You come back from an evening with friends(is)… and then horror ! More Cleansing ! Pas question de dormir toute maquillé… le look raton laveur c’est pas votre truc. Pas de panique voici une recette toute simple qui se fait en un tour de main. En plus c’est exactement la même recette pour hydrater sa peau !

1 Aloe gel nuts
1 walnuts vegetable oil
depending on your skin type

Difficulty : star greystar3 greystar3greystar3 ––Conservation : not —–

Mélanger le tout au creux de votre main et appliquer sur le visage. Enlever à l’aide d’un coton démaquillant. Ce gel démaquillant peux aussi servir à démaquiller les yeux et comme soin hydratant en remplacement d’une crème de jour.
Before applying it on your face take a test on the elbow, certaines peaux sensibles ne tolère pas le gel d’aloès. Si c’est le cas remplacer celui ci par votre crème habituelle.

This is proof we do not need to be complicated to answer a simple problem.

If you are looking for other easy recipes like this I recommend the book Create your cosmetics, de Sylvie Hampikian, take a walk in the Library section for more information.

The cleansing bar reo-rganized

6 October 2009 by  
Filed under Cleansers

Here is a recipe Reo I present to you because it is just fantastic. A cleansing bar in ! Yes yes it is possible and practical travel vraimentt ! As Lush in fact, but I confess to prefer ample Reo recipe which is much smoother. So here it is… some reo-rganized for my needs.

18 g cocoa butter
8 g beurre de karité
10 g emulsifying wax
10 g beurre de mangue (or other)
4 g hv macadamia
10 gouttes he palmarosa
10 ET drops lavender
3 drops of vitamin E

Difficulty : star star greystar3greystar3 ––Conservation : 1 month —–Capacity : 50 g

It melts the wax, butters and oil together with the drops of vitamin E. When everything is melted let sit a few. When the mixture is lukewarm add your essential oils and then poured into a silicone mold.
When cleansing I wet a washcloth and I rub it on my bar, I then simply removes makeup. Cela m’évite en même temps d’utiliser des tampons démaquillant qui ne font que polluer 😉

* Note… if you want to use this bar for the eyes… enlevez les huiles essentielles. Vous désirez quand même le parfumer ? Les extraits aromatiques feront largement l’affaire !

Here's an easy to make at home mask made with just a few ingredients. The grapes have anti-aging active, include anti oxidants and fruit acids. While here on a small scale but it remains an interesting treatment that will restore some luster to your skin for fall !

5 grapes medium (exfoliant, moisturizer, antioxidant)
1 cc of violets argile (shine)
1 cc honey (humectant)
2 drops of essential oil for your skin

Difficulty : star greystar3 greystar3greystar3 ––Conservation : not —–Capacity : 20 to 25 ml

Mix the grapes with their skin to a consistency of a little liquid puree. Add your clay, your honey and your essential oil. If the dough is too compact add a little pure water, milk or hydrosol. Apply to your entire face, without forgetting the neck and leave on 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the mask with a washcloth gently massaging your face.

ps : Opt for organic grapes for not a trace of pesticides and chemical fertilizers.

Cleansing and toning mask while a !

I love bread cleanser from Lush. I had made a version with lavender while ago. Then with the return of the fall I wanted a purifying and toning to give a little pep to my skin in the morning. But not only, I wanted a practical product, hence its usefulness in cleansing or mask. Here is my recipe.

3 cs almond powder (gentle exfoliator)
2 cm vegetable glycerine (mild moisturizer)
2 cs clay depending on your skin type (purifying and toning)*
1/2 cc of cranberry powder or green tea (antioxidant)
1 cs hydrosol cistus (regenerating)
10 ET drops petitgrain (revitalizing)
7 ET drops rosewood (bracing)
1/2 cc bamboo fiber (exfoliant)
0.6% Ecogard (conservative)

nettmasque petitgrain bambou

Difficulty : star greystar3 greystar3greystar3 ––Conservation : 3 weeks —–Capacity : 90 ml

Mix the ground almonds, clay and powdered cranberries. To this mixture add glycerine and hydrosol. When the whole forms a nice firm dough add your essential oils, Your Conservative and bamboo fiber while kneading the dough well with a spoon. To use it you just take a little nutty and mixing in water, apply on your face and massage gently.

You can use this cleaner for a mask once a week. Take a small knob in your hand, mixed with a little water. Apply the paste on face and let stand about 10 minutes and rinse.

This mask is perfect for all skin types, as mature qu'acnéique ! Keep your bun in a cool well sterilized jar and sealed.

* Here I put purple and green clay… d’où la couleur un peu étrange 😀

The raw materials are almost all in Aromazone and conservative in Bilby & Co.

Hello… I'm back !! The holidays were really nice. I will speak very soon… new recipes will be coming and a few discoveries to share with you. Course with the arrival of the new blog !

For now I suggest a very mild and pleasant mask after a short sunbath… or simply to give fishing with wet weather. The ingredients are easy to find and it does not matter where you find !

1 tablespoons plain yogurt
1 honey cc
1 cc of flour (for texture)
or clay
1/4 a fishing crushed

peche yogourt miel04

Mix together all ingredients. Apply on face and kick avoiding eyes. Let stand about ten minutes and then rinse with cold water. Cut a new slice of peach and gently exfoliate your skin with the inside of the fruit… it's very sweet ! Rinse again and moisturize your skin with your usual cream. A true delight… the hard part is to not eat the mask. 😀

Do not keep this mask, is made for single use.

Therefore when looking for a self tanner that provides care as we never find anything to adjust? It is always either too fat, too sticky, it turns orange, we put off the scent, etc.. La solution ? Prepare oneself his care and 'add a touch self tanning. Here I made a recipe with tensor effect, for tighter pores, less blackheads, fewer buttons and a good healing. Also this recipe is a cold, which keeps all the benefits of raw materials. Je ne vous cache pas que c’est aussi plus facile 😉 . Here is the recipe !

8 g hv melon or hazel (oils regulatory)
4 g macerate vanilla (for odor)
10 g ester sucre (emulsifier)
12 ml macerate hydroglycerine tepezcohuite (astringent)
15 ml hydrolat tea tree (Purifying)
5 ml of water
or 20 ml of water (instead of 15 ml d'hydrolat et 5 ml water)
1.5 g DHA (Car Tanning)
10 goutes he ciste (tensor)
8 gouttes he géranium (anti-infective)
1 drops of rosemary extract CO2 (antimicrobial)*
2 vitamin E drops
6 drops ECOGARD

Difficulty : star star greystar3 greystar3—– Conservation : 2 month —–Capacity : 50 ml

Mix your oils with sugar ester. When the mixture is well blended add water, l'hydrolat (room temperature) and extract tepezcohuite. Whisk well until the mixture is creamy. Add the rest of your ingredients , pour into a sterile container and properly sealed.

I find the smell here is quite nice, a green note due to the essential oil of Cistus and slightly sweet.

The dosage of essential oils in this recipe are less than 2 % giving you the opportunity to use it on the face and the body !

To learn how the macerate hydroglycerine tepezcohuite I invite you to read the data in Aromazone in here. It's really very easy to do !

*This ingredient is optional, here I added to strengthen the conservation cream. But you can pretty much only use vitamin E as a preservative and Ecogard… or another type of Conservative.
