  • So glad to have found The Motherhood! I'm a WAHM of three (10, 8 and two) who writes, blogs and spokespersons about eco-friendly living. I publish www.EcoStiletto.com, where we give away $500 in free shoes each month and $100 in weekly swag to members (sign up, already!) and blog at www.MommyGreenest.WordPress.com. I look forward to learning more about this 'hood! xxRachel

So while I'm waiting for the video to load, I'll tell you that the secret ingredient to this recipe is honey. Honey is a natural emollient, which means it helps the skin trap moisture. When I visit my family in Santa Fe, I always stick a bunch of organic honey sticks in my carry on. At night, I crack open one of those sticks and slather the stuff on my face. I leave it on for 10 minutes or so and wash it off. (It helps if I haven’t already had dessert. Yum.) It leaves my skin super dewy and soft, minus pore-clogging oil. Sugar is a natural exfoliant, as is oatmeal, which also has colloidal--or soothing--properties. I've used whipped egg whites on my skin for years to cleanse and minimize pores--recently I heard that egg whites also increase the production of collagen, which is something I didn’t care about as a tweenager. I’m not a beauty scientists so I can’t tell you exactly how it breaks down. But for those of you who are trying this right now, tell me how you look in 10 minutes. ;-)

Blend in one tablespoon of (preferably organic) honey, and then one packet of (again with the organic) instant, unflavored oatmeal (leave it uncooked).

Sorry, got waylaid by the pink ribbon discussion. Okay, strain one (organic, free range preferably) egg white into a bowl, then blend in six tablespoons of (organic, preferably) sugar with a fork. I actually used an old fashioned mortar and pestile and I love that.

I love scrubs but don’t like that most of them contain oil. I like things that can be used on my face, hair and body--and oil isn’t one of them, no matter how pure, it still gives me zits and always ends up in my hair. So I created this EcoStiletto Essential DIY Scrub & Mask that I’m totally addicted to--I’ve been using it every day for the past three days (okay I’m a little obsessive) and seriously my skin has never been better. My blackheads are gone, my giant pores are smaller and my skin feels super soft and clean.
