When you brush, when you spread the cream on your face or legs when you shave, when rigged, used different types of cosmetics. While each has its own characteristics, there is something that unites the whole category, namely to make contact with your skin. Most cosmetics on the market contain substances derived from oil refining, synthetic and harmful pollutants. May contribute to the onset of allergies, do not leave the skin to breathe naturally as it should do and pollute the environment, especially water! Not to mention that the creation of a cosmetic industry through the suffering of many animals. Until testing is prohibited by law, the self-produced cosmetics may serve to limit, in our small, the problem. There is good and ecological alternatives for sale, but with a little 'imagination and resourcefulness, you can make at home effective solutions. It 's funny! And then, you want to put the satisfaction?

Cut the lemons into 4-5 pieces by removing only the seeds, blend with a mixer together with a little water and salt, put the pulp in a saucepan, add all the water and vinegar and boil for about ten minutes, stirring with a whisk because it does not stick. When it is thickened and a little 'cool to put in glass jars and use two tablespoons for the dishwasher and pleasure for dishes by hand. It 'also a good scale for the sink and stove, especially if they are stainless steel.

Chop almonds finely in a blender, and mix with remaining ingredients. It must be made up almost a solid. Use it when you remove a little bit, mixing it with water in the palm of your hand until it is creamy, and then passing it on his face. The almond is emollient and soothing, cleans the clay, lavender balances. Stored in the refrigerator holds one week to ten days, so it is better to prepare step by step!
DEODORANT
Ingredients: baking soda, water, essential oil for scent (optional).
put in a glass of water, add baking soda, stirring until it melts and let stand for half an hour. Then just pour the liquid (we get a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate) in a spray bottle (perhaps salvaged from an old deodorant finished and well washed). The deodorant is ready! Store in refrigerator.
Sample recipe: in a spray of deodorant (they have the advantage of being rechargeable) put 20 drops of lemon essential oil, 20 drops of lavender essential oil, 1 drop of essential oil of Salvia sclarea. Perfume surprising and exhilarating. Shake before using.
One drawback: these are deodorants, not antiperspirants. So if you have the most abundant sweating not block completely (thank the armpits. ... Antiperspirants that leave skin so dry after a certain period of continuous use gives a crazy itching!). And if you sweat shirt on a very tight and maybe there is a risk that the synthetic T-shirt (but not your skin) after a few hours to take on a faint odor of sweat.

Add 4 / 5 drops of essential oil of tea tree and / or mint. Stepping on the essential oils mortar with a pestle and mix well. Transfer to a jar like those creams. For use take a small amount with a teaspoon (I use those plastic ice cream) and dip the moistened brush, use a normal toothpaste. Caution: Do not dip the moistened brush directly into the jar. It is recommended not to dip the moistened brush into the jar for obvious reasons of hygiene, also remember that baking soda is abrasive and therefore should be used occasionally to a deep cleansing, or scrubbing penalty gum irritation! We also remember that the essential oil of sage is neurotoxic and hepatotoxic, better to leave its use to experts in the field.
