The most important
part of my evening ritual is washing my face. I rinse the grime of the day down the sink and
nuzzle a fresh face into my pillow.
Calm, clean, sweet dreams.
Lately, I have been
making some effort to adopt more natural and homemade beauty products. Not only can I feel comfortable knowing exactly
what I’m shloppin’ on my face, but I also save $$$$ on expensive, brand-washed
facial cleansers.
After looking at the ingredients list on my store-bought facial cleanser, I thought it might require a chemistry set and some crazy ingredients to make my own effective face wash.
nope! Turns out after a little research, I already had all the things I needed in my kitchen: yogurt, honey, and oatmeal!
Because the cleanser should stay on about 15minutes, I would recommend incorporating it into the evening. However, if you are an early bird, go for it!

Who says your face wash can't be a bed time snack as well?
Enjoy!
All my love,
