    Hm. I appreciate you trying to give us a moisturizer, but this seems more like a facial mask than something you could leave on. I mean, strawberries on your face? The oils alone are moisturizing, the strawberries seem like they would make your face sticky and full of seeds. Also, it’s “recipe” not “recipee” – please use a spell checker.

  2. Thanks for your comment Diana.
    This is actually a moisturizer/makeup remover and it works great. Feel free to try it, if not, that’s alright too :)

    And we apologize for the misspelling…it was an obvious typo! Hope that didn’t bother you tooo much!

  3. I like the recipe. I’m all about homemade because its all natural. Also the inclusion of coconut oil is perfect, because it is a proven skin softener. Strawberry is well known as an exfoliant, and coupled with the oil, the stickiness not a factor.
