Crafting a homemade lotion may involve a few more steps than other handcrafted herbal products, but this soft and soothing chamoen and effort! Chamomile is loaded with powerful antioxidants that help regenerate the skin, tighten pores and reduce blemishes and redness. Adding this aromatic herb to our lotion creates a versatile product that will moisturize and soften the skin while smoothing wrinkles and clearing up acne.
The first step is to brew our chamomile infusion. This can be made with either Roman chamomile, Chamaemelum nobile, or the German, Matricaria recutita. While these two plants are certainly different species, they offer many of the same benefits and are often used interchangeably in commercial skincare products. Feel free to use whichever species of chamomile that you have available.
