Quick Fix Preservative Free Home Made Moisturizers
Moisturizers are basically a combination of water and oil. The water to
hydrate the skin and the oil to keep the water from evaporating.
Creams and lotions contain emulsifiers to keep the water and oil from
separating, as oil does not dissolve in water, nor water in oil.
Commercial preparations contain preservatives to prevent bacteria from
multiplying in a rich oil and water mixture and additional ingredients to
stabilize the preparation as well as to give it a good feel and fragrance.
If you are allergic to preservatives, fragrances and other additives, you can
make your own moisturizers in the bathroom just before using them. All you need
to do is to keep a small bottle of distilled water and a small bottle of cold
pressed sweet almond oil in the bathroom.
Remember to wash your hands with soap and water before you start.
Home Made Moisturizer for oily skin
Your skin really doesn't need much moisturizing. If you really must, just
pour some distilled water into the palm of your hand. Add 1 drop of sweet almond
oil and rub both hands together to mix them well. Apply on your face and neck as
a moisturizer.
These days, I prefer store bought moisturizers instead as these are so
convenient and can keep.
These are excellent for oily skin.
