100% natural vegetable oil cleanser

There's nothing easier or quicker... Dig out a bottle of olive/walnut oil or treat yourself to some pure argan oil. Pour a dollop onto your palm, let it warm up and then massage it on with your fingertips using large, circular movements. Added plus? Massaging will give your circulation a stimulating boost! Apply the oil using a cotton pad if you're wearing waterproof eye make up. Any excess oil can be washed off with an emollient soap. Finish of with a spritz ofthermal waterfor squeaky clean skin.

100% natural honey cleansing lotion

Honey's not only great as a face mask fordry skin during winter, but also as a moisturising cleanser. Mix three tablespoons each of mineral water and milk with two tablespoons of honey. Blend until you get a smooth, uniform paste. Apply to your face, paying attention to heavily made up areas (lips, eyes...) but go gently, so that you don't irritate your skin.

100% natural sugar scrub

Sugar is perfect if you're after a gentle face scrub. Mix a tablespoon each of white sugar and vegetable oil, add a few drops of lemon or grapefruit essential oil and blend until you get a granular paste. Apply to clean, dry skin using small, circular movements, working out from the centre of your face. Rinse it off with warm water. This will get rid of dead cells and any grime (make up, pollution, smoke) that may be suffocating your skin.
