HOMEMADE that is..I am so excited, found this great post from a beauty consultant Liza Barnes about things that one can make for your skin.
I am trying them one at a time. If anyone else tries, post and let us all know.
Lavender body wash..Avon sells this also but I tried the homemade one Was OK
1/2 cup liquid unscented soap
1 tsp grape seed oil
4f drops lavender essential oil
pour ingredients into container, shake or swirl..can be stored up to a month
Moisturizer
1/2 cup coca butter
2 TBSP beeswax, finely or grated
2 tsp filtered water
2 TBSP coconut oil
3 TBSP grape seed oil
1 Tbsp wheat germ
combine water and beeswax (had some problems with this
) in saucepan and heat until melted. Add cocoa butter andstir until smooth. Coll somewhat and then add oils. Pout into glass container and allow to cool. Can keep in bathroom
Face wash
1 chamomile herbal tea bag
1-1/2 cups filtered water
2 tsb whole flax seeds
1/2 cup organic rolled oats, finely ground in blender
Fine mesh strainers
Bring water to boil.turn off heat and drop in tea bag. Allow to steep for 5 mins, remove bag and add flax seeds. Return to boil, lower heat simmer 15 mins..stir. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Poor cooled mixture through mess strainer into glass jar. TO USE, sprinkle small amount of rolled oats in the palm of hand and mix small amount of flax gel. Scrub face gently and rinse well. Store items in refrigerator.. They will keep for a few weeks.
This one was kind of complicated and a little on the time consuming. So far I can say I like it. Do not use all the time, since I really like the Avon wash that I use.
Enjoy.. and thanks Spark for the continuous ideas
