This refreshing homemade face wash will have you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed in the morning with its refreshing coconut peppermint scent!
Facewash… one of those necessary items around the house that can cost a fortune! I don’t know about you but every time I go shop for face products, I just get overwhelmed by all the choices and high prices and end up walking away. Why do I want to spend $30 and up for face washes full of chemicals that make giant claims to make me look younger?
So…. since I’m kind of an essential oils all-natural kind of gal, I thought… duh…. make your own!
Making your own is SO easy and you actually know what (and can pronounce) all the ingredients, PLUS… you can customize your scent to your liking.
I actually make it in a variety of scents.. my all time fav being peppermint because it’s so rejuvenating and brightens up your morning. Lavender is amazing to use for your night time wash because of its soothing properties. Lemon, orange, rose… the list goes on. You can even make some for your manly man using a more masculine scent!

Do Terra does not save you money.
There are other brands that cost way less and are just as good . .

I am all about making my own beauty products. I bet the addition of the coconut oil is a great way to lock in moisture while getting the face clean as well! Love a double duty product like this!

I love using essential oils but I have never made my own face wash with them. This is cool!

Now this is a nice idea. It might be fun to make some of this with my daughter some day so we can both keep some containers.
Melissa says
I rarely can find a good face wash that doesn’t dry my face or make it feel oily so I am going to try this one. Who would think a DIY could be better than all those expensive face products.
Stacie @ Divine Lifestyle says
Oh wow! That looks really great. I’ve gotten really into making my own scrubs and the like, so I can’t wait to add this to my list. Thanks!
