Clearly, I propose to your attention not so much a traditional ubtan as stylized as us, "SLAVIC UBTAN" which I mainly apply on face and body he is certainly more suitable)))
But still I can not ignore that need to be attentive to him and remember such concepts as individual allergies or skin. disease.
This natural and healthy product can be quite easy to make yourself available components. One of the important conditions - all ingredients must be properly prepared , ie have a very finely ground and carefully Screened, because I need to get a very delicate structure, which should not scrub and gently-gently cleanse and nourish.
Therefore, it is not scrub, recommended for use once a week, but a tool for every day!
And now in order - that is necessary for the preparation of the main dry mixture, the shelf life is very long, given that there is only dry ingredients
- '1 '- part of the ubtana - the basis - it may already be prepared (sifted), cereal flour or oat flour (rye, buckwheat, oats, corn, lentil, etc.);
- '1 '- the second part - the actual Herbs - selected (preferably taking into account skin type, although there is a set of universal herbs) and prepared .
- '1 '- the third part - already at the request of or the need - the various additives in the form of clay (remember "preparedness" ); been ground into pulp nuts, seeds, ground into the dust and always sifted sea \u200b\u200bsalt or coffee (for the subject combination or oily skin), coconut, dry ekastraktov.
order to find the right cast of "SLAVIC UBTANA "necessary in a number of herbs used, and plants (roots, leaves, grass) with saponin content - to give the composition of the cleaning properties of soap and texture - About 1 / 5. Saponins (from Lat. Sapo - soap) - a group of plant glycosides, aqueous solutions which form myloobraznuyu resistant foam.
Here is a list of plants containing saponins:
in the roots of the following plants: mylnyanka, Primula officinalis, licorice, violet, ginseng, horsetail, nard, horseradish (well, it's an amateur)))
in aboveground plant parts: St. John's wort, linden blossom, horsetail, calendula, violet tricolor, plantain, fenugreek.

"with ingredients you can experiment indefinitely. For Ubtana can use almost all the grass that is near at hand, then immense scope for imagination. But for a start should not be confused many components, some of your skin can give an allergic reaction, and then calculate this component will be difficult. Better to take a mixture of proven herbs, which you just do not have allergies, and new components are introduced gradually. "
