Reena’s Beauty Tips of the Week:

Shiny hair is possible with a bit of coconut oil. Rub oil onto your scalp once a week. Wash hair in the morning.

For smooth skin, use a version of the secret recipe that Cleopatra used: Into your bath water, drop two cups of powdered milk.

All solutions are to be used at the risk of the user.
