Hemp Seed Face Polish With Green Tea & Vitamin E

Hemp Seed Face Polish With Green Tea & Vitamin E

 I have developed several 'facial grain' recipes for

 my husband. This simple one is by far his favorite. The Hempseed flour contributes a smooth exfoliating texture with the benefits of essential fatty acids. Green Tea & vitamin e are fabulous antioxidants, and oat flour a soothing cleanser. The essential oils lend a fresh, woodsy fragrance, suitable for oily or combination skin.

Blending Procedure:

Place the oat flour and hempseed flour in a clean bowl.

Using a small stainless steel whisk, mix well.

Break open the green tea bags and add the the green tea to the flours and mix well.

Add the vitamin E and mix well.

Add the essential oils, one by one, stirring well after each.

Transfer to a clean air-tight container. Let the mixture sit for 3-5 days before using.

To use, use a clean spoon (a small wooden one works well) to scoop about a quarter size amount into the palm of your hand. Mix with enough water, herbal tea or hydrosol to make a smooth paste. Massage gently over face and neck. Rinse well. Follow with a splash of herbal after shave and moisturizer. If water is introduced into the product container, bacterial growth could result, so be sure to scoop product out with a dry hand or utensil. Do not let water get into the product container.
