Why Buy Expensive Skin Care Products....When You Can Make Them at Home

 
 

Tiered of paying outragious prices for skin products?

When I owned my Day Spa I offered the option of all natural products or the EXPENSIVE Bio-elements collection. The natural products where not only a hit and chosen in over 60% of the treatment, they worked just as well (IF Not Better) in producing the final product of rejuvenated, exfoliated, soft and glowing skin.

This page describes mainly on how to create a lovely gift basket for a great friend or someone you love, but these at home products are great slumber parties or a vegie and movie night at home with the girls......Enjoy 

Beauty Baskets:

Share these all natural body care products with friends and family. A gift basket is a great, inexpensive way to share these all natural beauty treatments.

Grab one of those many baskets you have around the house. If you are unpleased with the color, easily change it with a can of spray paint. To individualize your basket further, use a colorful ribbon around the rim of the basket or attach firmly to the handle. Attach ribbon by weaving it through the basket, use a hot glue gun to hold the ribbon firmly in place.

Don’t Have Ribbon? Or maybe want a more vintage look? Use an old shirt or cotton material and tie a single bow around the handle or just hot glue to the front. Cut another piece of the materal and lay flat over knot tied in the bow, and glue. Another idea; Cut three long, thick pieces of cotton material, tie the three pieces together at one end. Brade the materialand tie at the opposite end. Hot glue brade around the rim or base (leaving knots unglued). When glue is dry, cut off both knots.
