Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Equipment

  • 1 50ml Dropper Bottle (1.7oz)

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup dried violets
  • 1/2 cup jojoba oil
  • 1 TBSP sea buckthorn oil
  • 1 TBSP vitamin e oil

Instructions
 

  • Combine All Ingredients. Place the violets, jojoba oil, sea buckthorn oil, and vitamin E oil into a clean jar. Make sure your jar is completely dry to avoid introducing any moisture.
  • Seal & Store. Screw the lid on tightly, then store the jar in a cool, dark place for about 6 weeks for a slow infusion. Give it a gentle shake every few days to redistribute the petals and oils.
  • Strain & Transfer. After 6 weeks, strain the oil through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove the plant material. Discard the petals and funnel your infused oil into a dropper or pump bottle.
  • Application. Each morning (or whenever you cleanse your face), warm a few drops of this serum between your fingertips and gently massage it into slightly damp skin. The serum should absorb quickly, leaving a subtle glow behind.

Notes

Note: Keep your infused serum in a cool, dark space. It can last up to 12 months with proper handling and storage.
