I use Shea butter (my base), not oil, well I use some oil, but very little that has been soaking in herbs....Amandahttp://www.earthstouchnaturalbeauty.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5429708874762600243.post-62086947510215406602012-02-25T00:13:15.658-05:002012-02-25T00:13:15.658-05:00I try to make this basic recipe, mixing 2 teaspoon...I try to make this basic recipe, mixing 2 teaspoons of aloe gel and 4 teaspoons of jojoba oil... I never could get the creamy mixture and as soon as I stopped mixing they start to separate... What did I do wrong? How can I make this cream? I put some of that mix in my face and feel so soft I really want to make it the right way.

My wrinkles (which were pretty few) are disappearing right before my eyes, within DAYS! WOW! I love this creation so much. Thank you so much for the basics on thoughts for people to play with and elaborate on! GREAT IDEAS and INFO! LOVE THIS!<br /> <br />I have my own business crafting Natural Mineral Makeup and wanted to incorporate an anti wrinkle cream or something of this nature for my self and for clients. I have now taken ideas from your recipe above and have tweaked it to my liking (LOVING).<br /><br />For my oils I used Shea butter as my base because I LOVE it, and used in conjunction Grape Seed oil for a slightly lighter feel (which is GREAT for your skin, as you mention). For my herbs, I used Calendula leaves along with Compfrey leaves, almost sauteing them in the oils I chose, then took the leaves out. I added Lavender Essential Oil to better the smell, and add extra healing potential.<br /><br />This is fabulous you should try playing with this too! What great ideas from a truly Talented woman.<br /><br />Thank you,<br />AmandaAmandahttp://www.earthstouchnaturalbeauty.comnoreply@blogger.com
