Avocado moisturiser?

Are you tired of using moisturizers that leave your skin feeling greasy and weighed down? Are you looking for a natural alternative that will hydrate your skin without the chemicals?

Well, look no further because we have the answer: avocado moisturizer!

Avocado is not just for guacamole anymore. This superfood is packed with vitamins and minerals that are perfect for keeping your skin healthy and glowing.

In this article, we’ll dive deeper into why avocado moisturizer is so great for your skin, how to use it properly, and even some fun facts about avocados.

What Makes Avocado So Great For Your Skin?

You may be thinking “why on earth would I put guacamole on my face?” but trust us, there’s good reason.

Avocado oil has been used in skincare products for centuries thanks to its numerous benefits:

1. Rich in antioxidants

The flesh of an avocado contains high levels of vitamin E, which helps protect against free radicals that can damage our cells, hence preventing premature aging signs such as fine lines or wrinkles.

2. Packed with vitamins

Not only does it contain Vitamin E, but also other essential vitamins like A & D which help promote cell turnover – leaving you with youthful-looking and radiant-skin!

3. Hydrates Dry Skin

One common problem many people experience with their skin is dryness; however, due to its high content of Oleic Acid found in avocados (a fatty acid), they have proven quite effective at calming dry/itchy patches thus rehydrating the epidermis.

How To Make An Easy DIY Avocado Moisturiser

Now let’s get right into how simple it is to create an amazing homemade avocado moisturizer- from the comfort of your own home, as we always recommend.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Gather your ingredients

To make your moisturiser, you’ll need an avocado and coconut oil.

That’s all! Those are the only two main ingredients necessary for your moisturizer – with optional add-ins (eg honey) that enhance its overall quality too. We won’t go into detail about them here—but feel free to spice up any recipe variations as you deem fit.

2. Prepare The Ingredients

Take a ripe avocado, cut it open & scoop out the flesh of the fruit into a bowl; mash till smooth.

Next step is stirring in at least one tablespoonful of organic unrefined coconut oil into the mashed avocado- mixing well until homogeneous.

After this process above, other fun ingredients can be added should you choose to explore new ideas: these include raw honey, beeswax or lavender essential oils as they provide additional benefits such as antibacterial properties or stress-relieving scents!

3. Apply on Your Skin

Now is when you finally apply our much-awaited magical mixture onto clean skin; spread evenly ensuring every part gets covered while patting down gently until absorbed completely.

Tip: For maximum benefits from this nature’s gift—use regularly morning and night-time after cleansing instead of commercial lotions containing sulfates that might cause harm.
