So here’s the thing I didn’t tell you about last time…

Washing ball

These are one of the strangest cosmetics I have made.  Now they aren’t connected to seeing plants in a new way, but still worth sharing.

Girls, forget your expensive exfoliating scrubs and moisturisers.  I have found the answer, again from Neal’s Yard.  But it’s through through sheer daring that I made and used these.  I know they look like falafels, but, they work (my new favourite saying, btw).

The recipe

1 slice of old brown bread (I know!)

1 handful raisins

1 handful almonds

Blend them, using a hand blender is definitely the easiest.  Then roll into small balls.

I washed my face with half a ball this morning.  You don’t have to worry about gross tasting stuff getting in your mouth, this is really good.  The bread is really exfoliating and then the almonds really moisturise it.   Incredible really.
