Glow naturally: DIY oatmeal facial cleanser

Share
Consider using honey to clean your face. Honey is a natural exfoliant, so it helps get rid of dead skin cells without the harsh, abrasiveness of salt and sugar scrubs. It also makes a great moisturizer, and leaves your face feeling soft and smooth.

 IN the age of clean beauty, nature continues to outshine synthetic trends and few ingredients are as versatile and skin-friendly as honey.  Rich in antioxidants, antibacterial compounds and natural humec¬tants, AWS Honey brings powerful, soothing benefits to your skincare routine. One of the best ways to experience its nourishing properties? A simple, homemade Oatmeal Natural Facial Cleanser that gently exfoliates while hydrating the skin.

Why AWS Honey?

Sourced with care, AWS Honey is raw, unfiltered and packed with nutrients that help fight inflamma¬tion, draw moisture into the skin and promote a healthy, glowing complexion. It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin and effective enough to help manage acne-prone or dry skin.

Oatmeal Natural Facial Cleanser

This cleanser gently exfoliates, soothes and moisturises the skin. 

Here’s recipe: 

Ingredients: 

• 2 tablespoons of rolled oats

• 1-2 tablespoons of warm water 

• 1 teaspoon lemon

• 1 teaspoon AWS natural honey

• 1 teaspoon plain yoghurt 

Instructions: 

1. Grind the oats: Place the rolled oats in a blender or food processor and grind until they reach a fine powder. 

2. Combine ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the ground oats with warm water, lemon juice, plain yoghurt and honey. 

3. Apply and massage: Gently massage the mixture onto your face in circular motions for a minute or two. 

4. Rinse and moisturise: Rinse your face with lukewarm water and pat dry. Follow up with your favourite moisturiser. 

Tips:

• Adjust the amount of water to achieve your desired consist¬ency. 

• You can use this cleanser as a mask by leaving it on for 10-15 minutes before rinsing. 

• Test a small area of skin before applying it to your entire face.
