facial cleanser

so, i made this homemade facial cleanser about two months ago… i wanted to try it out before i posted it.

i am really happy with it. it isn’t soap, really, so it doesn’t lather. i find that really weird even though i KNOW it doesn’t matter. i just give my face a scrub, then massage some of this on, then rinse. i find it works really well, and i’m starting to get used to the no-lather situation!

ingredients:

1/4 c water
1 T vegetable glycerin
1 T aloe
1 t emulsifier
essential oils (drops):
2 lavender
2 bitter orange
1 lemongrass
2 tea tree
1 geranium
1 ylang ylang

to make:

pour water, glycerin, aloe into container, shake until well combined.

in separate bowl, mix emulsifier, essential oils.

add oils to bottle, shake well.
