It even removes makeup. I was looking for something simple and natural, since I have skin allergies. I also wanted something that did not have chemicals. I looked at many recipes, and eventually decided to just make something that would clean my face and still moisturize my skin a little. It also works great as a body wash. Jasmine Natural Face and Body Wash Print Screen 8 oz Dr. Bonner's Baby-Mild Castille Soap 8 oz distilled water 1 TB Almond oil 20 drops jasmine fragrance 10 drops geranium essential oil Put all ingredients in a bowl and whisk together. Then pour into a pump bottle. Rinse face with water and then use 1 squirt of face wash and start washing face. I wash my face for approximately 1 minute, concentrating around my nose, chin, and forehead, then rinse well. You can use a toner after if you like to close your pores, and then moisturize. You can use my Anti-Aging Moisturizer. The link is below. Natural Anti-Aging Face Cream Link
