Now it’s time for a little skin beauty. And we’ll begin with shaving.
Shaving can disrupt or irritate your skin, especially if the product you are using isn’t as gentle as it claims. These pre-and-post-shave recipes will have your legs in tip-top shape in no time and will help reduce bumps and irritation while soothing your skin.
PRE-SHAVE HAIR SOFTENING BLEND RECIPE
• 2 tsp. Castor Oil Carrier Oil
• 1 tsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 2 drops Lavender Essential Oil
• 2 drops Sandalwood Essential Oil
• 2 drops Geranium Essential Oil
• 2 drops Patchouli Essential Oil
Apply to the area to be shaved a couple of minutes prior to getting in the shower or bathtub. Let the warm water soften your skin and hair and then proceed with shaving.
POST-SHAVE SKIN SOOTHING BLEND RECIPE
• 8 oz. Grape Seed Carrier Oil
• 10 drops Lavender Essential Oil
• 5 drops Geranium Essential Oil
• 5 drops Roman Chamomile Essential Oil
Add Essential Oils to the bottle of Grapeseed Oil and shake well to incorporate. After your bath or shower, but before toweling dry, apply a small amount of oil over the area just shaved. Allow to absorb for a few seconds before toweling dry or getting dressed.
