Organic-Shampoo-With-Green-Tea

Green tea is good for health and aloe vera is good for skin but do you know that a combination of both can make a great haircare product? It will be your DIY shampoo that you can make at home if you drink green tea and have aloe vera in your kitchen garden.

But never mind if you don’t drink green tea and nor have aloe vera plant at home. And there’s little need to use fresh tea bags as you can use used tea bags.

Let’s start

• Take 200 ml of fresh water in a pan and put a used bag of green tea in it. Allow the tea bag to boiling for 25 minutes.

• Remove the pan from gas after the said time and let it cool. Add 200 ml of a good quality liquid soap to the boiled water and some aloe vera gel extracted from plant leaves. Also, add 1 tsp of olive oil to the boiled water.

• For fragrance, you can add a few drops of essential oils like lavender or rose to the solution. Since the mixture is free from chemicals found in commercial shampoos, you won’t require a conditioner after washing your hair with green tea.

• Simply rinse the shampoo through your hair and wash with cold water to get clean hair. Also, you can keep the DIY shampoo in a bottle for future use.

If you don’t drink green tea or have aloe vera at home, you can buy aloe vera plant and green tea bags to make DIY shampoo.

Disclaimer: Take care while mixing ingredients as the quality of the shampoo would depend on the concentration. Also, be careful of the side effects.… Find more

Here’re important tips for pre and post-Holi celebrations to prevent colors from damaging your skin and hair

Pre Holi Skin Care

A little caution and care could help in keeping your skin safe from the irritating side-effects of Holi-colors

• Start with applying oil on your skin over your hands, forearms, neck, and upper back to create a protective layer against the colors.

• Cover your face with quality sunscreen to prevent the skin from sun rays and the colors.

• Paint your nails to prevent Holi colors from spoiling your nails. Apply one or two coats of nail paint according to the quality and consistency of the nail paint.

Pre Holi Hair Care

Your tresses are more vulnerable to Holi color as the colored grains of Gulal can penetrate inside and sit on the roots of the locks.

• Apply a good amount of quality hair oil on your locks. Make sure that the oil seeps deep inside the locks.

• Try tying the locks together to prevent exposure to Holi colors. You can try a single knot or make braids.

• It will be much better if you can wear a hair mask a few days before the celebrations begin.

Post Holi Skin Care

Playing Holi with family and friends is enjoying especially after taking necessary skincare. Post celebrations, your skin needs another healing touch.

Start with a cleanser followed by a scrub to clean the skin pores exposed to Holi colors.
