Beauty Tips #7 – Facial Care
Let's go ahead and make our own skin care products!
at least we will know what they contain!
EYE LINER AND EYEBROW PENCIL
Buy a pure charcoal pencil (black only) at an art supply store.
Try several on yourself (bring a small mirror) in the store to see what hardness suits you.
You may need to wet it with water or vitamin E oil.
MASSAGE OIL
The benefits of a nice massage are endless. Instead of buying premixed massage oils, use coconut oil and add essential oils in whatever scent you like. Your skin will feel soft and moisturized.
MOISTURIZER
Coconut oil is a wonderful substitute for your body moisturizer. It penetrates your skin and has remarkable healing properties. Use it sparingly – a little goes a very long way.
MOUTHWASH
1. Baking Soda & Water
Make your own mouthwash by dissolving 1/4 tsp. (1ml) of baking soda and 1 cup of water. Put it in a bottle with a lid. This mouthwash can be used for 24 hours. After 24 hours, throw away any unused portion and make a fresh batch. Swish the mouthwash around in your mouth for 30 to 60 seconds, spit it out, and rinse your mouth with water. Baking soda mouthwash SHOULD NOT be swallowed. (It is not harmful if small amounts are accidentally swallowed)
2. Coconut Oil
This is how you do oil pulling: - Swish 1 tsp. of organic coconut oil around in your mouth for 10 – 15 minutes. Discard the oil into the dustbin and not down the drain because it will clog your drain when the coconut oil hardens as it cools. Do not swallow the coconut oil either as it contains the toxins extracted from your mouth. Now rinse your mouth with warm water. Repeat this procedure every day for whiter and healthier teeth and gums.
There are many websites as good references when it comes to natural homemade products. For good references and trustworthy info, my favourite ones are the two I have listed here.

I am offering a safe and natural alternative to conventional treatment, but these recipes, ideas and treatment should not be misconstrued or substituted for medical advice. Please always proceed with caution and test it first on a small area, or in small quantities, if you are uncertain. Should you suspect that you or your animal have a medical problem, I urge you to seek professional advice.

Another great natural tips!
thanks @roselifecoach I appreciate your feedback!
My pleasure @claudiaz!
Good first advices! :) Happy to read the natural care is spread. I also do natural cosmetics, I just wrote yesterday a post on how to make your own sunscreen at home, if u are interested in having a look at it. https://steemit.com/naturalremedy/@purplemoon/how-to-do-your-own-natural-sunscreen-at-home Do you also do sunscreen? I love to speak with people that share the same passion and exchange tips and improve ourselves.
I have been sent to your blog by @moderndayhippie telling me that you start a steem shop and I should also promote my magic creams through you to make the idea grow :) Super super good idea! Congratulations for the initiative! Let's keep in touch. Lots of love. xxx
Yes I love natural products, and I never buy sunscreen in the shops, I am careful in the sun and never spend hours in it. I will have a look at you blog and follow you. Do you know to use steemshop to make a post? If not please let me know and I can help you! Why dont you join us on Discord and we chat there: https://discord.gg/vm6X68g looking forward to seeing you there @purplemoon
i don't know yet how to use @steemshop to make a post, i read your introduction post with the instructions from there, the tag, the share and adding the pictograph :) Will write back when I need help.
i just came back after a 5months break of steemit and I have to get used to the crypto language again, like Discord for example :)) I will join you in a bit, after I take my time to get used to the online world again.
Thank you for inviting me! :D
sure no problem, just give me a shout when you are ready. If you make a post and use the steemshop tag everyone there will upvote and resteem you post for addtional exposure. That is really the reason to share you post in Discord. Anyway let me know if you need help :)
thanks for sharing! Is charcoal safe to put so close to your eyes? does it stay on long? being an artist, i have some thin sticks of charcoal, but never thought to use it as eyeliner.
as long as you only use the "BLACK charcoal pencils", they are safe. @corinneiskorean
