What people forget is that harsh chemicals can still be absorbed
through the skin, and with that in mind we set about making a natural
moisturizer.
This simple homemade moisturizer uses just three ingredients!
Here’s the main ingredients and why we used them:
Coconut Oil
Anti Aging. Again very, very moisturizing but also contains anti
fungal, antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. Has similar effects
on the skin to an antioxidant.
Vitamin E Oil
Scar healing. Vitamin E is known to really good at reducing scar
tissue, acne and skin blemishes. It’s why it’s in popular scar and acne
‘over the counter’ treatments. Additionally, the oil helps hold this
solution together.
Lavender Oil
Relaxing. Lavender oil is a well known antioxidant, helping to rid skin
of free radicals. It’s a great overall muscle relaxer and it’s similar
to vanilla in this respect.
Ingredients
1/2 cup coconut oil (where on earth do I buy that?)
1 teaspoon liquid vitamin E (where to buy)
12 drops lavender essential oil (where to buy quality lavender)
Method:
Yes, you wanted simple! We warned you. Simply melt the coconut oil (by
placing the jar into a bowl of warm water) and mix in the Vit E and
Lavender, give it a mix up and let it set.
Whip with a fork if you want.
When the coconut solidifies, you’ll end up with a mixture that contains
the health benefits of all the ingredients in one, quick and simple
homemade moisturizer.
That’s it – Enjoy!
