How to save money with homemade moisturizers

Have you ever wanted to know how to make your own moisturizer? Making your own skin moisturizer isn't hard, and it is something that you can do inexpensively. With homemade moisturizer you can easily save over $5 to $10 per bottle versus what you would buy in the store.Many of the top name cosmetic companies cash in on women's desire to have tighter skin, less wrinkles, fewer outbreaks of acne, the general want to provide a more beautiful outward appearance. One of the most popular items is moisturizing cream. They include ingredients with exotic names and tout the effects of these products.

In reality, corporations often only include trace amounts of these ingredients, and the ingredients that really do work and comprise the majority of the product are available very inexpensively. The most important aspect of a moisturizer is a hydrant. One of the most popular and inexpensive hydrants is glycerin. Glycerin can be made from animal or plant products. Vegetable glycerin is often available at your local supermarket, and is sure to be available at a health food store. Glycerin attracts moisture from the air and hydrates your skin. In very dry climates you will want to use more then you would in very humid areas. Antioxidants applied topically can help prevent damage from everyday factors such as pollution or sun exposure. These ingredients are often what make over-the-counter beauty creams so expensive, but you likely have them in your own home. Green tea, vitamins, essential oils, and other additives can be added as you see fit. The most important ingredient in a beauty cream is what hydrates and seals. The most effective product known to do this is plain mineral oil. Many people balk at applying oil to their bodies or faces, but mineral oil is non-comedogenic, won't cause acne, and acts as a wonderful topical moisturizer. A very effective moisturizing process is very easy and inexpensive. Simply combine a small amount of glycerin with the additives of your choice and a small amount of liquid. A mixture of one crushed vitamin c tab, a squirt of aloe vera gel and a small amount of green tea works very well. Apply this after leaving the shower and then coat it with a layer of mineral oil to seal in the moisture. This process will allow the water soluble ingredients to be applied directly to the skin, and the oil to create a barrier that keeps it in.
