If you have sensitive or acne-prone or dehydrated facial skin, then you can make your own face products using shea butter. One of them is this shea butter face cream which is so soft and nourishing to skin of all types. Since it contains aloe vera in it, it’s non-greasy and tightens skin, making it great for acneic and oily skin types. It’s also healing for dry skin since it contains olive oil, a high fat oil that is rich in Vitamin E.

► What you need: Shea butter, olive oil, aloe vera gel, apricot kernel oil, vitamin e oil, vanilla essential oil.
► How to Use: Massage it on a clean face using clean finger tips once or twice a day: in the morning & at night.
► Shelf Life: 4 months and more

Homemade hair milks are so luxurious for the hair and they’re filled with hair loving ingredients! You can decide how thick you want your hair milk to be but I love my homemade hair milk to be just a little thick so I can gently pour it all over my scalp and hair and massage it in using my fingertips. This shea butter hair milk recipe is perfect for those of you who want to strengthen weak hair strands and rejuvenate inactive hair follicles.

Next slather it on your hair strands from root to tip. When the whole process is done, tie up your hair with a hair clip and wrap a baggy to trap heat. Leave it on for about 30 minutes or more to work its magic then wash off as usual.
► Shelf Life: Since it contains coconut milk, this hair milk can easily go bad so refrigerate it and use within the week. I recommend using this hair milk treatment every week or every once in 2/3 weeks for those with protein-sensitive hair.
