Sample Recipe

Gentle Milk & Oatmeal Facial

• 2 tablespoons white kaolin clay
• 1 tablespoon fine colloidal oatmeal
• 1 tsp buttermilk powder
• 1 tsp powdered lavender buds or rosehip powder (optional)
• 1 tsp rosehip seed oil
• 1 tsp aloe moist gel
• Lavender hydrosol (enough to make a thick paste)

Mix dry ingredients and add hydrosol a little at a time until you get a paste. Apply to the skin in a gentle circular motion and leave it to dry for about 10-20 minutes. Wash off with warm water. A light oil such as camelina can be applied afterwards if the skin feels tight.
