What say you ladies?<\/p>\n
I realise that in many ways, many niche or indie skincare brands were born in someone’s kitchen. Most of the time, it was to fill a need or to find a way to get around commercial products. Perhaps it is because they are sensitive to certain ingredients, or it might be that they want to try a natural homemade alternative which they know will be free of chemicals and preservatives.<\/p>\n
I’m curious though. Are you into making your own skincare?<\/p>\n
The most adventurous I got probably, was with the apple cider vinegar toner<\/a>. I used to make up batches every couple of weeks but after a while, I just got tired of it. I was also using the aspirin mask<\/a> for a spell but that soon palled too. Using Extra Virgin Olive Oil on my skin<\/a> broke me out so badly I’m not even going near it… except for cooking and for dipping bread into. The last time I cooked anything up in my kitchen for skincare purposes, it was the L’Occitane Ma Creme<\/a>… which really can’t be counted \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n Otherwise, I prefer just purchasing my skincare ready made, because I don’t have much faith in being as clinical at home as I should be when messing around with things like skincare which need to be able to keep, and because most homemade remedies tend to get messy.
