Making your own face cream?!

Making your own face cream?

1. Can you use cocoa butter or coconut butter, or will it clog your pores?

2. Is it okay to use beeswax, and how can you soften it?

3. What essential oils can be used on the face?

Hi Keat B, coconut oil one of the best things you can apply directly on your skin and hair. It not only gives temporary relief to skin problems like rashes, but it aids in healing and restoring skin to a younger appearance. It has also been known to help with people who suffer from yeast infections in the skin, and there is solid research that shows the MCTs in coconut oil do overcome yeast infections. Coconut oil also makes an excellent massage oil.
2. It's okay, you need melt 15 g of pure beeswax together with 130 ml sweet almond oil, in a bain-marie. Do not melt the beeswax in a pot on direct heat from a plate on the stove (electric or gas) since it can burn easily and cause a fire hazard.
Some people are hesitant to use beeswax in skin products, since they think that it will "block the pores" but when used in a mixture like this, not only does it do wonders for softening the skin, but will not cause any problems.
3. It may be a Jasmine Oil, Rose Oil, Rose Geranium Oil, Neroli Oil, Rosewood Oil, Palmarosa Oil, Myrrh Oil, ...their very much.
