Delicious cosmetic recipes to be stored in glass containers

Delicious cosmetic recipes to be stored in glass containers

26/10/2017

For those with a sweet tooth winter is the season of sweets par excellence, as they are the best remedy to sweeten our mood when first cold arrive. But delicious ingredients are also good allies for our beauty. So let's learn how to take care of our skin with the beneficial properties of these natural ingredients and how to prepare simple cosmetic recipes to be stored in glass containers

Exfoliating and moisturizing face mask with banana, honey and chocolate

While exaggerating in eating chocolate is not recommended if you want to keep fit, there is a guilt-free way to not relinquish its unmistakable aroma and to exploit its beneficial properties for skin. Chocolate, as well as cocoa, is rich in flavonoids and polyphenols, that are naturally occurring antioxidant which help protect our body against free radical damages. Thanks to these beneficial properties, cocoa is an excellent ally to fight skin aging and get a smooth and luminous complexion. Our advice? An exfoliating and moisturizing banana and cocoa face mask. The ingredients are:

  • a banana
  • 3 dark chocolate squares
  • 3 tablespoons of cocoa
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
Start crushing a ripe banana until it is melted, add cocoa and honey, then mix all the ingredients to get a homogeneous compound. For a more delicious and fragrant mask you can add melted dark chocolate and incorporate it into the mixture. Finally add brown sugar. This face mask should be applied and left on for 10-15 minutes. Then you can rinse it with warm water massaging with circular movements. In this way, the brown sugar will have a gentle exfoliating effect on your skin. The Stocksmetic 50 ml Luxe glass jar is the perfect solution to preserve the excess product and use it for a second application.

Coconut and cocoa butter hand cream 

If you want to keep the skin of your hands nourished and moisturized even in winter, you can try this recipe for a nutritive and emollient hand cream based on:

  • 7 spoons of cocoa butter
  • 7 tablespoons of jojoba oil
  • 3 tablespoons of beeswax
  • 3 tablespoons of coconut oil
  • 2-3 drops of your favourite essential oil

Let's melt cocoa butter, beeswax and all the oils over a low heat, carefully mixing all the ingredients with a wooden spoon. Once the mixture is smooth and uniform, remove from the heat and continue blending for a few minutes. Then add your favourite essential oil. Mint or citrus essential oils are perfect for a fresh and energetic cream, while the most sensitive skins require the soothing effect of chamomile essential oil. The ingredients of this hand cream create a natural defence that restore elasticity and hydration even to the skin most stressed by early colds. For a better effect apply this hand cream at night before bedtime and store it in Stocksmetic glass containers like the elegant 100 ml Heavy glass bottle.

The ingredients for this simple but super-delicious recipe are:

  • 50 grams of brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 4-5 drops of vanilla essential oil.
Mix all the ingredients until you get an uniform compound. After moistening your face skin, apply the scrub with circular movements, leave on for 10 minutes and then rinse with warm water. The combined effect of brown sugar, oil and honey will give you a soft, gently exfoliated and hydrated skin. Keep the excess product in practical glass containers such as the 100 ml Heavy frosted glass jar.

Nourishing honey and avocado mask for dry hair

The last remedy we want to suggest is specific for hair stressed by cold, smog and humidity. In order to restore the natural hair strength and elasticity you can combine:

  • the pulp of half an avocado
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon of sweet almond oil
  • 1 teaspoon of honey

Let's start by mashing the pulp of half an avocado until you get a homogeneous mixture. Avocado is an excellent fruit, rich in protein, mineral salts and vitamins with antioxidant properties. It is also a great source of natural fats and therefore an ideal remedy for nourishing dry and dull hair. Mix the egg yolk, honey and sweet almond oil, and with the help of a comb put the mask on your hair, especially on the lengths. After leaving it on for 10-15 minutes, procede with your shampoo and then rinse. We can use this mask once a week and store it in glass containers such as the 50 ml Heavy clear glass jar.
