Author: Katie Stewart Wellness

Ingredients

  • 10 % castor oil
  • 30 % olive or sunflower oil
  • 60 % avocado oil

Normal Skin

  • 20 % castor oil
  • 80 % olive or sunflower oil

Oily/Acne Prone Skin

  • 30 % castor oil
  • 60 % olive or sunflower oil

Instructions

  • Blend your chosen oils in a glass bottle or jar.
  • Add a quarter size amount of oil to the palm of your hand.
  • Massage into your skin in circular motions.
  • If you don’t have makeup on, let the oil sit on your face for 5-10 minutes.
  • Apply a hot washcloth over your face and allow the steam to penetrate into the pores (about one minute).
  • Use the washcloth to remove the oil from your face.
  • If you find any oil still on your face, run the washcloth under hot water and repeat steps 5 and 6.
  • Moisturizer isn’t required after oil cleansing, but if you feel it’s best for your skin, feel free to do so.
