    5 BEST COLD-WEATHER BEAUTY REMEDIES

    Vida Spa's Homemade Herb Cleanser

    Ingredients (available at most natural health stores)
    1 part dried lavender flowers
    1 part dried chamomile
    1 part dried rose petals
    3 parts oat flour
    Water

    1. Mix and grind (a coffee grinder works well) the herbs together.

    2. Add oat flour and blend thoroughly.

    3. Place 1/2 tsp. of the mixture in a small bowl and mix with enough water to create a paste with a yogurt-like consistency. Warm the mixture in a small pan on medium-low heat for 5 minutes so the herbs more easily absorb the water, creating a creamier cleanser and a softer exfoliation.

    4. Massage over the skin, avoiding the eye area.

    5. Remove with a warm cloth and follow with moisturizer.
