all natural body moisturizer. makes a large batch so before adding essential oils you can seperate into smaller amounts then make for specific things,,,, like lavender and peace and calming for sleep,..... valor, peppermint and sage for that time of the month....panaway, valor and frank for sore muscle relief... lemon, orange,and lavender for an every day moisturizer:-)
i used the instructions from http://simplehomemade.net/homemade-foaming-facial-cleanser/. easy to follow
basic recipe
1/4 cup Dr. Bronner’s liquid castile soap (mine was eucalyptus , but any is fine)
1/4 cup water
2 tsp almond oil (jojoba oil would also work well)
2 tsp aloe vera gel
2 tsp glycerin
8-12 drops essential oils
i actually used olive oil instead of almond as it is what i have on hand.
mix all ingredients EXCEPT for the castile soap. either with a stick blender or in a regular blender. simply stir in the soap once the mix has emulsified. I used 8 drops of melrose, lemon, and frankincense. it has been lighting my skin and making it glow!
today was a very busy day... woke up. washed my face with an amazing wash(with frankincense and lemon) i will be blogging the how to later this week... had coffee with peppermint, took my morning capsule(lemon, grapefruit, and slique), hubby had headache rubbed him with peppermint, panaway, olive oil....in 5 mins he cut the grass, bbqed a pork loin, had a sore back, rubbed him with panaway neat, gave lo a bath with epsom salts and melrose, hubby was nauseous so rubbed his belly and chest with digize and peppermint in 10 mins he was eating dinner... rubbed peace and calming on vittoria, washed my face and used my coconut oil and frankincense moisturizer.... yes the Young Living essential oils can be used all day everyday! so glad i made the decision to go healthy!,,
