Flaxseed Healthy Skin Cleanser


FLAXSEED HEALTHY SKIN CLEANSER

1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon oatmeal ( old-fashioned, not instant or steel-cut)
1 tablespoon flaxseed

Flaxseed oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, which are highly beneficial to skin. Oatmeal is a gentle skin-softening cleanser. Milk is the ultimate instant skin beautifier.

Preparation:
In a small microwave-safe bowl, warm the milk in the microwave. Stir the oatmeal into the milk. Add the oil and mix well.

Application:
Pour a small amount of this onto a clean wet washcloth or sponge. Gently wash your face with this every morning and evening. Rinse off with warm water.

Pomegranate Power Toner



3 tablespoon pomegranate juice
1/4 cup vodka
1/2 teaspoon salt

The pomegranate contains more inflammation-fighting antioxidants than red wine or green tea does. Vodka with a pinch of salt removes dead skin cells and acts as an antiseptic for the skin.

PREPARTAION

In a clean plastic bottle, combine the pomegranate juice, vodka, and salt. Shake for 30 seconds.

APPLICATION
Wipe your skin with this as needed, using a clean cotton ball.
