disclaimer: i copied this from http://www.janicebeauty.com/beauty.htm i have not come up with any of these!
Well, I found an article like that once, and I read it and ate it up! I now actually use all those weird beauty tricks and many of them work. For example, I like using toothpaste on zits. It absorbs the oil and makes it a lot less red. I also put 1 part vinegar and 5 parts water mixture on my hair for 10 minutes before washing to add shine. I use mashed up avocado as a moisturizer, mist my hairbrush with hairspray to help my hair hold volume/shine and smother cold sores in deep moisturizing cream. I've also made a face wash out of honey and sugar, it was supposed to help with acne, didn't work too well but smelled great. If you dedicate a little time to internet searching you can find all types of weird crap like this.
Well, one that I use for an easy face mask is whole milk and cocoa powder (not cocoa mix but the unsweetened stuff), you just mix a little mix and enough cocoa to make a paste.
To use:
Wash face
Apply mask
Let set (it won't actually dry) for 15 minutes or so
Rinse completely
Use avocado and honey. My mother, at 98, only has wrinkles around her eyes. he eats avocado all the time, is good for your digestive system. She uses it as butter for her bread. She also uses it as face mask, alternating with honey. She puts it in her hair as an oil bath. She also uses honey to scrub her legs and to whitten her teeth. She is a sweet lady!
This website has lots of good at home recipes: http://www.makeyourcosmetics.com/
Here are some home made recipes I know of:
Oatmeal, egg whites, and honey for a face mask
Baking soda mixed with water for face mask for acne
Brown sugar mixed with olive oil for a body scrub
You can make a homemade hair conditioner that you use when your hair is very dry. I do not know the exact amount of every thing but I am sure if you look up these ingredients then you will find the exact amounts.
You use Mayo, Tomato, and Vinegar

I found that vinegar works wonders on cleaning hair. It sounds gross, but it really works. It strips your hair of its oils.
azacados oatmeanl squashed cucumbers mixed together make a great facial i had to do it at camp(no homo)
Brush with baking soda once a week to make your teeth whiter. It tastes terrible, but it works!
Honey Mask Recipe
The best facial mask is honey. Place a cloth in warm water and apply to your face to open the pores. Smear on honey, and leave on for 15 to 30 minutes. Rinse off with warm water, then use cold water to close the pores. Use once a week.
Miracle Whip Exfoliator
(By Victoria, Anti-aging Beauty Tips)
';Yes, I am talking about the same Miracle Whip your Aunt Mable uses in her macaroni salad. Apparently, women all over the US are using this salad dressing ingredient on their faces to remove dead flaky skin.
I have not tried it myself, but supposedly, KRAFT MIRACLE WHIP Exfoliating Facial makes an amazing treatment for normalizing over-oily skin.
Here is how you apply this ';miracle cream';:
Make sure all your hair is pulled back from your face. Apply a thin layer of the KMW all over your face, up to the eyelashes and make sure to also put some on your neck. The ';fumes'; from the vinegar may bother you so walk around the house to try to escape them. LOL!
Leave on for 10 minutes, then massage gently. The dead skin cells on your face will roll off in rubbery little balls. Rinse your skin with tepid water, then cleanse as usual following your regular beauty regime. If you apply the KMW every day, in 6-8 weeks your skin should be completely renewed.
I cannot help but wonder if this Miracle Whip eats away at the dead skin cells on your face, what does it do to the inside of the body when someone eats it?? Pretty scary!!! One person believes that the vinegar in the Miracle Whip is what causes the exfoliation and rejuvenation. If that is true, why not try a mixture of organic apple cider vinegar with some olive oil, apply that and see what happens? One could whip together the olive oil and apple cider vinegar, apply it to their face and then use the leftovers on their salad!
I think I will start experimenting with some ingredients and try to come up with a facial recipe to rival the KRAFT MIRACLE WHIP!';
Special Note from Lucie (site owner):
';After reading Victoria's email about the Miracle Whip beauty trick (the above is an excerpt from that email), I bought a small jar of Miracle Whip. I applied a slighter thicker layer than was recommended and the vinegar smell was unpleasantly strong.
After a minute or two, the Miracle Whip 'melted' and my face was very shiny and oily (yuck!). After 10 minutes, I washed the Whip away and I couldn't believe the results. All the flaky dry skin was gone and my skin felt tight and smooth. Very strange!';
