Might Cause Magic

African Black Soap

Is black soap worth all the hype?

Is black soap causing magic?

On our skin, absolutely yes.

I repeat. Absolutely YES

Black soap is worth all the hype and attention.

African Black Soap is ranked high on the might cause magic list for no other reason than it really cleans your body..

While the recipe varies, ABS is handmade from the ashes of cocoa pods, Shea tree bark and plantain leaves, then mixed with various soothing and healing oils such as Shea butter, palm oil and coconut oil, creating its deliciously distinct aroma.  And don’t let it’s appearance fool you — although dark brown and crumbly in texture, this African-born skincare miracle will become a staple in your daily cleansing routine.

It’s benefits are awesome and severely underrated - Here’s why ABS is so amazing:

It’s suitable for all skin types.  Whether your skin is a dry oasis or an oil slick (or somewhere perfectly in between), black soap is for you.  Regular use will help remove excess oils.

It’s a super cleanser.  But wait — there’s more.  The charcoal in ABS can help absorb body odors and bacteria, plus it is gentle enough for makeup removal.

African Black Soap is soothing and healing.  This double whammy is perhaps the most notable.  If you suffer with rashes or skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, the ashes in black soap helps reduce irritation and can even be used by people with sensitive skin.  While ABS cannot remove acne, since that is caused by the release of excessive oils within the skin rather than dirt buildup, it can reduce the appearance of acne scars.

It’s a fountain of youth.  Awaiting applause….  Yes, ABS may help you turn back the hands of time. This gentle exfoliate may help reduce the appearance of fine lines and skin discolorations that indicate the early signs of aging skin.

We encourage you to use black soap.

Lemon Mint Cucumber (LMC) DETOX Water

Now that Thanksgiving is over, Christmas will soon be here. This is the prefect opportunity to detox.

It’s good for hydrating and detoxing (or removing impurities from) the body. The lemon, mint, cucumber combination cleanses, aids in digestion and re-hydrates. 

 MINT CUCUMBER WATER

Makes 1 gallon-size pitcher

12 cups of water (3 quarts)
2 to 3 lemons, thinly sliced (you can also substitute limes or mix it up…use a lemon/lime combination–using organic lemons or limes is best)
1 small cucumber or 1/2 of a medium to large cucumber, preferably organic, thinly sliced
10 to 15 mint leaves. preferably organic

Rinse lemons and cucumbers very well before slicing; slice thinly. Add lemons, cucumber, and mint to pitcher. Cover with water and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight (the flavor will be stronger if you refrigerate overnight, but I like the lighter flavor, too). Pour in a large glass over some ice…it’s very refreshing! This water tastes best the day of or day after it's made! Mine is brewing Now!

ENJOY!

Who Owns You? 20% of the Genes in Your Body are Patented (Video) | Singularity Hub

Are YOU a 21st Century SLAVE?????

Here’s a disconcerting thought: for the past thirty years, genes have been patentable. And we’re not just talking genetically modified corn – your genes, pretty much as they exist in your body, can and have been patented. The US government reports over three million gene patent applications have been filed so far; over 40,000 patents are held on sections of the human genome, covering roughly 20% of our genes.

Upset? You’re not alone. Critics argue that the patents stifle potential research into disease, keep new treatments off the market, and bring in serious money to Big Pharma – all by exercising property claims that shouldn’t exist. After all, genes aren’t inventions, which are patentable – they’re discoveries, which aren’t. As Luigi Palombi noted recently at the Open Science Summit, “You can’t patent Mount Everest; why can you patent a gene?” Here, we review the history of genetic law, the current state of affairs, and interview David Koepsell, an attorney and author of a recent book on gene patenting, Who Owns You? The Corporate Gold Rush To Patent Your Genes.

Amazing Tips for Your Home

TRULY AMAZING TIPS:  These are truly amazing facts for those of us who are now looking for natural alternatives in our homes. Now that families are watching their dollars and use a budget to make ends meet, these Amazing Tips will definitely come in handy and save you money.

 

1.     Aspirin: Get Rid of Armpit Stains on T-Shirts - Grind up an aspirin tablet or two, than make a paste out of it using water, lemon or vinegar. Spread the paste on the stained area and let sit for an hour before washing.

 

2.     Olive Oil: Make Pets’ Coat Shinier - Add a bit of olive oil to your pet’s food to give them a healthier, shinier coat of fur.

3.     Newspapers: Clean Windows and Mirrors - Instead of using a spray and a streaky cloth, use only newspaper to clean off your mirrors and windows for a streak-free finish.

4.     Baking Soda: Remove Bugs from Windshield - Mix baking soda with warm water to make a paste. Spread the paste over your windshield for fifteen minutes. Then wipe or spray off with a hose.

5.     Bleach: Extend Life of Flowers in Vase - Add a few drops of bleach to vase water to prevent the build-up of the slime caused by bacteria. It works just like chlorine in a swimming pool.

6.     Kitchen Dish Soap: Flea-Killing Dog Shampoo - Kitchen dish soap (not dish detergent) can double as dog shampoo for its flea killing abilities.

7.     Coke: Remove Blood Stains from Clothing - Soak the stain in coke until the stain is dissolved, then wash the clothing as usual. Wash before the coke dries, though.

8.     Honey: Remove Blemish Overnight - Have a blemish you need to get rid of by tomorrow? Put a dab of honey on the blemish and cover it up (it’s best to use a Band-Aid) and the honey’s natural antibacterial properties will clean out the bacteria by the morning.

9.      Wax Paper: Clean Can Opener Gears - Run a few small strips of wax paper through the can opener to clean out of the bits and pieces that have built up in the gears throughout the year. The wax will also rub off on the gears to protect for future use as well.

10.  WD-40: Remove Crayons from Walls - Use the lubricant and a cloth to remove stubborn crayon marks from the walls just by spraying the wall and wiping with a cloth.

11. Chalk: Keep Ants and Slugs Out of the House - Ants and Slugs Won’t Touch Chalk. So, simply draw a line in front of your doorway where you are having problems with these pesky critters and they won’t cross it, meaning they won’t be able to get into your house.

12. Vinegar: Kills Weeds and Helps Flowers Grow - Vinegar is a magic wonder when it comes to gardening. It not only kills weeds but they help flowers grow as well. Douse vinegar all around your garden to prevent weeds from popping up and to help your flowers to grow healthy and strong.

13. Mayonnaise: Remove Bumper Sticker - Spread mayonnaise on the bumper sticker and let sit for at least thirty minutes. Then, rub the sticker off with a towel, leaving a clean bumper!

14. Tin Foil Ball: Replace Dryer Sheets Permanently - Instead of using a dryer sheet ball up one or a few sheets of tin foil and toss it in the dryer. It removes the static electricity from your clothes and one can last up to a year.

15. Banana Peel: Polish Leather Shoes - Use the inside of a banana peel to give shoes a professional and natural shine that will last for quite some time.

16. Mouthwash: Cure Athlete’s Foot - Pour mouthwash on cotton balls and then swab your feet. The alcohol will disinfect the bacteria completely if you continue this for a week or so.

17. Baking Soda: Clean BBQ Grill - Mix a cup of baking soda with half a cup water to make a paste. Dip your brush into the paste and scrub the grill. The caked on pieces and black residue will come off much quicker and using baking soda is much safer and cheaper than using cleaning chemicals.

18. Coffee Grounds: Fertilizer - Coffee is full of nutrients and vitamins that are very beneficial to soil. That’s why some people include it in compost piles. If you want to get the most out of your coffee, pour the grounds on areas where you want more grass or flowers.

19. Olive Oil: Shaving Cream - The smoothness of the oil can replace the need for shaving cream, and it also provides great moisture.

20. Dryer Sheets: Gets Rid of Static Electricity - Use dryer sheets to remove static electricity from things such as clothing, TV screens or your own hair. Tame fly away strands by running a dryer sheet over them.

21. Freezer: Freeze Candles to Make Them Last Longer - Put candles in the freezer for at least 2 hours before using. Once you burn them, the wax will melt at a much slower pace, making them last much longer! 

22. Two glasses of water: Cure Headache - Water is the cure to most common headaches. To make the headache go away quickly, drink two cups of water very quickly.

 24. Alka Seltzer: Remove Burnt-On Grease and Food Stains when letting your pots and pans soak. Throw in one or two Alka Seltzer tablets and the caked on residue from cooking will come off easily when you scrub/wash.

. Apple Cider Vinegar: Relieve Diarrhea - Mix two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar into eight ounces of water to soothe your stomach. The taste may not be the greatest, but the antibacterial properties of the vinegar will end the unpleasantness of the bowel problems.

26. Toothpaste: Remove Scratches from Glass - Apply toothpaste to scratch, than rub with a cloth until the scratch is gone. Make sure the glass is clean beforehand.

27. Cheerios: Relieve Pain from Poison Ivy, Chickenpox and Sunburns - Pound one to four cups of Cheerios into a powder and add to your bath to soothe your skin while you soak. You may not feel relief while in the tub, but you will soon after.

28. Buttons: Sort Earrings - Organize your earrings and prevent them from becoming entangled by using spare buttons as holders for each pair.

29. Corn Oil: Prevent Hairballs for Pets - Add a few drops of corn oil to your pets’ food to prevent hairballs from forming. The thick oil helps the fur pass through the animal’s system much quicker and easily.

30. Whipped Cream: Remove Gum from Hair - There are many remedies for removing gum from hair, but this is a lesser known one. Give it a try rather than peanut butter the next time you’re in need.

31. Coke: Remove Oil Stains from the Driveway - Oil stains are very difficult to remove pavement, but one method guaranteed to work is Coke. The highly acidic drink will eat away at the oil until clean.

32. Brown Sugar: Facial Scrub - A scrub is good to do about once a month to remove dead skin and bacteria built up in pores and remove excess oil from the skin. Brown sugar does just as well as expensive products and will definitely result in a clearer and smoother complexion.

33. Dryer Sheet: Lint Brush - You already know that dryer sheets remove lint in the dryer. Well, it can do the same thing out of the dryer, too. When you’re in a fix, use a dryer sheet. It works just as well as a lint brush, and if you like the scent, it’s an added bonus.

34. Newspaper: Deodorize food containers and Food Drawers in the Refrigerator - For that stinky Tupperware or smelly refrigerator drawer that is too much to deal with, toss in a sheet of newspaper overnight before you deal with it. The paper will absorb the smell greatly reducing it or eliminating it completely.

35. Olive Oil: Unstick a Zipper - The oil will help the zipper slide more easily, fixing the problem!

36. Salt: Cool Something Quickly - You u know that feeling when you’re having a BBQ and someone asks for a drink and you realize that no one has put them in the cooler? There’s nothing worse than a warm drink on a hot day. Chill a drink quickly, by adding salt and water to your ice. The drinks will be cold in a matter of minutes; saving your party and making you look smart all at once.

37. Scotch Tape: Prevent Wall from Chipping When Nailing - The wall can leave unsightly chips when hammering in a nail. Prevent this by simply placing a piece of scotch tape over the area you’re going to nail. The wall will be held tighter, preventing chips from occurring.

38. Alka Seltzer: Soothe Insect Bites - Dissolve two tablets into a glass of water. Then use a cloth or cotton ball to apply it to the affected area. The red will go down and most importantly, the itchiness will vanish usually in fifteen minutes.

39. Lemon: Whitens Whites - Add about half a cup of lemon juice to your load of whites to makes them extra white. You can use lemon juice with bleach or detergent, so don’t worry about mixing chemicals with the acidic lemon.

40. Banana Peel: Whiten Teeth - This may sound a little odd, but rub the inside of a banana peel on your teeth twice a day for two weeks and you will receive the same effect from a teeth-whitening kit. Plus, you’ll save yourself money and the hassle of using chemicals.

41. Hair Dryer: Free Photos Stuck on Pages - If you have a photo stuck on a page that you can’t get free, try using a blow dryer on the back of the page. It will loosen the photo from the page and the adhesive holding it there.

42. Banana Peel: Heal Most Skin Problems - Bananas are the magical fruit, because they heal many common problems on the skin. By rubbing the peel on your skin, you can heal bruises and cuts and eliminate rashes, itching and warts. Basically if you have a common skin problem, it can be cured by this fruit.

43. Apple Juice: Removes Dandruff. Don’t ask how it works, but it does! Instead of buying a special shampoo, just wash your hair in apple juice to rid your scalp of pesky dandruff.

I know you can put some or all of these to good use to save money and make your home a safer environment. There are tons more DIY uses for common household items like these.
