Making Your Natural Skin Moisturizers

All your homemade skin moisturizers should contain 15 drops of essential oil diluted in 12 teaspoons of carrier oil.

Never use more than the suggested quantities, essential oils don't become more effective by using extra, in fact it may even have a negative effect.

Try to make your homemade skin moisturizers in small batches so that they are always fresh, if however you really must make up a large batch, add 1 teaspoon of Wheat Germ Oil or 1 vitamin E capsule to it (unless of course you happen to be using wheat germ oil as your carrier oil) as the wheat germ oil and vitamin E are both natural preservatives.
