Almond and Avocado Oil Eye Serum

December 10, 2019

This all-natural, do-it-yourself, chemical-free eye serum makes an unexpectedly elegant gift, or an easy way to simplify (and economize!) your beauty routine at home. Manufactured eye creams and gels promise astonishing results but also can include additives and chemicals as well as a hefty price tag. Reduce puffiness and soothe the sensitive under-eye and side eye area by making your own all-natural serum. All it takes is three ingredients and a week to infuse the almond oil. Get an invigorating, aromatic boost of almond-scented coffee by rolling this serum around the eyes while you sip your morning cup of coffee.

  • Screw on the lid or cover the bowl thoroughly and place in a cool, dry space. Allow to steep for one week.
  • After a week has passed, open the jar or remove the top from the bowl and remove the bag with coffee grounds.
  • To ensure no grounds got into the oil, strain the oil through a fine mesh sieve. 
  • Once the almond oil has been strained, add 2 tablespoons avocado oil, and stir to combine.
