Whipped Fluffy Coconut Oil-Cream Video is up on YouTube!
Good Morning Maicurlies!
So I managed to squeeze in one last video for 2013! It is my simple and quick Whipped DIY Fluffy Coconut “Oil/Cream”. As I have mentioned in my Blog and in the video is use this as one part of some of the mixes I make. I use this for both my skin and my hair however I mainly use the Coconut Oil/Cream as the base of my Face & Body Moisturizer and would add other ingredients to it. I also occasionally add it to my DIY Hair Gel (Flaxseed Gel.) You can read about my Oil/Cream here and watch the video here.
The main ingredient is obviously Coconut Oil and this is actually the only ingredient you will need. I do add Essential oils to my mix (either Peppermint or Lavender) but this is completely optional. The two requirements for the mix are:
- To use semi solid coconut oil
- You must use a whisk (electric or hand held will work.) You can not use a blender as the blades will heat up the oil and turn it into a liquid.
I hope you enjoy my video! And I hope you are enjoying the last few days of this year with big hopes and dreams for the coming year!
Thanks

End of Year is Approaching
Good Afternoon Maicurlies,
Source: http://office.microsoft.com/
So the end of 2013 is approaching and this seems to be the time of reflection, where we look back at the year; the good, the bad and the ugly. Apart from looking back at aspects of my personal life, health, work and so on I also reflect on what happened to my hair and skin. One of the best ways that I can remember EVERYTHING that has happened is to keep a journal. I will expand on this in my next post by providing some examples and suggestions of what can be included in your journal … just to help brainstorm some ideas.
Getting back to it, I have to admit that I was not that diligent with my journal and that is something I will be changing in 2014. This Blog will help me be a little more diligent (I hope) since I will feel more accountable.
Nevertheless, even without a fully noted journal, I have to say that 2013 has been a great roll for me. I know I could do A LOT better especially in terms of my skin care (I can become very lazy!) but overall, I am happy and plan to strive for higher and better results next year!
I would love to hear how your year went!
Thanks

Casual Earthy Saturday
So I was going through Polyvore and got a little “Earth” inspired. I think this would be really cute for a quick stroll shopping or while sipping on some hot chocolate at a coffee shop!
I hope you have a fantastic weekend!

Third Styling Video – Simple Wash-N-Go is up on YouTube
Good Afternoon All!
This is just a quick post to say that I have my 3rd Styling Video on my “Simple Wash-N-Go” up on YouTube! As always I also have a link here. I consider this as is “simplified” method because I basically just apply my DIY Leave-In Conditioner to really damp/wet hair and then seal in the moisture with my DIY Mixed Sealing oil let it air dry and Go! (I fluff it out too once it is dry if I am at home otherwise I just go!)
On a side note, I am making notes on my planned videos of the styles I do with my hair and will start to throw in some of the styles I have never tired before. It will be interesting to load up videos of epic failed styles, which I am sure will happen!
Anyways it is getting closer to Christmas and I hope everyone is in the Festive mood! (I had to run out and do last minute shopping…as always!)
Have a fantastic day Maicurlies!
Thanks

Natural Ingredients for Skin Up
Hello Maicurlies!
I finally wrote my Natural Ingredients list for Skin care here. I decided to add it to the heading of “Mai Tips – Skin” . What I have done is to include the ingredients I use/have used as well as some of the popular natural ingredients (that I have come across – some of which I have not had the chance to use.) I could not write every single aspect of each ingredient (I already feel like I wrote toooo much) because I would end up writing a book! I basically just gave a very brief sum-up of each ingredient mentioned.
I would love to hear from you especially if you want me to add your favorite ingredient so let me know!
Thanks

Red & Black Winter Idea
Hello Maicurlies,
So I came across Polyvore while looking at a post made by Sass ‘N Culz that she called “Friday Sass—Christmas Night Out” and loved it! (She has great style btw!) So I figured why not throw in a little fashion as well.
Now I am not a “Fashionista” by any means but I do love clothes though! Every girl does right?
Red & Black winter by maicurlz featuring a black hosiery
So I basically thought this would be a really cute simple look! I only just started so I am still try to get to know the whole site, but it really is awesome!
What do you think?
Thanks

DIY Face & Body Sugar Scrub up on YouTube
Good Evening all!
While I already had the write-up of my Sugarcane Sugar Scrub already up on my blog here I did not have my video made yet. I finally started making some skin care videos and have loaded up my Scrub video on YouTube and also linked the video here in my blog.
This scrub can have so many variations in terms of the ingredients used so please feel free to replace certain ingredients to change things up (if you want.) E.g. Peppermint Essential Oil, Tea Tree Oil. Or use Molasses instead of Pure Honey. You of course can add ingredients too like coffee granules, orange zest…the list is endless!
I hope you enjoy the video and have fun making the scrub (I love making it for family, friends and myself of course!)
Thanks
