Natural Plant Beauty Secrets

Sometime last month I attended a workshop conducted by my best friend's mom, Nazli Anwari on how to make face and body scrubs from candle nuts, avocados, gingers, jasmines, rice flour and more. Everything we were taught to make incorporates natural ingredients. Hence, it is safe to feed the skin these knowing that what has been applied is natural and chemical free. We learned how to make different types of teas (to soothe the throat, (relieve colds, to give energy and to detoxify). We learned how to make a turmeric body scrub, candle nut face scrub, papaya face mask and how to create a jasmine massage oil. 

It was SO enjoyable and informative, perfect for the woman who wants to live naturally and authentically. I must share the happiness with you. Here are a few pictures.

I'll share one of my favorite recipes shared with us during the workshop. This is how to make Kunyit Assam (A turmeric Tea which is fantastic for cleansing the intestinal tract).

Ingredients: 

1. 10gm turmeric tuber
2. 6gm assam or tamarind
3. 5gm cinnamon
4. 20gm palm sugar or honey
5. pinch of sea salt and powdered nutmeg

So what you do is grate the turmeric finely and boil it together in 100ml of water together with the cinnamon and nutmeg for 15 minutes. From here, strain into a cup and add sugar/honey and salt. Drink when cool. This can be consumed once a day (prefereably before breakfast). Keep in mind also that tamarind has laxative qualities, so timing when consuming this drink, is important! :)
