JOJOBA-GRAPEFRUIT NIGHTTIME BODY MOISTURIZER SMOOTHS DRY SKIN |
HOW IT WORKS: Grapefruit is a source of AHAs, while jojoba oil lubricates the skin and keeps it smooth. |
| WHAT'S IN IT: 3 tablespoons jojoba oil 3 drops grapefruit essential oil 1 grapefruit (or about 1/2 cup of peel) |
| HOW TO MAKE IT: Combine the oils and set aside. Next, remove the yellow skin of the grapefruit with a vegetable peeler, avoiding the white pith underneath. Toss the peel into the oil mixture until it is coated. Set it aside to infuse for at least 24 hours. Remove peel, squeezing it against a spoon to retain as much oil as possible and discard. Por the mixture into a storage container. |
|
| HOW TO USE IT: This refreshing body moisturizer works while you sleep. Be sure to wash it all off in the morning, however, because, like other citruses, grapefruit is a photosensitizer that can cause skin to discolor in the sun. |
