Who reading this is an oily fanatic??!
I purchased my Young Living starter kit over a year ago and I have LOVED getting to know how to use these powerful oils for a healthier lifestyle. I use essential oils for the home, cleaning, medicinal uses, boosting our immune systems, and personal hygiene.
I recently told myself once the bottle of face wash I was currently using was empty I wasn't going to buy another. I was going to figure out how to naturally and minimally wash my face.
Now I had already ditched the store bought moisturizers months ago. I have combination skin so depending on several factors my face can be broken out, dry, oily, and a pain in the tushy!
I googled diy face wash and decided to try cleaning with only COCONUT OIL! What??! Why would someone with oily skin tendacies put extra oil on her face....because it flippin works!
Here's the article I found and used as a guide .
I'm telling you it's so easy and I love it. Most days....okay 6 days out of the week...I do not wear make-up (Sunday is my special day), not even BB cream or tinted moisturizer...nothing. So for me it's not about taking off make up but I'm sure this would work if you do. Like the article suggests you can always follow up with an astringent or toner to get the extra little bits off your face.
You can even mix up a solution of coconut oil and essential oils to create a custom face wash for yourself. Tea tree oil from Young Living is a good one to consider. Just melt some coconut oil in the microwave in a microwave safe dish. Once melted add your essential oils and voila!
Here's how the above mentioned article suggests washing and what I do:
Melt about a teaspoon of coconut oil in the palm of your hands.
Rub all over face for about a minute
Wet a washcloth with hot water and place over entire face for 30 secs
Use washcloth to wipe off face.
Try the coconut oil method and let me know how it works for you. I'm saving a TON of money and knowing I'm not putting chemicals into my body is even better!
