Raid Your Kitchen for Green Beauty DIYs

For eco-conscious glamour girls, less is more. Namely, the less synthetic perfumes, oils, dyes or fillers in cosmetics and beauty treatments, the better. At L’eclisse, our products are formulated to take advantage of earth’s finest minerals and botanicals, so why would we want our beauty routine to be any different?

All of these DIY beauty treatments contain minimal ingredients, and can be made with items you probably already have in your kitchen. After all, when it comes to sustainable beauty, you can’t get much greener than your local produce aisle.

Kiwi_face_mask

Get your skin glowing with a simple rejuvenating mask. Puree a kiwi, then mix it with yogurt and coconut oil. Kiwis are rich in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and alpha hydroxy acids, which help to exfoliate and smooth skin. 

green_tea_face_spray

Minimize your pores with a simple daily spritz. Steep a cup of green tea, pour it into a spray bottle, and keep it in the fridge. The antioxidants and caffeine in green tea prevent premature aging and tighten pores.

olive_oil_cuticles

Dry, ragged cuticles? Rub some olive oil into your nail area. Antioxidants like Vitamin A and Vitamin C and healthy, monounsaturated fat will leave skin moisturized and feeling softer.

lime_sugar_scrub

Cooler weather means drier skin, especially in traditional problem spots like feet, hands knees,  and elbows. Whip up a body scrub using lime pulp, olive oil and sugar. Lime is packed with Vitamin C, which helps even out skin tone and brighten complexion and sugar is a natural exfoliant.

Honeydew_Melon_Face_Mask

Looking for a gentle, natural face mask to keep that summer glow? Cut a honeydew melon into ultra thin slices and apply to your face for twenty minutes. Honeydew melons pack a punch, with a high amount of Vitamin C that leads to smoother and younger looking skin.
