DIY SKIN CARE FOR HIM

OATMEAL FACE EXFOLIATOR

A face exfoliator is a great way to remove dead skin and should be used at least once a week.

YOU WILL NEED:

2 tablespoons, Ground Oatmeal

¼ teaspoon, Sea Salt

1 teaspoon, Water

½ teaspoon, Olive Oil

½ teaspoon, Honey

Combine all the ingredients into a paste and apply directly on your clean damp face, exfoliating with your fingers. Rinse with warm water.

SHEA BUTTER SHAVING CREAM

Settling on the perfect shaving cream or lotion can be quite a daunting task. This homemade solution, however, promises to deliver on moisture and smoothness.

YOU WILL NEED:

½ cup, Shea Butter

1/3 cup, Sweet Almond Oil or Fractionated Coconut Oil

10 drops, Essential Oils of choice for scent

Whip shea butter in a bowl and slowly add melted coconut or sweet almond oil while whipping, followed by the essential oil. Store in a glass jar and give a tough whisk before the next use.

SHEA BUTTER AFTERSHAVE CREAM

For a more moisturized after-shave, a shea butter-based cream will work great.

YOU WILL NEED:

1/8 cup, Coconut Oil

½ cup, Shea Butter, softened

2 to 4 drops, Essential Oil for fragrance (optional)

Combine these ingredients in a food processor or blender and apply a small amount with your hands after shaving. Keep refrigerated between uses.

WITCH HAZEL AFTERSHAVE SPLASH

Witch hazel is an all-natural astringent for the face and body which tones and refreshes, and can be combined with other natural ingredients to make a great aftershave splash.

YOU WILL NEED:

1 cup, Witch Hazel

1 teaspoon, Vegetable Glycerine

6 drops, Sweet Orange Oil

3 drops, Sandalwood Essential Oil

What's Your Shade?

I have seen many a red in my time. Some have made me cringe. If it weren’t for the exceptionally high maintenance of red colour, I would run home and shampoo it all off. Some have been stunners, blessedly. You would imagine women with darker complexion would not be able to rick blonde and red shades. Would you be surprised if I told you there is a wide range of colour you can experiment with?
