A simple cleanser is the first step in a summer skin routine, when sun, sweat and extra SPF products all end up on the face. This facial wash starts with unscented liquid castile soap to cleanse, adds vegetable glycerin and sweet almond oil to moisturize, and is scented with a blend of Lavender, Frankincense and Tea Tree essential oils: floral, resinous and fresh.
Ingredients
- 8 oz Amber Glass Bottle
- 3 oz of Unscented Liquid Castile Soap
- 1 oz of Vegetable Glycerin
- 1 oz of Sweet Almond Oil
- 3 oz of Distilled Water
- 1.5 mL of Lavender Essential Oil
- 1.5 mL of Frankincense Essential Oil
- 1.25 mL of Tea Tree Essential Oil
Instructions
Measure the liquid castile soap, vegetable glycerin, sweet almond oil and essential oils into a bowl and stir thoroughly to combine. Add the water a little at a time, stirring gently to avoid forming too many bubbles. Allow any bubbles to dissipate and pour the mixture into the bottle. Some settling may occur, so shake well before each use.
To Use
Pour a small amount into the hand or onto a soft washcloth. Gently rub all over the face, forming a lather, and cleanse for a full minute. Rinse thoroughly and follow with toner and moisturizer.
