Guest guest Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Between winter weather and holiday exhaustion, some of us are in need of a morning pick-up! I thought I would share something that works wonders for me in hopes that your skin will like it, too. Here is my recipe for a vitality serum for the face: In 10 mls of jojoba oil I blend essential oils of lemon, peppermint, pine, orange, geranium, grapefruit (1 drop each), and rosemary (2 drops). This amount lasts me several months. I apply it by spritzing my palm with chamomile hydrosol and adding 2-3 drops of the serum. I rub my hands together and pat them all over my clean face. The effect is remarkable. It " wakes up " my skin and the fresh scent helps invigorate my mind, as well. I often follow the application with a quick spray of a tonic I make from spring water with helichrysum, geranium, lavender, frankincense, and palmarosa and a touch of polysorbate to keep the oils in solution. It is my favorite morning spritz, although neroli hydrosol is a close second. Special thanks to Josh for asking me about this, which reminded me that I was planning to send it to the list! jaime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
