1 Coconut whipped body butter
Our skin gets exposed to numerous pollutants, germs, and oils throughout the day. That's where coconut oil comes in to help combat this exposure- its Caprylic and Lauric fatty acids help to minimize inflammation and provide moisture both internally and externally.
This wonder oil will smooth and hydrate your skin and is clinically proven to reduce wrinkling. You can enjoy these benefits by using the recipe below.

2 Olive oil cleanser and moisturizer
Wrinkling doesn't only come from aging, but also due to the reduction of elasticity, moisture and lack of nutrients.
Olive oil contains polyphenols, which combat free-radicals. It also has Vitamins A and E that moisturize the skin. This oil also renews skin cells and helps to cleanse the skin. Its oleic acids provide anti-aging properties, mono-saturated fats, and B & D vitamins that prevent the formation of new wrinkles.

1 tbsp of Castor Oil
½ cup Cold-pressed Olive Oil
10 drops of Lavender (or other )Essential Oil
DIRECTIONS
Mix all the ingredients, pour into a pump bottle, and use the oil blend as desired.
3 Cucumber aloe cold cream
Cucumbers are fantastic for reducing skin irritations, inflammation, and hydrating your skin. Vitamin C and Caffeic Acids in cucumbers contribute to alleviating the reduction of puffy eyes, dry skin, and aging.
Aloe Vera is another incredible ingredient that will leave you smelling fresh, and your skin feeling reinvigorated. It's an anti-aging gel that soothes, moisturizes, and renews.
Aloe Vera reverses the effects of damage, sunburn, and rough skin by increasing collagen fibers that help your skin stay firm.
Both cucumber and aloe vera work to reduce wrinkles and keep your skin looking youthful.
INGREDIENTS
1 Cucumber
½ cup Aloe Vera Gel
½ cup Olive Oil
½ cup Organic Coconut Oil

Juice or blend the cucumber.
Melt the olive oil and coconut oil together and then cool.
Pour the cooled oils and cucumber into a mixing bowl, and slowly add the aloe vera gel as you mix.
Stir until you achieve a smooth lotion. Pour into a lotion bottle and store in the fridge until its ready to use.
