Farmers Market Beauty | DIY

Hello beautiful's! I don't know about you but I love a good Farmer's Market, if you didn't know already I used to live in Prescot and on the first Saturday of every month the town used to hold a Farmer's Market to support all the local farms. I loved going along to them and it's one of the things I used to really look forward too.

Farmer's Markets are great for buying ingredients for DIY beauty at home so I thought I would share my top Farmer's Market Beauty DIY's with you all. Don't worry if you aren't able to get to a Farmer's Market because all of these ingredients can be picked up from your local fruit shop as well.

STRAWBERRY FACE & BODY SCRUB

 - 2 purred strawberries
 - 2 table spoons of plive oil
 - 1 pierced vitamin E capsule
 - 2 table spoons of sugar
Mix all of the ingredients together and apply to face and/or body.
Rise off and enjoy your newly cleaned skin!

CUCUMBER EYE GEL

 - 1/4 of a large cucumber
 - 1 oz of fresh aloe vera gel
Puree the cucumber in a blender, leaving a little pulp.
Strain the mixture into a glass bowl until you have at least 2oz of puree.
Add aloe and mix gently.
After cleansing face, apply to under eye area with a cotton ball.
You can also refrigerate this it can be used over a few days.

WATERMELON TONER

 - 2 table spoons of fresh watermelon juice
 - 1table spoons of vodka
 - 2 table spoons of witch hazel
 - 2 table spoons of distilled water
Strain watermelon juice to get rid of seeds and fruit pieces then combine ingredients in small bowl and stir well.
Pour all into clean container with tight-fitting lid.
Then pour a small amount on a clean cotton pad and apply to face.
Store in fridge between uses to retain freshness for approximately one week.

Let me know if you try any of these DIY recipes out, and how well they worked for you.
I hope you are all having a wonderful day!


With love, Alisha Valerie. x
