How do you make a natural face wash?

To make natural face wash, mix the oils together to create the base for the soap. Next, add oatmeal, honey, cornstarch or borax, essential oils and aloe vera gel to the mixture, and stir until well combined. From start to finish, the whole process takes about 20 minutes.

1. Mix the base oils

   Mix 2 tablespoons of organic, unrefined coconut oil with 1 tablespoon each of organic, unrefined olive oil, filtered water and glycerin soap. Alternatively, use 1 tablespoon of castile soap in place of the glycerin soap. Stir until well combined.

2. Add the oatmeal to the base oils

   Add approximately 1/3 cup of oatmeal to the base oils. Stir until well incorporated

3. Pour honey into the mixture

   Pour 1/4 teaspoon of honey into the mixture, and stir until well combined.

4. Add cornstarch or borax to the mixture

   Thicken the natural face wash mixture with about 1 teaspoon of cornstarch or borax.

5. Add your choice of essential oils

   Add between 20 and 30 drops of your favorite essential oil, such as lavender, lemon or orange essential oil. Stir until well combined.

6. Pour aloe vera gel into the mixture

   Pour 1 teaspoon of aloe vera gel or aloe vera juice into the mixture, and stir until well incorporated.
