DIY…Do it yourself

I have always been the 👸 of DIY. Growing up in rural Jamaica I didn’t have everything at my fingertips. If I wanted something most times I had to make it from scratch.

My skin type is mixture between oily and dry. If I’m not careful with my skin care routine or my choice of cleansing products my skin will flare up or dry up. My problem areas are my forehead nose and chin. My T-zone is my trouble zone (less touching and more TLC). I don’t know about you guys but I can’t resist a pimple! It’s so satisfying when I finally pop it. I never knew then that the best way to deal with a pimple is to treat it with loving care. I learned my lessons the hard way. I am sure you can relate to having a bunch of mini volcanoes 🌋all over your face!

So here’s a DIY for a combination type of skin.

20 g of hot boiling water
