How to Make Herbal Beauty Products

If you have sensitive skin, or are trying to avoid the chemicals that are often found in commercial beauty products, you should consider making your own herbal beauty products at home. Do not worry; the process of making your herbal beauty products is easier than you may think.

Moisturizer

1. Purchase plain vanilla yogurt from your local grocery store in a high fat content variety if you have dry skin or in a fat-free variety if you have oily skin.


2. Open the container of yogurt and stir it with a standard teaspoon.


3. Apply a small amount of yogurt onto your fingers, and rub it into your face in a circular motion until the surface of your face is coated with a thin layer of yogurt.


4. Allow the yogurt to sit on your face for five minutes.


5. Rinse away the yogurt with warm water, ensuring that you have thoroughly removed all of the yogurt from your face.


6. Pat your face dry with a clean dry towel. 

Bath Salts

1. Measure out one cup of Epson salt into a small mixing bowl.


2. Add one teaspoon of your favorite essential oil to the Epson salt.


3. Mix in one teaspoon of your favorite moisturizing oil such as almond or coconut oil depending on your preference.


4. Mix all ingredients together until the salt has been thoroughly coated with the oils.


5. Place the bath salt into an airtight container until you are ready to use it.

Exfoliant

1. Purchase an all-natural, fragrance- and chemical-free body wash.


2. Pour the body wash that you have purchased into a small bowl.


3. Add three tablespoons of table salt or ground coffee into your body wash and mix thoroughly to form an all-natural exfoliant that will effectively remove the dead skin from the surface. 


4. Pour the exfoliant into an airtight container or bottle until you are ready to use it.
