Creams and lotions -any one out there...?

Question

Does anyone have a simple recipe for a lotion or cream for a very sensitive face?

Do I heat or cook or just mix the ingredients. Please guide me.

Answer 1

It's not a lotion but..I have sensitive skin also..mix honey,a lil warm milk and oatmeal until it makes a paste(more honey than milk-but I never measure anything)put on face for 10 minutes or longer if you'd like then wash off.Your face will be incredibly smooth and dewy looking.It works I promise!

Answer 2

I use just plain Jojoba Oil, and my skin has never looked better. I wash my face with a simple cleanser that I got from my dermatologist, then tone with organic apple cider vinegar (with two crushed aspirin in it for the salicylic acid), and then I put a couple of drops of Jojoba Oil in my palm, rub my hands together, and then rub them lightly on my face. Just a very thin coat will do - you don't want your face to be oily. After all of the expensive stuff I've tried, this inexpensive regime has really made my skin look fresh, clear and dewy. If I can afford it, sometimes I'll use Emu Oil in place of the Jojoba, but that's usually quite a bit more expensive.

Answer 3

This is a good one i make, you can get all the ingredents from your local health food store.

Ingredients:
15 oz. Olive oil
2 oz. Mango butter
3.8 oz. bees wax
2 oz. Shea butter
102 oz. Water
2.5 oz. Stearic acid

Directions
There are two things I hate about lotion: 1) It takes forever to rub in and it's greasy feel. 2) It seems like you have to keep re-applying it. This lotion took a while to create. I use the olive oil because it soaks in nicely. Shea for it's natural source of vitamins A&E and known sunblock protection factor. Mango is similar to shea, but helps cut down on the greasiness. This combination is great for me to use at work! I use a pea sized amount, rub it in, and I'm good to go for a long time. No greasy feel to my hands, and I don't have to keep putting it on.
