Healing Beer Bath

Thursday, March 29, 2012

Beer is not just for drinking!  This tasty liquid is also great for your skin and hair.  The miracle ingredient in beer is hops.  Use this healing beer bath to draw out your impurities, clean out your pores, and help you relax.

Hops helps to exfoliate the skin by getting rid of the dead cells in the upper layer.   The yeast in the beer contains B vitamins which help purify and renew your skin while keeping moisture in.  Also, beer yeast helps aid in getting rid of acne causing bacteria while helping with the elasticity of your skin.  The warm water of this healing bath motivates your pores to open and stimulates your circulatory system.

Ingredients:

2 cups of beer (any kind will do)
1 warm bath

Directions:

Draw a warm bath and add the 2 cups of beer.  Relax in your bath. :)

Beer spas have become a trend in Europe.  Hopefully it catches on soon here in the US!

Enjoy!

Beer Hair Treatment

Saturday, March 17, 2012

What better way to celebrate your hair on this day than with beer?  Yes, I said beer!  Beer lovers rejoice!  Beer has many beneficial properties that make it popular as an ingredient in many homemade remedies

Beer is basically composed of sugar, hops and malt.  Hops and malt are proteins which help damaged hair: Hair damaged by chlorine, sun, chemical processing, etc.  The sugar in the beer helps close your hair's cuticle which in turn helps reflect more light and helps give your hair the sough-after appearance of "shiny" hair.
