Beautiful skin with natural products

These ingredients are especially good

Before using any cosmetic products, it is of course important to cleanse your skin regularly, even with natural cosmetics. This is best done with a PH-neutral cleansing milk.

Cleansing milk

This cleansing milk can contain various herbs, which have a soothing and invigorating effect on the skin.

Very suitable for that are:

Chamomile
Mistletoe
Yarrow

Rather dry skin

This can also be remedied. These will help you relieve dryness:

Aloe
Benzoin
Burdock
Calendula

Whether you use an ointment made from these herbs or take them in tablet or tea form, they help in every way.

Natural face mask

What always works, though, are face masks with active ingredients like:

Chamomile
Hops
Lemon balm

Mint, menthol or camphor oil will also help you in all the places you want to treat. These moisturizing essences work on the whole skin and not only on the face.

However, your skin can also be supported from the inside. Foods such as spelt, carrots or sunflower oil provide you with additional vitamin E and thus strengthen your skin. Minerals and fluids as well as a healthy diet are also important to keep your skin as naturally pure as possible.

Which devices do I need?

Every household has the equipment required for cosmetics production. This includes:

Pots
Measuring jugs
Stove
Scales
Spoons

Different funnels and sieves of various sizes are used to sieve ingredients and fill bottles and jars cleanly.

What ingredients do I need for homemade natural cosmetics?

You can find the ingredients you need in your own garden, in grocery stores and health food shops:

There you can find sunflower, olive and rapeseed oil, for example, as well as wholemeal flour, herbs, fruit, spices and dried plants such as lavender or rose petals.

However, buy all ingredients in organic quality.

You can get the beeswax you often need from a beekeeper and of course there are also plenty of suppliers on the internet.

What do I need to bear in mind during preparation?

The workplace and equipment must always be clean, hygiene is an absolute must. Before using equipment and packaging, disinfect them with alcohol. You can use high-proof vodka, for example. This does not have a strong odor.

This is used to rinse out jars and spray bottles and spray funnels and other equipment.

Also wash your hands thoroughly before preparation! Never touch bottles and cans on the inside!
