So roll up your sleeves and start making these wonderful skincare products!
Face Masks
Store-bought face masks can be super pricey filled with chemicals we don’t even want to know about and sometimes they just aren’t that effective. Luckily you can make your own face mask (depending on the type of skin you have) and maybe even call your friends to enjoy a spa day at home!
The great thing about homemade face masks is that you probably already have the majority of the ingredients at home and you know exactly what you are putting on your face (the same goes for the rest of the beauty products).
If your skin desperately needs hydration we recommend you make a cocoa mask. For this mask you’ll need:
— a tablespoon of organic cocoa powder
— a quarter of an avocado
— a tablespoon of honey
Mix and mash everything in a bowl and let it sit on your face for about 10 minutes, after that wash your face with warm water and proceed with your usual skincare routine.
If you are battling with acne, then you should try a honey mask. For this mask you’ll need:
— a tablespoon of honey
— a tablespoon of nutritional yeast
— two tea bags of chamomile tea
Brew two tea bags of chamomile tea in one cup and let it cool completely. While the tea is cooling down you can stir in a bowl a tablespoon of honey and a tablespoon of nutritional yeast. Add just enough tea to the bowl to keep the paste thick but runny enough so it can spread on your face. Apply a thin layer and let it sit for about 20 minutes. After that wash your face and proceed with your usual skincare routine.
And if you’re in a need of some natural glowing skin try out the banana mask. For this mask you’ll need:
— half of a banana
— a tablespoon of orange juice
— a tablespoon of honey
Mix and mash everything in a bowl and let the mask sit on your face for about 15 minutes, after that wash your face with luke-warm water and proceed with your usual skincare routine.
Face Scrubs
Face scrubs are an essential part of any skincare routine and are there to help us get rid of dead skin cells and to make our face more elastic, glowing and youthful!
There are plenty of face scrubs in the market but many of them contain unnatural products which cause more harm to our skin than we can imagine, so it’s best to stick to our kitchen products for beautiful skin on our face!
If you have sensitive and dry skin you’ll want to try out the brown olive scrub. For this face scrub you’ll need:
— 2 tablespoons of organic brown sugar
— 1 tablespoon of organic extra virgin olive oil
— a couple of strawberries (optional)
— essential oil (optional)
When making any of these natural face scrubs always make sure you have a 2-to-1 ratio of oil and exfoliator, so as twice as much exfoliator than oil.
Combine all of these ingredients into a bowl and stir and mash until you have an evenly combined scrub. You can also put it in a container and store in the fridge for a couple of days.
Essential oils and fruit are optional because essential oils are there to give the scrub a scent you like and certain fruits and vegetables can make your scrub filled with more vitamines essential for your skin. So for instance strawberries have vitamin C which helps you achieve a brighter skin tone.
If you want a natural anti-aging face scrub we recommend you try the black coconut scrub: For this face scrub you are going to need:
— 2 tablespoons of organic black lava sea salt
— 1 tablespoon of organic coconut oil

Mix and match everything and store it into a tightly sealed container. The ingredients for this face scrub have all have anti-aging compounds. Coconut oil is packed with antioxidants while black lava sea salt helps you get rid of dead cells and helps cell activity. Avocado is high in vitamin A which also helps in shedding dead skin cells leaving your skin youthful and glowing.
And if you want a more even skin tone we recommend you try salty almond scrub. For this face scrub you’ll need:
— 2 tablespoons of organic sea salt
— 1 tablespoon of almond oil
— a half of cucumber (optional)
— essential oil (optional)
Mix and match everything and store it into a tightly sealed container. This combination of ingredients can all help you get an even tone of your skin. Sea salt helps remove dead skin cells while almond oil improves skin tone and can reduce the effect of UVB rays.
Lip Scrub
Soft and beautiful lips are something we all want to have. And we can achieve them with just a few powerful natural ingredients! Our lips are prone to peeling and chapping especially in harsh weather conditions, and with Autumn just being around the corner we really need to start thinking ahead! Lip scrubs help you keep your lips moist, soft and smooth.
Before you moisturize your lips with a natural lip balm exfoliation is first in order!
For a simple yet very effective lip scrub you are going to need only two ingredients: sugar and honey!
Mix 2 teaspoon of organic sugar with 1 teaspoon of organic honey and gently start exfoliating your lips with either an old toothbrush or with your fingers. Just remember to exfoliate very gently, lips are very sensitive!
After you are done exholiating you can apply your homemade natural lip balm.
