If you have oily skin, use tea tree oil or any of the following essential oils: bergamot, geranium, or lemongrass. If you have dry skin, consider any of the following essential oils: chamomile, lavender, rose, or sandalwood. If you have mature skin, use any of the following essential oils: geranium, jasmine, lavender, or neroli. Make sure that you are not allergic to the essential oil before adding it to your face wash. If you are not sure if you are allergic to the oil, place a few drops of diluted oil on the inside of your elbow and wait a few hours. If no rash or irritation develops, you can use the oil.
For a deeper clean, allow the honey to sit on your face for 5 to 10 minutes.
If you have oily skin, use 1 part castor oil or hazelnut oil and 2 parts olive oil or sunflower oil. If you have combination skin, use 1 part castor oil or hazelnut oil and 3 parts olive oil or sunflower oil. If you have dry skin, use pure olive oil, sunflower oil, or coconut oil. You may add a drop or two of castor oil or hazelnut oil.
If you have oily skin, use 1 part apple cider vinegar and 1 part water. If you have normal skin, use 1 part apple cider vinegar and 2 parts water. If you have sensitive skin, use 1 part apple cider vinegar and 4 parts water. Be sure to do a patch test on the inside of your elbow before using the vinegar-water mixture on your entire face. If you get an allergic reaction, do not use this face wash.
