Face powder at home. Simple homemade face powder

Hi all! Today I will share with you a recipe for making natural oatmeal powder at home - in all details, point by point and with photos. Since I'm pretty lazy and impatient at the same time, the recipe was chosen as the fastest and easiest - a couple of hours of work, a day of waiting, and voila! Natural product is ready. And may those who like to stand oatmeal for days in the refrigerator forgive me ... I think that you can do without it :)
As the result of my efforts showed, I did not fail with the recipe, because the powder turned out to be excellent!

My skin is in love with oatmeal - I have it in my kitchen and bathroom. Oatmeal cleanses the body from the inside, making the skin clean and beautiful (when used internally), and nourishes it when used externally in the form of masks and scrubs.

How else to apply such a valuable and useful product, and even with benefit? Make oatmeal powder!
In general, I very rarely use powder, because I do not like to clog pores, and there is no special need. But purchased powder is one thing, and homemade, natural powder is a completely different matter. Not only will it not harm, but on the contrary, it will nourish the skin and protect it.
So enough words - it's time to act!

I advise you to start with a small amount - I took 4 tablespoons of oatmeal.
Further, it all depends on what kitchen device you have available: a coffee grinder or a blender. Let's start with the blender method, as I did.

So, we take 4 tbsp. tablespoons of oatmeal and pour into a container in which we will grind the oatmeal with a blender. We fill it all with cool filtered water (spring, or boiled ... any, except for the one that flows directly from the tap - you yourself know what kind of water we have). For 4 st. spoons of oatmeal I took 0.5 liters of water.

Immerse the blender in water with oatmeal and well grind oatmeal. This should take a few minutes. Since we need to get the smallest powder, there is no hurry here!
An alternative for those with a coffee grinder: Pour the oatmeal into a coffee grinder and grind, then pour the powder into a container of water and mix.
The result in both cases will be the same - a cloudy white liquid.

Now leave it for half an hour to separate the precipitate:

Carefully pour the white water into a new container, and fill the sediment again with water. After another half an hour, drain the white water again, adding it to the first. We don’t need the sediment anymore - now it can be used as a light body scrub! But back to our sheep, our powder.
So far, this cloudy water looks more like milk than something that will soon become the most useful natural powder. But a little more patience!

We take a strainer and paper napkin. I took a paper handkerchief - at first I started filtering as is, through all three layers. Very quickly it dawned on me that nothing would come of it, tk. it does not let water through at all, and I divided it into layers. Through one layer it filters perfectly :)

We spread our layered handkerchief or paper napkin on a strainer, place the strainer over a plate or saucepan (so that it keeps itself, because the filtration process is very long - it lasted for me more than an hour). We pour our milk here, and go about our business.

When you return in an hour, you will see that all the water is glass, and a layer of white mass remains on the napkin - this will become powder very soon!

But it’s too early to rejoice - there is a whole day of drying of this very powder ahead. So we remove the handkerchief with powder from the strainer, carefully spread it on a shallow plate and forget about it for the whole day.
I did all this in the evening, and already in the morning I ran to check the powder: it was almost dry, but still not completely. Yes, and I had to run to work, so I left the last stage for the evening.

When everything is completely dry, carefully remove the filtered layer from the napkin - now you need to either grind it in a coffee grinder or crush it in a mortar. I used a coffee grinder and this is what happened:

It may seem that the powder is quite fine - but there are still large particles in it, so now you need to filter it with nylon:

The tension of the capron should not be too strong. Here you can see large particles that were in the powder and filtered out:

You can do this procedure with kapron again, but I stopped at once. Everything, now you can breathe a sigh of relief: our natural powder is ready!

Now my conclusions:

I am already very satisfied with the result.

Of course, this powder cannot hide redness or, let's say, bruises, but that's it. it slightly evens out the overall skin tone and refreshes the face.

It removes oily sheen very well.- although my skin does not suffer from this, it can still shine a little by the end of the day. With this powder, even by the evening there was no shine.

But most importantly, the sensations from this powder are very pleasant. It really soothes the skin!

I don't regret the time spent. Moreover, this powder will last for a very long time, and the price came out just a penny and is equal to 4 tablespoons of oatmeal :) Next time I will do it immediately 2 times more)

So I advise everyone to try it! Experiment! I hope my article helped you :)
Thank you for your attention)

  1. Alyona

    I have long wanted to do it, but my hands don’t reach, today I stumbled upon your article and again I wanted to! Thank you!)
    Just a question - if I like a light tan, will this powder make my face white? :)))

  2. Tatiana
  3. Alexandra

    Hello, I'm glad I found your site! Can you please tell me what containers do you use to store this powder (or carry it if you carry it with you), and what is the best way to apply it on the face?

  4. Bee

    And you call yourself lazy?! I make it even easier and N times faster (it all depends on the amount of powder you want). I pour 1 tsp into the coffee grinder. (No top) oatmeal or rice and start grinding. After 15-20 seconds, a dusty coating begins to appear on the lid of the coffee grinder. I continue to grind the same amount, then I stop and wait until the dust in the grinder settles a little. Then I carefully remove the lid, on which is ready-made powder, which can already be poured into a glass container. I use cereal in this way 3-4 times. When the dust on the lid stops collecting, I pour the rest into another jar - this is a gentle and natural scrub for the face and neck for every day. We repeat the process until we feel sorry for the coffee grinder (just kidding). Good luck!!!

    1. Anna Post Author

      Is the powder really fine? interesting way, thanks for the idea! I'm just running out of powder, I'll try to do it in your way now))

      1. Bee

        Small, like a store bought. Try it.

      2. Lily

        Dear Anna, first of all I thank you for the treasure healthy recipes and the generosity with which you share them! thank you so much already! more than a year I use your advice and am very happy with the results.

        So I got to the powder, tried the above method, but, alas, something did not work out. But the Bee option turned out to be easy and fast. The main secret, of course, in a coffee grinder :))) At the same time, be sure to grind in a small amount, otherwise the powder will not settle well on the lid.

        Once again, thank you for this site! Good luck and love to you! And natural beauty :)

      3. marina

        and if we have ready-made oatmeal for sale? maybe just take it?
        By the way. Are you sure the powder is safe? rice clogs pores...

      4. Taya

        The coffee grinder can go bad and, God forbid, explode. The instructions for all coffee grinders say that you can’t grind for more than 15 seconds, and then you need a rest for the unit for at least a minute.

    2. Rita

      Hello! I'm so lucky to have stumbled across this site! I've wanted to make natural powder for a long time. Thanks a lot!

    3. Julia

      Bee, thanks for the idea. I made the powder in your way in 15 minutes. Only then rubbed it through the capron to remove large particles. Everything worked out great. Before that, I did it as the author of the post, I just suffered. Napkins get wet and torn, water flows down them. The powder dried up, then I tore it off with paper. In short, I suffered for a day and a half and threw it away. It seems that the hands grow from the shoulders, and not lower, it still didn’t work out. Apparently some special talent is needed.

    4. Maria

      And oat milk from a pharmacy in powder form by any chance is not the same?

  5. Arina

    I accidentally stumbled upon this recipe and decided to make it, the cooking process seemed very interesting. Never used powder before.
    The result pleasantly surprised me - the powder really evens out the skin color, it becomes smooth both in appearance and to the touch. My sister and mother also appreciated it, now all three of us use it :)
    Thank you very much for the recipe!

  6. Catherine

    What a great guy you are! I, too, at the beginning of summer, refused ALL industrial

  7. Natalia

    Excellent article, thank you!) I use a purchased similar one (composition: jasmine flowers, fine flour, alum infusion, almond oil, wheat germ oil, water). When it ends, I will definitely try your method) After all, it turns out almost the same thing, only much more economical)

  8. Victoria

    I also used your recipe!
    The oatmeal turned out great! Now that's the only one I'll use! Thank you!

  9. Galya

    Hello. Is it possible to make some kind of hard powder out of it ???

    1. Anna Post Author

      Galya, good afternoon!
      Do you mean pressed powder? Unfortunately, I don't know of such a way.

    2. Natalia

      Actually, you can.
      It is necessary to add alcohol to the powder (namely alcohol, not vodka and not other alcohol, so that there are fewer impurities), mix to a liquid slurry, transfer to a powder box and press (compress) well with a napkin. When dry, get pressed powder.
      Thus, any broken compact powder can be reanimated, the method does not affect the properties of the product.

  10. Kate

  21. Irina

    Thank you very much for creating this site. Super!!! I'm going to go make powder. And then I have a gorgeous expensive powder, but something went acne, probably, it fits very well and clogs the pores. I decided to start doing steam baths. After the baths, a salt and soda scrub. And today I remembered about the oil. I smeared sunflower oil on my face. I like it very much. I don't like olive oil. I read about peach. I'm going to buy it. I have a question. After him, the face will not be greasy, and, accordingly, the hair that will fall on it and the pillow? And thanks for the detailed description of how to use and wash off burdock oil. I heard so much about it, but I won’t start smearing it. And I have a request for you - you can write articles about steam baths everything you know about them.

  22. Daria

    Hello! I'm just switching to natural cosmetics for the first few days ...
    How do you feel about products from the iHerb website?

    And on the topic: tomorrow I will also try to make this powder.
    And then I thought ... What if we add beetroot broth to this broth? Get blush! :)))))

  23. Elena

    Anna, thank you for such valuable and useful information on your site. I also thank the girls who share their experiences and recipes in the comments. I read this article and comments to it, got inspired and started experimenting. Here are the results.
    I decided to make powder in a dry way, i.e. crushed oatmeal in a coffee grinder - sifted through a small nylon. The rest was crushed again - sifted and so on for several approaches until I scored the right amount powder. Then she took the purchased cocoa powder (it is very fine) and sifted it too. I mixed everything in a 1: 1 ratio approximately (for darker skin, you can add more cocoa). The result was a powder with a toning effect. I did not finish the experiments on this and made eyeshadows.
    She took the coal, put it in a double-folded sheet and ground it into powder with a rolling pin, sifted it through a fine nylon. The shadows turned out to be jet black :) By mixing with sifted cocoa, I got dark brown shadows. And I just use cocoa as beige shadows. Coal + cocoa in different proportions - shades from black to beige.
    Cocoa can also be added to the lip balm according to your recipe - it turns out a light shade on the lips, and if you add more (experiment) - brown lipstick.

  24. Irina

    Wonderful powder! At first I did rice powder, but I couldn’t use it, it turned out to be somehow rough for my skin. But oatmeal powder is so tender, it lays down beautifully, smoothes, mattifies. It really helps me switch to natural care, because I have to not use foundation, and this powder is a salvation for me! Thank you, Anna!

  25. Julia

    Can you mix oatmeal with water? And pour some water too? will it work? otherwise there is no blender and coffee grinder for grinding oatmeal.

  26. Victoria

    Great step by step recipe. It’s a pity that I discovered it after I made the powder (. My first mistake is that I didn’t grind the oatmeal before pouring it with water. As a result, I didn’t dry the sediment on the battery, but roughly speaking the soaked cereals. The powder turned out all the same, I was satisfied with the result (very gentle to the touch and pleasant sensations on the face), but this recipe seems less time consuming and more efficient to me. Thank you!

  27. Victoria

    Good afternoon, Anna! Last night, having found this article, I rushed to make powder, followed it clearly on points, the only thing instead of a paper handkerchief, I took an ordinary napkin, unfolded it and it turned out 4 squares (I hope you understand :)) but it seemed to me that the napkin is quite thin, in general, in the morning, I saw on this napkin, as if some kind of plaque and brown, small remnants of oatmeal, it's a shame, where is mine for a long time waiting powder? Tell me, is there a mistake in the napkin? :(

  28. Alexandra

    Good afternoon Is it possible to use wheat flour as a powder (quite a small amount)? Will it clog pores? Will it provoke the appearance of acne? And in general, is it possible to use it like that, otherwise I came up with it :)

  29. Victoria

    Tell me, will this powder not clog pores, will acne appear?

  30. Tatiana

    Anna! Please clarify: you need to spread a new handkerchief after each portion of the liquid (ie, dry several handkerchiefs) or you filter everything through one handkerchief.

  31. Tatiana

    Thanks for the answer. Anna, do you remember what company the paper handkerchiefs were from? The fact is that the filtration process takes 1 hour for you, but for me it leaks out in 5-10 minutes (I laid a scarf without dividing it into layers, I also tried it through a paper napkin and even a paper towel) .. But the most important thing is that there is almost no sediment on the napkin. Apparently even the brand of scarves matters.

  32. Nadia

    Good evening. I did everything as in the recipe, it turned out))) in general, I thought I couldn’t handle it. Excellent powder, but I would even more even out the tone, I have White skin, but there is redness. I want to try cinnamon. Please advise where it is better to add, immediately to water or after, when I grind the dried sediment. I threw out the foundation, there is no desire to use it anymore. Thank you

  33. Lou

    I could not get. When I poured through a paper handkerchief, then everything just came out and only a raw handkerchief remained. What I did wrong I can not understand

  34. Svetlana

    And I had such a question, I constantly come across 2 different recipes: one, like yours, and the second is quite the opposite, that is, the white mass is not needed. I don't even know which one to use.

  35. Tatiana
  36. Julia

    Interesting interesting! Can I add iron oxide to this powder? Brown to make the powder beige??? I wanted to make mineo powder, but I never bought the foundation (Mika), and oatmeal powder is somewhat similar ...

  37. Tatiana

    Good afternoon
    Anna, I use oils, flour, ubtan, mineral water cubes... and now I find your site, almost my mirror image :) I am very glad to find a like-minded person.
    I use mineral makeup (primer, foundation, blush, concealer, corrector - when needed). The skin is oily in the T-zone, I use oil for matting grape seed- the skin feels great, moisturized, elastic, the pores have narrowed very significantly, cleared. There are still shortcomings - the unevenness of the skin, the pores between the eyebrows, but I understand that everything is not done so quickly.
    In general, more to the point. I use green tea powder as a primer. Often in mineral cosmetics in primers, kaolin (clay) is in 1st place, and then colored mics, titanium oxide, zinc (depending on the product). I wondered, I can’t fully find information, what do you think - is it possible to apply white powder on the face in the form of a primer (for example) in pure form or at least 1:1 with oatmeal or rice? Your opinion is interesting.

  38. Leysan

    Hello!) Thanks a lot for your article) yesterday I started making rice powder, but I like oatmeal powder, as it is much faster to make)
    This afternoon, I started the "production" of oatmeal powder ... at first everything was fine: the water was cloudy, the residue was small ... but then I got to the filtration stage, when suddenly everything went to hell! This residue didn’t exist at all, but I didn’t give up and started filtering again ... everything was repeated 5 times ... then I took 4 napkins (0.0) and started filtering again ... this time I sat until one in the morning ... and here is the result: all this mixture (obtained as a result of filtration) was smeared all over the napkin, and in terms of its amount it was ... well ... about 1/5 of the little finger ... so I am completely desperate!! And yes, in addition to napkins, I also have a handkerchief ...
    Help me please! And I really wanted to try this powder on my oily skin, which I also spoiled with purchased cosmetics T_T

  39. Feruza

    Good day, Dear Ann! For the second week I have been reading your articles, choking with admiration! Your page is just a treasure trove useful information which just turned my ideas about cosmetics in general! You are just brilliant, Anna! Most of all I was shocked that all the recommendations went through a certain experience and with what attention you treat even the smallest things. Thanks to the girls who share their experience! I wish you success! Joy and Happiness, Anechka!

  40. Elena

    Hello Anna!
    Do you think it is possible to thicken such a powder with something to use as a corrector? I have bruises under my eyes (about fruits and healthy eating I know it doesn't help :) I plan to buy a corrector under my eyes, but I really don’t want to mess with store products, especially on such delicate skin.
    Can you recommend any remedy? I will be very grateful

    1. Anna Post Author

      Elena is not sure. The texture of the powder is not so thick.

    2. Oksana

      Forgive me, Anna, I will fit into your blog.
      I don’t know about you, Elena, but try. Maybe someone else will come in handy.
      In the morning I washed my eyes - first warm, then cold water(this hardens my blood vessels and, after a month, the blackness became less noticeable). I wash my face with a microfiber cloth (there are such - find and buy - enough for 7-10 years). The napkin itself is like suede (this is important). I wash - first I get wet with a wet napkin, and then I wipe it (I wipe it easily) on upper eyelid from the nose to the temples and the circle under the eyes to the nose and slightly up to the bridge of the nose rise. Immediately return under the eyes in the opposite direction to the temples and down vertically. Asahi method - you drive the lymph at the same time. Don't push. Do this 3-5 times, the skin will turn red - it's normal! The cloth will pick up all the dirt. Use a clean area of ​​the tissue each time you go. So you remove the keratinized particles of the skin (dead layer). new skin will not wrinkle scaly often dead. Do not be afraid to stretch the skin - it's the opposite, like a morning and evening massage. In any salon, a specialist will say that before you get young skin, you need to practically remove the entire dead layer. And masks, and acids, and what they do not exfoliate ...
      I’ll confidently say, it’s nonsense that you can’t apply cream on the skin of the eyelids, depending on what you apply. It depends on what you think, how you eat and in general the spiritual state on the face is often reflected. I use wax + honey and olive oil.
      Then, immediately after washing (you finish all the shower procedures with your eyes), apply the cream and 3 times in the same directions of movement, easily “rub” it into the skin of the eyelids.
      On the cream “rubbed” as a base, apply powder with your fingers and gradually cream-powder ... alternating. Hit, don't rub. Choose the number of layers yourself. I have 3 . Do the procedure near DAYLIGHT. To not go out with "monkey" circles around the eyes.
      On poorly cleansed or dry skin, everything will fall like cracked earth.
      If the skin is too oily, the same effect (choose the dosage of oils and water-based creams).
      Somehow like this))

    3. Olga

      I had such a problem for two years. I saved myself with unrefined olive oil, for a start a spoon over the fire was brewing a little, then the oil was there and dipped cotton swabs. (Should be slightly warm) For a few minutes under the eyes. A couple of times a day. Then I prepared for the skin of the face olive oil(almost half of the total) with various vitamins plus glycerin, Castor oil etc., whatever you prefer, everything is on the eye. This was for the night instead of a cream on the face and around the eyes an hour before bedtime. And then I didn’t take it off, it doesn’t interfere with my sleep. The bruises went away very quickly. After two weeks, I stopped doing cotton wool under my eyes, and I still apply oil on my face. The skin shines, there are fewer wrinkles, I forgot about bruises :))

Before you decide if you need rice powder, you should get to know this product better.

Someone claims that rice powder has amazing healing properties and in a matter of hours eliminates acne and scars. Others argue that it clogs the pores, after which the smallest grains of rice, gaining moisture, swell and make them wider.

In fact, both statements are false.

Rice powder has no healing properties, although it is less harmful than cosmetics based on titanium dioxide. natural remedy less dry skin.

The smallest particles of rice really absorb excess sebum and maintain a mattifying effect for at least 4 hours. At the same time, rice light powder and lays down on the face with a transparent veil. Its particles do not clog into pores and do not deform them.

Rice powder is a great addition to any set. decorative cosmetics. It is transparent and therefore does not affect the tone of the face when creating a make-up. It can be used as a base product, for example, instead of foundation for everyday makeup. Rice powder will not hide serious skin imperfections, but will help visually even out its texture. In addition, this tool is great for finishing fixing makeup.

Sometimes rice powder is applied to the face after washing in the evening and left overnight. It regulates the production of sebum, due to which pores are much less clogged.

Make at home or buy?

Ready-made rice powder can be purchased at almost any cosmetic store. It is especially common in departments with natural cosmetics and luxury brands.

Its cost, as a rule, does not exceed the price of classic remedy based on titanium dioxide of the same company. Of course, it is quite difficult to find it in the collections of inexpensive mass-market cosmetics.

If you are confused by the cost of rice powder, you can cook it yourself. The cost of such a cosmetic product will not be high: to prepare 10 grams of rice powder, you will need about 3 tablespoons of rice and water.

Flaw homemade is the duration of the process. It will take about a week to prepare rice powder.

If you urgently need rice powder or you do not like to spend a lot of time on household chores, it is easier to buy a ready-made product.

DIY rice powder

Making your own rice powder can be interesting experience. Be prepared for the fact that this process will take you a lot of time and will require some patience.

Important nuances

    Before you start making powder, you need to choose the right rice. There are different recipes on the net with different recommendations. In fact, at some point you will need to bring the rice to a soft creamy state, and round-grain varieties are much better suited for this. If you don't have round grain rice, long grain will do. But the cooking process may take a little longer.

    It takes a lot of water to make rice powder. It should be boiled and cool.

    All week, during which you will be engaged in the manufacture of powder, rice should be stored in a dark, cool place. It must not be dried in the sun or in the oven, even for final stages cooking - this will affect its texture.

    Pigments can be added to the composition of homemade rice powder. If you do not have the opportunity to visit a specialty store with ingredients for making cosmetics, you can mix your regular powder with rice powder. So you get a light translucent base.

Step by step recipe

    At the first stage, you will need to rinse the rice, pour it with cool boiled water (it should completely cover it) and put it in the refrigerator. For the next 4-7 days, you will need to change the water daily. After about a week, the rice will swell enough to crumble at the slightest touch. This means you can move on to the next step.

    Drain the water from the rice and start pounding it. The result is a soft slurry. Dilute it with water. Stir lightly and wait a couple of minutes.

    Carefully drain the liquid into a separate vessel, avoiding the rice gruel.

    Repeat the procedure for grinding rice gruel in a mortar, washing it and draining the liquid into a separate vessel several times. Ideally, this should be done until you manage to grind the rice completely, but you can stop earlier.

    The liquid that accumulates in a separate vessel contains rice sediment - the future powder. It will be necessary to wait about an hour for a dense layer of sediment to form in the container.

    Carefully drain the liquid, being careful not to pour the powder along with it. When there is very little water left, strain it with a napkin. This way you will get rid of the liquid, but the powder will remain on the paper surface.
    Put a napkin with powder in a dark, cool place for another day.

    When the powder is dry, sprinkle it on Blank sheet paper and inspect for lumps. It is better to remove especially large particles, and gently break the stuck powder into powder.

If you have not been able to completely grind the rice pulp, you can use it to make a scrub. Leftovers can be used neat or mixed with avocado pulp, runny honey, or other creamy base. Use home scrub for facial skin care or to stimulate hair growth, rubbing it in before applying home masks.

You can store ready-made rice powder in empty cosmetic jars.

Although making rice powder is a hassle, the result is universal remedy for make-up and skin care.

Every woman loves powder, which helps to hide imperfections on the face, tone and improve the appearance of the skin. Makeup usually consists of a solid "foundation" that includes foundation that should not be visible on the face. The powder is also matched to the color of the skin, which should look natural. Usually powder is applied at the very end and only on certain areas of the face that have a greasy sheen. Do not apply too much powder on the face, especially if the skin is dry.

Also, when buying face powder, it is necessary to take into account the type and tone of the skin, so that when applied it looks natural, hides imperfections and emphasizes the merits.
