In order to make the mixture, you will combine Witch Hazel and vitamin E with lavender, cypress, and geranium essential oils. Once you pour it into your bottle, you will have a toner that is great for your skin and is made with all basic ingredients!

DIY Makeup Remover

If you have sensitive skin, makeup removers can be tough to purchase at the store because they are often irritating. Making your own DIY makeup remover is a great way to keep your skin soothed and also save money!

You will not have to worry about this mixture irritating your sensitive skin because you know all of the ingredients that are in it!

Regardless of the DIY recipe you try incorporating into your skincare routine, essential oils are a great addition because they are safe for sensitive skin and have many benefits for your skin! This is also a great way to swap out products that you are currently using that may contain harmful chemicals or currently be irritating your skin.
