Now we’ve successfully fully transitioned shampoo/conditioner and soap all in bar form I want to tackle my facial care routine next

I have very normal skin with no issues, religiously cleanse (do that with face bars already) tone and moisturise - anyone make their own toner and moisturiser? Essential oils can be good can’t they? Anyone had success with Make up remover? I don’t wear foundation just mascara and sometimes eye liner

for the makeup remover, i follow this recipe and use these pads instead of the throw away cotton ones :)

I've been making cleanser, toner and moisturisers using recipes in this book and they seem pretty good so far (one month in)...

I made my own handwash - with limited success it's kind of separated and doesn't lather as well, but will use it until its run out and then re-look at other alternatives.

For face I have a big (yes plastic) bottle of micellar water but it lasts forever and bamboo reusuable wipes - not as good as the cotton disposables but sticking with it.

Currently trialling rosehip oil as my moisturiser - its strangely a bit drying so not sure whether I'll stay with it long term or look for something else.
