Re: Homemade Skincare Recipes and Masks

Has anybody got any clues as to how I could make a home made pore refiner for use under foundation, maybe with witch hazel or something??

Harvest Skin Toner: The Mayan Secret Formula


by Annie Berthold-Bond


SIMPLE SOLUTION: Cu***bers have the same pH as the skin, and its juice is very softening and emollient. Carrots are rich in vitamin A and minerals that nourish and heal the skin, helping to keep it from aging. The herb spearmint stimulates and cleanses the skin with its antibacterial and antiseptic properties, and chamomile is not only rich in minerals, but helps prevent wrinkles, is moisturizing, and anti-inflammatory. Add a little lemon juice, and you are set. I've learned some tips and suggestions, as this is one of my favorite formulas in 'Better Basics for the Home'. A good time to make this toner is when the harvest is bountiful. If you don't own a juicer, borrow one to make large batches. You can also make just a week's worth of this toner at a time.
Zazil Toner
1/4 cup cu***ber juice
1/8 cup carrot juice
1/2 cup spearmint infusion
1/4 cup chamomile infusion (avoid if you are sensitive to ragweed)
1/2 cup lemon juice
Make the cu***ber juice and carrot juice. Make strong spearmint and chamomile teas, and let cool. Combine all the ingredients in a glass jar and shake to blend. If you freeze the mixture in ice cube trays, just pop out a cube and rub it over your face, then put the cube in the refrigerator and use the toner over the next few days.

Re: Homemade Skincare Recipes and Masks

when my skin doesn't look pure and healthy, this is a mask that i put on for 15-20 minutes:
green clay
honey
yoghurt
glycerin

the amount of ingredients that i put is enaugh for only one application, and when i wash it off my face looks fresh and clean again. i have combination skin, but it works for all skin types

Re: Homemade Skincare Recipes and Masks

I've read through this thread twice, but not within the last few weeks so I don't remember if these were posted or not, but here goes.

I found these on my Whole Foods website:


These do-it-yourself concoctions are designed for dry, oil or normal skin types. The apple cider vinegar acts as a natural astringent; the olive oil helps remove dirt; the lactic acid in the yogurt exfoliates; and the lemon juice tightens pores.
Dry Skin
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/2 mashed banana or avocado
  • 1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp olive oil
Oily Skin
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp lemon juice
Normal Skin
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar
Choose one cleanser, depending on your personal skin type. Combine all ingredients well. Scoop out approximately 1/4 cup and apply all over face with a soft, circular motion. Rub into skin for at least one minute. Rinse well with cool (not cold) water. Gently pat dry with a soft cloth. Store unused cleanser in the refrigerator for up to seven days.

Re: Homemade Skincare Recipes and Masks

Is there a recipe that really works for callused feet (heels mostly). Mine are in real need of a sandblaster and I just can't keep enough moisturizer on them. They still crack and bleed.

Any remedies?
