    3 Reasons to Make Your Own Skincare

    Creating your own natural skincare is an excellent choice for those looking to take control of their beauty routines. You know how much the team at Sage loves their making... but in case you are still on the fence, here are three compelling reasons to consider DIY'ing your products:

    1. Customisation: One of the primary benefits of DIY skincare is the ability to tailor products to your specific skin needs. Store-bought skincare products often use generic formulations that may not address individual skin concerns. By creating your own, you can select natural ingredients that cater to your skin type—whether it's oily, dry, sensitive, or combination. For example, you can choose soothing Camellia oil for sensitive skin or nourishing Shea Nut butter for dry or damaged skin. This level of customisation ensures that the products you use are effective and gentle, aligning perfectly with your unique skin requirements.

    2. Cost-Effectiveness: Homemade skincare can be significantly more economical compared to purchasing high-end commercial products. Many DIY skincare formulations use simple, natural ingredients like vegetable oils, sugar or salt and even coffee grounds, which are often less expensive than their commercial counterparts. Plus, making your own products in bulk or larger quantities can further reduce costs. Investing in a selection of quality natural ingredients and reusable containers may have an upfront cost, but over time, it’s a cost-effective way to maintain a skincare routine without continually purchasing pricey items.

    3. Ingredient Transparency: handmade skincare allows you to have full visibility into the ingredients you apply to your skin. Commercial products often contain a mix of synthetic chemicals, preservatives and fillers that might not be clearly disclosed. When you make your own skincare, you can choose high-quality, natural ingredients and avoid potentially harmful additives. This transparency not only helps in avoiding allergens or irritants but also aligns with eco-friendly practices by reducing waste and using sustainable materials.

    Here at Sage, we always encourage you to consider making your own skincare. It offers so many wonderful benefits and is a fun new skill to learn. Come along to a workshop with us and we'll make sure you walk away filled with confidence and enthusiasm!
