Rubbing alcohol
Glass beaker
High-speed mixer
A dropper bottle, roller bottle, or other small container
Ingredients
3.04
oz
Fractionated coconut oil
approx. 87 grams
0.8
oz
Aloe vera gel
approx. 23 grams
0.08
oz
Rosehip oil
approx. 2.2 grams
0.02
oz
Geogard 221
approx. 0.6 grams
Instructions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. In a well-ventilated area, wipe down your workspace and all equipment with rubbing alcohol.
Using the digital scale and gloves, carefully measure out the fractionated coconut oil and rosehip oil into the glass beaker.
Add the aloe vera gel and stir in well.
Finally, add the Geogard 221 preservative and use a high-speed mixer to fully incorporate the ingredients.
Transfer to a dropper bottle and store in a cool, dark place.
Notes
Add a few drops to the palms of your hands and gently massage it into the skin underneath your eyes.
Be very cautious applying this product to avoid getting it in your eyes.
This recipe lasts for about a month with the Geogard 221. If you prefer to skip the preservative, store the product in the refrigerator.
If you don't have fractionated coconut oil, you can substitute it for grapeseed oil or a similar lightweight carrier oil.
Always consult with a dermatologist before using this product or any new product on your face.
