Babushka's Beauty Secrets Giveaway!

DON'T SPEND A FORTUNE TO LOOK FLAWLESS Esthetician to the stars Raisa Ruder learned her time-tested beauty techniques from her Ukrainian grandmother (or babushka, as they say in the old country). Now everyone can discover the all-natural, better-than-botox secrets the Hollywood stars use to shine on the red carpet! Ruder reveals her sought-after beauty recipes that can fight wrinkles, plump lips, and eliminate crow's feet and acne, using inexpensive, everyday grocery items like eggs, honey, vegetable oil and strawberries (and a splash of vodka for freshness!). At last, by popular demand, Raisa Ruder opens up her babushka's secret pantry and shares her most amazing and effective beauty advice:

  • Skin-saving Soufflés - whipped up wonders that shrink pores, brighten skin, and diminish lines
  • Chocolate weight-loss wrap- a moment on the hips, tightens, tucks, and nips!
  • Hot hair- a cayenne pepper blend that leaves locks silky, soft, and full
  • PediPure- a soothing, smoothing foot scrub made with milk and mint
  • Lustrous Lashes - a simple castor oil serum that thickens and lengthens
  • Perfect Pucker- a mix of salt, green tea, and fruit that plumps up lips naturally
  • And much more...

    I would love to win this book. I am trying to replace all of the chemicals I use with more natural solutions. I am tired of using harsh products full of chemicals on my body because I have started to wonder what the long term damage may be.

    Let me tell you... tea tree oil mixed with vitamin E skin oil works so well on blemishes and cuts. The tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic (it has a smell you need to get used to, though... not bad, just sharp), and the vitamin E helps heal. If there is inflammation, maybe even infection, boil some water, add some sea salt, drop in a chamomile tea bag, add some tea tree and vitamin E oil and then use the tea bag as a compress. It's amazing.

    1 I mix sugar with olive oil for a great hand scrub that gets off all the dry skin and scrubs all the dirt from the garden out of my skin and leaves my hands soft and silky! Just wash with a bit of dish liquid afterwards.

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to leave a comment. It's appreciated.
