Dry and sensitive skin are big issues for a lot of people, particularly during the winter months. Often winter’s most harsh effects on your skin are caused by both exposure to cold air and indoor heating. And the worst thing you can do is try to relieve these problems with most of the so-called lotions and moisturizers out there on the market, many of which are made with unpronounceable ingredients that do more harm than good. One solution when it comes to finding the perfect natural skin care lotion is to make your own. Lets find out what are the best nature-made ingredients for natural skin care lotion.

1- Chamomile has many wonderful uses including skin softening properties. Buy a box of chamomile leaves and strain hot water over them to make chamomile tea or make a chamomile paste with which you can use in various beauty recipes including soaps moisturizers.

2-Wheat Germ is filled with plenty of nutrients for your skin like Vitamins E and B, as well as protein. But wheat germ also makes a fabulous natural exfoiliant thanks to the tiny granules that make it up. You can find genuine wheat germ in most grocery stores that specialize in health food, but one caveat as this product doesn’t last long if not stored in a good container that’s tucked in a refrigerator.

3- Shea Butter may be the same common ingredient found in many beauty products you already know, but by itself(or used in conjunction with other natural skin care lotion products), shea butter is indeed a powerful ingredient that is also used in products to emulsify, fade scars, cover wrinkles, and more.

4- Natural vegetable oils work as well as fats when it comes to moisturizing. Try virgin olive oil or perhaps mix some of that with other oils such as rose oil. In general, olive oil works wonders when it comes to natural moisture based products, and adding other essential oils delivers more than moisture, thus making the product seem more luxurious.
