5 quick and easy recipes for great skin using our all natural gel
In a previous blog we talked about our 5 core ingredients and how they worked together to provide such an effective, multi-purpose skin gel. Now, we are highlighting how you can take our gel and create even more uses with it!
Face Wash:
This gentle face wash is excellent for those with sensitive skin, rosacea or breakouts.
Mix 1 Tbsp. Nature’s Aid skin gel with 1 tsp almond milk and 1 tsp lemon juice.
Rinse your face and apply mixture, massaging it into the skin.
Wait 1-2 minutes and then use a warm, damp washcloth to gently wipe it away.
Anti-Aging Gel:
Our all natural skin gel contains many great anti-aging properties, and when combined with coconut oil, the results are heightened.
Mix 1 Tbsp. Nature’s Aid with 1 tsp 100% raw, organic coconut oil.
Massage into hands, face or neck until the contents are warm.
Use a warm, damp wash cloth to gently remove the mixture.
Extra Moisture:
Although aloe vera is a great moisturizer, Nature’s Aid is a water-based product and as such is considered a light moisturizer. For those with extra dry skin or looking to up their moisture game, try this simple concoction.
Mix ¼ part oil with ¾ part skin gel.
Massage into hands, arms and legs.
Almond oil has a great smell but even olive oil from the kitchen will offer great results. Remember to keep the mixture small as the gel will only last a few days with this mixture.
Nature’s Aid Body Scrub:
Get rid of dead skin cells and bring forth fresh, smooth skin with this body scrub.
Mix ½ cup Nature’s Aid with brown sugar or baking soda to get a gritty, but not sharp, texture. Add the brown sugar or baking soda a little bit at a time to ensure you get just the right amount.
Rub the mixture over your elbows, heels, arms and legs in the shower and rinse clean.
Hand Sanitizer:
This natural hand sanitizer won’t dry out your skin.
Mix ½ cup Nature’s Aid skin gel with ¼ cup alcohol and 20 drops of your favourite essential oil.
Transfer mixture into a spritz bottle.
When needed, spritz hands and rub together. The alcohol will fight germs while the skin gel moisturizes and the essential oil offers a nice, light fragrance.
