Book Reviews of Beauty Secrets of the BibleBook Review: Wonderfully refreshing in a barren world Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book within 3 hours and came out renewed!
My thought process on beauty reorganized & re prioritized thanks to her simple, Godly devotionals. And although I do make an effort to live healthy there are occasions when I'm tempted and give in to our commercialized garbage at the store...whether it be food,body care,clothes,etc.
I went shopping the day after I read the book and bought her beauty recommendations...all of them! ...food and all :) I should also add that while you read my review note that I'm bi-racial (bl/wh) and battle dry skin everywhere and have frizzy,bushy,slightly wavy hair. :)
It's only been a couple of days but I already feel better. I feel better just knowing that I have the absolute best yet surprisingly cheapest beauty routine that money can buy, my energy is up thanks to the organic nuts and raw honey and fruit, and my hair smells FABULOUS!! I ended up buying Aubrey Organics hair products and my scalp feels wonderfully fresh (no dandruff) and my hair is silky.
I used the facial wash recipe and followed with the honey & olive oil and within hours noticed that there was less redness. My pores shrank and my skin glowed! My favorite part was that I didn't have to be sure not to get nasty soap in my mouth or eyes...I actually licked my cleanser,toner, & moisturizer and went...MMMMM, YUMMY! My tip with the olive oil is to put it on a damp face so it redistributes better and your not left with oily spots.
Her website offers even more information. You can download invitations,recipes,and tip sheets to host your own Beauty Secrets of the Bible party. Sounds like fun! I'd enjoy doing that with my church women.
Now to go get a job just to afford the essential oils...BUT, then again I would've saved myself literally hundreds of dollars last year had I used this regimen instead, making the expensive oils pennies in a bucket.
If you're like me and possess a 'thing' with the lips...RUN, don't walk, RUN to the store and get yourself her fabulous tip of Burt's Bees lip products...balms,glosses,sticks. They ROCK!
Book Review: love this little book Summary: 5 Stars
I love this little book. I have my own copy which I've read over and over, underlined, dog-eared, etc, and now I've just purchased one to give away. I love the first 1/2 of the book best by far; the second half with natural skin care recipes, etc, didn't appeal to me, but I'm giving it to someone who does enjoy making her own skin creams and cleansers.
What I value about this book is summed up in this quote, "Your natural weight is simply defined as the weight you comfortably maintain with a lifestyle of daily exercise and healthy eating." Whenever I get tempted to fall back into diet craziness I reread the section on weight in this book. I love the biblical foundation and the promotion of healthy eating, healthy exercise, and then embracing your body ( even if it's not currently "fashionable") and living an abundant life!
Book Review: Sound foundation for Beauty Summary: 5 Stars
This book serves as an excellent resource for effective, efficient and economical tips for your beauty regimen. Great place to start for someone transitioning to more natural products. Beautiful skin is the foundation for beauty. Beauty Secrets of the Bible provides easy to use, basic recipes and routines that can help you achieve the goal of beautiful skin. My daughters (15 and 9) and I immediately started using some of the suggestions and we're pleased with the results. Furthermore, the biblical scriptures give a refreshing perspective about beauty. Plus the book sheds light on many of the products that our culture says we have to use in order to maintain beauty, but can actually be more harmful than good.
Book Review: Pampered! Summary: 5 Stars
In a culture that seduces women with $35 one-ounce vials of "miracle" lotions and potions, who would guess that the answer to so many beauty concerns can be found in one's own pantry? And for a fraction of the cost. Powdered milk and oatmeal to wash and exfoliate? Surprisingy effective. Honey to nourish and plump up fine lines? Shockingly NOT sticky. Olive oil to moisturize? Can you say "pampered"? And that's just the beginning. Ginger Garrett not only frees up our credit cards by letting us in on ancient beauty secrets that are sure to hit the cosmetic industry in its collective pocketbook, but backs it up with research. And did I mention the daily devotions? Beauty outside and in!
Book Review: Not an author - just a woman Summary: 5 Stars
Where do I begin? I don't have much of a beauty routine, especially when it comes to skin care. After reading Ginger's book, I just HAD to give the honey tonic a try. I mean, what woman wouldn't want to try to get rid of fine lines & wrinkles naturally.
It's working!!! I LOVE the way my skin feels.
Ginger has managed to debunk the billion dollar beauty industry by promoting products that are right in our cabinets (or at least easily attainable). I have even started using the milk/oatmeal mixture on my kids.
What a great way to show the beauty that God has given each of us, without spending a fortune. This is a MUST READ for every woman!
