There are so many moisturizers out there on the market today it can really confuse a girl not to mention make a huge dent in the ol' wallet. Hundreds upon hundreds of dollars are spent for just one product claiming to instantly get rid of this or that, lighten this, make that smaller............yea okay and I'm a 6 foot Brazilian model babe. (Hey it could happen.......).
All you need is some knowledge about essential oils and you'll be well on your way to softening your skin and wrinkles and brightening your skin.
Rose Hip Seed Oil is wonderful for a moisturizer and will instantly hydrate and make your skin soft as a baby's bottom. Seriously no bullshit here, just fact. What's even more appealing about this oil is that it's extremely inexpensive and will last you a while. I bought a 1 oz. bottle for under $5. I use mine for an under eye moisturizer both day and night and it works wonders and dissolves easily into the skin. For the more mature woman or someone that has extremely dry skin you can apply it all over the face. No need to mix it with another carrier oil. You could, however, add myrrh or frankincense essential oil to it as both these essential oils are excellent moisturizers.
You can also use organic coconut oil all over your face. The coconut oil will help brighten the skin and because it has antibacterial and antiviral properties those that are even acne prone can use this as a moisturizer. I buy mine at my local health food store. You can add some tea tree essential oil to the coconut oil if you are acne prone as tea tree is great for acne. Organic coconut oil will run you up to about $15 depending on what brand you choose.
