Stronger Nails

Have any of you tried the old Wives' Tale that eating gelatin will improve your nails? Well...I did.
Every day for 6 months before my wedding, I ate gelatin. EVERY. DAY. That's 183 servings. Know what? My nails were just a flaky and weak as before, except I developed an aversion to gelatin. It seriously took me years to even look at a packet of it in the store.

This recipe was the very first thing I tried, and now I have the nails I used to envy in others.



Bye Bye Brittle Nails

These are the only 3 oils you need!



















2 Drops Frankincense
2 Drops Lemon
2 Drops Myrrh
1 Oz Carrier Oil


Apply 2-3 Times Daily



WAIT WAIT WAIT you say....What's a Carrier Oil?!

Since Essential oils are an oil, they need to be diluted with an oil or an alcohol. We call this a "carrier oil," some examples are grapeseed oil, fractionated coconut oil (FCO), or Young Living's V6 Oil

For my recipe, I chose to use grapeseed oil since I had it in my pantry already.


WANT TO KNOW A SECRET?


There are plenty of glass bottles on Amazon that are perfect for these blends. Just add the essential oils and fill the rest with the carrier oil! Remember, only use glass or medical grade plastic when storing oils and blends -- essential oils can eat through plastic!

(seriously...I almost lost my steam mop reservoir to it!)
