Anti-Aging Skin Treatment Formula

This elegant formula is specifically designed to help skin cells regenerate. Aging, devitalized, or environmentally damaged skin will drink up the benefits, and if your skin is still youthful and dewy it will help you keep it that way!

Here are the simple instructions for making this wonderfully beneficial formula:

INGREDIENTS
2 teaspoons hazelnut oil
2 teaspoons unrefined rosehip seed oil
2 teaspoons unrefined avocado oil
2 drops balsam Peru essential oil
4 drops neroli essential oil
2 drops palmarosa essential oil
2 drops rose otto essential oil

Most of these ingredients may be found at your local natural foods store, or online. Mountain Rose Herbs has rosehip seed oil if you can’t find it locally. And although this might look like an expensive and extensive ingredient list, it will make enough to last for a very long time.

1. Combine all ingredients in a 1-ounce dark glass bottle and cap tightly with a screw-type top. Shake vigorously to blend. Store in a cool, dark, dry cabinet for 2 weeks prior to use, so oils can synergize. It is important not to store a dropper top in the bottle, as the rubber will degrade and allow the volatile therapeutic properties of the essential oils to evaporate. Reserve a separate dropper top just for this bottle. For maximum potency, use within 6 months.

2. To use, cleanse the skin with a mild, super-fatted goat milk or herbal soap or a natural creamy cleanser of your choice. Then place 3 to 5 drops of the formula in your palm, mix with a dab of facial cream if desired, and massage into face and throat for 1 minute. Do this twice daily.

Yields approximately 1 ounce.

Anti aging skin treatment formula can cure all sorts of skin diseases such as pimples, acne and blackheads. Numerous valuable acne curing medicines are present in the market and these medicines are very cheap also.

In preparation for summer, Aloe Vera lotions seem an essential product. Not only will Aloe Vera heal the skin, it presents a cooling alternative to heavier creams and lotions.

Pure Aloe Treatment, from the Made from Earth skin care line, with citrus and vitamin E for preservation is the best.

You have to keep Made from Earth Pure Aloe Treatment product in the refrigerator after opening. Which is great because then it is always cold. Because this is so natural, a little goes a long way. The consistency may vary, but the one I received looks just like freshly pressed aloe vera and this could be added to homemade beauty products you are using soon after you make them.

The high absorption of this product is impressive and
there is no sticky feel. You can use it as a cooling hand moisture treatment and seconds later, all you will notice is your skin plumping slightly and feeling smooth and very soft.

100% Chemical Free. . .I love it. . the way nature and my skin wants to be…
