Facial Treatment oil

[Salvo]

Hi everyone. I have been hanging on to a bottle of ESPA facial tratment oil for ages but have to admit that it is now finished. Given it is so expensive I am going to have a bash at making some for myself for my menopausal dry skin

I have looked at the list of EO's on the back and have most of them at home. However i wondered if anyone could recommend a carrier oil/s to use.
I have a few carrier oils but not sure which would be the best combination. The oils i have are:

Jojoba, Vit E, Fractionated coconut, soya, sweet almond, olive oil and grapeseed.

I have googled it and looked up many sites but am starting to get I know there is a wealth of experience here that I trust.

Anyone any ideas. Its purely for my own use so happy to experiment.

Love and Light
Linda

Hi,

I've recently had the same idea- made myself two oils and moisturisers with organic shea butter and some drops of rose otto - saving myself a small fortune!!

I would go for jojoba from your list, with sweet almond as my second choice, maybe make up two small pots and see which one you like best

good luck and happy experimenting,

Thanks Bunchie i will try that. I am having great fun making all sorts of things. Made a load of different soaps this week and have practically been pouncing on my family members when they come out the shower to see how they liked them Think hubby is getting to the stage he just wantsa good old bar of asda soap and some peace

Hi, I bought Camelia oil for facial blends and it is wonderful. I really love its silkiness. Its not too expensive either and goes beautifully with elemi for dry skin

I would recommend Apricot oil or Fractionated coconut for your face - these are thinner oils but of course if your skin is dry then you may wish to add a little Avocado or Jojoba oil to that. Evening primrose oil is also good for hormonal / menopausal skin so you could look at using that or adding it to the Apricot / Frac coconut to thin it a little.
Good luck
