DIY: make-up brush conditioner spray

Hi beauties,

So as you can tell I have taken a liking to making DIY products and have been using cute little packaging to store all my DIYs in.

I spent my whole afternoon washing my make-up brushes as you know that is part of the deal if you are a make-up artist! Whilst washing my brushes I thought to myself how can I condition the brushes without using conditioner and keeping my hands under water, why not make a little spray! 

So today's DIY post will be on how to make your own little brush conditioner - the trick to keeping your brushes beautifully soft for longer! 

Materials:

- decorative paper (optional) 

- scallop paper cutter (optional) 

- travel spray bottle  (click here to get the same bottle as me for a reasonable price!) 

- organic conditioner (any will do)

- fragrance oil (I chose Jasmine but this is optional) 

- double sided tape

Instructions:

1. Cut the decorative paper to size so that it fits around the diameter of the travel sized bottle

2. Label the bottle 'brush conditioner' and stick the scalloped cut out paper to the decorative paper with double sided tape, leave this to one side - we will be sticking this after the mixture of the spray is complete! 

3. Open the bottle and squeeze in 1/3 of the conditioner

4. Now pour in 2/3 of water to fill up the bottle 

5. Add a few drops of your chosen fragrance oil and screw back on the spray nozzle! 

6. Stick double sided tape, on the back of the label you created with the decorative paper. Stick this around the bottle to create your finished DIY! 

YOU'RE DONE! 

Shake the bottle well before use, and spray your brushes when you feel they need a little TLC!

You can also use this on the ends of your hair if your hair feels a little coarse and dry! 

Hope you enjoyed this DIY post!

DIY - white musk & jasmine bath salts

Hi beauts!

This is my FIRST ever DIY post, as I love all things beauty related I thought hey, why not try out some home-made beauty DIY's?! 

So for my first DIY, I have decided to go ahead and do my own easy receipe on bath salts. This week I haven't been feeling very well, and I feel as thought I would love to relax in some way - a hot bath? But just a hot bath will not satisfy me so I thought why not make some bath salts that smell great! 

I didn't specifically use any accurate measurements for this, I simply worked it out visually and smelt the salts as I went along! 

Check out the details below on how to make your own bath salts! 

Things you will need:

1. Any suitable salts that you can use in the bath, preferably Epson or Sea salt however for this DIY I used Rock salt as this is all I had to hand. (Rock salt is totally fine too!) 

2. Mica powder (optional to colour the salts) 

3. Essential oils or fragrance oils (I used fragrance oils - White musk & jasmine) 

4. A glass or plastic air tight jar (to purchase the same air tight jar used on my blog: click here) 

5. Bowl to mix the salt, oils and powder in

5. Spoon ( to mix the mica powders, oils andsalts together) 

6. Ribbon (optional) 

Instructions:

1. Pour the desired amount of bath salts into the bowl, and begin by mixing the mica powders. So this slowly so that pigment is light to start with and eventually you can work your way up to the colour you want! 

2. Once your salts are the colour you want them to be, you can now go ahead and add the fragranced oils. Again, add slowly and mix and then add more if you wish to have a more intense scent. It is best to keep the fragrance light as the whole point of bath salts is to create an atmosphere which is relaxing! 

3. Once all the mixing is done, pop the salts into the air tight jar and you are done!! 

4. You can also add little pretty touches to the jar of you were going to give this as a gift to a friend. It's a unique gift and definitely beautiful! 

Check out the photos to my little jar of bath salts!
