Easy & Effective Detox Bath!

As most of you know your body carries toxins, heavy metals, chemicals, & radiation. Detox Baths help naturally remove them.

I also felt the "disgusting toxins" being released through my feet/legs. It was strange yet cool. lol

*Your bathtub should be clean.
**It should be filled with unchloronated filtered water as hot as you can stand it comfortably.
(if you don't have access to filtered water add 2 tablespoons of Hydrogen Peroxide)





1.) Fill your tub with hot unchloronated water.
2.) Add 2 cups of baking soda to neutralize acids of the toxins. 
3.) Add 2 cups of Epsom Salts to water. It will help draw toxins out of the body. 
(If you have a rash or open cut, the salt will sting)
4.) Add 1 cup apple cider vinegar to bath 
(OPTIONAL!!! This will help cut bacterial, bladder or vaginal infections. It will also soften skin)



Soak in the water for about 30 mins.


*****Rinse off with water only as you do not want to put chemicals from soaps into your open pores/detoxed skin.*****


Here's my picture:

It is also very important that you drink lots of water when you do this to stay hydrated. I got a slight headache after for about 10 mins because I didn't drink water like I should have. :/



-Happy Detoxing-

Frugal Friday #1 DIY Grout Cleaner

So since I'm a makeup/nail polish junkie and also a wife and mommy, My dollars have to stretch. In order for me to splurge I have to cut costs else where. So every Friday I'll be sharing one of my tips or tricks!



Here goes the first one!


This was pinned on my pinterest a while ago, But looking at the grout throughout the house and remembering what it looked like brand new I was digusted.

This recipe is SAFE FOR CHILDREN & ANIMALS though it might leave them with a disgusting taste and smell (lol)


Recipe:

7 cups of water
1/2 cup baking soda
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup vinegar


So my squirt bottle was not big enough to hold all this liquid and im not gonna lie I winged it, no measurements at all. lol

 *let it sit for on the grout for about an hour & then scrub your heart out!*


THIS IS BEFORE!!!



AND THIS IS AFTER!!!!




It still worked AMAZINGLY and I'm gonna have to do it a second time because it was so damn disgusting. I actually wanna give myself the parent of the year award for allowing the kids continue using the 5-10 second rule. haha oh well!
