(22)After having suffered at the hands of pollution and stress all through the day, your skin deserves some care and pampering at night. Here’s a natural, homemade apple night cream recipe to nourish and revitalize your skin.
Apples are rich in vitamins A, B and C, as well as beta-carotene, malic acid and antioxidants. These nutrients help maintain healthy and younger-looking skin.
Malic acid, being an alpha hydroxy acid, is considered good for maintaining soft and smooth skin because of its exfoliating properties. The antioxidants present in apples also promote radiant and rejuvenated skin.
This night cream also includes extra-virgin olive oil and rose water. Both olive oil and rose water help improve skin tone and reduce pigmentation.
Olive oil also works as a natural skin moisturizer and delays the effects of aging on skin due to its healthy fats and antioxidants.
Rose water is a great beauty aid as it calms acne, maintains the skin’s pH balance, heals scars, regenerates skin tissues and revitalizes aging skin. It has soothing, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, not to mention the pleasing smell.
Things you will need:
- 1 apple
- Olive oil
- Rose water
- A blender
- A double boiler
- A knife
- A bowl
- A mixing spoon
- A plastic or glass container
Steps
1. Cut an apple into two halves.
2. Remove the seeds.
3. Chop the apple into small pieces.
4. Toss the pieces into a blender and add one-half cup of olive oil.
5. Turn on the blender for about five to seven minutes until the mixture has a smooth and thick consistency.
6. Pour the mixture into a double boiler and heat it for a few minutes until it is warm.
7. Remove the mixture from the double boiler and allow it to cool. Then, mix in one-half cup of rose water.
8. Finally, store it in a sterile container.
You now have your own homemade apple night cream. You can store it in the refrigerator for four to six days, using a portion of it daily.
its look very affactive i wish to use n luk beautiful,,,,
Nice cream thanks a lot
thanks. but when we add honey? aft boiling or before
after boiling
where I can store this crem…. can I stored this mixture in fridge
yup, store it in the fridge
Can we use the cooking olive oil in this
make sure it’s pure olive oil
what if i dont have rose water what can i replace on it?
I used a healing toner (natural) that I purchased online. I think any floral water/astringent would work but rose water is highly prized for it’s beauty uses.
is this suitable for all skin type
It worked on me…:)
It’s look nice
Wow!! I will try it…..
Do you go to sleep with this on or do I only use it for some time and wash my face before bed time? It looks like it will be messy in bed. Can I use coconut oil instead or mix them both since coconut oil is so good for out skin?
Any oil will work but since the apple is tacky/sticky I don’t suggest castor oil. Squalane oil is fancy olive oil. That’s what I used. You can find it on Amazon fairly cheaply. I paid $20 w/ shipping for 2 oz.
Wow l tried one of d remedy it works wonder. Tnx alot
Very nice nd ot is easy to make lets hppe its work well I vl try definitely
I followed this recipe EXACTLY as written and it came out VERY runny and sticky (assuming this is the apple). I suggest an apple and a half and not a great option for acne. While it’s very true that apple itself can be a great option as a mask, I don’t suggest it as a cream.
after boiling we have to use honey directly when we are applying on face or we can mix honey and store it
I choose to use this its very natural…avoiding to buy expensives creams . Thanks home made remedies. 🙂 :* ♡♡♡ i love it
Should we wash our face after using it or leave as it is..
