DIY Face Serum
Face serums have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their ability to deliver concentrated doses of active ingredients to the skin. And this all-natural and customisable trending beauty product can be made at home!
Serums can help hydrate, brighten, and smooth the skin, while also reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Making your own face serum at home is not only cost-effective but also allows you to customize the ingredients to suit your specific skin concerns. Here is a simple recipe for a DIY face serum:
- 1 oz. of carrier oil (such as jojoba, rosehip, or argan oil)
- 3-4 drops of essential oil (such as lavender, frankincense, or tea tree oil)
- A small glass dropper bottle
- Begin by choosing a carrier oil that works for your skin type. For example, jojoba oil is great for all skin types, while rosehip oil is ideal for dry or mature skin.
- Add 3-4 drops of your chosen essential oil to the carrier oil. Essential oils have a variety of benefits for the skin, so choose one that addresses your specific concerns. For example, lavender oil is soothing and calming, while frankincense oil can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Pour the mixture into a small glass dropper bottle. This will make it easy to apply the serum to your skin.
- Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- To use the serum, simply apply a few drops to your face and neck after cleansing and toning. Gently massage the serum into your skin using upward and outward motions. Allow the serum to absorb fully before applying moisturizer or sunscreen.
Overall, making your own DIY face serum is a great way to incorporate natural and nourishing ingredients into your skincare routine. Why not give it a try and see the benefits for yourself!
