Basil essential oil is great for your hair and scalp. Massage the oil into scalp to stimulate circulation and promote hair growth.

“Mix your favorite body lotion with body oil (even a tiny bit of olive oil will work!) for an all over soft sheen. Mix a body bronzer with your favorite body lotion; it’s an easy, goof-proof way for a quick boost of color, especially when you are pressed for time!” -Michelle McKean, Beauty Mama blogger at ParentSociety.com
The coconut craze has become extremely popular recently. However, if you’re from the islands you probably grew up on this tropical fruit. Coconut water and milk are great, but I prefer another product that comes from coconuts: coconut oil! Every time my brother comes back from the Caribbean (where my family is originally from), I beg him to bring back fresh coconut oil. While coconut oil looks fatty and smells a bit strong, this product remains one of my all-time favorite beauty products because of all its benefits.
