DIY Pre shave oil advice

I would like to try making my own pre shave oil but I don't know where to start. Do you have a favorite oil combo you would share?

 

There should be a few threads in this forum about DIY pre-shave oils.

 

I looked through a few pages but didn't see anything on it so I figured I'd try my own post for responses

 

I can't find my pre shave oil recipe either.

 

Sweet almond oil is pretty good. Add any essential oils that you may like.

 

Simple recipe.....
In a 4 oz bottle, combine:

• 2 parts castor oil
• 1 part olive oil
• 15+ drops Essential Oil of your choice

Another simple recipe.....

• 20ml Castor Oil
• 10ml Olive Oil
• 5ml Vitamin E Oil
• 10 drops Essential Oil (your choice)

Woodsy recipe.....

• 15ml Castor Oil
• 15ml Jojoba Oil
• 4 drops Tea Tree Oil
• 4 drops Pine Oil

 

I've used the castor oil, olive oil, and essential oil, for a couple of years. I also added a couple of drops of alcohol, to preserve it.
That said, I have found shaving without oil much better. Less messy, and the facial hairs seem to become better hydrated, which translated to closer, more comfortable shaves.

The only time I might do it now is when my face seems a bit irritated. Only happens at times when it's really hot outside.

 

Coconut oil anyone?
