Pure Skin Care


Intimacy, originally uploaded by Ayala Moriel.

Facial skin-care regime that is free of preservatives, dyes and other impurities...

Toner:
After washing your face with warm water (or warm water and salt or castile soap, if you prefer...), tone your skin with a pure floral hydrosol. Use orange flower water if you have an oily or acne prone skin. Use rosewater or rosewater mixed with vegetable-glycerine. If you have a sensitive skin, use a mister to apply to the face. Otherwise, you can use a cotton ball or cosmetic pad.

Moisturizing Treatment:
Best used before bedtime, for dry to normal skin. Apply after toning your skin with hydrosol.
Make your own mixture of your favourite oils, choosing from:
- Squalane oil (opt for the olive oil derived, rather than the shark-liver derived variety)
- Rosa Mosquetta Oil
- Apricot Kernel Oil
- Jojoba Oil
- Sea Buckthorn Berry or Seed Oil
- Essential oils of your choice that are beneficial for your skin type. i.e.: neroli (for normal to oily skin), rose and carrot seed oil (for mature skin), chamomile (for sensitive skin).

I use a blend with the following:
4ml rosa mosquetta oil
5ml squalene oil
1ml Jojoba oil
0.5ml Sea Buckthorn Berry Oil
3 capsules Vitamine E oil (from natural source)
1 drop Rose otto
1 drop Neroli essential oil
