Carrot and Goji Facial Cleanser Truly the cream of the crop, this cleanser balances skin’s pH, removes built-up oil, and tightens pores. Carrots contain a large amount of beta-carotene, which, when entering the body, changes into vitamin A and reduces cell degeneration, slowing down the aging process. It improves the amount of collagen in the skin, helps maintain elasticity, and reduces the signs of aging. Goji berries are loaded with vitamin C and anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties that help fight the signs of aging and keep skin clean. Apple cider vinegar helps regulate skin’s pH, is antifungal, which keeps those pesky pimples at bay, and can help fade dark spots. Ingredients 3/4 cup fresh organic carrot juice 1 tablespoon dried goji berries 1/2 teaspoon raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar Preparation Soak goji berries in carrot juice for 30 minutes. Transfer softened goji berries and carrot juice into a high-power blender. Add apple cider vinegar and blend until smooth and liquid. Transfer cleanser into spray bottle or glass container with lid. Usage Wet face with warm water and dip cotton balls in cleanser. In a circular motion, cleanse face, neck, and décolleté. Splash with cool water. Apply either coconut oil or your favorite moisturizer for further hydration. Storage Store unused cleanser in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
