Hi all! My name is Brani Laine and I blog over at “That’s JustLovely”. I have been a faithful visitor to “Something Brought You Here” for
some time now, and I am so thrilled and thankful that these beautiful ladies
are allowing me to take up some space here. I mostly blog about beauty &
fashion, but occasionally, I like to share my funny life stories with my
readers. First, here are a couple of pictures of me, so you can put a face
behind these words:
Now, back to the
important stuff. My faithful visitors enjoy these sorts of posts: “What I
Wore”, reviews on beauty products (I have so many products, I could do one
review on a product I own for a year and be okay), tutorials on beauty-related
things, ramblings about life, love, and the pursuit of
happiness, and links to other amazing blogs I “discover”. Also, I’d like to
think I’m a little bit funny and extremely blunt. I believe that’s why my
followers like me, and I love them for that. So, I’d really love it if you
decided to hop on over to my space on the blogosphere and see for yourself.
Perhaps you’ll like what I write about, too? Here’s an example:
Brani’s DIY
Exfoliating Body Scrub
(There are so many similar to this one out there, but I
swear I’ve been using this scrub since I was in middle school.)
What you will
need:
Olive oil
Honey
Sugar (regular ol' sugar)
Small tupperware container (enough to hold a can of soup)
Why is that it? Because this is the easiest and most
affordable DIY scrub you will ever use, most likely.
What you will do:
Take the tupperware container, make sure it is ALL
cleaned out and dried. Pour in 7-8 tablespoons of sugar. Pour in (judge this on
your own, please; it will vary per person & you might need more or less)
6-7 tablespoons of olive oil. Then add a teaspoon of honey. Mix together well.
It should look similar to this (which is the batch I just made):
Now for the best part--get in the bath tub (or shower...but I prefer a relaxing bath) and
take the scrub (with your hands) and rub it ALL over your legs, arms, and whole
body. Keep out of private areas! Yes, it will be oily and you will think
"Is it supposed to feel this yucky?" The answer is yes. Once you let
it sit for 10 minutes, rinse it all off, and when you're out of the bath or
shower, dry off! Use the towel to rub off as much as you possibly can. You will
still feel a bit oily, so don't sit on any furniture or anything you wouldn't
want to possibly get a spot on. Sitting on your towel would be the best choice.
After the oily feeling starts to go away, your legs and body will still feel
soft (maybe you will have a man touching those legs of yours later? He will
love the softness!), but the best part of all is that you exfoliated like a
pro! WARNING: PLEASE, PLEASE BE CAREFUL
getting out of the shower/tub after using this exfoliating scrub because it is
oily and can be very slippery! Also,
warn anyone that will be showering/bathing after you. Clean out the tub as
best you can! One time my boyfriend almost slipped after I did this DIY scrub.
Lesson learned. Enjoy, and please do not hesitate to let me know how it worked
for you!
Once again, thank you to Whitney & Nicole for letting
me guest post! You are wonderful, ladies. J
