Self-sufficient care – we show how to make shaving cream itself
Learn to make shaving cream yourself – better later than never
For thousands of years, people have been cultivating the traditional production of organic cosmetics from aromatic oils. Essential and basic oils provide an alternative way of even producing gentle products without risking awakening latent allergies in the body or mind. Many natural cosmetics products appeal to the female audience, but men also feel the need to take good care of themselves. And even if organic food stores and health food stores offer enough brands to care for the man, today we want to focus on the sensitive topic of shaving and how MANN can mix its own cosmetics together.
There are many reasons for men to make their shaving cream themselves
Many men suffer from problematic and very sensitive facial skin and can not tolerate traditional facial care products that can be bought in the store. For this reason, we offer today a healthy recipe, which you can prepare alone and from home well by hand.
Sensitive skin? Then rather make the shaving cream yourself
How to make shaving cream yourself is the question of what we would like to look for now! Men who have problem skin may prefer to suffer instead of taking something into their own hands. But maybe there are women who like to prepare a tender and nourishing shaving cream for their man, who suffers from skin irritation. The pure skin reveals a lot about the health of humans, so it is worthwhile to take care of those with good oils.
From essential and basic oils you can prepare healthy and gentle products yourself
For the homemade shaving cream you need:
-2/3 cup organic coconut oil (which nourishes and soothes dry and irritated skin)
-2/3 cup organic organic shea butter
-2 tbsp olives or grapeseed oil (good quality is desired)
-2 tablespoons of liquid olive oil soap
-10-20 drops of lavender or frankincense oil (Essential oils are expensive! Never buy them cheaply without checking their origin.
If you have all the ingredients and equipment ready, we can start with the implementation
The healthy properties of coconut oil have been a hot topic in recent years
Shea butter provides the skin with vitamin E, which makes it smooth and supple
Any liquid (prefer to buy in the pharmacy or health food store) soap with olive oil you can take for this recipe
Frankincense has a soothing and antibacterial effect and is rightly called “The Queen of Oils”
In addition to rose oil you can boldly use lavender in your home cosmetics
Grape seed oil is a big enemy of facial wrinkles and can be perfectly applied as a massage oil
To implement:
Take a small saucepan and melt the coconut oil and shea butter in a waterbath on a low flame while stirring constantly. Add the olive or grapeseed oil and stir until you get a homogeneous mass. Then remove the pot from the heat and pour the mixture into a medium bowl. The next step is to do the mixture in the fridge until it has hardened and solidified.
Take the scents and the consistency of the natural products intensively and start with the water bath
Bring the coconut oil and shea butter on a low flame and in a water bath to melt
Remove from the heat, put in the fridge and when the mixture has hardened, stir until creamy with a whisk or hand mixer for 3-5 minutes
After some time, take the bowl out of the fridge again and stir vigorously by hand or with the help of a hand mixer, the ingredients again about 3-5 minutes foamy together.
To this mixture add more flavoring oils and liquid soap
and stir vigorously until you are satisfied with the result
Then add the liquid soap and the aromatic oils. Stir vigorously until you get a creamy, frothy and aromatic mass! Put in beautiful containers and keep in the fridge!
The mass produced should be homogeneous and foamy
Natural oils are good and healthy, but have no really long shelf life. And because they are also expensive, we would advise you to always prepare small quantities for yourself and always fresh as possible to buy the new oils.
