Homemade Tendskin Recipe

Hey guys... I found a recipe for basically a knock-off for TendSkin. If you don't know about this product, it is amazing in dealing with ingrown hairs on the body...

What you need:

Uncoated aspirin
70% alcohol
Witch Hazel
A measuring cup/bottle
2 bottles used to shake mixtures
1 8oz or more bottle/container to keep finished product

What you do:

1. Pour 5.5oz of 70% alcohol into one bottle.
2. Drop 18 uncoated aspirins into the alcohol. Cap bottle and shake.
3. Pour 2.5oz of witch hazel into the second bottle.
4. Drop 8 uncoated aspirins into the witch hazel. Cap bottle and shake.
5. Wait awhile (30 minutes to a whole day) for the aspirins to dissolve in the liquids. Shake periodically to help dissolve aspirin and mix. NOTE: not all of the aspirin will dissolve. That’s ok- some of it never will.
6. Now combine both the alcohol and witch hazel mixtures together into one bottle. Make sure you shake it up before you pour them out so you also get the aspirin residue into the new bottle.

This last bottle is your Tendskin! Use 1-2 a day. Reduce usage if you experience dryness or flaking or irritation. DO NOT USE IF YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO ASPIRIN. Make sure you shake it well before each use.

Some great uses for Tendskin:


Acne
Boils
Ingrown Hairs
Razor Burn
Exfoliation
Remove self tanner
Toner
After any hair removal

I use it twice a day on my face after cleansing to make sure I have removed all makeup and to prevent breakouts. Since the acetylsalicylate is actually a mild exfoliant, it leaves my skin super soft. I also use it to prevent razor burn in various places.

Re: Homemade Tendskin Recipe

Thanks so much, shipping to Canada is insane for this stuff. I already tried the recipe, works like a charm.
