Wonderful and Easy Facial Cream Recipes and Ideas

Just some Tips - Ideas:

Have Acne?

Have a pimple or two that you want to get rid of quickly? Just dilute  lemon juice (about 1/2 of a lemon) with water, dab pimple with solution and quickly kill germs, cool the inflammation and improve your skin's blood circulation.

Antiseptics

There are many natural antiseptics that are available in the herbal world. One of the best antiseptics is the all-favorite Tea Tree oil. It is a very powerful antiseptic. If you use it for acne problems, dilute it a bit in small amount of olive oil. I use it full strength (they call that neat) but I know I'm not allergic to it.

Another great antiseptic herb/weed is BURDOCK...yep, burdock leaves - just make a poultice and its excellent if you have a swelling, bruise or a boil. You can use the water from the poultice to wash your face if you are prone to acne as well.

Then there is THYME - just boil some water and add thyme in a tea bag or strainer - use the water to wash or rinse your face.

And of course, we can't leave out our most favorite....GARLIC.... Not only is it an excellent treatment for skin irritations when applied mashed - its a wonderful health boost - just slice a few cloves garlics, dip in olive oil, and swallow!

Need an Astringent or Toner?

Here you go - lots of easy, natural products will tone, tighten and strengthen your skin. Mash or juice cucumbers, zuccini or such and use the juice as a nice toner.

Here's a great recipe for a protein toner - just beat the following together: 1 tablespoon of milk, 1 teaspoon of honey and one egg. Whip or mix together and apply to face and neck - leave it on as long as you can stand it - then rinse with warm water - splash as always with cold water.
