Dry skin often feels tight and lacks essential hydration. As someone who's tested countless natural skincare recipes, I've crafted this simple homemade lotion to deeply nourish and pamper dry skin.
While it didn't suit my combination skin overall—leaving my T-zone a bit oily—it worked wonders on my drier areas, restoring elasticity and comfort. The standout ingredient, organic carrot oil, adds a radiant glow and preps skin for tanning.
Easy to make with ingredients from organic stores, this lotion is gentle enough for the delicate eye area since it contains no essential oils.
Healthy Glow Moisturizing Lotion for Dry Skin
- 200 ml spring or filtered water
- 7 or 8 dried chamomile flower buds
- 10 ml organic carrot oil
- 5 ml jojoba oil
- Utensils: saucepan, glass bottle, jam jar, funnel, gauze
1. Sterilize all utensils by boiling them for 5 minutes.
2. Wash your hands thoroughly.
3. Boil the water and add chamomile flowers.
4. Cover and let cool.
5. Strain the infusion into the jam jar, covering with gauze.
6. Funnel the infusion into the bottle, then add 10 ml carrot oil and 5 ml jojoba oil.

Chamomile soothes and regenerates the skin. Carrot oil brightens, refines texture, and prepares for even tanning with its pleasant scent. Jojoba oil rehydrates and softens dry skin effectively.
