beauty part 3:]

hey beautifuls and handsomes! :] just to let you all know, I am kinda getting my ideas from the book "The Inside-Out Beauty Book" by Sandra Byrd! today, I am going to be taking a lot of ideas from her book.
the first thing you usually look at in a person is their hair. the color etc. from this book we see this,
"The phrase "bad hair day" has become a part of our vocabulary, and we use it to describe anyonewho might be crabby. Why? Because too much of our mood depends on what our hair looks like."
I have to admit...I am always worried about my hair...:P oops! but, Sandra gives us a great idea.

"Time on Hair=Time in Prayer
How much time each day do you spend onyou hair? We all want hair that looks lovely, that shines, that is attractive to ourselves and to others. But what really makes us attractive? The most important shine we have is the light we shine into the world-that attracts others to the One who is in us, Jesus Christ.

Let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father. Matthew 5:16 (from me-lovely verse isn't it?)

Tune in to Him through prayer to know wht good deeds to do. Here's a simpe equation: time on hair = time in prayer. If you spend ten minutes a day brushing, styling, or checking on you hair, be sure you spend ten minutes a day praising, talking with, and spending time with God. It doesn't have to be all at once-five minutes twice a day is good, too. You can start a prayer notebook-write down your prayer requests, and then when it is answered write down the date and how it was answered. When you're feeling blu, you can look back over them and gain faith and courage. You'll be someone whose inner beauty lights u everything around you, and that's the beauty that counts!"

Wow. What a great little equation to use. I need to do that :] and like it says at the end "that's the beauty that counts!" really, it is. and let me give you another little hint-people don't like you for how you look...they like you for who you are!

Recipe for today-
"Remember, healthy hair comes from a healthy body. Once it's out of the scalp, though, you can condition it to keep it in good, smooth shape. Buy a gentle conditioner to partner with your shampoo, and for extra-special care, mix up a special treat for your tresses.

Tropical Conditioner
You'll need:
1 avacado (peeled and mashed)
light coconut milk
Combine the mashed avocado with some coconut milk. Mash together until it's smooth and about as thick as shampoo. Comb it through the hair and let it sit for ten to fifteen minutes. Wash out."


So-how cool is that?
also-
"Shampoos with some of these scents will get you in just the right mood:
Lavender helps you relax.
Rosemary energizes you.
Rose smells fresh.
Mint wakes you up."

I hope you have enjoyed this post and remember-to pray while you get beautiful. that way your not just wasting your time getting ready and thinking about yourself. you can also be thinking about the one who made you beautiful! <3
