Not Ready For No ‘Poo? Try Sorta ‘Poo With Coconut Milk and Castille

Last Updated on December 19, 2017 by Crunchy Betty

Not Ready For No 'Poo? Try Sorta 'Poo With Coconut Milk and Castille 1

It seems like no 'poo comes and goes in waves. Suddenly, 20 women will show up out of nowhere saying they're about to try it. With every wave comes a small, but vocal, backlash. "Backlash" may be a strong word. A better word may be "fear." There are always several people who say, "Never. I could never, ever try that." It's scary to go no 'poo. Even more, it doesn't work for everyone. No matter how hard you try, how badly you wish to be a no 'poo goddess, your hair has other plans. I'm not ... Continue Reading

Homemade Coconut Milk – The Recipe to Remember

Homemade Coconut Milk - The Recipe to Remember 5

Aristotle postulated that the essence of life is to serve others and do good. The Dalai Lama told us the purpose of life is to be happy. Douglas Adams said the answer to life, the universe, and everything is 42. I'm going to have to call shenanignas on all of it, because I have discovered the meaning, purpose, and answer to life. Today. It is homemade coconut milk. WAIT! Even if you've decided you hate coconut milk (for whatever ungodly reason), you're going to want to ... Continue Reading

The Difference Between Crunchy and Mainstream

    Thanks to Yahoo for the "9 Simple Steps to Younger Looking Eyes" headline, which I clicked on thinking there would be a fun DIY tip. Instead, it took me to this article by Allure. (If you don't want to click on it, 7 of the 9 steps suggest you buy something.) Your inspiration, along with every beauty magazine I've ever read, is invaluable. I'm not even being facetious.   ...

Food For Your Soul: For Heaven’s Sake, Just Have Fun

Last Updated on August 26, 2016 by Crunchy Betty

A few days ago, Skip and I were having our obligatory weekly heated disagreement about something like bills or wrinkled shirts or attempted arson, when he turned to me and looked, with his squinted-up, angry eyes and said: You really need to stop taking EVERYTHING so seriously, Betty. If ever there were fighting words, those are them. (Those and "Don't touch that cheese popcorn. It's mine.") Freaking angry as all get out, I turned to him ... squinted my eyes back harder than he could ... Continue Reading

Here we are, at the end of the week of learning how to slip things in to our daily routines in order to have clearer, softer, more beautiful skin. If you're just tuning in (or want to bookmark this post as a reminder of all of them) they are: Water. Drink 2-3 glasses of room-temperature, pure water upon waking up, before putting anything else in your mouth. Put Food On Your Face. Rub a little fruit or veggie on your face whenever you get a chance, rinsing it off after 10-20 ... Continue Reading

Slip It In For Beautiful Skin: Facial Massage and Acupressure

Last Updated on August 30, 2016 by Crunchy Betty

Back when I was modeling, Preparation H was all the rage. Preparation H under the eyes. Preparation H whenever you'd had a few too many the night before and your whole face was puffy. Preparation H everywhere. It smelled terrible and made your skin look pretty awful, too. Except that it reduced puffiness. Then, one afternoon at a go-see a fellow model was lamenting the fact that Preparation H didn't get rid of her teeny-tiny double-chinnish bump, when a man sitting nearby sashayed up and ...
