I use coconut oil on my face after reading it on here. I only use it at night because it really is oily and i just don't have the time to let it soak in in the mornings. i keep it in my bathroom cabinet. love it!

I've been using Welcome to Living Nature products and really love their face wash, body wash, otion, and baby wash. But after reading all the great ideas here, I am going to try making a few.

Can someone clarify what type of honey is to be used for washing my face? I've been looking at honeys and see there are "UMF" and "active", etc. ????

I've been using extra virgin olive oil on my face (I have dry skin) it's been working great for months but believe it or not I still wake up with my face tight (like it needs more moisture) so I'm going to try the coconut. Can you wear it under make up?

My friend slathers her face with vaseline twice a wk. before bed. She's got great skin but I always thought your face couldn't breath under that.

this will sound totally weird, but I swear by it! Put Milk of Magnesia on your face with a cotton ball. Wait about 10 minutes. Put more on a cotton ball and run over your face. It will dissolve the previous layer. Rinse with warm water. Then I use coconut oil. Wait a minute or so. Then smooth some witch hazel on cotton ball to "lock in" the moisture. I have had amazing results. People have even asked me if I had some "work" done. Ha Ha.. I am 47 and someone guessed me to be in my early 30's!
