Though it seems odd to cleanse your face with oils when you read that skin oils can cause acne, but it is true. Oils such as Castor oil, sunflower seed oil and olive oil can make a very nice facial cleansing and moisturizing mixture. The caster oil cleanses your skin while the sunflower or olive oil moisturizes. Your skin will thank you and you will have the softest and most beautiful complexion you have ever had. Try it and let me know how it turns out for you.
How to Mix Organic Oils for a Facial Cleanse
Paying attention to the type of skin you have, normal, dry or oily, mix the oils as indicated below.
For Oily Skin - mix 2 to 3 parts caster oil with one part sunflower seed oil.
For Dry Skin - mix one part caster oil to 2 or 3 parts sunflower seed oil.
For Normal Skin - mix 1 part caster oil with one part sunflower seed oil.
*Olive oil can be used in place of sunflower seed oil.
Shake the mixture until it is completely mixed. Pour a large handful of mix into your hands and massage over your face for approximately 1 minute. After, take a wash cloth and soak in hot water as hot as you can stand it but not too hot to burn your skin. Lay over your face for about 1 minute until you feel the cloth cooling down. Then take the cloth and wipe away any excess oil or dirt on your skin. Your skin will feel totally clean and soft.
This mixture makes enough solution that will probably last you about 6 months. No longer will you have to invest in those expensive cleansers on the market. My husband tells me that my face glows more and feels so soft.
