Homemade Skincare Remedies

Your skin is the largest organ on your entire body so it’s no wonder that people want to make sure that it’s well taken care of. However, skincare products can be very expensive and some of them use harmful chemicals that clog your pores and cause allergic reactions. This is why many people look long and hard at homemade skincare remedies. Not only are they relatively inexpensive, but they use natural ingredients that can be found around the home.

In this article we’re going to have a look at three different homemade skincare remedies that you can try from the comfort of your own home. These three were chosen because they are easy to make and cost next to nothing.

The Easy Facial

This easy facial is used to make skin smoother and it may also help with acne. Simply mix together one tablespoon of honey, one beaten egg yolk and one teaspoon of olive oil. Make sure that you use a clean spoon when mixing the ingredients.
Next, smear the mixed ingredients all over your face using your fingertips. Do not put it on your eyes or eyelids. Once you’ve applied the facial, leave it on for fifteen minutes before rinsing it off.

The Apple Scrub

The Malic acid found in apples can help get rid of dead skin and help the body rejuvenate new skin. Green tea olive oil or plain olive oil can help provide your skin with some UV protection and remove harmful toxins while at the same time locking in your skins natural moisture.

To make the apple scrub, you will need one cup of apple sauce, a tablespoon of green tea olive oil or olive oil and a teaspoon of sugar. Mix the ingredients together in a bowl and apply it to dry areas of the skin. Leave the mixture on for ten minutes and rinse off.

Moisturizing Bath

As far as homemade skincare remedies go, this one is a winner. This moisturizing bath will leave your skin feeling smoother and you’ll feel more relaxed.

You will need one quart of moisturizing shampoo (the good stuff if you can afford it), four tablespoons of glycerine, eight tablespoons of safflower oil and one tablespoon of coconut oil. Mix the ingredients together in an empty shampoo container and add two tablespoons to the warm running water of your bath.

Now get in and relax!
