Oh, the price to pay for being Queen!


They say that brushing your teeth with crushed strawberries gives you a brighter smile,

that wine is a natural skin softener and exfoliant,

and washing your face with red wine which contains alpha hydroxy acids is a goood thing to do.

Kitty litter exfoliant, Preparation H cream to treat bags & dark circles under eyes, and drinking donkey milk for fant-ass-tic skin...


oh, the price to pay for being QUEEN!


Mix the following ingredients into a thick paste:
-
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup ground coffee
4 tbsp olive oil
Apply to troublesome areas during your shower and massage in a circular motion.
This exfoliating scrub softens and smooths while the caffeine in the coffee tightens.
You can adjust the recipe to your desired consistency if you find it to be too wet or dry.
Also, you can substitute sugar for sea salt if you wish.

Being allergic to most perfumes

and habitually anti-regimen when it comes

to skin care I will share that I do have a

want of being "girly" at times

tho it does not always fit into my care-free lifestyle...

still I FEEL I am a QUEEN.
