Let me rephrase that:
A baby's bottom is on my face.
Let me try again:
The skin of a baby's bottom is on my face.
And once again:
The skin of my face is like that of a baby's bottom.
Lastly:
My skin is as soft and supple as a baby's bottom.
Phew. That took me a few tries to get right, but have no fear! My writing skills never cease to amaze me! And you, I am sure.
Today is another of my make-at-home favorites. After dabbling with a few different recipes, I have landed on my favorite skin cream recipe. So, I decided to share it with you! So that Georgia's bottom can be on your face as well. Dangit, there I go again.
Homemade Face Cream
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons shea butter
- 2-3 drops tea tree oil
And there ya have it.
Mix the coconut oil:
With the shea butter:
With the tea tre oil:
Miraculously, each morning, I wake up with uber-soft skin. The more I use it, the better it gets! I only use it once a day, usually at night, and then just splash my face with water in the morning. It seems to still last on there after that.
In the last year, I've gone from using crazy expensive and toxic facial cleaners (that I had to special order!) - to washing my face with natural, organic Castile Soap - to then also using homemade facial cream! Can't beat the price (I didn't do the math, but it can't be more than .75 cents per batch) and the ingredients are easy, cheap, and all natural. That's a win, win, win (just in case you're keeping track).
The best price on coconut oil is available HERE, at Mountain Rose Herbs.
I also get my shea butter from them HERE, which is very inexpensive.
Tea Tree Oil is available at any health food store, but you can also find it HERE.
Please try it. I beg you. I plead with you.
Let me know what you think.
And don't be surprised if I enthusiastically start rubbing your face when we run into each other. I can't help it - I do the same thing to Georgia's lil toosh when she gets out of the tub at night.
I need help.
Have a wonderful weekend, my friends!
