Beauty DIYs

I love making face masks (for myself) using ingredients from the kitchen, they work well and I can choose to put in the ingredients that I am not allergic to.

The only way to physically change the clothes of your skin is online shopping. This is a place where you can try on things and then order it.

The oils sound amazing mandy_1987

Im currently obsessed with natural soaps atm and did a soap making class last week which I loved. Got to take a milk cartoon home which will make about five bars of soap. Love the simplicity of the ingredients and being a soap there’s no wastage with plastics and doesn’t have an ingredient list a mile long! Can’t wait to open my soap in a few weeks!!

I make a few of my own things lately (I have a toddler running about who has a keen fascination with my bathroom products)
I did many hours of research of what was in natural products and effective imgredients.
I made a scrub with rice flour,sandalwood powder and some licorice. It doesn’t smell fantastic lol but it works so well!

I’ve also made a serum with some hemp seed oil, hazelnut oil, carrot seed and frankincense. My skin feels so soft!
I also make epsom salt and himalayan salt bath mixes with essential oils. So relaxing!

I have supplies for my next idea-a coconut scrub with coconut oil, coffee, olive oil and might add some essential oils.

Its all good fun and you know exactly what you are using on your skin. Really works wonders too!
The only issue is once mixed the oils need to be used fairly quick as I dont have vitamin e to make it longer lasting.

I’m keen! I got a kit from Kmart for the kids to make bath bombs but the came out sandy! Added my glycerine but it still didn’t help.

I love the Lush and Bomb Cosmetics bombs does anyone have any great recipes?
I am also after a bath and shower melt recipes to please 🙂

huh, I have citric acid, didn’t think about the coconut oil @Sandyfeet on hindsight it would have been great for little baby’s skin.

it was fun though watching the kids go nuts in the bath. (with joy okay?)

Love making bath bombs from bi-carb, lemon or lime juice, essential oils and coconut oil. Noms.

Ah – I found a photo of them! I used some silicone easter moulds for them.

I’ve made bath melts with dried lavendar and cocoa butter + sweet almond oil. I’ve also made scrubby moisturising bars for my legs and arms with ground rice (blitzed it up in my coffee grinder), cocoa butter, and camellia oil.

I have made a brown sugar scrub in the past with brown sugar, coconut oil and vanilla. It made me hungry!!
