Home Beauty Treatments You Can Make Yourself

September 15, 2016 2:28 pm

Nothing feels better than getting a facial or a fresh blowout, but unfortunately, these types of beauty treatments can be pretty pricey. Luckily, you can mimic their results in your own home at Provence at Valencia, often by using common items that you already have. Here are a few rejuvenating beauty treatments that you can make yourself.

  1. Create a nourishing hair mask that restores each strand by combining common foods from the refrigerator. Simply mix together one egg yolk, one tablespoon of mayonnaise, 1/4 of an avocado, and two tablespoons of olive oil, and then let the mask sit on your hair for one hour before rinsing.
  2. Give yourself an at-home sugar scrub that sloughs off dead skin and leaves your body feeling smooth and rejuvenated. Combine equal parts coconut oil and brown sugar with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, then rub it all over the next time you’re in the shower.
  3. Do a DIY facial using a mashed banana mixed with two tablespoons of heavy cream, one tablespoon of honey, one tablespoon of flour, and one tablespoon of water. Let the mask sit on your face for 10 minutes before rinsing. The banana reduces redness and adds smoothness, while the heavy cream is very soothing and leaves a soft, supple feeling behind.

Fish Tail Grill: A Taste of The Aloha State in Santa Clarita

September 9, 2016 3:06 pm

Santa Clarita has no shortage of Asian fusion eateries, so what makes the Fish Tail Grill
so beloved among locals? Perhaps it’s this restaurant's focus on house-made sauces, its innovative craft-beer-infused tempura, or the soups prepared from scratch each day. Perhaps it’s the casual, friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices. More likely, though, it's that there’s something special about Hawaiian cuisine!

The Fish Tail Grill in Santa Clarita doesn’t exclusively serve Hawaiian food, but the 50th state’s influence is pronounced, from the many plate lunches to the Hawaiian ahi poke bowls. For the uninitiated, the plate lunch is a quintessential Hawaiian meal traditionally consisting of an entree (often Japanese fried katsu or Hawaiian lau lau), a side of white rice, and an additional side (often macaroni salad). Lunch plates reflect the intermixing and combination of cultures in Hawaii, including those brought to the island by immigrants from the east and west.
