13. ESSENTIAL OILS USED IN COSMETICS.
If we mix essential oils with an adequate excipient (it helps giving them shape and consistency) like a beauty cream, yogurt, or sour cream, they become excellent facials (mascara) for your skin. We recommend whole milk or sour cream for dry skin and yogurt. For oily or greasy skin, we recommend yogurt or whey.
In both cases, add a teaspoon of honey.
If the mixture comes out too liquid, add oats or rice flour. If you want to make a hydrating facial (mascara), add ground almonds.
When applying the mascara, remember to do it on a day you're not going out; the skin on your face might get stiff or rigid.
Before applying the mascara, clean your skin deeply (prepare your skin). You can do this with a cotton swab with hot water or milk.
