HOMEMADE ANTI-AGING FACIAL SERUM

Back24. 07. 2019 Tutorials
Have you been wondering how to make an anti-aging face serum that is also 100% natural?

No science :-)
We've selected four basic carrier oils and 3 essential oils for you to make several variations with.


???? Rosehip oil

You can read about the amazing effects of rosehip oil in our article.
???? Macadamia oil

An excellent choice for an anti-aging and anti-wrinkle blend, mainly because of its high palmitoleic and oleic acid content, which slow down the aging process and help skin cell regeneration, plus it's light and very absorbable.
???? Jojoba oil

It is actually a liquid wax with a unique ratio of highly unsaturated fatty acids. Unlike other oils, jojoba oil is very similar in chemical composition to human sebum, spreads and absorbs well into the skin and regulates moisture. It is also very well absorbed.
???? O live squalane

It is an excellent natural alternative to silicones, which are often used in commercial serums. It is also very similar to squalane, which our bodies naturally create to hydrate and protect our skin. Olive squalane is much lighter than carrier oils.

???? Lavender essential oil
???? Geranium essential oil

???? Frankincense Essential Oil

They are known for their regenerative, protective, soothing and anti-inflammatory properties (however, they are not recommended in the first trimester of pregnancy, geranium even throughout pregnancy)
