Maintaining healthy skin starts with proper cleansing. Using a cleansing oil made from natural ingredients can reduce irritation and enhance hydration, compared to products containing chemical ingredients. Today, let’s create a simple cleansing oil of your own.
Ingredients
- Apricot Kernel Oil: Softens and nourishes the skin.
- Almond Oil: Excellent for soothing and moisturizing the skin.
- Jojoba Oil: Balances sebum production without clogging pores.
