Avocado: Avocadoes were highly revered for their beautifying properties, and now we know that the oil of the avocado is an excellent emollient and moisturizer. Try taking one-half of an avocado and mashing it into a pulp. Apply the pulp evenly to your face and leave it on for 20 minutes, then rinse with tepid water. It is great for hydrating the skin and makes a wonderful winter skin treatment.
You can also use avocado slices under your eyes and allow it to soak in for at least 20 minutes. Watch your puffiness disappear and enjoy the cooling and moisturizing effects of avocado.
Mayan Hair Wrap: Combine one-half an avocado, one tablespoon of olive oil, half a banana and one egg yolk. Apply the mixture evenly to the hair and cover with plastic. Allow the mixture to sit for one hour, then simply rinse, shampoo and style the hair as usual. If you have long hair use an entire banana and avocado.
Rose Hip Seed Oil: The oil derived from the seed of rose hips is terrific for decreasing the signs of aging, scars and uneven coloration of the skin. Look for commercial products made with the oil, or purchase the oil itself online and mix it with olive oil for a nightly facial treatment.
