Skin care routine

[mariatheresa]

Anyone here (especially ladies) have a solid skin care routine they like? Specifically preventative aging routine that doesn’t involve retinol creams

1. Raw Honey Cleanse (leave on for 15min - I do my coco oil pulling simultanously)
   (in general; your skin ph-level is around 5-6 so dont use soda, or anything soapy)
2. (optional)
   a) Skin Peeling 1x a week with coffee grind (finely grinded! please dont bruise your skin; am looking for an alternative rn for that reason)
   b) Jojoba Face Massage (am planning to add some Vit E to that next)
   c) Green tea/Chamomile/Calendula/Rosewater soaked cotton pads on sensitive areas
3. Salicylic Acid Serum
4. 10% Niacinamide Serum + 1% Zinc
5. organic, grass-fed Beef Tallow Moisturizer (+ Coco Oil, Jojoba, Lanolin/Beeswax; some essential oils maybe)
6. Lip Balm (Shea/Cacao butter + Coco oil + some Honey + some Beeswax + some dark chocolate + essentials to your likings)

& Gelatine and Coq-10 Supplementation to aid anti-age effects from within
& Occasionally Vit C + Mg during the day (dont apply shortly after B3 or Salicylic Acid!)

For my Body I usually apply a cream after showering (Shea/Cacao+Coco+Jojoba; sometimes fresh Aloe) + the occasional Vit C, E & Mg spray;
Shea butter + Essentials + a bit of baking soda is quite a efficient deodorant

Everything is DIY & my cheeks feel like a soft peach :3

I have come to believe it’s 90 percent about my gut health and metabolic health

@Nyck-Star-Gel thanks this is great!! How do you make the niacinamide and zinc serum?

[Nyck Star Gel]

@mariatheresa For 100ml you would need

• 10g niacinamide ph. eur.
• 1g zinc PCA
• ca. 85ml clean, filtered, distilled water as base
  (you could also use rosewater but that might reduce its shelf-life idk; make sure to heat it up 80°C)
• add ingredients once its cooled down, whisk & store in 30ml bottles
