I am watching the Today Show, and Megan Murphy, deputy editor of Self Magazine showed a few homemade recipes for lip gloss, body scrub, bath salts and a vanilla-clove body spray. These recipes are on the front page of the magazine online at www.self.com. Here are 2 of the easy recipes.
Pom Lip Gloss
1/2 cup petroleum hjelly
1 scoop or 2 packets Natural Cherry Pomegranate Crystal Light (the powdered drink mix).
3 or 4 small (lip gloss size) jars with lids.
Mix petroleum jelly and Crystal Light in a bowl, adding 1 teaspoon water, a few drops at a time and mix until gloss turns berry red. Use small spatula to smooth formula into jars. Great for little gifts for friends.
Vanilla-Clove Body Spray -- experts say vanilla stirs up feelings of intimacy!!!!
Mix 1/2 cup walnut, almond or jojoba oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 5 drops clove oil. Pour mixture into a small spray bottle and shake.
You can get small jars with lids and spray bottles at stores like Michael's and possibly craft stores.
There are 2 more recipes for a body scrub and a great peppermint and strawberry foot scrub on the self.com website.
I think I'll try making the body spray and lip gloss.
