    Heidi, here's a tip for ya... I live in Texas and our summers here are insane. This is sandal wearing season and my feet tend to get dry and crack, also, sometimes my elbows and knees can get pretty dry. I mixed 1-cup of good olive oil, to a little over 1-cup of pink Himalayan salt; mix and use on dry skin and rinse w/warm water... I tell ya, you'll LOVE the softness of your skin; this is extremely handy for dishpan hands too, again, do it when your skin is dry, apply a bit (it goes a long way) and scrub, when you rinse... beautiful and healthy skin emerges. I sometimes use this scrub (I make a separate batch and will add an essential oil to give it that 'spa' feel/scent) in the shower and rinse... I do not have to put on any lotion/cream afterwards. For safety in the shower, keep some plain baking soda and shut the shower off and sprinkle the baking soda to 'wash off' the oils so you do not slip and fall. I enjoy your videos and the scripture... and yes, our God is ALWAYS good. Shalom.

    Hi Heidi, I made my own skincare for a number of years, still do. Just a tip to make your melting process a little easier. Add your beeswax, Shea butter and coconut butter to your pot, once those have melted then add your infused oils....that way it will precent he beeswax from floating to the surface and hardening plus it will preserve the goodness from your infused oil. Another oil I personally am very fond of adding to my formulations is apricot kernel oil. Apricot kernel is a natural sunscreen, so will pair nicely with coconut and Shea butter, plus it has mega anti ageing properties.

There is still amazing beneficial oil still on the herbs. Feels like baby's skin when ya get out. Love being able to reuse things that we 'think' are spent. ;) God Bless & Keep You & Yours! All my best, Ceci.

    Another option for very dry skin if you don't want to use sandpaper - wash with a nice sugar scrub. This helps to clear off the dead skin cells so that the skin can better absorb the moisture. My good friend used to make and sell lotion and she made sugar scrub with the same scent so as to work together with the lotion/cream.

He applied it to a recent gash to his forehead and he told me that within three days the bruise was gone and the cut was totally closed. Yippy, for homemade, nontoxic healing creams. I also made your salve without the plantain, yarrow and comfrey and dear Heidi, my skin is softer and moister than it's ever been.

    I have normal to oily skin. I normally oil cleanse with coconut oil. I just apply it and wipe off with a warm wash cloth. It leaves behind enough moisture for my skin. I used to also honey wash in the mornings but for some reason our water heater isn't heating the water. It's easy to spread the honey if you add a few drops of warm water to it and then splash it off. It's harder to do that with heated water on the stove and I'm out of the honey anyway. Lately I just wear sunscreen on my face to prevent more acne scars yet and leave the rest of my body as is to absorb more Vitamin D and even in the Philippines I didn't burn. I've already had sun positioning even though I was sitting under a tree so I make sure not to overdo it. Also I'm out of coconut oil for now so I've been using a soap that's manuka honey and tea tree I got from winning a Wedderspoon giveaway from a natural beauty blogger I followed. Hope to get coconut oil again soon since it doesn't irritate my eyes like the soap does. Anything I put on my forehead migrates into my eyes and since soap mixed with water is runnier than the oil it gets in them.

    Why wash it off? Warm water wash your face with wash cloth then ap0ply the coconut oil. The drains in the place you live will clog up over time due to the coconut oil becoming solid when in the pipes and will be a nightmare to unclog and cost a lot of money as that is not a typical type of clog, the plumber will be lecturing you about letting oils go into the pipes!

    @@cindys.w.8566 That's how oil cleansing is done. It's not an issue if you wash them with hot water. Same as you would with greasy dishes or clothing. If I didn't wipe off the oil before going to bed it would get on my sheets and pillow. If I oil pull with coconut oil I spit it out in the trash.

    Hi Heidi, I’ve been making my own skincare for about 13 years now. Just a suggestion. Add about 2% of your formula hexane free castor oil. Castor oil is a natural humectant, has anti microdial properties, and is wonderful in skin creams or hair treatment formulations.

    The essential oils you pick is the reason on how the cream works. Oils are very specific. They all have benefits but all specific benefits. You need to know what you need out of the oils for your skin needs. My skin is older so what I want is different than a 20 year old.

    I make an infused oil with beeswax and store it in a large easy to use [wide mouth] container and then as I need it, I add the essential oils and perhaps CBD oil, heat for 30 seconds to one minute, and stir with a very thin knitting needle. That way, everything stays fresh and not overheated. I sometimes put the salve base into 4 or 8 ounce jars and then proceed as above. It's very flexible for me. My CBD oil is calendula, coconut, sometimes comfrey oil all from my garden plus the CBD oil, and I named it "Atomic Balm". And it is as named. Just great

BTW just as an aside, I pulverize and use the left over "INFUSED OIL HERBS" from the infused oil and keep it a jar for use before and after gardening. I never ever throw out precious herbs in oil. If face or hand too oily I use chickpea flour to remove excess oil. I try to not use soap at all on my face and I am 68 with pretty good spotless skin. Thks for all your tips. Take care and be safe

    I know many like DoTERRA but I will never again use or purchase any items that are from a Multi Level Marketing company. The reason they are expensive is because of all the middlemen that get paid. Many essential oils are edible regardless of brand, the only reason NOW foods does not claim that is because it costs a lot of money to get verified for such. Though I do not do it often, I have consumed some essential oils such as using the peppermint or orange as flavoring when making homemade chocolates. They turn out great

    For my feet, I use my home made magnesium cream on wet feet after my nightly shower and I put socks on, my feet are very nice and smooth not too soft. I once used coffee to scrub my feet and I couldn't walk for a couple of days as my feet were so soft. Coffee is also messy though it's good if you don't use it as hard as I did. Magnesium cream is so much better.
