Are you suffering from dry, sensitive skin this winter?
Remember to drink lots of water and eat foods rich in Omega 3’s to nourish your skin from the inside.
As for nourishing your skin from the outside…Why not try these gorgeous homemade treatments to deliver some much needed moisturise your skin with added extra benefits…
Let’s look at a nourishing face masque and a face scrub.
Both these treatments contain Hemp Seed Oil so let’s get this straight first of all – Using Hemp seed oil WILL NOT GET YOU HIGH.
It is, however – AMAZING for the skin! Particularly people who suffer from inflammatory symptoms of the skin such as Eczema or Acne. It is a great natural moisturiser, even people with normal skin will see the benefits as it helps lock in that much needed hydration and is full of natural proteins which help improve the overall functioning of the skin. Yay!
Remember whenever you use a face treatment, always apply it to clean skin using clean hands and rinse off using warm water (NEVER hot!)
