All the ingredients can be found at home or purchased at a supermarket. They are completely natural, making the advantages of using them endless.

• Small container for the final product

Mix all the products in a bowl and stir them well. Consider heating the coconut oil in the microwave for 20 seconds prior to mixing to make things easier. Pour the product into a small container and remember to shake the bottle before applying. 

2. This makeup remover is used for makeup that is difficult to take off. It also moisturizes skin without leaving it greasy. 

• 1 teaspoon of castor oil

Just as the previous recipe, mix the castor oil with rose water in a bowl and pour the product into a small container. While this recipe is the easiest, the ingredients may not be found at home.
