Homemade Facial Cleanser

Homemade Facial Cleanser is a great addition to your beauty routine if you want your skin to look at feel its best.

Homemade Facial Cleanser

Natural skin care means you know exactly what is going on your skin. Making your own products allows you to really personalize them according to your skin type and any skin problems you may have. Better still, most of the ingredients you need are right in your pantry using these recipes for facial cleansers.

Oil Based Cleansers:

Natural Skin Care CleanserMany recipes for homemade facial cleansers include oil. Why? The oil in the cleansing compound keeps your skin from drying out. Hydration and conditioning is very important to healthy, young looking skin. The best oils to use for skin care include:
walnut oil
extra virgin olive oil
coconut oil
almond oil
avocado oil
jojoba oil

You can use the oil straight, with no added ingredients. Take about a teaspoon of oil and massage it all over your face and neck. You can tissue it off, or wipe off with a moist washcloth. For an extra moisturizing treatment, apply prior to your shower or bath and remover at the end. The steam will open up your pores and allow the oil to deep clean your pores and moisturize your skin. You can also use the oil to remove makeup, even waterproof eye makeup.

Moisturizing Cleanser

Here is a very simple homemade moisturizing cleanser

1 Cup coconut milk
1 Tbs. honey
1 Avocado
Peel and mash a ripe avocado then mix this with the honey and coconut milk until you have a good consistency for application. Gently rub this on your skin and leave it for about 10 minutes. Rinse with warm water.

Oily Skin Cleansing Mask

The flour in this recipe absorbs the oil in your skin, carrot nourishes with vitamin A and the honey conditions.

1 cooked mashed carrot
2 Tsp. corn flour
1 egg white
1 Tbs. honey
Lemon Juice Homemade Facial Cleanser Mix everything together and apply it evenly all over your face. Leave the mask on for 15 minutes. When you wash it off you can use a soft cloth and scrub gently in circles to get rid of any bits of dirt lodged in your pores. Rinse with warm water.

Combination Skin Cleanser

1 cup cooked oatmeal
1 tsp. almond oil
½ tsp. lemon juice
1 egg white
1 tsp. vitamin E oil
Mix everything together and smooth onto your skin. Leave this for 20 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with warm water. This will also help tone your face.

Other Hints:

If you have spotty skin mix plain yogurt and lemon juice and apply to the spots to help bleach them. If you want a really fast exfoliating scrub mix salt and your preferred oil and rub gently on the areas that are most oily. Mashed banana is a great nourishing application, and milk baths keep your skin soft.

These recipes are just a few examples of homemade facial cleansers that are really inexpensive and really wonderful for your skin. You don’t need to go to the beautician to get a healthy, warm glow anymore – and it doesn’t take a lot of time.
