Nikki Reed makes her own body lotion

Los Angeles: Twilight star Nikki Reed has revealed that she makes her own homemade body lotions using five different kinds of oils to keep her skin feeling soft.

"With my skin, I like to start from scratch and really take care of it. I`m all about oils - I use a mixture of five and make my own lotions and things like that," Reed said.


"I do my own eyebrows, so I`ll double check that there are no crazy hair or anything, things like that. If I`m going out for an event, then I`ll put on more of a full face - 


I`ll put on lashes, do my brows, and put on some actual foundation. But on a regular night out that`s not for work, I am all about skin oils.


"I`m really into that process with my skin, I use like five different kinds of oils. I make all my body lotions by just mixing oils. I wash my face with soap and then use olive oil on my face," she added.


The 26-year-old, who recently married "The Vampire Diaries" star Ian Somerhalder, was taught to make her own moisturisers by her mother Cheryl, as they often couldn`t afford to buy the products when she was growing up, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"We didn`t have a lot of money growing up, so my mum taught me to put oil in water, shake it up, and when I got out of the shower, I would spray it over my entire body. 


It`s the only true beauty ritual I have," she told website Into The Gloss.
