conundrum, I’m going to opt for it before heading out to the drug store. In
the past, I’ve always found that natural home beauty remedies tend to be more effective
than their man made counterparts, plus I feel better about using them (and they cost way
less-bonus!) I’ve put together a quick reference guide of 12 of my favorite DIY Natural
Before and After

Ready, set, BEAUTIFY…

1: Cellulite Be Gone Solution: Home Remedy



Why it works? Coffee grounds and olive oil for cellulite removal works wonders because of
the stimulants in the caffeine. Caffeine dilates blood vessels and increases blood flow which
can lend the skin a more firm, toned appearance.

2: Reduce Fine Lines & Crows Feet (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? Grapes contain natural oils and fruit acids that can help to tighten the skin,
reducing the appearance of fine lines over time.

3: Reduce Puffy Eyes (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? Aside from the fact that egg whites are packed with protean and endless
health benefits, according to the Natural Eye Care Website, “egg white is an astringent that
acts to tighten pores and reduce puffiness under the eyes”. Egg white will help reduce
inflammation and increase circulation too!

4: The Wrinkle Remedy (Natural Solution)



Why it works? Almonds are packed with omega-3 and other natural oils which boosts the
amount of moisture your skin can hold which enables your skin to “plump out” wrinkles on
it’s own. Honey is rich with vitamins & amino acids which nourish the skin; it also contains
powerful antioxidants that fight free radicals and reverse aging.

5: Brighten Your Smile (Natural Solution)



Why it works? Baking soda is found in most toothpastes and whiteners, so its no surprise
that it acts as a powerful tooth whitener, but did you know strawberries will enhance the
whitening effect? Strawberries contain an enzyme called Malic acid. This organic acid acts
like an astringent by removing surface stain of the teeth.

6: Banish Dark Eye Circles (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? The flavonoids in mint produce antioxidants that help in reducing freeradical damage caused to the cells of the eyes, thereby treating dark circles. So simple and
amazing!

7: Heal Acne and Reduce Scars (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? Apple cider vinegar contains alpha-hydroxy acids that attack bacteria and
help dry out blemishes. White tea contains natural antioxidants which help get rid of free
radicals that build up in our skin.

8: Skin Clarifying Exfoliant (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? The coconut oil base in this natural exfoliant it one of natures best
moisturizers, while the granules in the sugar help sooth away dead skin and impurities. The
strawberries contain alpha hydroxy acid, salycilic acid, and tons of vitamin c which are
excellent for your skin. Salycilic acid and alpha hydroxy acid help banish dead skin cells and
make your pores smaller, while vitamin c slows the rate of free radical damage and
brightens skin!

9: Treat Dry Skin (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? Avocado is high-fat fruit which softens and moisturizes the skin. Avacoda
also contains vitamins A, D, and E, which hydrate and protect the skin. Honey is rich with
vitamins & amino acids which nourish the skin; it also contains powerful antioxidants that
fight free radicals and reverse aging.

10: Shrink Large Pores (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? The egg white contains astringent properties that act to pull out waste and
tighten pores as it dries. The corn starch works to softens the skin.

11: Reduce Age Spots (Natural Remedy)



Why it works? The acids onions contain have a fading effect similar to those in lemons.
These acids combined with the natural properties in apple cider vinegar help fade age spots.

12: Clarify Hair & Restore Shine (Natural Solution)



Why it works? Apple cider vinegar has natural properties that help to restore & balance
PH levels when applied to the scalp. The natural acids in the vinegar detoxify and strip away
built up residue on hair.

Merci pour tous vos bons conseils. Je suis
francophone et mon anglais n’est pas parfait, donc
je ne comprend pas toujours les explications que
vous donnez et la traduction, qui n’est pas faite par
vous, laisse à désirer, donc auriez-vous une autre
traduction à me suggérer. Je vous remercie,
j’adore votre site…

It would be wonderful to have these set up to print
as tiles that would form a large poster or could be
framed separately…. normal printing breaks them
up and does not do them justice… this is great info
and so beautiful, it should be art!

Was wondering on the healing acne and reducing
scars would green tea be okay to use instead of
white tea? And if used regularly would it prevent
acne? Just being curious.
