If you want to ditch applying harsh chemicals on your skin and make a shift to homemade natural products, you are in luck. We have rounded up a few homemade DIY lotions that you can make with easily available ingredients. They make for great gift items too.

Honey + Glycerin + Lemon + Green Tea

Take a teaspoon of honey, 2 teaspoons of glycerin, 2 teaspoons of green tea and a few drops of lemon. Mix them well till they form a smooth paste. Apply it on your skin and let it sit overnight for the moisture to seep in.

Coconut Oil + Vitamin E Oil + Any Essential Oil

For whipping up this super simple DIY moisturiser, take half a cup of coconut oil, a teaspoon of Vitamin E oil and a few drops of your favourite essential oil for the aroma. You can go with lavender oil for a calming and relaxing effect or tea tree oil to keep acne away. Mix it all well and store in a glass jar.

Hibiscus Tea + Coconut Oil

For this simple two ingredient DIY moisturiser, all your need is hibiscus tea and coconut oil. Grind two tablespoons of hibiscus tea leaves to a coarse powder form and add it to a cup of coconut oil. Cover it and let it sit for a while. Using a cheesecloth, strain the oil so that the coarse tea leaves are strained well. Whip it for a minute or two and store it in a glass jar.

Aloe Vera + Argan Oil + Essential oils

This is super simple and can be stored for a long time. Take the pulp of aloe vera plant or just buy an aloe vera gel from the market. Add in half a tablespoon of argan oil and a few drops of any essential oil of your choice. Mix them together by whipping the mix for 3 minutes or so. Store in a tight jar.
