DIY day - DIY SILICONE FREE face and body moisturiser

Hello you lovely people ! In the last post I wrote about the cons of silicone oils in facial care products,so I came up with this quick DIY custom made face and body moisturiser using only 2 all natural ingredients on a budget.

What you need :-
1)Aloe Vera Gel (Store bought)


2)Coconut oil

                                                        click to buy this on flipkart

3)Tea tree oil (Optional)

4)A toothpick to mix

Proportions :-
Wait ! There are absolutely no proportions to this recipe :P All you need to do is mix the two ingredients according to your skin type.


For oily skin :- You use more of aloe and less of oil if you have oily skin.

For normal skin :-Use them in equal proportions for normal skin.

For dry skin :- Use less of aloe and more of oil in case of dry skin.

(Additionally , you could add a drop of tea tree oil if your skin is acne prone.It will work wonders,I promise.)

Why is this DIY a good choice ?
Firstly it is all natural and does not contain any harmful chemicals that may damage your skin.
Coconut oil is an easily available natural oil which is rich in lauric acid ,a fatty acid which is considered to be one of the healthiest for your skin.It moisturises , protects skin from ageing , has a small amount of natural spf.It soothes skin in case of allergies,it fades marks with time.
Aloe Vera is a gel ,hence it will get absorbed like magic and hydrate your skin and soothe in case of sunburns.It is anti microbial ,hence prevent acne .It is filled with antioxidants which will give your skin a healthy glow.You can customise this according to how you like it ,for instance,I use equal proportions of the two during the day such that it stays non-oily and dewy ,and I increase the proportion of coconut oil during the night to repair my skin.Also use it as a makeup base if your foundation is too dry.It will prevent it from looking cakey and spread like a dream giving you a healthy glow.Last but not the least you actually get a product that multitasks naturally for cheap stakes.

Try this and let me know how it worked for you ,lots of love xo
