We made the Aloe, cucumber and Tea Tree Cleanser (normal to oily skin).
I think I may have actually made this recipe a little stronger that supposed to because of substituting different ingredients for things I didn't have. Here is the recipe!
Aloe, cucumber and Tea Tree Cleanser (normal to oily skin)
3 ounces (90ml) of liquid Castile soap (store bought as Whole Foods)
1 ounce (29g) Aloe Vera gel
1/2 ounce (15ml) water
Quarter ounce (7.5ml) glycerine
1/2 ounce (15ml) witch hazel
1 drop rosemary
1 drop tea tree extract
Quatre ounce (7.5ml) cucumber juice*
1 cucumber
3 tablespoons water
Peel 1/2 cucumber and add three tablespoons of water. Puree in the blender and strain. Add the cucumber juice to the other ingredients and mix well. Place it in a container with a name and write down the date
This mixture should last anywhere from 2 to 3 months
Aloe vera gel & Glycerine: Helps with moisture, solubility and glide-off of the cleanser.
The other ingredients provide extra cleansing that the oily skin needs, without stripping the skin.
The cucumber is used for clarifying and tea tree extract is for the antibacterial properties.
