Homemade Rose Water.

-
I love using natural products in my hair and also on my skin. Lately I've been doing some research on Rose Water and its benefits.
Photo credit: myself. Both white and red roses were used.

Here are some of the benefits of Rose water that I've came across:
- Maintains the skin PH balance.
- Hydrates, revitalizes and moisturize the skin
- Has anti- inflammatory properties
- Can be used as a facial toner and makeup remover


Since my face can become very oily face, I'm hoping this water can help.

Rose water can also be used in your hair, aids in moisturizing the scalp and hair follicles. Here I would test driving this on my hair, which is in transition into Locs (10 mnth and going strong), most times my hair becomes dry and needs a little moisture, water really don't do the trick unless I add some essential oil/s.

PREPARATION:
 I got my roses from my neighbors yard (permission was granted) and simply followed the instruction via Youtube.



N.B. When researching you may find it been done Two ways, which ever method is good for you, try it. For me the concentrated method works better.

Hiking: Mt. Qua- Qua

-
Image
Location: Grand E' tang National Park The hiking trail to Mt. Qua- Qua was not difficult but very challenging: due to its narrow ridges and rocky terrain. Scott stated in his post via Summitpost.org that: ' ' Mount Qua Qua is the second or third highest peak on the island of Grenada ... . It is also the most popular mountain to climb on the island. "( http://www.summitpost.org/mount-qua-qua/970228 ) The hike can be rigorous for those who are both fit and unfit, the beautiful scenery at the top of the hike will be worth the walk and aching legs. I truly enjoyed the lush green vegetation leading up to the lookout point, the peaks with mist (if it's rainy/ overcast) ,and over-looking surrounding communities in the valley. On your way up the trail, one can over look Grand E'tang Lake below (the view is to die for). Supposedly, there are 2 trails (or shortcuts) one can take to go either Annadale waterfall or Concord waterfall, that's if you're co...

Sea Adventure: Sandy Island Pt. 2

Where do I even start. My 2nd trip to Sandy Island was by far amazing than the first, enjoy reading my experience, I do hope you can experience this as well. Read about my 1st trip here : http://coconut3z.blogspot.com/2016/10/sandy-island-pt-1.html As usual, I woke at 7 am preparing myself for the trip, arriving on the jetty in Sauteurs at 9 am sharp. Food items were bought, including drinks and other essentials for our trip. On my 1st trip, we had used a small speed boat ( a small fishing boat with a powerful engine- West Indian term ), but on this trip ( Talk about upgrade) we went  with a slightly bigger fishing boat (Pleasure boat). This was good because the sea was sort of choppy that morning. To by pass the feeling of being sea sick, we gave jokes (silly stuff) on our way up. Finally touch down on Sandy Island, we cleared all items off both boats; then food preparation started. Some of the guys decided to go spear fishing/ free diving just off from the island; for ...

Petroglyph site: Duquesne Bay

-
Image
Petroglyphs are rocks made by pecking directly on the rock surface using a stone chisel and a hammer stone. Many of these sites are at times visible/ hidden on this beautiful island.  Why not rent a jeep, grab a map, tag along a local tour guide and discover the mystery of Grenada. (Insert Palm trees)
