Time Out For Momma...

So I spent this morning taking care of my skin!

I have a great book on natural lotions and potions... So I gave myself some beauty time....

First I took some oatmeal, and gently rubbed it on my face and neck (avoiding the delicate areas, like under my eyes)until my skin was nice and smooth and pink...

Then I added a little water, to make a paste, and I spread that on, and sat still till it dried... Then washed it off with a warm, damp washcloth.

Then I put 2 tsp of Rosemary in a bowl, and added a kettle of boiling water, threw a towel over my head and steamed my face for 15 minutes... Rosemary is great for improving circulation! After that, I splashed some cold water on my face and patted dry...

Then I mashed up some strawberries, added a little cream, and slathered that on... (Boy did that freak out Patrick!!! He kept hugging me and asking if I was ok!!!)

Left it on for 20 minutes and then washed it off...

And I look GREAT!!! My skin looks brighter and is smooth and pretty and pink!
