DIY Makeup Remover

As you know by now I love a good DIY anything, but especially a DIY beauty remedy.  Here is a great makeup remover.  It is also a great night time moisturizer and soothing skin cream.

1 Tbsp jojoba oil
7 Tbsp pure vegetable shortening
10 drops lavender oil

Warm oil and shortening until completely melted, and cool 5-10 min.  Add your essential oil and mix until it starts to thicken.  Pour into a cute little jar and in a few hours your potion will be ready to use.  To use get a soft cloth or use your fingers and apply 1/2 tsp to cover your entire face, neck and décolleté. follow with astringent or toner.  This will only keep for about 6-8 months so use it up. 
I use these cute little jars to store mine in right now, you can get them through amazon or IKEA

I also like these jars too, they are perfect because they are tinted blue to help your oils and ingredients last longer.

Time to workout!

Here is another idea for you today!  Hope you enjoy!  Let me know how it goes!
