This natural, exfoliating scrub contains goat milk and colloidal oatmeal known for their skin soothing and nourishing properties. There’s also baking soda which helps to cleanse your face while apricot kernel meal and finely ground calendula petals gently exfoliate skin. Plus, it’s unscented so there’s no need to worry about irritating fragrances!
DIY Handmade Calendula and Goat Milk Facial Scrub Recipe
Ingredients:
2.5 oz. powdered goats milk
2.5 oz. colloidal oatmeal
2.5 oz. baking soda
1 oz. apricot kernel meal
.2 oz. calendula petals, finely ground
Directions:
Grind you calendula petals in a coffee grinder or food processor. Then weigh out all of your ingredients using a scale and combine in a large bowl. Mix well. Then spoon into air tight containers for storage.
To use, simply remove a small amount of this all natural facial scrub from the container and mix with just enough water or honey (up to one Tablespoon) to form a paste. (For extra dry or mature skin, try mixing this scrub with rice bran oil or olive oil.) Then apply to facial skin in a circular motion for up to one minute. Alternately, you can use this scrub as a mask by applying and letting set for 5-10 minutes. Rinse with water to remove and pat dry. Store your scrub in a cool dry location. For natural, organic ingredients for this recipe, be sure to visit Mountain Rose Herbs.
