Homemade skin care recipes
I hope that some can help me. I am trying to find recipes for
skin care products that use herbs or ingredients. I have oily skin
on my face so that is where most of my interest lies
-Try your public library. Rodale used to publish a natural skin care book
that was very good, don't know if it is still in print. Also, your
natural foods store might have information on making homemade products.
One thing to remember, for the most part these products are refined (by
you) and will need to be refrigerated and even then will spoil after a
period of time. So, like anything else coming from natures bounty, make
up only small portions, and don't keep anything past it's prime.
-I recently obtained a book titled, "Blended Beauty", Botanical Secrets for
Body and Soul; by Philip B., with Lucy Fraser and Wendy Ryerson; published
by 10 Speed Press, Berkeley, CA.
There are recipes for skin care, hair care, sunburn remedies, etc., all
using natural ingredients (fruits, veggies) and extracts.
If you would like to email me with any specific recipe you are looking
for, i.e., herbal face wash, etc., I'd be glad to see if there is anything
in the book and pass it along.
