DIY Face & Body Cream 2019


Hi and welcome to WiKi MAKEUP
Today's recipe is a bit of an unusual one,one that I wouldn't necessarily recommend eating straight from the jar: DIY face and body cream!
Now you might be asking yourself:
what the hell?
Why is there a recipe for a cosmetic product on a cookery channel?

Well, if the word recipe is in there, the vegan corner is interested.

we are here with the first of our cosmetic recipes.

List of ingredients
Ingredients -

- ⅓ cup raw honey
- ⅓ cup melted coconut oil
- 15-20 drops essential oil:
- ¾ cup Castile soap.
I recommend Dr. Bronner's:
To begin with, place the aloe gel into a bowl followed by half of the oil.

And yes, you heard right:

we are actually going to use oils in this recipe and there is nothing you can do about it. At this point start mixing vigorously and keep doing so until the ingredients form an emulsion. Keep stirring the gel until it perfectly combines with the oil into a smooth and super white cream. Here we are using sesame and almond oil, for their nourishing and moisturizing properties. However, feel free to use any other oil you desire, your choices range from cooking oils like grapeseed oil to something a bit more exotic such as argan oil.

Every oil has its own properties.
You can now add in the rest of the oil and stir once again to incorporate it.
At this point, the only thing that remains to be done is to add the essential oils into the bowl and mix them in to complete the cream.

Preparation -

I'm taking ⅓ cup of raw honey and mixing it in a measuring cup with ⅓ cup of melted coconut oil and 15-20 drops of essential oil, depending on how strong you want it to smell. I'm using sweet orange oil because i Love citrusy smells and it pairs really well with honey and coconut. I recommend Rose or Lavender for a more luxurious smell. For the Honey make sure that the label says "raw," "unpasteurized," or "unfiltered". Raw honey will gently remove dirt and impurities without stripping the skin of natural oils. 

The coconut oil acts as Skin softener and has moisturizing effects that will help heal dry skin. Be sure to use extra virgin, organic oil. Make sure that the label doesn't say "hydrogenated, refined, or bleached" in any way. Next I'm slowly adding in ¾ cup of castile soap. I recommend the Dr. Bronner's Unscented Baby-Mild Castile Liquid Soap because it contains no fragrance and is and has olive oil. Castile soap will give this body wash that sudsi-ness. It's a natural soap that's made with vegetable oils. Now gently stir everything with a spoon and be careful not to whip too much air into it. 

Finally I'm just going to pour the mixture into my glass soap dispenser and it's ready for my next wash. Give this Natural Body Wash a try and let me know what fragrance you'd choose. I'll see you on the next Natural Beauty.

It is important to mention that as this cream

is free from all preservatives and chemicals,

it does lack of a long shelf life.

This means that it is best to make it and consume it within 3 weeks.

 Bye!....
