Homemade cleansing milk with cucumber

It is no coincidence that we put the noun "milk" before the name "make-up remover" because, at the time, women removed their make-up with milk. Natural and beneficial, it softens the skin and deeply cleanses the face. Plus, it makes a great homemade makeup remover that's easy to prepare at home!

Ingredients needed:

• 200 ml whole milk
• 1 grated cucumber

Preparation:

To enjoy the beauty benefits of whole milk, simply mix 200 ml of whole milk with a grated cucumber. To do this, heat the milk in a small saucepan, add the cucumber to it and keep a gentle boil for 4-5 minutes. Remove the preparation from the heat and let it cool before filtering it. Store your homemade cleansing milk in the fridge in a glass bottle and use over the course of a week.

Homemade makeup remover gel with aloe vera

It is no secret that aloe vera is one of the miraculous ingredients that Mother Nature offers us. Thanks to its many virtues for beauty, this plant is part of the composition of many DIY cosmetic products: body scrub, face cream, body butter, lip balm, solid shampoo, hair mask, etc. You can also take the opportunity to make a homemade makeup remover gel that softens and does not attack the skin! Demo below!

Ingredients needed:

• 40 ml of aloe vera gel
• 30 ml of sweet almond oil

Store your makeup remover in a transparent spray bottle (100 ml) or a neutral spray pump. Shake before each use. While rose water brings freshness, sweet almond oil acts as a protective filter on the face, while softening the skin. Lavender oil, for its part, perfumes the preparation and promotes blood circulation.
