	Skin Balancing Cleanser One of the healthiest natural facial cleanser recipes for oily or combination skin This skin balancing cleanser is one of my favorites. It's great for oily and combination skin because it cleanses, hydrates and balances your skin's oil production, while still being very gentle. Natural facial cleanser recipes that contain aloe vera (like this one) are great because aloe is a powerful skin healer, balancer and cleanser. Combined with lavender to heal, petitgrain to clear congested skin, and geranium and ylang ylang to stabilize oil production, this recipe is a fabulous everyday formulation. And you'll LOVE the scent! Recipes for Other Skin Types Normal: Homemade Face Cleanser Dry/Mature: Facial Cleanser Cream Sensitive: Olive Oil Facial Cleanser Acne: Tea Tree Oil Facial Wash Skin Balancing Cleanser Recipe Ingredients 1/2 cup (125ml) Lavender Hydrosol OR Herbal Infusion (see below) 2 tablespoons (30ml) Vegetable Glycerin 2 tablespoons (30ml) Aloe Vera gel 4 drops Lavender essential oil 3 drops Petitgrain essential oil 2 drops Rose Geranium essential oil 1 drop Ylang Ylang essential oil Directions Pour everything into a 200ml (or larger) dark glass or PET plastic bottle. Shake well to mix. Wait 24 hours before using to let the mixture "cure". To make a herbal infusion: Combine 1/2 cup (125ml) distilled water with 2 tablespoons each of lavender flowers, lemongrass and chamomile in a small pot and bring to a boil on the stove. Remove from the heat and let steep for 30 minutes to an hour. Strain out the herbs and use in the skin balancing cleanser recipe above. To use, dampen your skin with warm water, then gently massage the skin balancing cleanser into your skin. Rinse, pat dry, then apply toner and natural moisturizer. Customizing your Skin Balancing Cleanser I actually prefer Rose Geranium hydrosol to the lavender because it smells DIVINE, and it's great for balancing not only skin but mood and hormones as well. Lime hydrosol is another great choice if you love citrus scents. It's especially good if your skin is very oily or you're coping with acne. If you use lime hydrosol, consider switching the petitgrain essential oil with lemon or lime. Just remember not to use it before going out in the sun if you use citrus oils.
