Mashed up moosh

Even thought this week has been dedicated to hands, feet and teeth - I still can't ignore the areas I have spent time on before. So I've still been paying attention to my face, my hair and (sort of) my body.

Last night I noticed two things about my egg white face mask -
One: the egg smell can be a bit off putting and
Two: it has started to sting.

Now, I do not know why it has just started to sting just this last week however I do know that that is not a good sign and that I need to wash it off as soon as possible. It could have been just the one egg - one rotten egg...or that time of month or whatever. It just meant I had to find another face mask alternative and it had to be good for my skin (hey, it is getting used to being pampered now!) and it had to be cheap. Real cheap...in fact it had to be practically free.

I remembered a face mask Kim K had used in one of the TV series episodes. It was avocado around the face and grated potato around the eyes. Please let me tell you, I will continue to use the egg white face mask for tightening - but for moisturising and relaxing, the avo mask is the go. It felt so luxurious and at less than $1 a treatment - I was sold. These homemade treatments were turning out okay - so I decided to use some for this weeks focus - hands, feet and teeth.

My hands and feet have been severely overworked and negleted over the last few years. I wash my hands a lot and am always using a anti- bacterial gel, so my hands are very dry and crinkly. My feet are rough and dry - I think the dry skin on the balls of my feet are all that cushion my feet when I walk. My feet are always covered in bites and blisters - especially in Summer, that I don't even look at them. So it was time for some intensive treatment.

Oil.
Oil was the answer. I heated some Olive Oil with some a few drops of Vitamin E oil and soaked my crusty old cuticles in them. Agter 10 minutes, my hands looked and felt like a babies bottom. This stuff was good and free ( had it in my cupboard all along). With the left over oil, I did a Khloe K trick and smothered my feet in it and put on a pair of (old) warm socks. The heat does the trick and helps it to soak in good. I know it will take a lot longer to repair my crusty ole feet than one treatment but it is very relaxing.
And free.
Did I mention it was free?
