This is the easiest, most economical way to make your own night cream using essential oils. Not only does this oil smell amazing but I have found that it makes my skin softer than anything else I've used (which is a lot!). It is also helping to reduce fine lines and dark circles. In short, it is amazing and you won't be disappointed!I only recommend Young Living's essential oils because they are "100% pure essential oils backed by our Seed to Seal® promise."* All of the oils are therapeutic grade and many of them can be beneficial when ingested, and used in cooking. Please see the Product Guide for more information on which oils can be taken internally vs. externally. All of the oils can be beneficial when diffused and of course they make your house smell great!
Ingredients:
- 3 Tablespoons Organic Coconut oil
- 1 Teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive oil
- 11 drops Young Living Lavender essential oil
- 12 drops Young Living Lemon essential oil
- Small jar - I like to use the smallest of the mason jars
- Mixer
In your mixer, add all of the ingredients and blend on low until they are combined. Then carefully whip on high until the cream is nice and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Unless you have a spatter guard on your mixer, increase the speed slowly otherwise it will splatter all over! Use a spatula or a spoon to scoop out your new night cream into the jar you've chosen. Don't worry - the cream will harden as it sits. If you have a small bathroom that gets really hot (like mine) the cream may liquefy again but don't worry, just shake it up then let it sit and it will harden again. I've left mine out while taking a shower and this has happened. Try leaving it in your medicine cabinet when not in use.
This Night Cream makes a great gift for any occasion! If you use the small mason jars, you can put a small circle of pretty fabric in between the jar lid and the screw top part. (The lid comes in 2 parts). Enjoy!
