What is a Carrier Oil?

What is a Carrier Oil? These are all the natural cosmetic oils that you can use in your homemade recipes. They are perfect for creating homemade soap, crafting a skin-loving lotion recipe, and making many of the other kinds of cosmetic recipes. So, knowing about these oils is important for creating the types of bath and body products that you need!

What is a Carrier Oil?: Making Soap Supplies

If you are looking for a good recipe for making soap, then it is going to have some carrier oils in it. Anyone making soap from scratch knows that the carrier oils you choose can influence the quality of your bars. So, these ingredients are essential for cold process soap recipes. You can see specifics on how each oil affects the soap on our Soaping Oil Properties. Even melt and pour soap recipes can benefit by adding some carrier oils to the soap base, which is often done to make the bar more conditioning to the skin.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Lotion Making

Also, our bulk carrier oils can be used to create an amazing homemade lotion recipe. These are the oils that we include to nourish and moisturize your skin. In fact, the oils are what do the majority of the skin care in lotions. While you can use butters along with your oils, they can lead to a thicker cream or even a body butter. So, lighter lotions need key carrier oils to perform effectively!

What is a Carrier Oil?: Using Essential Oils

Although essential oils are natural, they aren’t safe to put directly on your skin. Plus, adding a carrier oil will help hold on to the aroma longer than on its own. So, it is actually beneficial for your scent to mix an essential oil with a carrier oil before applying. One of the best carrier oils for essential oils would have to be Sweet Almond Oil or Argan Oil.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Kinds of Carrier Oils

There are many different kinds of carrier oils that you can mix together for your recipes. Depending on your skin type or level of dryness, you may want to have lighter or heavier oils. Also, some oils are better for face lotions or for foot care. So, the blend of carrier oils that you want varies based on your product and its purpose.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Apricot Kernel Oil

First, we have Apricot Kernel Oil, an oil that is light and excellent for skin care. While this oil is light enough to not block pores, it is conditioning enough to be a luxurious oil for cp soap. It’s great for making lotions that don’t leave a greasy feeling and skin into the skin. Also, its perfect in soap because the oil will sink into the skin quickly to fully moisturize the skin. We’ve used this wonderful oil in many bath and body recipes, including the Chamomile Light Lotion Recipe and the Strawberries and Champagne CP Soap Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Argan Oil

Next, we have an oil that is amazing for skin care. Argan Oil is easily absorbed into the skin and won’t leave a greasy feeling on your skin. Plus, this cosmetic oil allows your skin to breathe and doesn’t block pores. In fact, this ingredient is used in many acne-fighting recipes. We included this oil in a few cosmetic recipes, like the Argan Soap Recipe and the Sour Watermelon Sugar Scrub Cubes Recipe. In our cp soap recipe, this oil increased the lather and nourished the skin beautifully.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Avocado Oil

Also, adding Avocado Oil to your homemade recipes is a perfect way to increase the moisturizing ability of your product. This cosmetic ingredient is a heavy oil that is perfect for providing dry, damaged skin with the nourishment it deserves. Plus, the high level of unsaponifiable fatty acids and high vitamin content make this skin-sensitive oil great for adding some extra conditioning power to your soap bars, which you can see in the Gentle Avocado Cold Process Soap Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Castor Oil

Another great oil for your homemade cosmetic recipes is Castor Oil. Not only is this oil thick and perfect for nourishing dry, damaged skin, but this oil is a humectant. This means that oil will pull moisture to it, which will further moisturize your skin as it absorbs. Perfect for creating lotions for feet, like the Natural Salve Recipe , which are often one of the most damaged areas of skin. While this oil would provide some conditioning properties and a rich, creamy lather, it can make your soap sticky. So, avoid adding too much of this oil in your cp soap formulations. By limiting the amount of Castor Oil, we were able use the beneficial properties without as many drawbacks, like with our St Pattys Day Cold Process Soap Recipe as well as many other soaps.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil is a great oil for skin that sinks in well and is perfect for scrub recipes like the Foaming Hibiscus Scrub Recipe. Also, this sensitive oil is perfect to add to lip balm supplies for making recipes like the Kahlua and Cream Lip Balm Recipe. For soapmaking, this oil provides a hard bar with a bubbly lather that is cleansing. Many find that adding more than 20% of this oil is drying for the skin, so some people may include more conditioning oils to the recipe or even super fat the formula to include more oils.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Grapeseed Oil

Another fantastic oil for bath and body recipes is Grapeseed Oil. This oil is perfect for cosmetic supplies because it is a lightweight moisturizer that is effective without being too greasy for the skin. So, this oil is perfect for creating lotions sensitive enough for the face, like our Natural Facial Night Cream Recipe. Also, this oil is perfect for soap-making, like our Raspberry CP Soap Recipe. This oil is moisturizing, and even anti-acne, for soap but it doesn’t leave a greasy, heavy oil feeling on the skin.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Jojoba Oil

While Jojoba Oil is technically a liquid wax, it is still fantastic for skin care products. This cosmetic ingredient is perfect for everything from lotions like our Shea Lotion with Herbal Infusion Recipe to lip care products like our Green Apple Lip Balm Recipe. In your soap recipes, this cosmetic ingredient is just as conditioning as luxury oils. But, this oil has a longer shelf life.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Lanolin Oil

Lanolin Oil is a great cosmetic oil that is wonderful for moisturizing and protecting damaged hair and dry skin. This oil contains very few saponifiables, so it maintains its conditioning properties and provides the bar with a silky feeling. So, we used this wonderful oil in our Strawberries and Champagne CP Soap Recipe. Also, you can use lanoin in a solid form, which still absorbs well and is great for protecting damaged skin. This thicker oil has all of the same beneficial properties and can even be used in soaps, like our Beard Soap Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Macadamia Nut Oil

Next, we have Macadamia Nut Oil, which is an oil that is light and perfectly absorbs into the skin. This non-greasy oil is perfect for creating lotions, like our Almond Body Cream Recipe. Also, this oil is perfect for adding conditioning properties to your soap and is even great for mature skin types. So, we included this oil in our Lavender Cold Process Soap Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Meadowfoam Seed Oil

Another great oil that skins into the skin beautifully is Meadowfoam Seed Oil. Not only does this oil work to repair damaged skin, but it has a long shelf life due to its high level of antioxidants. So, it worked wonderfully in our Honey Vanilla Lip Balm Recipe. Also, this cosmetic oil can be used to superfat soap, reduce rancidity, and increase the fragrance’s lifespan. So, this oil was a great addition to our Raspberry CP Soap Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Olive Oil

Olive Oil is often a top choice for soapers, because it is very conditioning, helps harden the bar, and creates a mild bar of soap. While some soapmakers may use only olive oil in Castille soap or mostly olive oil in Marseille soap, it makes the bar a bit slimy and barely has a lather. So, many soapers will combine this oil with others to create a great soap recipe, like in our Creamy Cocoa Craziness Cold Process Soap Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Palm Oil

Next, we have another great oil for creating soaps, which is Palm Oil. This soap making ingredient creates a hard, white bar that has a rich, creamy lather. We have used this wonderfully cleansing oil in many recipes, like our Calendula Swirl Soap Recipe and our Beer Cold Process Soap Recipe.

You may find that your cosmetic oil has solidified, this is because the melt point is slightly above room temperature. Luckily, this is easy to fix. All you have to do is set your bottle in a bowl of warm water until the oil melts again.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Pumpkin Seed Oil

Pumpkin Seed Oil is rich in vitamins and minerals, which provide great properties for the skin. This oil sinks into the skin without leaving oily residue to repair damaged skin. So, it was a perfect addition to our Pumpkin Sugar Scrub Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Rice Bran Oil

Rice Bran Oil has benefits similar to Olive Oil, so it is conditioning and great for soaps! So, we included this lovely soaping oil in our Wine Cold Process Soap Recipe as well as other great cp soap recipes. Plus, this rich, conditioning bar is perfect for both mature and sensitive skin types.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Safflower Oil

Also, we have a nourishing and skin-loving oil that is perfect for homemade products. Safflower Oil is moisturizing and nourishing for the skin, so we included it in many soap recipes and our own Hair Conditioner For Redheads Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Sesame Seed Oil

Another great cosmetic oil is Sesame Seed Oil, which is a light cosmetic ingredient full of nutrients for the skin. We include this lovely oil in recipes like our Giraffe Bubble Bars Recipe or our Beard Balm Recipe. Also, this oil can be used in cp soap to help slow trace, nourish the skin, and provide a silky lather.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Sunflower Oil

Also, Sunflower Oil works well with palm oil and olive oils to provide a rich creamy lather. Plus, this oil is very moisturizing and will provide a silky feel to the soaps. So, this is perfect for adding to our soap recipes and bath products, like our Natural Beet Root Lip Gloss Recipe.

What is a Carrier Oil?: Sweet Almond Oil

Lastly, we have a light oil that will perfectly absorb into the skin Sweet Almond Oil. So, it was a great choice for bath and body recipes like Tranquility Bath Melts Recipe or Fruity Rings Emulsified Sugar Scrub Recipe. Plus, this oil is perfect for adding some conditioning properties to your soaps.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?

A few of our customers have had the following question on their mind; Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil? So, we decided to explain each one to be able to compare them better. Essential Oils and Fragrance Oils have a variety of different scents that are able to set the perfect mood regardless of whether you need some relaxing aromatherapy or a jazzy pick me up scent.

While both are great for adding scents to you body products or homemade candles, they have a few key differences. This forces us to categorize them differently. Personally, I use and love both types of scented oils. I find that each is perfect for certain recipes. Essential Oils have a more pure, true scent that I love for facial products, while fragrance oils are more fun and unique, which is irresistible in lotions and soaps. So, let’s talk about what makes them each perfectly unique!

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Fragrance Oils

Fragrance oils are a blend of many scents that work together to create a fantastic aroma. A purfumist will create three distinct parts for a single fragrance oil. These scented oils have top notes, middle notes, and base notes. So, they will have each of these layers crafted to perfectly complement one another to make an unforgettable scent.

First, the top notes are the most volatile notes. So, these are the first notes to evaporate and reach your nose, which will provide you with the initial burst of scent. The top notes can be things like citrus oils and light, aromatic ingredients. Next, we have the middle notes of the fragrance oil and the heart of your aroma. These notes are noticeable throughout most of the fragrance oil’s life time and creates what is called the “fragrance signature”. It is typical to have notes like floral, spice or fruit tones in this layer. Lastly, we have the base notes that are the longest lasting scents of the scented oil. These notes provide rich, deep scents that last long after the top notes and middle notes have evaporated. This layer may contain notes like are musk, vanilla, resins and woods. These bursting layers blend together perfectly to create a fragrance oil that smells fantastic from beginning to end!

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Are Fragrance Oils Bad For You?

Fragrance Oils aren’t bad for you. In fact, there are fragrance oils that contain essential oils in them. For example, our Rosemary Fragrance Oil contains high levels of the rosemary essential oil. The only difference between the two is that the fragrance oil contains notes of camphoraceous eucalyptus and coriander along with the essential oil to round our the cool, crisp herbal aroma. These wonderfully herbal notes were created synthetically to enrich the overall scent of our fragrance oil and without these notes the fragrance oil wouldn’t be as delightfully complex.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Using Fragrance Oils for Bath and Body

One great way to use a complex fragrance oil is creating bath and body products that will nourish the body and leave you smelling fantastic. We used the Chocolate Raspberry Chocolate Drizzle Fragrance Oil to create our Chocolate Raspberry Drizzle Rolled Soap Recipe and it was absolutely delicious. So, you just determine how much fragrance oil can be used in your recipe and get to crafting. You can easily figure out which fragrance oils can be used on the body and their usage rate by checking the Fragrance Oil IFRA Certificate. Also, you can find our personal suggestion for usage rates in the written portion on the same page. When we determine our recommend usage rate, we take into consideration the integrity of the product. So, what do I mean by that? Some fragrance oils have very high usage rates. So, let’s say you are looking at a fragrance oil and the IFRA Certificate said you could go as high as 50% fragrance oil when using that particular scented oil. If we were to say we recommend 50% in your soap, you will end up with come very mushy soap. So, when we make these recommendations, we test to determine how much you can use and still have a beautifully well made finished product. However, you can make this judgement for yourself and test them in your own products.

Typically, you can’t use fragrance oils that have a high concentration of spice notes in large amounts. In fact, some are not safe for bath and body products. But, this is also the case with spice essential oils, like Star Anise, as well. It just means that these types of scents are more likely to irritate the skin, so it is recommended to be cautious with these scents.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Using Fragrance Oils in Scented Candles

Candle making is the perfect way to use any fragrance oil. You can use all of the Natures Garden fragrance oils to create homemade candles. While you can use all of our fragrance oils in diy candles, there are some that we would highly recommend using. Our Top Candle Scents are some of the strongest fragrance oils for candles and are sure to pick up the mood in a room. One of these strong room scenting fragrances was used to create our Spring Smelly Jelly Recipe. In this recipe the scent of a freshly blooming lilac bush from the Lilac Fragrance Oil was a strong, pure aroma that was irresistible.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Fragrance Oils Can Be Cheaper

In addition to being a more complex alternative to essential oils, fragrance oils are often cheaper than essential oils. Sometimes an essential oil is just way too expensive for daily use, so we are able to turn to a fragrance oil for an alternative. First, you can take an essential oil and combine it with other notes. This way you will still enjoy the scent of the essential oil, but you will need slightly less of the essential oil.

Another option for perfumes is creating a scent that smells just like the essential oil. This is perfect for the essential oils that would be extremely expensive. One example of this is Moonlight Tuberose Fragrance Oil. While the Tuberose Essential Oil is extremely expensive, it is possible to create a fragrance oil that contains the scent of Tuberose for much cheaper. So, you are able enjoy the aroma in this complex scent in your homemade recipes all the time!

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Essential Oils

Essential oils are created by extracting the essence of natural elements. These elements can be flowers, spices, woods, or even herbs. So, a single essential oil will have the pure scent of the natural element it came from. So, you won’t have too much complexity in the aroma of your essential oils. For example, in Cinnamon Leaf Ceylon Essential Oil you only have the scent of Cinnamon and in Apple Jack Peel the cinnamon is used as a middle note among many other scents. This means you can have the herbal scent of Lavender Essential Oil or the citrus scent of Tangerine California Essential Oil, but you won’t have any of the top notes or base notes to support your scent. While you can mix a few of these essential oils together to create an essential oil blend, these blends are not as complex as many fragrance oils. This means that essential oils are perfect for creating homemade products with a simple, elegant aroma.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Are Essential Oils Natural?

Since essential oils are taken from natural elements and not created synthetically, they are natural. Most often, essential oils are extracted by a process called steam distillation. This involves putting the flower, plant, or herb into a still containing pressurized steam. Eventually, the cell walls burst and release the essence of this natural element. After, this essence is shocked with cool water. This mixture of essential oil and water will separate over time, which allows manufacturers to harvest the essential oil. Many believe that this method is the best to produce high quality essential oil. If you would like to learn about any of the other methods for extracting essential oils, then check out our Essential Oil Class!

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Can You Use Essential Oils to Make Soap?

You absolutely can use essential oils for soap making! In fact, you can use most essential oils on the skin. So, we can include these essential oils in recipes for soap, lotion, and any other kind of bath and body product you want to create, too. We have used both the Lavandin Grosso Pure Essential Oil and the Patchouli Essential Oil to create the herbal Patchouli Infused Hair Conditioner Recipe.

You just need to make sure that you check the IFRA Certificate for your essential oil to see what the usage rate is for your recipe. The PDF for the certificate is a blue color. The PDF certificate like is on the right side of the page of the essential oil that you are looking at. Just like fragrance oils, you can only use essential oils in certain percentage rates. For example, you can only use Star Anise Essential Oil at a 0.1% rate for all bath and body recipes. Also, you can use the Bergamot Italian Rectified Essential Oil at a 5% rate for body products like soap and lotion, but only a 2% rate for nails or hair care products.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil? : Can You Add Essential Oils to a Candle?

You can use Essential Oils to create some fantastic natural candles! While these candles won’t have the complex top notes or lingering base notes, essential oils are perfect for those that enjoy pure scents. We recommend using soy wax though. Essential oils will not blend with paraffin waxes. If you have a favorite natural essential oil, then you will absolutely love a soy candle made with it. You just have to be cautious of a few things. First, you need to add your scent at a temperature below its flash point. Otherwise, the scent may evaporate immediately. You can find the flash point on the IFRA Certificate for each essential oil, which is on the page for each essential oil. You will need to test to determine the proper amount of essential oil to use. Each essential oil will be different.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: How Much Do Essential Oils Cost?

While essential oils are made from natural elements, we are a bit limited in what can be used to become an essential oil. This is because some plants contain such small amounts of essence that it can take up to a hundred pounds to create a single ounce of one an essential oil. This can lead to some essential oils being extremely expensive, like the pure Tuberose essential oil. While some can cost quite a bit, not every essential oil is super expensive. You can find about twenty seven different essential oils on the Natures Garden website at reasonable priced.

Is There a Difference Between Essential Oil and Fragrance Oil?: Luxurious Essential Oils

While Natures Garden doesn’t carry any extravagant essential oils, there are some oils out there that get pretty high in price. It was really interesting to see the essential oils on the list and how expensive they can be. If you are curious in learning about more of these expensive essential oils, then check out the Top 10 Most Expensive Essential Oils in the World by Most Luxurious List.

We hope that you have enjoyed this scent blog and have learned something about the difference between essential oils and fragrance oils.

9 Ways to Use Lanolin

Lanolin is one of those products that you don’t think about, but it is in probably some of the most popular skin care products around. It can also be found in cosmetics, first-aid salves and believe it or not in some industrial grade products such as lubricants and rust-proof coatings.

What’s amazing about this stuff is that it is all natural! It is an oil that comes from the wool of sheep and is nature’s “raincoat” for the animals. Lanolin protects them from all the elements around them; from the dampness of rain and snow to the drying effects of the sun. One of the things that I like about lanolin is that even though it is naturally derived from the wool of sheep, it in no way harms them! It is done cruelty-free! In today’s world of animal’s rights that is a pretty important factor!

Lanolin has the amazing ability to hold up to 400 times its weight in water which means, not only is it a super-moisturizer, but it locks that moisture in and will give you baby soft, supple skin. Lanolin easily absorbs into the skin, but keep in mind, a little goes a long way! We have below 9 recipes that incorporate Lanolin in the pure form that is an amazing ingredient to blend into lotions or balms, and Lanolin Oil USP Liquid which is less viscous and is wonderful for soaps and shampoos. We at Nature’s Garden hope you enjoy creating some of these for your family, friends, clients or customers! So here you are, 9 ways to use Lanolin in your creations.

9 ways to Use Lanolin Beard Balm Recipe

Our first recipe is the perfect balm for your men’s line of bath and body products. Beards and mustaches are incredibly popular among guys today. In many cases, you see more hair on their face than on their head, which may mean something, and I haven’t been able to figure it out yet. At any rate, I do have an idea that their beards can get as unruly head of hair! Beard Balm is a perfect way to tame that facial hair! With skin healthy oils and butters such as, jojoba oil, olive oil and shea butter and lanolin, their skin will be soft and moisturized as well as their beards and mustaches. Then, add in some Cedarwood Virginia Essential Oil for that woodsy, masculine scent and you will have yourself a best seller among your clients with facial hair!

9 Ways to Use Lanolin Beard Soap Recipe

The first step to having a good beard is to have a good soap. After all, beard is hair and the first step to having good hair is to have a good shampoo, right?

Our Beard Soap recipe is a good start to beard maintenance. It’s a hot process soap that uses liquid lanolin USP which has the same benefits as the lanolin that comes in the more solid form. You also have the nourishing oils and butters of jojoba, sweet almond, and cocoa butter, to just name a few. Your beard will feel soft and moisturized. Not only does this beard soap clean without stripping but it hydrates your beard, and it will do the same to your skin beneath. We used our Gurjun Balsam Essential Oil for a soft, aromatic fragrance that smells woodsy with a tiny bit of sweetness.

9 Ways to Use Lanolin Hydrating Hand Stick Recipe

Here’s a “handy” way to keep your hands moisturized and protected without the mess of carrying around a bottle of lotion. Our Hydrating Hand Stick is perfect for keeping in your purse, pocket, or even your kids’ backpacks! With skin happy ingredients like shea butter, olive oil and lanolin oil USP liquid, you can be sure your hands will always be shielded from the bitter winter elements. They will stay soft and hydrated and since the ingredients are easily absorbed into your skin you will not have that greasy feeling some hand lotions leave behind. We’ve chosen our Nectarine & Mint fragrance Oil that has a citrus scent with a light touch of mint. A perfect scent that does not become too overpowering.

9 Ways to Use Lanolin Cold Process Shaving Soap Recipe

You would be surprised at how popular shaving soap really is. In all honesty, using shampoo on your beard is a big no-no! Shampoo is designed to strip all the oils and dirt from the hair. That is all fine and good for your hair, but it’s not so fine and good for your beard. A dry beard is an itchy beard. You will want your beard moisturized and soft, with all those important skin oils still intact!

Our Cold Process Shaving Soap is the perfect gentle wash to keep your beard happy and healthy looking. We’ve used shea butter, apricot kernel oil and lanolin Oil USP liquid to help keep your beard hydrated and soft. Bentonite clay, which is not just for facial masks, gives this soap a nice glide to the lather and helps if you have oily skin. We’ve chosen our Black Ops fragrance oil that smells like the popular men’s cologne. It has a nice masculine scent of citrus followed by a nice woodsy undertone.

9 Ways to Use Lanolin Pooch Smooch Solid Shampoo Bar Recipe

Washing your dog can be such a hassle sometimes. If your dog doesn’t like bath time and you have a large puppy dog, it can start out looking like something out of a wrestling match!

Our Pooch Smooch Solid Shampoo Bar recipe won’t make getting Fido into the tub easier, but it will make the process of soaping them up a little less crazy! With these shampoo bars shaped like cute doggy bones, this is a gentle and easy soap recipe that uses our Oatmeal melt and pour soap, some skin beneficial Vitamin E and Lanolin Oil USP liquid. Your furry friend’s skin and fur will be moisturized, soft and have a nice, clean feel to their fur.

Further, we found that this stimulating essential oil is well liked for its tingling, clean feeling that works nicely with any homemade soaps. Plus, this aroma is known for reducing stress and relaxation aromatherapy benefits. So, this essential oil made a nice addition to our handmade soap recipe!

This essential oil has a lot of beneficial properties that your feet will thank you for using, due to the natural antibacterial, antimicrobial, and antiviral properties.

Plus, the strong, woodsy scent of Eucalyptus Globulus 80/82 Essential Oil is perfect in this recipe. This oil’s scent is complimented well by the addition of both peppermint oil and tea tree oil. Further, this essential oil has some additional properties to benefit your feet. This oil will add some additional antibacterial and antiviral along with some anti-inflammatory properties.

Best Essential Oil Blends Lucky Leprechaun Face Mask Recipe

Also, we created a natural facial mask that is great for your skin! The fantastic creation we are talking about is the Lucky Leprechaun Face Mask Recipe! This recipe is perfect for exfoliating and moisturizing your skin to achieve a more refreshing feeling for your face. You will love the way all these ingredients work together to care for your skin. We included quite a few different herbs that each have their own benefits for the skin. For example, French Green Clay Powder provides great nourishment for the skin and will help remove skin impurities.

Additionally, we included both the sweet fennel oil and the lavender oil in this recipe. These essential oils blend together to create a unique scent that is wonderful! The lavender is a soft, floral aroma that is perfect with the unique aroma from the sweet fennel oil peaking through. This is definitely one that you will want to try out for yourself!

We added the Sweet Fennel Essential Oil to this recipe for a few different reasons. First of all, this oil is wonderful for your skin! Sweet fennel oil has been known to have anti-aging properties. For example, it is said to slow down wrinkles by eliminating free radicals that will negatively impact your healthy cells and cause wrinkling. Plus, we have found that it would help tone and tighten your skin as well as reduce puffy eyes. Furthermore, this essential oil is known for combating acne and providing a deep pore cleaning! So, this essential oil has all the good stuff that you would want in a really good facial! Second, this oil has a unique aroma that is similar to licorice. This aroma is a perfect accent to the lavender essential oil and creates a perfect blend of scents!

Also, we used the Lavender 40/42 Essential Oil for its signature scent and the wonderful properties it provides! First, pure lavender oil is great for skin care. This oil is known to be good for preventing acne, as it would inhibit the bacteria that causes the infection. Also, this essential oil has been said to reduce wrinkles, eczema, and many inflammatory based skin conditions. Another reason why this oil was added to the facial was its scent. This natural oil has a lovely, true lavender scent that is sweet, floral, and herbal. This calming aroma is adored by many and is perfect for naturally scenting your facial!

Best Essential Oil Blends Patchouli Infused Hair Conditioner Recipe

Next, we have the wonderful and all natural Patchouli Infused Hair Conditioner Recipe! This homemade hair care recipe is perfect for replenishing your hair’s much needed moisture. This nourishment is due to the blend of ingredients we added. These ingredients include a variety of butters and oils that perfect for your hair. Trust us, these oils and butters know how to care for your hair! Plus, homemade hair products won’t contain any of the harsh chemicals that are commonplace in commercial conditioners. So, it is a win all around!

Furthermore, this recipe uses a perfect blend of Lavandin Grosso and Patchouli Essential Oils. This both provides either hair care benefits or a lovely, natural aroma for your hair! While lavandin has some amazing properties for the skin, it was mostly included in this recipe for its amazing lavender scent. Further, we added patchouli mainly for its wonderful hair care qualities.

First, we added our Patchouli Essential Oil to this hair care recipe. This oil is often described as a strong, herbal and earthy scent. This aroma is often thought to be overpowering, but we add significantly less compared to our strong, lavender aroma. Thus, this scent works out to be very lovely. Plus, this oil is essential for its hair care properties! This oil is thought to reduce dandruff and oily hair. Further, we included patchouli oil to promote hair growth! It has been said that this oil promotes healthy hair and increases the rate of growth.

Also, we included the fresh, floral Lavandin Grosso Pure Essential Oil in this recipe! This essential oil is stronger than a true lavender essential oil, but they are very similar in scent. So, this aroma is a perfect compliment to the strong earthy patchouli oil. While this scent is similar to lavender, it doesn’t have all of the same properties! For example, this oil will not soothe burns as lavender does. However, this essential oil has the same type of aroma that has been known to be perfect for boosting mood, calming you, and reducing stress levels.

Best Essential Oil Blends Stinky Feet Foot Powder Recipe

Finally, we have the Stinky Feet Foot Powder Recipe! We created this recipe with the sole purpose of eliminating foot odor. So, basically, these ingredients each have properties that will benefit your feet! For example, the essential oils both have amazing properties that are intended to get rid of the source of your odor. Since foot odor is often caused by microbes living in your shoes or on your feet, these oils will be perfect! Plus, these two essential oils smell great together. They are a clean essential oil blend that will be a huge improvement on your previous foot odor. So, kick off your shoes with pride and shout to the world, “I LOVE MY FEET!”

We included the Lime Distilled Essential Oil as it is perfect for helping eliminate odor! Our lime essential oil has properties that not only cover the scent but help destroy the microbes that are causing your feet to stink! This oil is said to have antibacterial and disinfectant properties that will protect against microbes and kill bad bacteria. So, this will help to destroy your odor at the source! Plus, this essential oil has the added bonus of smelling fresh and amazing! This pure oil has a bright, citrus aroma that is true to the fruit.

Also, we used Tea Tree Australian Essential Oil in this fantastic foot powder creation! After you add lime oil to eliminate microbes and bacteria you aren’t entirely ready to tackle foot odor. We still have fungus to worry about. Luckily, we have tea tree oil! This oil is known to eliminate fungus and help with athlete’s foot and toenail fungus! Plus, tea tree should be able to help to kill bacteria, as well. So, get ready to say goodbye to your foot odor! Additionally, this oil has a strong scent that is perfect for blending with citrus. This blend is another NG favorite!

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe

Our next recipe is one that you are going to love! An activated charcoal facial mask recipe is just what you need in your life. I have recently become obsessed with activated charcoal powder. I will say I have a love/hate relationship with the powder. I love the way it leaves my skin feeling after using it. In addition, it has wonderful detoxifying properties. The benefits of activated charcoal definitely out weight the one bad thing about it. It can get messy! However, if you are prepared ahead of time, it is easily remedied. So, just remember to cover your work area before beginning. Also, wear an apron and disposable gloves when preparing Natures Garden’s activated charcoal mask recipe.

Large Mixing Bowl

Rubber Spatula
Measuring Spoons (1 teaspoon and 1 tablespoon)
Mixing Spoon

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Prior to Starting

First, I highly suggest wearing an apron. Then, you will want to clean and sanitize your work area. Also, do the same with your utensils and packaging supplies. In addition, I recommend covering your work area. Personally, I would use wax paper or something similar. Then, when you are finished, you can simply fold up the paper and throw it away. While the benefits of activated charcoal are well worth the mess, it reminds me of glitter! It tends to be difficult to clean up and spreads like crazy.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Total Recipe Amounts

224 grams Bentonite Clay Powder
96 grams Activated Charcoal Powder
192 grams Vegetable Glycerin
32 drops Rosemary Essential Oil
24 drops Vitamin E Oil
2 tablespoons Water (per mask)

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Mixing the Powdered Ingredients

First, you will need to weigh out your activated charcoal. Set your scale to weigh in grams. Then, in a large mixing bowl, weigh out 96 grams of activated charcoal powder. We added the activated charcoal powder to this recipe due to its natural detoxifying properties.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Mixing the Powdered Ingredients

Next, add 224 grams of Bentonite Clay Powder to your bowl. Then mix together the activated charcoal powder and clay. I would suggest mixing slowly, you may end up with a mess if you try to move too quickly. We added bentonite clay powder to the mask due to its ability to clean impurities from the skin.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Adding the Oils

Once you have all of the powder combined we will add the essential oil. We chose to add rosemary essential oil to this recipe. So, go ahead and add 32 drops of rosemary essential oil using a pipette.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Adding the Oils

Then, we will be adding the vitamin E oil. Use another pipette to add 24 drops of vitamin E Oil (Tocopherol T-50). We prefer the tocopherol T-50 because it is the purest for of vitamin E. It is not tocopherol acetate that is often found in capsules. Finally, mix everything together. You want to make sure your oils a completely and evenly mixed into the powders.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Packaging Your Mask

We chose to package the powdered portion of the mask. This allows you to mix it as you need it. Also, you can have it mixed ahead of time without having to add a preservative. In addition to the powder, you will add water, and vegetable glycerin. First, let’s go ahead and package the powder. You will need eight 2 ounce black jars. Fill each jar with the activated charcoal mixture. Place a black dome lid on each jar.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Packaging Your Mask

Next, you will need eight 1 ounce black bottles. Using your scale, weigh out and add 24 grams of vegetable glycerin to each bottle. Place a black disc lid on each bottle.

Now, I know what you are thinking… Why didn’t they just put it in a couple of larger jars? Well, this is because we have many customers reselling their handmade cosmetic products. So, if you are using the mask for personal use, go ahead and use a larger jar if you would like to. You can find all of the other jars that we carry by clicking here. Then, simply mix the mask as you need it. Since you have not added the water, you will not need a preservative.

For those business owners reselling their products, there are a few benefits to packaging with one jar of powder and one bottle of vegetable glycerin. First, it is much quicker to create. It will cut down your labor time. When preparing eight 2 oz jars it took less than 10 minutes, this also included taking pictures of each step. You will not need to distill your water, add a preservative, and mix everything together. In addition, there will be much less to clean up. I wanted to also add that you will get about four masks from each jar.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe Using Your Mask

First, you will need to mix your mask. In a small bowl, add one tablespoon of the powder. Then, add one teaspoon of the vegetable glycerin. Finally, add about two tablespoons of water. Mix everything together until it is smooth. If you need to, you can always add a bit more water if you find it is not smooth. Then, spread a thin layer over your face. Allow your mask to harden completely. This should only take about 10 minutes. Finally, remove the activated charcoal mask gently using warm water and a washcloth.

Activated Charcoal Facial Mask Recipe My Results

Personally, I loved this mask. I believe it is my favorite of all that I have tried. It left my skin feeling clean and refreshed. Also, the addition of rosemary essential oil left me feeling relaxed and stress free. Now, I will say, I have what most would call normal skin. It is neither oily or dry and tends to be blemish free…most of the time anyways. So, I can’t say whether it would help with blackheads or acne like I have read in articles online. However, we would love to hear how it leaves your skin looking and feeling.
