Dry Skin Face Moisturizer
My journey to make my own DIY products continues with success. My focus these past few weeks has been about the DIY I use almost everyday in the bathroom and simplifying my beauty routine by making my own beauty and personal care products. Does your skin get dry at certain periods of the year or even just with some hormonal change? What kind of dry skin moisturizer are you using now?
Today I am sharing a very easy and affective dry skin face moisturizer cream. The skin around my lips and the top of my nose tend to get really dry during winter. I tried several expensive store bought creams with supposedly safe ingredients without success. I made a vitamin C oil face which I love and apply every night and saw amazing results with just using that, but I decide I want a moisturizer that I can use during the day. I massage it to my skin for about a minute. When applying it before my foundation it helps it go on very smoothly.

I couldn’t believe how perfectly this moisturizer has worked on my skin. I apply just a tiny bit and massage it on my skin for about a minute to let it penetrate. I am happy to save money and know that I am avoiding tons of toxic chemicals by making my own.
