This is one of my very favorite cleansers and is so easy to make. It’s soothing, moisturizing, antibacterial (so great for problem skin,) and smells wonderful.
- 1 fl oz aloe vera gel
- 2 fl oz olive oil
- 1 fl oz rose water*
- 4 drops rose essential oil
- 2 drops grapefruit seed extract
* You can easily make rose water by steeping 1 tbsp of dried rose petals in 1 cup of boiling water. Steep for 20 minutes and then strain.
Blend all the ingredients in a blender. Keep in fridge. Shake bottle before use. Apply to face and neck and use a muslin face cloth or a terry face cloth with warm water to cleanse. I prefer a muslin cloth in hot water as it helps to exfoliate as you rub in circular motions over your face.
Hello! I may be way over thinking this but, would I just use rose petals from outside or do I purchase them from any place in particular? I am really, really excited to make this on my own so any advice would be fantastic! Thank you!
Hello, where do you purchase the aloe vera gel? Please advise. Thank you
