Tell us how it goes, once you make some lotion. Is the lady who sold the kit to you, someone local? I would like to learn how to make hard lotion, because I use a lot of lotion.

I was going to ask if it could retain scents, too. I guess it could not hurt to experiment. I would love to try to make a cinnamon apple scent. I bought some hand soap that had the loveliest cinnamon smell, that lingered on my hands. It was very nice.

Thank you for sharing this mask. Is it suppose to be good for something like dry skin? I think avacodo is suppose to be a moisturizer. I am not sure, though.

I stopped by Earth Fare today, to pick up a few things. I was in a hurry and did not get a good look, but I saw some aloe vera juice. I did not know you could drink aloe vera. Does anyone know what this juice is used for and if you can make it yourself?

Milk does help with heartburn. It also helps if you bite into a pepper that is very hot! I think peppermint or mint is suppose to help, but I am not sure.

I have heard the same thing Mrryh stated. Humans have lived for hundreds of years without antibacterial soap, so I don't think it would kill us to lay off of it. The antibacterial stuff probably kills the good germs along with the bad ones.

My husband is always watching those survival shows, and it made me think of a question. Is there a way that you can preserve meats naturally with herbs and berries?

I am going to need the name of that App soon, because I just can not stop eating Cadbury Caramel Eggs! I have the biggest sweet tooth, and it is always my downfall.

I am so glad I came upon this post, because I am prone to ear infections! I never knew to rub garlic oil behind my ear. I usually heat rice in a sock and lay on it.

I agree with the fact that you should not go below 1,200 calories a day. Is she trying to lose weight? If so, you definately need to help guide her in the right direction, because eating disorders are prevalent among young women.

I have not tried adding dandelion to my salads. Just add the leaves, right? I forget, but which part of the dandelion is poisonous? I will admit I do not know what goose tongue is, but it sounds like it would spice up anything! :)

I think if you experiment with different types of candles, like soy and beeswax, and the size of the candle you can fix your problem. Are soy candles the ones that are suppose to be the best type of candle due to health reasons?

It sounds like it could not hurt for a man to lower his iron intake. I actually did not know about iron being a possible reason why women live longer.

A long time ago, my husband got a sample in the mail of some kind of detox pad. You put it on your feet and the white pad turned black as it "sucked" all the toxins out. I just remembered about this, and wondered if anyone knew anything about it. What is in that bag?
