How to make facial moisturizer at home

Moisturizing cream is a must-have attribute of daily care for every woman. The opinion that oily skin does not need to be moisturized turns out to be wrong. Oily skin reacts to an internal lack of moisture by increasing the production of sebum, and this phenomenon can hardly be called pleasant. Therefore, there are separate recipes for caring and moisturizing products for oily skin. Let's look at them, as well as algorithms for creating creams for other skin types. But first, let's look at the general principles.

How to make homemade cream base

Homemade moisturizers are prepared using approximately the same algorithm. The proportions may change, additional ingredients may be added to it, but the basic idea remains.

  • The main components of the cream are an oil base, an emulsifier and a basic liquid. The base is prepared using lanolin, glycerin and vegetable oils. An emulsifier is needed so that the components of the product interact and the finished product acquires a creamy consistency. Do not use tap water as liquid for cosmetic products. Some recipes recommend using mineral water, some recommend distilled water, others are based on herbal infusions or even fresh juices. And this is the best option for a moisturizer.

  • Additional ingredients are essential oils and vitamins. They are added at the end of preparing the cream. Such components give the finished product healing properties and enhance the moisturizing effect.
  • What should be the ratio of all components? For one part base, prepare two parts water. There should be little emulsifier, 2 percent of the total volume. Additional ingredients are added in the amount of a few drops.

The algorithm for creating a cosmetic product is as follows:

  1. Mix the base components and heat them in a water bath. Keep the temperature no higher than 40 degrees, otherwise the cream can be overcooked and it will not work.
  2. When the desired temperature is almost reached, an emulsifier is added to the mixture, and then liquid. 2 more minutes. The product must be kept on fire, then we remove it.
  3. Cool the product (this is done exclusively at room temperature), add additional ingredients. Afterwards, you need to beat the product with a blender. Homemade cream is ready.

By adding certain ingredients to this base, you can give the cream the properties you need. Let's look at how moisturizing types of cosmetics are prepared.

Active phase

We have reached the most important phase. If we get the base for a cream from oils, water and an emulsifier, then by adding actives, we can give the cream additional beneficial properties: moisturizing, rejuvenating, mattifying and others. Our task today is to moisturize. Therefore, all assets will be moisturizing.

For this recipe I will use aloe vera gel, natural moisturizing factor, provitamin B5, vitamin E. Of course, there are many more moisturizing assets, I will give a small list of such cosmetic assets below. But we can't put them all in one cream. In the recipe I have those assets that I myself have been actively using for a long time. In addition, they are all universal and are also suitable for hair products: shampoos, conditioners and masks. Let's look at them in more detail.

Natural moisturizing factor (nuf)

This cosmetic asset is a whole complex of moisturizing compounds in one bottle. Experienced cream makers recommend using nouf in every cream. If we look at the composition separately, then nouf contains: sodium lactate, sodium RSA, glycine, fructose, urea, niacinamide, inositol, sodium benzoate, lactic acid.

Nuf moisturizes the upper layers of the epidermis for a long time, maintains firmness and elasticity of the skin, and helps the epidermis retain moisture inside. When using this asset on the hair, intense hydration also occurs: the hair becomes smooth, softer, and easy to comb. If you are involved in cream making, this asset should definitely be in your arsenal of ingredients.

Aloe vera gel

This is an indispensable component of all my cosmetics that contain an aqueous phase. I add aloe vera gel to all my shampoos and creams. I also use it in its pure form on burns and scratches. The gel has numerous positive properties for the skin, in addition to moisturizing:

  • Is an antiseptic
  • Contains vitamins and minerals
  • Relieves inflammation
  • Promotes healing
  • Helps compensate for moisture loss from skin
  • Soothes irritation and itching
  • Creates a protective film against harmful environmental influences
  • Excellent prevention of age spots

Provitamin B5

This active soothes the skin, prevents dehydration, makes the skin smooth and elastic. Provitamin B5 is also useful for hair: it restores, strengthens, promotes growth, makes hair shiny and smooth, without weighing it down. Products with provitamin B5 are suitable for sensitive skin, delicate areas, brittle damaged hair, hair with split ends, sensitive scalp.

Vitamin E

Used as an antioxidant in oil products and as a cosmetic active. We use vitamin E in the cream as an active ingredient. Therefore, its dosage will be greater than to protect oils from rancidity. Vitamin E reduces cellular damage and stops the action of free radicals on the skin. Helps maintain skin elasticity and hydration, improves blood microcirculation.

List of moisturizing assets

You can also use the following as moisturizing assets:

  • Hyaluronic acid
  • Plant ceramides
  • Collagen
  • Fucoslim
  • Fucosert
  • Inulin
  • Phytokeratin
  • Rice proteins
  • Silk proteins
  • Squalene
  • Urea
  • Edelweiss extract
  • Mallow extract
  • Cherry blossom extract
  • White water lily extract
  • Orchid extract
  • Cucumber extract

Olive oil cream

This product will provide not only hydration, but also nutrition, since olive oil has universal caring properties.

For the base, stock up on the following ingredients:

  • lanolin – 3 tsp;
  • beeswax – 3 tsp;
  • glycerin – 2 tsp;
  • olive oil – 4 tbsp. l.

Use sodium tetraborate, also known as borax, as an emulsifier. You can buy the product at the pharmacy.

Heat lanolin, oil and wax in a separate bowl. Remember that you do not need to overexpose the mixture and a temperature of 40 degrees will be quite enough. Heat water (distilled, 10 tbsp), glycerin and sodium tetraborate separately. Keep the mixture on the heat until the borax becomes a liquid. Then gradually introduce the second mixture into the first, constantly stirring the product with a wooden spatula. After two minutes, remove from heat and let thicken.

Advantages and disadvantages

The advantages of such a cosmetic product are expressed in the beneficial properties provided by this product. They look like this:

  • Gentle whitening of the skin, as well as removal of freckles and age spots.
  • Normalization of acid balance (pH balance).
  • Improvement of cellular structure.
  • Treatment of various skin pathologies (ulcers, acne, etc.).
  • Restoration and intensive turgor hydration.
  • Fight against age-related changes.
  • Intensive nutrition.

The only disadvantages include contraindications for homemade face cream , namely:

  • Individual intolerance to the drug.
  • Allergy to components of the composition.

Linden honey cream

You can use this product as a caring mask, or you can use it as a night cream. The result of regular use will be skin nutrition, hydration and a healthy complexion.

We prepare the base of the linden cream using the following ingredients:

  • lanolin – 1 tbsp. l.;
  • Linden honey - 1 tbsp. l.;
  • starch – 1 tsp;
  • olive oil – 2 tbsp. l.;
  • glycerin – 1 tbsp. l.

The emulsifier will be beeswax (take 2 g), and the solvent will be rose water. Add the latter in the amount of 8 tbsp. l.

Melt the base ingredients, but use everything except the starch first. When the mixture has heated to the required temperature, add starch while stirring. Then add wax and rose water. After a minute, remove the product from the heat. It is almost ready, all that remains is to cool it.

Signs of dehydration of the skin structure

Even young and healthy skin needs daily hydration, especially in the hot summer, when the epidermis constantly loses valuable moisture. You need to urgently start using moisturizers if your skin:

  • became chapped and flaky;
  • dry, resembling parchment paper;
  • cracked and constantly inflamed and red;
  • reacts poorly to temperature changes, as well as dry indoor air;
  • changed her appearance and tone.

Replenishing the level of moisture in the epidermal cells is very important, since dehydration provokes the beginning of the aging process and withering of the skin surface!

Gelatin-based cream for oily skin

This recipe uses slightly different ingredients. This is due to the characteristics of oily-prone skin. The product prepared according to this recipe will mattify the skin, moisturize and nourish.

Take for the base:

  • gelatin – 6 g (powder);
  • distilled water (half a glass, approximately 100 ml.);
  • glycerin – 70 g;
  • natural honey – 50 g.

As an additional component we use salicylic acid - 1 gram. It will remove oily shine from the skin and normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands.

Before preparing the base, fill the gelatin with water and leave it to swell. 40 minutes will pass, and you can proceed further. We put gelatin on the fire and add honey and glycerin to it. When the product is almost ready, add an additional component - salicylic acid. After cooling, whip the cream. The product is ready.

Why moisturize your facial skin and how to do it correctly

The need for moisture saturation is due to constant exposure to the external environment. In summer it is the sun's rays, in winter it is cold wind and frost. Not only the face, but also the hands suffer, but they can be protected by hiding them under clothes, and the face is always open to the winds, direct sunlight, and dust flying into it.

That is why proper care aimed at intensive hydration is vital. For this, it is best to use proven products - based on natural ingredients that do not cause allergies.

We must not forget about the basic rules for saturating the epidermis with moisture:

  • The products you use should be selected according to the needs of your skin type.
  • Every day it is necessary to cleanse the face - light foams, tonics and emulsions are ideal for this.
  • Apply a special cream morning and evening - I recommend using products based on natural extracts with the addition of hyaluronic acid and vitamins.
  • Once or twice a week, masks based on essential oils are useful, restoring the protective functions of cells, promoting intensive nutrition and regeneration.
  • How and with what can you moisturize your facial skin from the inside? Drink at least 1.5 liters of water per day. This will help you replenish fluid reserves in the body and eliminate the unpleasant feeling of tightness and dryness.

Don't forget about proper seasonal care:

  • From the sun - use products with SPF that minimize the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation.
  • For frost protection, creams that form a protective film and intensely nourish throughout the day are ideal.

Cream with essential oils for aging skin

This remedy is prepared according to a different scheme from the previously described one. We will not cook the base, but will immediately use the prepared cream. This can be any product, even intended for children's skin. You can also use expensive anti-aging products to implement the recipe.

The ingredients of this cosmetic composition are:

  • cream – 50 ml;
  • linseed oil (replace with olive oil if necessary) – 1 tsp;
  • essential oils – 10 drops.

Let's look at the last ingredient separately. You can use one essential oil, or you can take 2-3 of your choice. Rose oil, thyme, sage and orange oils are suitable for aging skin.

Place the cream in a glass jar, and then add the main oil into it first, and then add additional oil. Mix the cosmetic composition. Store it in the refrigerator.

As you can see, this recipe is extremely simple, so it won’t take up much of your time.

Homemade face cream: pros and cons

All this makes homemade face cream more popular than store-bought ones. However, handmade cosmetics are “not without sin.” Before you start making the product, you need to assess your capabilities. Will you be able to follow the recipe and dosage? Do you have enough patience? It is also important to understand the benefits of home care products and be aware of the possible risks.

6 advantages

Homemade face creams have a number of advantages compared to store-bought ones. There are six main advantages.

  1. Proven composition. You will know exactly what is included in the product, because you carry out the “casting” of the ingredients personally. As a result, you add only what you consider effective and harmless.
  2. Only “from the assembly line”. You will always use a fresh product, since the shelf life of homemade cosmetics is short. Maximum - two weeks.
  3. Required volume. You can prepare any portions of cream. Test version - in small quantities. And if it fits, you can do more at once.
  4. Affordable price. Compared to branded care products, homemade cream will cost less. Even if at the beginning you need to spend money on purchasing the necessary components, they will last a long time.
  5. Opportunity to experiment. You can easily adjust the composition of the cream by adding a little more or a little less active ingredients next time, trying additional ingredients.
  6. An original gift. Home-made cosmetics can be given to friends and family, having, of course, gained some experience in manufacturing.

6 cons

Along with the advantages, there are also certain disadvantages of homemade cosmetics. It’s worth knowing about them before you start making them. There are six main nuances.

  1. You need to find “your” formula. Does the cream recipe seem ideal, containing ingredients that are most suitable for your skin? Don't rush to rejoice. It may turn out that the cream that suits someone else is ineffective in your case. Or the ingredients do not interact well with each other. Before you find the right formula, you may have to conduct more than one experiment.
  2. Component costs. The question of costs—time, effort, money—follows from the previous paragraph. You may have to spend more than one day and many ingredients until you get the hang of it. Therefore, developing the technology can be a lengthy process and cost a pretty penny.
  3. Allergy risk. Due to the high concentration of active ingredients in the composition, the product may cause an allergic reaction.
  4. "Heavy" consistency. It is unlikely that you will be able to prepare a gentle and light face cream at home. Unlike store-bought products, your product will turn out to be quite oily, with a strong odor, and a heavier texture. It's all about the absence of industrial emulsifiers, which are used in the production of creams and give it “lightness”.
  5. Short shelf life. The short shelf life of homemade creams is not only a plus, but also a minus. It is necessary to constantly update the contents of cream tubes. And if you miss the moment, you will smear yourself with an expired product.
  6. It may not work out the first time. Cream making is a specific process that requires certain skills. You need to be prepared that the first cream will come out “lumpy”.

Preparing face cream at home can be quite an exciting experience and bring not only the expected result, but also a lot of positive emotions.
So it's worth a try. Just to begin with, it is better to choose a simple recipe - with a small number of components and simple technology. Video on the topic Basics of cream making for beginners

Homemade cream mask for dry skin type

You can use this product as a cream, or as a mask, applying a thick layer to the skin and leaving for 40 minutes. The recipe also does not require thermal preparation of the base.

The list of ingredients is:

  • butter – 1 tbsp. l.;
  • persimmon (use fruit pulp, replace with pear pulp if desired) - 1 tbsp. l.;
  • natural honey – 1 tsp;
  • yolk of 1 egg.

Preheat the honey, but if you have a liquid product, use it in its original form. Mix the ingredients and beat with a mixer. The cream is ready. Store it refrigerated, or better yet use it fresh.

General Tips

Since homemade formulations are free of preservatives and other substances that extend their shelf life, prepare a small amount of such creams and be sure to store them in the refrigerator, in a clean, washed jar with a lid.

You can extend the life of your cream by constantly scooping it with a sterile spoon and not with your fingers.

Do not forget that only clean skin can absorb compounds applied to its surface.

Before applying each new product to your face, be sure to test it on the skin of your hand to find out the reaction of the epidermis.

Any cream should be applied to previously cleansed skin.

Cucumber cream

Cucumber juice not only moisturizes, but also whitens the skin, so when choosing this recipe, take into account this property of the vegetable.

For the base take:

  • beeswax – 1 tsp;
  • almond oil – 3 tbsp. l.

Combine the products and put on fire. Prepare cucumber puree. To do this, chop the peeled vegetable. Use 3 tbsp. l. the resulting mass - add it to the base for the cream. Then add mineral water (2 tbsp) and keep on low heat with constant stirring for 30 minutes. When the mixture has cooled, whisk it.

Composition of moisturizing cosmetics

The formulas of moisturizers are based on hygroscopic agents that absorb liquid and create a moisture-retaining mantle on the surface of the skin, which softens, smoothes the skin and prevents its dehydration:

  • Low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid;
  • Vegetable glycerin;

Important(!):

hyaluronic acid (HA) is the most important component of the intercellular substance of the dermis. HA deficiency causes dryness, loss of tone, and decreased tissue turgor. With age, the synthesis of natural CG decreases (by half by the age of 50), the condition of the skin changes: wrinkles become noticeable, the skin loses its elasticity, and ptosis appears.

Other beneficial ingredients are also often found in moisturizing products:

  • Vegetable oils (fats, lipids) restore the hydrolipidic barrier and prevent moisture evaporation.
  • Antioxidants prevent oxidative stress and the negative effects of free radicals.
  • Allantoin moisturizes, softens the skin, has an anti-inflammatory effect, and promotes regeneration.
  • Vitamin B 5 (panthenol) soothes and strengthens the skin.
  • Squalene softens the skin and restores the hydrolipid mantle.
  • Linoleic acid strengthens the lipid barrier and protects collagen fibers.
  • Ceramides slow down transepidermal moisture loss.
  • Green algae extract moisturizes and strengthens the protective functions of the skin.
  • Thermal water has a pronounced calming, softening effect, strengthens the protective properties of the skin and prevents damage to the lipid barrier.
  • Emulsifiers (Glyceryl Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Glycol Stearate) and stabilizers (Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Carbomer) are the connecting link for combining all active components in one formula and do not allow them to disintegrate.

Cream with jojoba oil

This homemade product has a beneficial effect on dry skin prone to redness and flaking. Defects are eliminated, and the face acquires a well-groomed appearance with regular use of the product.

Take the following ingredients to implement the recipe:

  • water – half a glass (the water must be purified, do not take it straight from the tap);
  • jojoba oil – 5 tbsp. l.;
  • aloe juice – 1 tbsp. l.;
  • vitamin E – 10 capsules (open them with scissors when adding vitamin to the base);
  • beeswax – 2 tbsp. l.;
  • rose oil – 5 drops.

Boil the water. Add wax and jojoba oil to it and stir until the wax is completely dissolved. Add the remaining ingredients one at a time with constant stirring. Cool the product.

Tips for moisturizing your skin

Here are some tips to keep in mind when moisturizing and caring for your skin:

  • Use a gentle moisturizer daily. It is necessary to use richer moisturizers in winter to counter the dryness caused by the cold.
  • When showering or washing your face, make sure the water is warm, not hot. Hot water can strip moisture from your skin.
  • Avoid using harsh soaps or body washes as they can make your skin dry and dull.
  • Use a moisturizer that is universal for all skin types or for your specific skin type.
  • Every part of your body needs hydration. You should use moisturizing creams for your face and body.
  • Use a moisturizer with SPF or sunscreen to protect your skin from UV rays.
  • It is very important to know what suits your skin and what does not.

Cream with iris oil

If you find iris oil in cosmetic stores or pharmacies, be sure to purchase it. Based on it, you can prepare a wonderful moisturizing cream with your own hands.

Mix iris oil and aloe juice in equal proportions. This product is not prepared for future use; it is used immediately. Use a cosmetic product before bed and it will moisturize your skin and even out its color.

Preservative

Here I use the preservative cosgard. This is a synthetic preservative, but it is absolutely safe for health and is allowed in natural cosmetics. I like the fact that it is compatible with all cosmetic ingredients. The same cannot be said about all-natural preservatives. I only make cream for myself, so it is not practical for me to buy different types of preservatives for different recipes. If you have any other preservative and it is compatible with the ingredients in our recipe today, you can use it. Just follow the dosage suggested by the manufacturer - it may differ from mine.
