Summer 2014 - B3

I didn't search for it really. Even if natural beauty production is a G R A N D interest. This one though, just manifested itself in front of me, as a bi manifestation from a decision of growing more barley grass. Remedies & recipes, both internal & external, were flooding my way. A NEW BEAUTY WORLD! The World of Beauty by Barley! From ancient Greek, to modern Asia and India; humans before us have all used barley as a beauty product and internal cleanser throughout history. And still do. Early summer 2014 I entered this world too! Changing beauty life! All my skin care is now purely barley based for the summer. BBB: Beauty Bliss by Barley.

Yin and Cool

Barley has a cooling effect of the body according the theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In addition to view food in just vitamins, minerals, proteins etc., TCM add energy properties. Energy and the movement in the body. The effect the food has on the body, not the food itself. The five energies are cold, hot, warm, cool and neutral. Barley is defined as Ying and cool. Even if drinking hot barley water (tea), the effect on the body system is coolness. The facial water is nice to spray on the face during hot days. It is so simple, easy and time efficient to make.

I'm now 'cooking' four products in my basic 'body and face' care this summer. I have used them all daily for nearly a week. 1) Barley Facial Scrub 2) Barley Facial Wash 3) Barley Facial Water and 4) Barley Facial Mask 5) Barley Body Scrub. That's five! It's so magic I can't keep track of all the barley remedies I'm cooking! Me and Barley are ONE I guess, as eating, drinking barley (grass juice and barley water) and barley all over the body. All products are made of whole grain barley. Nothing else. Barley grains = A glowing, clean and silky skin! The blood circulation gets activated when using the barley mask and one feels how productive barley is to work with the skin. I like Barley.

Super Enjoy Your Barley Beauty BLISS! I will post all beauty by barley recipes, one by one.

how to make barley facial water

clean the grains

Clean the grains properly. I put the grains in a bowl with cold water and stir. Rinse and repeat.

boil barley & water

Bring to boil and then simmer for 20 mins. Keep a lid on.

color shade after boiling

Gold-ish in colour. Smells good. Taste good too.

fill all the spray bottles you've got!

I use these small ones (got them in my favorite chinese store in Barcelona). I filled them w/rose-water I got from the Pakistan store; rose-water facial. Perfect during hot hiking days. I've got bottles everywhere, in all bags! Keeping the ones I don't use in the fridge.

spray! spray! spray!
