I love making my own skin products using essential oils. It’s so much fun to make, I know it’s all natural and toxin free and it smells divine. Win win.
If I read up on the oils I want to use for each product I can make sure the essential oils will work wonders for my skin, health and wellness too.
Today I’m sharing a wonderful DIY face serum with jojoba oil and essential oils. Perfect for grownup skin.
This is so easy to make and will make your face glow. I love this serum because it leaves my skin smooth and soft and not greasy.
I’ve used pure organic jojoba oil and frankincense, rose, lavender and carrot essential oils.
You can of course use whatever essential oils you prefer and what works best for your skin.
Here is why I chose these oils:
The carrot seed essential oil is natural sun screen. Because carrot seed oil is high in antioxidants, it’s a natural remedy for any anti-aging skin formula. … The oil also has moisturizing vitamin E and protective vitamin C, which work together to help bring new life to skin.
Rose essential oil is the most amazing oil for the skin. Rose Essential Oil is a powerful skin care oil due to its moisturizing and potent antioxidant properties. It is used in facial oils, moisturizers, serums, soaps and massage oils. Tones and tightens skin, useful for wrinkles and sagging skin. High in antioxidants that protect the skin from damage.
Frankincense essential oil is used to alleviate stress and relieve pain. When used as an ingredient in skin care products, frankincense essential oil is said to treat dry skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, age spots and scars.
lavender oil helps reduce redness, blotchy patches, and acne scarring. Lavender oil’s anti-inflammatory properties make it great for soothing and healing skin that’s irritated or reddened from the sun, insect bites, or bacteria.
Now onto the recipe for the face serum.
In a 15 ml pipette bottle add
5 drops rose essential oil
5 drops lavender
3 drops frankincense
3-5 drops carrot seed essential oil
Fill the rest of the bottle with jojoba oil.
Use the face serum every morning.
