Macadamia Oil Cleaner Is Something You Must Make At Least Once
The main ingredient in this cleanser is the caster oil. Caster oil is a very good cleanser. Dirt and grime is attracted to it and it is very slow to absorb into the skin. Caster oil is quite thick and needs to be mixed with other oils so we can spread it more easily. You could actually mix it with other oils other than macadamia, such as apricot or avocado oil.
We include jojoba oil in the mixture, as this is really good for different skin types. And jojoba oil does not block the pores.
If you want to use the macadamia oil cleanser to remove makeup, then we do not add the essential oils. This is because the essential oils in the macadamia oil cleanser can irritate the eyes.
This is a relatively easy project, once you have all the ingredients ready. A nice one to make with some leftovers from other projects. Always keep your leftovers, just in case.
The Macadamia Oil Cleanser can be massaged into the skin to remove any makeup or dirt. The simply wipe away the cleanser with a damp cotton pad. The wipe the skin quickly with floral water or toner. Or just use a face cloth soaked in warm water.
