Face Cleanser

Cleansing the skin properly, especially the face, is fundamental to good skin care. This is even more important if you live in a city or near an industrial area, as airborne toxins will readily adhere to your face , causing damage and premature aging.
Cleansing is the first of the three step, twice daily face care regime of cleansing, toning and moisturizing. Because facial skin is so delicate, soap is much too harsh and drying to use to wash the face. Special face cleansers, mostly based around a cream or a lotion, are the best way to cleanse your face thoroughly yet gently. The following cleansers use a cleansing lotion base, and are best applied and wiped off with damp cotton balls.

Here are some best natural Homemade Face Cleanser

Creamy Cucumber and Elder flower are the best natural face cleanser.
Cucumber features in many commercial face cleansers, as is a tried and trusted natural astringent and cleansing agent. Here, we use organic cucumber to create a fresh, natural cleanser, suitable for all skin types. Elder flowers are healing and astringent.
Ingredients in this Face Cleanser
5 oz (150ml) cleansing lotion base, 1/2 of a fresh, organic cucumber, 7 drops elder flower tincture, 5 drops lemon essential oil.
Preparation of Face Cleanser
  1. Wash the cucumber thoroughly in cold water. Chop a third of the cucumber roughly, place it in a blender, and puree.
  2. Strain the cucumber through a piece of clean muslin. Squeeze the cloth to extract the juice.
  3. Measure the cleansing lotion base into a glass container with a good pouring spout. Add the cucumber juice and stir thoroughly. Add the elder flower tincture and lemon oil and stir to thoroughly combine all the ingredients.
  4. Pour the mixture into two bottles. Label them clearly. One is ready for use and other can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one month.

Milk nature's most effective natural face cleanser.

  2. Add half teaspoon of salt. Stir.
  3. Take balls os cotton, soak and then gently dab milk and salt lotion all over forehead, face and neck.
