FREE Sugar Scrub!
Just finished up a batch of my amazing homemade sugar scrub! This stuff makes my skin so soft I don't even need lotion! (Which is saying a lot since I naturally have dry skin AND live in Utah). Anyone who orders GREENS off my website can send the tub to me when it's empty and I will fill it up with my scrub for FREE!

Oh. My. Biggest. Heck.
I heard about these wraps on facebook, and I was intrigued. I've had two babies, and while I've been able to lose the baby weight and get back in shape, my middle has never been the same. So I thought, "What the poo, I might as well give it a try!" I've tried a lot of other products with minimal results. After my first wrap I couldn't believe it, seriously. I kept going up to my husband and pointing at my stomach saying,"Look! Oh my gosh! Seriously...LOOK!"
This pretty much sums up how I felt when I looked in the mirror:
I have done 3 wraps but unfortunately my 1st wrap results got deleted off my phone, but here are my results from my 2nd and 3rd:

My abs I have been working so hard on but haven't been able to see yet are finally starting to show!
When I fall in love with a product I fall hard. I tell everyone, because I want everyone to benefit from it too. After my 2nd wrap I became a distributor. I have been looking for something like this for so long!
Take a look at my website: http://ohsnap.myitworks.com.
You can use these anywhere on your body, not just your midsection. They are truly amazing!

The best homemade skin products EVER.
Lately my skin has been a mess. Blotchy, dry in some places, oily in others, a zit here and there. So I did some research and based on what I found, made up a recipe for face-wash, body/face scrub, and body/face lotion. Within three days my skin looked totally different. At one point I just kept staring in the mirror because I couldn't believe how good it looked. Glowing, soft, even skin tone. I stopped wearing concealer, foundation, and powder all together.
Next post: Going RAW
Wish I had a before shot, but this about a week after using these recipes. No foundation/concealer/powder. Blush? Yes. It's a must.
And that is me drinking deliciousness from my juicer. Next post, I promise.
Face Wash
-Olive Oil
-Lavender essential oil
-Frankincense essential oil
At first I thought washing my face with olive oil would make it greasy and breakout, but it doesn't. It helps your natural oils replenish.
Place in a bottle and shake well before use. I didn't use measurements, just kind of threw it together. Depending on how strong your essential oils are, you may want to add more or less. I used DoTerra, which are very pure oils, so I used about 5 drops each and that was enough for my small bottle, but you can find them at any natural foods/medicinal stores.
I wash my face with it every single night. After I have rubbed it in for about two minutes, a take a washcloth and wet it with hot water, then lay it across my face for about 15 seconds, then wipe it off. You will love how awesome your skin looks and feels!
Body/Facial Scrub
-Vegetable Glycerin
-Salt or Sugar
Once again, no measurements here. Just pour the glycerin into a container and add the salt or sugar to the mixture until you reach the consistency you like. The salt settles, so I have to mix it with my fingers every time I use it. I use it at LEAST every other morning because I live in Arizona, so my skin gets dry really fast.
Face/Body Lotion
-Coconut oil (organic if you can swing it)
-Frankincense essential oils
-Lavender essential oils
Just follow the same mixing directions as the face wash.
You can add any essential oils you want. I just used lavender because my skin is dry (and it smells good) and the frankincense is good for wrinkles and breakouts.
Like I said, my skin looks and feels sooo much better!
Sorry I don't have any priddy pictures to show off. I literally just bought a couple of travel sized plastic bottles and labeled them with masking tape and a sharpie. Nothing too exciting :)
If you want to order DoTerra oils, contact me and I can help you out. I love them and use them for just about everything.

Tightening Loose Skin
There are so many potions and pills out there that claim to tighten and smooth your skin. And they all sound so enticing, especially after you've had kids, lost a large amount of weight, or experiencing losing elasticity that comes from aging. Either way, it's no fun.
After having two kids, I can say that the skin on my stomach took a nosedive towards the floor. Booo!
So, I wanted to share my successful skin tightening concoction with you.
The skin on my stomach is tighter now than it was after I had my first child! Awesome.
**********************************************************************
Do the same with Doterra Slim &Sassy oil, diluted with either olive oil or fractioned coconut oil. It doesn't matter which you apply first. You can even just mix it all together.
For even faster results, repeat again at bedtime.
If you want super speedy results:
+Add Herbalife Cell-U-Loss to your daily supplements
+Add 4 drops of Slim & Sassy to your water and sip throughout the day (try my metabolism boosting herbal tea recipe here)
+Eat a healthy diet. I highly recommend the combination method.
+Get at least 30 minutes of exercise 3-5 times per week
Find these products at here and here.
Stay tuned for a delicious and healthy Cookies n Cream milkshake recipe!
