• Also make sure that the oil you are buying is cold-pressed and preferably organic. I also use coconut oil as a moisterizer, it’s expensive but lasts awhile and you don’t need much.

• I’d like to know how to cut down on all the lubrication, haha! At least my boyfriend isn’t complaining. Condoms dry me out a little too. I agree with Superfood, keep an eye on your water intake.

• I would recomment dry brushing every few days with oil cleansing. It seems to work great for me, but I noticed that it doesn’t remove a lot of dead skin cells, which can cause you to break out if you don’t exfoliate after awhile. Other than that, it…

• Thanks guys! I’ll have to take it slow. I’ll definetly have to try the breathing and stretching. I’ve got an Ashtanga yoga video I’ve had for awhile. Time to whip it out and actually do it. I don’t have a show for another month, so next week when we…

• And another thing, it seems everytime I drink or smoke I eat poorly. Pizza at the end of the night to absorb the alcohol, sweets after smoking a joint… I do need a swift kick in the ass.

• Thanks for responding! I’d never thought I would come to point in my life where I would have second thoughts about wine, and especially beer. You’re right Pianissima, I don’t have enough crap in my body to absorb it and handle it without getting dru…

• I actually do have a copy of “Eating for Beauty” but my mum has had it for awhile now. Hmmm, time to get it back! I’m trying to eat a lot of hemp seeds at the moment. So that is a good start. Are there any other good beauty or hair books/websites yo…

• Thanks Queenfluff! I’ll definetly be cutting it. The only thing is going to a hairdresser without getting it washed haha. I’ve cut my hair in the past, so I may do it again this time too. I’ve been trying to grow out my hair for some time, but I gue…

• Queenfluff- my hair is pretty layered right now, and I also have bangs that I usually just sweep to the side. Rawmama- I’ll have to try the honey thing, thanks! My boyfriend told me last night that he really doesn’t want to me to cut my hair, I trie…

• I don’t think it’s raw. It’s not sproutable, made from ground wheat and would be considered a “dead food” wether it’s organic or not.

• I’d have to agree, it’s all fake. She’s got some shimmer bronzer that she applied onto her either fake or real tan. If you look at her feet in the first picture, they are a different color than her body. She’s also wearing “highlights” face makeup t…

• Honey colored pee means that your body is dehydrated. The lighter the better! If you drank more water (about an hour before you eat) you shouldn’t have any issues going to the bathroom. It does take a few days though. Try making green shakes in the …

• Well since you know what everyone is going to say, it should come to no surprise that you should be eating greens daily. Even if its just smoothie – get it in! You will see an improvement simply from that over time. Don’t worry about over eating or …

• No problem, I've been trying to do the same thing. I've even got my boyfriend into it (haha) though we get distracted. It's something you have to keep doing... for the rest of your life for steady results. But I guess that's with everything :)

• I usually eat avocado, or whatever is on my face afterwards. Maybe not all of it, but I can’t help it and I don’t think it’s gross. Sometimes half the mask won’t even reach my face because I’ve eaten it already haha.

• You can use it as a skin or hair rinse. I usually do it by eye – a tablespoon to one cup of water. It basically removes all the years of shampoo and conditioner buildup from your hair. It also makes it shiny. As for your skin, it restores its PH bal…
