Looking for almond pulp recipes? This organic almond pulp skin srub is one of the easiest ways to use your leftover almond pulp. I don't know about you, but I don't put anything on my skin that I wouldn't put in my mouth. I am a huge supporter of natural organic food grade skin care, but an even bigger fan of making my own homemade skin care with organic food and food grade products in my kitchen. This way, I know the exact source of the ingredients, how fresh they are, and in what ratios and quantities they have been mixed together. I can also muscle-test the ingredients and test them against my skin as I make up my potions to know if they are a good fit for my skin from week to week, and season to season. I also like to be in... Keep Reading

I have this rule: “if I can’t put a spoon in it and put it into my body, I can’t put it on my body”!

So, you guessed it, I look to my kitchen, grab my blender (my Vitamix) for inspiration and always blend up homemade skincare that beats anything I can find on the grocery store shelf. I will use my... Keep Reading
