Other DIY Ingredients
Not every natural ingredient belongs on the skin.
Ingredients such as lemon juice, undiluted essential oils, baking soda, and strong acidic mixtures can irritate the skin and may cause burning or increased sensitivity.
Natural does not automatically mean gentle.
This is especially important when applying DIY mixtures to the face, around the eyes, or to already damaged skin.
Always Patch-Test First
Before trying a new homemade skincare mixture, test a small amount on a limited area of skin.
Wait to see whether you develop:
- Redness
- Burning
- Itching
