Night Face Cream – Recipe

Here are the ingredients that you will need for this special cream:

– 1 apple

– ½ cup of olive oil

– ½ cup of rose water

Preparation

Cut the apple in 2 halves and take out the seeds. Cut it in small pieces and mix them in a blender with the olive oil. Mix well until you get a smooth and thick paste. Put the mixture in a pot and warm it in a water bath (put the pot in a bigger pot filled with water). Leave it for a couple of minutes and after that take it off the heat. Wait until it has cooled down and add the rose water. Put the cream in a container with a lid and keep in the fridge for no more than 6 days.

Application

Wash your face and neck with water and tap it dry. Apply the apple cream on your face. Use your fingers and massage gently in circular motions. Let the cream cure overnight. In the morning, you can clean your face with lukewarm water.

If you want this cream to be more powerful, you can add 1 teaspoon of Vitamin E oil or 1 teaspoon of honey. Both of them are beneficial to maintain the skin moisturized. These ingredients are also useful for eliminating blemishes and regenerating the skin cells.

Effects and Benefits

Apples are rich in vitamins A, B and C, antioxidants, malic acid and beta-carotene. All these nutrients will help you maintain a healthy and young looking skin.

The malic acid exfoliates the skin and maintains it clean and smooth. Moreover, the antioxidants in the apples will leave your skin younger and shinier.

The olive oil and the rose water are useful in improving the skin shade. They hydrate the skin, calm the irritations and acne, reduce pigmentation and treat dryness.

Rose water will maintain the proper pH level of the skin, will heal scars, regenerate the skin tissues and revitalize the aged skin. This ingredient also comes with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and an extremely nice perfume. Rose water is neutral and can be used for every skin type.
