Calming Antioxidant Skin Quencher

This luxuriously calming, healing moisturizer is rich in regenerative

antioxidants that counteract the damaging effects of the sun’s rays. This

botanical infusion is steeped with the advanced healing powers of green

tea and soothing comfrey combined with lavender to nurture you in mind,

body, and spirit.

YIELDS: 4 ounces

⁄ cup Green Tea–Infused Oil

⁄ cup Fresh Comfrey Oil

3 vitamin E capsules

20 drops lavender essential oil

What you will need: funnel, dark-colored 4-ounce bottle and cap

1. To Make: Use a funnel to pour the Green Tea–Infused Oil and Fresh

Comfrey Oil into a 4-ounce bottle. Pierce the vitamin E capsules and

squeeze the liquid out into the bottle, discarding the gel caps. Add lavender

essential oil. Place cap on tightly and shake well to blend.

2. To Store: Store in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight. Label with

expiration date of 2 years.

3. To Use: Body oils are best applied right after bathing, while the skin is still

damp. The oils work to seal in the moisture on your skin. And the moisture

on your skin works to deliver the active botanicals deeper into the dermal

layers of your skin
