List of Ingredients

1 Package (10.5 oz.) Tofu (soft)
2 tea bags Green Tea
3 Tbsp. Butter (Shea)
1 tsp. Flaxseed Oil
4 Tbsp. Aloe Vera Gel or gel taken from aloe vera plant (liquefy in
blender)
¼ tsp. Grapefruit Seed Extract
1 tsp. St. John’s Wort
1 tsp. Rosa Mosqueta Rose Hip Seed Oil
1 tsp. Jojoba Oil
1 tsp. Evening Primrose Oil
1 tsp. Milk Thistle Seed Extract
1 tsp. White Camellia Oil
16 drops Lavender Oil




Recipe

What it does: Actually reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and leaves skin soft and supple. The strong antioxidant properties of the green tea protect the skin from free radical damage (UV ray exposure and pollution). This terrific daytime moisturizer is light enough to wear under makeup. Most people see a remarkable improvement in their skin after just a few applications.

Preparation:
Place the aloe vera, white camellia, Rosa Mosqueta, jojoba, and evening primrose oils into a small, clean saucepan. Add the St. John’s wort flower buds, the shea butter and the milk thistle and grapefruit seed extracts. Place the green tea bags into the oils and heat mixture. As the shea butter melts and mixes with the oils, prss the tea bags with a spoon to get the green tea to combine with hot oils. When shea butter is completely melted and mixture is just about to boil, turn off heat and allow to cool. Press tea bags again with a spoon to get all the tea extract into oils. (The color should be a clear, yellowish-green.) Next, place the package of tofu into a blender and pour mixture from saucepan in. Blend until creamy and smooth, then add the flaxseed oil and the lavender oil. Continue mixing in blender until creamy. Place in a bottle or jar and keep cool until ready to use.

How to Use It:
After cleansing and toning, apply moisturizer to skin and massage gently, concentrating on extra dry or wrinkled areas of the face. This is a very rich moisturizer-use sparingly.
