Day #59 – DIY Face Cleanser & Body Oil

I woke up without a headache today. Thank you generic Tylenol PM. I decided to get a little crafty. I am almost out of my Mad Hippie Cleansing Oil, so I decided to make my own. I had seen a recipe that called for castor oil and olive oil. I personally don’t like using olive oil on my skin. I had some liquid coconut oil so I decided to use that instead.

It’s just 1/4 cup castor oil

1/4 cup coconut oil

Then I added 6 drops each of Lavender, Frankincense and geranium

To use it put about 1/2 in your hand and rub it into you face. Wet a wash rag with the hottest water you can stand and drape the wash rag over you face for a minute. Just wipe your face off when you’re done. I used it today and it made my skin so soft.

I love body oil, especially right after I get out of the shower. For this one I used grapeseed oil. I added frankincense, rosemary, geranium and lavender.

I just put it in a pump bottle I already had and I’ll keep it in the bathroom. The longer they sit, the stronger the essential oil scent will become. They both smell really good.
