Have you ever tried to make your own skincare products at home? I have and we do! I love creating my own beauty and skincare products because then I KNOW what is in them! I know what I am putting on my skin!
I also like making my own skincare and beauty products because skincare is so expensive nowadays! I find myself always buying the skincare dupes!
Lately, I have been on a natural kick. I have been searching out natural products to use on my family and I have been using Essential Oils

Make Your Own Skincare Products At Home!
Whole Foods Market recently sent me some great products to use at home, to make my very own Skin Care Products At Home! I and my daughter had FUN in the kitchen!! Gosh, I love doing this kind of stuff! I like knowing exactly what ingredients I am putting on my body. Making my own skincare products at home, I DO know 🙂
DIY Skincare Products Are Easy To Make!
I made a deliciously scented body scrub, with raw sugar, coconut oil, Essential Oil, and other oils. It turned out amazing, and I will be making more in a little jar, to take with me to the shower tonight. I slathered that scrub on my hands and arms and OH. MY. GOSH. my arms are sooooooo soft now. I can’t get over how soft they are.
This DIY body scrub is perfect for that dry, rough summer skin! Or for those of you that use sunless tanner! This will slough off those dead skin cells, leaving smooth, pretty skin and then the sunless tanner goes on totally smoothly and no streaks!!! Next? My legs!!!!

Love the idea of diy products. I agree with the others that dry lips would make me want to make the scrub.

I really need a lip scrub. My lips get so flaky sometimes!
Valerie Remy-Milora says
I am as picky about what goes on my skin as I am about what foods I eat so I LOVE DYI skin care products so I can select exactly the right ingredients and know that there are no fillers! These all sound fabulous and I will have fun trying them. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, how creative. I agree, I would be hard pressed to not started munching on the flavors.
Cyndi @ MrsWrightWrites says
Awesome! I’ve been wanting to learn more about essential oils. I’ve heard soo many great benefits. I have a baby with eczema who I think would benefit tremendously from them.
Beth says
I love the lip scrub! I have been looking into using more oils in our lives.
HilLesha says
I love making my own beauty products, especially body and lip scrubs. I have made a coffee scrub before, using Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Sugar. It took every fiber of my being not to eat the scrub, because it smelled so delicious! I’ll definitely have to use essential oils sometime, though. 🙂
