Avocado, oil, and comb for hair treatment

Instant Beauty-Boosters

Ragone's favorite at-home hair reviver: Mash an avocado, add 3 tablespoons of olive oil, mix together and apply to hair. Leave on for 20 minutes. Wash, condition, rinse, and run your fingers through your smoother, shinier hair. For the face, she swears by this calorie-free daiquiri facial: "Puree overripe strawberries, add a dash of lemon juice and a teaspoon of sugar, then apply to face and leave on for two minutes. The sugar and strawberry seeds create a gentle exfoliator, and the lemon helps tighten pores. Rinse with lukewarm water and behold your baby-soft skin."
