Facial skin is sensitive, everyone knows that. Store-bought face washes make most people’s skin very dry. Plus don’t forget that most of them contain unnecessary chemicals and a ton of artificial fragrances that worsen skin. This is why more and more people want to know how to make their own face washes and facial cleansers. Including me!

When I first started my natural skin care journey, I used stuff like oatmeal, coconut oil, baking soda and honey to cleanse my skin. But there are times when I missed a nice foaming face wash. Especially after a long night out or at work. You know the times when you come back home and you just wanna lather up with some no-hassle face wash, rinse off, pat dry, moisturize then flop onto your bed. During such late nights, I would feel so lazy to start opening the sticky honey jar, applying the stickiness, then washing it off. I felt so reluctant to use such homemade face washes that sometimes, I ended up using bar soap to wash off my face! And the whole point of using homemade face washes was to avoid chemicals in the first place!

So when I got the idea of whipping up a DIY essential oil foaming face wash, it was just gold for me! Check out the easy recipe below:
