Tender care of Men’s skin
There is so much focus on women and natural skincare, yet we musn’t forget the masculine beings who dwell alongside us. Men need tender loving care as well, and this includes paying careful attention to the delicate skin on a mans neck and face. Essential oils can help reduce the unpleasant experience of razor burn, a result of a fast morning shave. Small red dots on the face and neck, and flaky and sore skin may also be aggravated or compounded by acne. Avoid using aftershaves containing alcohol and other strong chemical products.
Here are a few recipes I wanted to share with those interested…
Aftershave Aroma
* 10 drops Lavender
* 8 drops Tea Tree
* 2 oz distilled water
Combine ingredients in a spray bottle and shake mixture well before
each application.
Morning Bliss
* 6 drops Cedarwood
* 3 drops Pine Needle
* 4 drops Grapefruit
* 3 drops Lavender
* 2 oz Massage Lotion
Combine and mix in a bottle. Apply after shaving.
Nourishing Face Cream
* 4 drops Tea Tree
* 4 drops Lavender
* 3 drops Myrrh
* 4 Tbs of Massage Lotion or your favorite skin cream
Apply sparingly, morning and night.
Note: As always, be certain you are not allergic to any ingredients listed above, using your own good judgement or that of your natural health care provider.
