Lemon juice contains natural astringents. Note: Recipe works for two people, so invite a friend, or cut recipe in half for just you.

Ingredients:
•1 tsp lemon juice
•2 egg whites
•3 tsp honey
•Optional: 4 drops of your favorite essential oils
Preparation:
Mash or blend the above ingredients.
Smooth over face.
Let it stay for 10 minutes.

OHM

The best part is that, not only can you make "OHM" in a snap, but it feels great on the skin. Enjoy!!


Ingredients:
3 tablespoons finely powdered oats
1 tablespoon runny honey
2 tablespoons warm whipping cream
2 drops myrtle essential oil
4 drops lavender essential oil




Blending Procedure:

Warm the whipping cream in a microwave. Do not burn or boil it, just warm it lightly for about 15-20 seconds.


Combine the honey and whipping cream and stir well to dissolve honey. Add oats and stir. Let sit for 5 minutes.


Add essential oils and stir again to ensure the mix. To use, wet face and scoop "OHM" into palms. Secure hair away from face. Apply to face and neck using upward, sweeping motions, and gentle, circular motions to clean the skin. Repeat if desired (or just because you like the way it feels!) Rinse well and follow with toner and moisturizer.


The shelf life of this product is necessarily limited by the fresh cream. You can store it in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator for as long as you would safely store fresh cream in the refrigerator. Check the "use by" date on the cream carton you use for an idea of how long the product would remain fresh in the refrigerator
