BEAUTY

Homemade lotion is a luxurious treat for your skin. It has many benefits over commercial lotions that you find in the store because you get to control what goes into your lotion. You also get to choose if you want it scented with essential oils or fragrance oils, or just kept unscented. Once you try it, you will be amazed at the difference it makes on your skin.

Features

Handmade lotion consists of three basic ingredients necessary for it to come together: oil, water and an emulsifier. There are certain oils, such as sweet almond oil and fractionated coconut oil, that are ideal for making lotion because they are light and not as greasy and they absorb more easily into the skin. The water should be distilled or purified water. The emulsifier most commonly used in making handmade lotion is emulsifying wax.

Effects

With carefully chosen ingredients, the effects of homemade lotion are incredible. Rather than just sitting on the surface of your skin, homemade lotion absorbs into your skin, leaving it feeling soft, smooth and moisturized. You can definitely tell a difference when you use homemade lotion on your skin.
