DIY Vitamin C Scrub

This DIY vitamin C scrub is one of the DIY face scrubs. It is designed to complement the DIY vitamin C face wash, DIY vitamin C face toner, and DIY vitamin C face serum. This DIY vitamin C scrub may be one of the most effective and beneficial of all the face care application steps.

If you have ever looked into skincare, you soon discover that vitamin C can play an important role in maintaining the appearance of the skin and improving the appearance of the skin in multiple ways. While research indicates that vitamin C is most beneficial for collagen production when taken orally, vitamin c can have its benefits when applied to the skin as well. So, let’s highlight those details for this vitamin c face scrub DIY.

diy vitamin c scrub

Ingredients:

Vitamin C is (1) mildly abrasive and (2) mildly acidic. Therefore, when applied to the skin it can act like both a physical exfoliant and a chemical exfoliant. In this way, vitamin C can help to noticeably minimize the appearance of scars. For these reasons, this DIY vitamin C scrub may be one of my favorite DIY vitamin c skincare recipes to use. The ingredients needed to make this DIY vitamin C scrub include an (1) exfoliant and (3) soap solution.

1. Exfoliant

For the exfoliant, you can use either sugar or ground flaxseed. Sugar is recommended for normal skin without any signs of wrinkles. A fine white sugar is mildly abrasive and can help naturally moisturize the skin. Ground flaxseed can be used on aging skin that shows some signs of wrinkles. It is a very mild exfoliant that ends up like a moisturizing face mask. The ground flaxseed leaves the skin feeling wonderfully smooth because it is loaded with beneficial properties for mature skin.

2. Soap Solution

The DIY vitamin C face wash is the soap solution used to prepare this DIY face scrub. It will provide you with the same benefits as the face wash. However, when combined with the exfoliant of choice, it can be used to gently scrub and clean the skin.

How To Use:

DIY Vitamin C Toner

This DIY vitamin c toner recipe is an easy DIY face toner for mature skin. It should be the second step in your DIY face care routine. You will notice that this post and recipe complements what has been shared for the DIY vitamin c face wash and the DIY vitamin c face serum. So, let’s get started with this easy to make DIY face toner.

diy vitamin c toner

Ingredients

The DIY vitamin c toner recipe is prepared with water, witch hazel, essential oils, and vitamin C.

1. Water

The DIY face toner recipes include distilled water as one of the ingredients. Distilled water is used because it has been processed in such a way that the contaminants have been removed. This is not the case with faucet water. Therefore, faucet water should not be used in your DIY skin care products.

2. Witch Hazel

This liquid solution is a very popular astringent. It assists with toning and cleaning the face after you have washed and rinsed the DIY vitamin c face wash from the skin. Witch hazel can also help to shrink the pores on your face while tightening the skin.

3. Essential Oils

This DIY vitamin c toner recipe is prepared with rosemary essential oil and ylang ylang essential oil. Both are essential oils that are beneficial for promoting youthful looking skin. Rosemary essential oil is powerful antioxidant that can penetrate the skin and help to eliminate free radicals. Ylang ylang essential oil is a moisture balance restoring oil. Therefore, it can assist with giving your skin a healthy natural glow. The DIY face toner for mature skin goes into more detail about these two essential oils.

4. Vitamin C

A vitamin c powder is used in this DIY vitamin c toner recipe. Vitamin C is a powerful free radical scavenger. As the body carries out normal body functions on a cellular level, free radicals are naturally generated. If allowed to accumulate, they can make the appearance of the skin look aged. Vitamin C gets rid of free radicals and therefore helps with the appearance of the skin. Another very powerful way in which vitamin c helps the skin is in collagen production. Collagen production is limited in part to the amount of vitamin C available. However, with all that said, what was stated for the DIY vitamin c face serum and DIY vitamin c face wash applies here too. Research indicates that vitamin c can provide the most benefit for the skin when it is taken orally. Therefore, a very simple oral vitamin c skin care recipe is shared below in this post as well. If you are using the entire vitamin c skin care routine, you can just drink the recipe once. You do not have to drink the vitamin c with every step of your face care routine.

DIY Vitamin C Face Wash

The DIY vitamin C face wash is designed to complement the DIY vitamin c face serum. Vitamin C is a well-known potent antioxidant with anti-aging skin care benefits. It is definitely one of my favorite products to use and recommend for skin care. However, it may not be in the way that you are currently thinking.

diy vitamin c face wash

Ingredients

This DIY vitamin c face wash is prepared with soap, essential oils, and vitamin c.

1. Soap

This DIY face wash is prepared with a liquid soap base. An olive oil soap base is one of the best liquid soaps to use on aging skin because it is moisturizing. For oily skin, a liquid pure coconut soap base is recommended because it is a deep cleaning soap that can help relieve oily skin.

2. Essential Oil

This DIY vitamin C face wash is based on the DIY face wash for mature skin. Therefore, it contains rosemary essential oil and ylang ylang essential oil. Rosemary essential oil is a potent free radical scavenger that is beneficial for all skin types. The ylang ylang essential oil can help to increase the natural oil production in aging skin.

3. Vitamin C

As a potent antioxidant, vitamin c is also a free radical scavenger. Free radicals are natural byproducts (scraps) that are generated as the body carries out its innumerable functions that we never even think about. As the naturally created byproducts or scraps accumulate, they basically age us physically and eventually visibly. Antioxidants like vitamin c scavenges and rids the body of free radicals. So, in this way, all by itself vitamin c is anti-aging product. However, vitamin c does even more for the skin when it is in the presence of collagen.

Research studies shows that we can get the most skin care benefits from vitamin C when it is taken orally. Therefore, while this DIY vitamin C face wash can provide skin care benefits with active ingredients for mature skin, it includes a simple oral vitamin c recipe for skin care as well. You can learn more about this in the post for mature skin care routine.

DIY Vitamin C Face Wash

Instructions:

  1. Place all of the ingredients in a glass measuring cup with a pourable spout.
  2. Use a spoon to stir the ingredients well.
  3. Then, pour the face wash mixture in the bottle.

How to Use:

  1. Place 1/4 teaspoon of the vitamin c powder in a 16-ounce bottle of drinking water.
  2. Shake the bottle of water well. Then, drink the water.

  7. Feel free to review the correct order to apply skin care as needed.

DIY Vitamin C Serum

This DIY vitamin C serum is a DIY vitamin c serum with coconut oil. Vitamin C powder is one of my favorite all-natural remedies used and recommended for treating both the skin and the body. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that works along with collagen to keep our hair, nails, teeth, and joints strong. This is one reason why vitamin C collagen gummies are becoming so popular in the beauty industry. As a potent antioxidant, I have personally discovered that enough vitamin C can also work wonders on the dark under eye circles. However, it does so in a way that you are probably not thinking since this is a DIY vitamin C serum recipe. Keep reading to the end to find out more about the gummies and under eye circles remedy as well.

1. Vitamin C

According to research studies, vitamin C is more effective for the skin when it is taken orally. In this way, the blood flowing to the skin can carry and deliver the necessary vitamin C to the skin surface.  When applied topically, vitamin C has a difficult time passing through the external epidermal layer of skin and into the dermal layer of the skin that actually controls the structure and elasticity of the skin. So, this is where a DIY vitamin C serum with coconut oil may be more beneficial.

2. Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is an all-natural, deeply penetrating oil that increases blood flood throughout the body even when applied topically. In fact, coconut oil is one of the VERY few things that can cross over the blood brain barrier. If you have never used coconut oil before, one of the first things you may notice is an increase in your mental alertness and an increase in your physical energy. For this reason, a DIY vitamin C serum with coconut oil is definitely recommended for a daytime application.

With all of that said, if you are going to use a DIY vitamin c serum, making it with coconut oil and other skin nourishing ingredients that can penetrate the skin may be the best way to go. This DIY vitamin C serum with coconut oil is created based upon the formula for the DIY Face Serum for Mature Skin. You can learn more about the active ingredients on that page. Also be sure to review the mature skin care routine for some additional skin care tips.

DIY Vitamin C Serum Recipe:

Instructions:

  1. Use a small funnel to place all of the ingredients in the bottle.
  2. Secure the lid on the bottle well. Then shake well.
  3. Another option is to place all of the ingredients in a glass measuring cup that has a pourable spout.
  4. Then, you can use a spoon to stir the ingredients well before pouring the mixture in the bottle.

How to Use:

  1. Place 1/4 teaspoon of the vitamin c powder in a 16-ounce bottle of drinking water.
  2. Shake the bottle of water well. Then, drink the water. This is the under-eye circles remedy.
  3. Repeat as wanted or as needed in the afternoon.
  4. Now apply the DIY Vitamin C Serum to clean, dry skin. You can review the correct order to apply skin care as needed.

In Summary

This formula has a wonderful fragrance and feels really nice on the skin. If you like to make your own homemade skin care products, you may also like to make your own DIY Collagen Gummy Bears. In the meantime, enjoy the DIY vitamin C serum with coconut oil.

DIY Face Scrub for Mature Skin

This DIY face scrub for mature skin leaves the skin feeling noticeably softer and smoother after the very first use. So, I am excited to share this recipe with you! However, keep in mind that a DIY face scrub for mature skin should be carefully selected based on the integrity of your skin. Depending on how an individual eats, exercises, and endeavors to take care of themselves physically, our skin will all age differently. Therefore, when speaking about “mature skin” it can be hard to call a number. If you are just getting started, you may be interested in the outlined mature skin care routine.

There are basically two types of scrubs or skin exfoliators that can be used including: (1) chemical scrubs and (2) physical scrubs. A chemical scrub is usually liquid and not physically abrasive at all. Therefore, it is physically very gentle on the skin. A physical scrub can also be very gently. However, it will usually provide some degree of texture that will physically scrub or exfoliate the skin. If your skin is fragile or tears easily, you may not want to use physical scrubs at all.

DIY Face Scrub For Mature Skin

This DIY face scrub for mature skin is a gently exfoliating and soothing physical scrub. It is prepared with an all-natural gelatinous fiber. Therefore, this DIY face scrub for mature skin gently scrubs while simultaneously moisturizing the skin. In fact, it may almost feel like you are getting a gentle scrub and facial peel all at once. So, let’s talk about the ingredients used for this DIY face scrub.

Ingredients

This DIY face scrub for mature skin is designed to complement the DIY face wash for mature skin, the DIY face toner for mature skin, and the DIY face serum for mature skin. Therefore, the ingredients used to make this wonderful scrub for mature skin includes (1) flaxseed powder and (2) a soap solution.

1. Flaxseed Powder

The flaxseed powder is made from the flax seed. In its powdered form, you can really harness the nourishing and moisturizing benefits from the gelatin it contains. It is a gentle scrub that contains beneficial fatty acids that help moisturize and smooth the skin. It also contains anti-inflammatory properties to sooth any areas of irritated skin. Then, it also contains minerals along with vitamins A, C, and E.

Vitamin A is needed for appropriate cell reproduction. While vitamin C is needed to (1) destroy age inducing free radicals and (2) work along with collagen synthesis to keep the skin smooth and tight. Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that is used to combat free radicals and aging.

With all that said, this flaxseed powder is an excellent choice for this DIY face scrub for mature skin. It gently exfoliates the skin with the initial application. Then, as the skin warms and actives the gelatinous properties, the scrub becomes slightly hard. Once you wet the scrub a second time with water, it makes your skin feel silky smooth.

2. Soap Solution

The DIY face wash for mature skin is the soap solution used to prepare this DIY face scrub for mature skin. The soap solution is a combination of a moisturizing olive oil soap base, antioxidant-rich rosemary essential oil, and moisturizing ylang ylang essential oil.

DIY Face Wash For Mature Skin

The DIY face wash for mature skin is a wonderful smelling formula created to address common concerns with maturing skin. The formula was created based on a health care approach in which three mature skin factors are considered and addressed. Therefore, this DIY face wash for mature skin is formulated with potent (1) moisturizers, (2) antioxidants, and (3) rejuvenators for the skin, mind, and body.

DIY Face Wash For Mature Skin

Free radicals are a normal part of metabolism. With accumulation, the free radicals cause our facial complexion to age. We may end up with dark circles under the eyes. Well, antioxidants do a wonderful job of combating free radicals that substract from our skin complexion and that can result in dark circles under the eyes. Maturing skin also tends to lackluster. Therefore, a second factor to address with mature skin is moisture and hydration. And lastly, the dreaded wrinkles are often a concern with maturing skin. The wrinkled skin is best remedied from the inside out.

Inside Out

With all that said, what we look like on the outside is sometimes a reflection of what is happening on the inside. Therefore, there are not enough face washes, face toners, face serums, face scrubs, or face packs in the world to counteract a poor diet. So, when using this DIY face wash for mature skin, you can also modify your diet to have much prettier looking mature skin in three simple ways.

First, if possible, reduce your sugar intake. You can take a 30-Day Low Carb Diet Challenge to assist with this. Second, make sure your protein intake is adequate. Eating healthy proteins with healthy fats like salmon are ideal. Third, take a daily vitamin c and collagen supplement.

Collagen is literally like human glue that holds the body together. Among numerous other things, it can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles. However, collagen can only carry out its role in the presence of Vitamin C. Therefore, to maximize the effects of its use, it is best to take the collagen supplement and Vitamin C at the same time. When done consistently, (1) a decreased sugar intake, (2) an increased protein intake, and (3) a collagen vitamin c supplemented diet can make a very noticeable improvement in the overall appearance of the skin.

You can also learn more about the health benefits of collagen and the health benefits of vitamin C or peruse a variety of collagen supplement options.

Our skin naturally renews itself from within. As new skin cells form below the skin’s surface, it pushes the old dead skin cells to the surface. This process can clog the pores and cause your face to look dry and dull. The DIY face scrub for dry skin (1) removes dead skin cells and (2) unclog pores while delivering nourishing skin care benefits to the skin.

While we can pick up dust and dirt that is floating around in the air, most of the dry skin that we experience is a result of the skin naturally renewing itself. The DIY face scrub for dry skin can help remove the dead skin cells and thereby allow your face to have a healthy glow.

As the face scrub removes dead skin cells from the surface of your skin, it allows other face treatments to be more beneficial. For example, when your pores are unclogged, it allows the DIY face serum for dry skin to be better absorbed into the skin. And as a result, it can deliver its skin nourishing properties for dry skin types.

2. The Exfoliator

A good exfoliator for a face scrub is small, gentle, and perhaps dissolves easily. It should be small enough to easily apply to your face. And, it needs to be gentle so as to avoid tearing the delicate skin we have on our face. When it is easy to dissolve, it minimizes the risk of us over exfoliating because it dissolves as it is being used.
