hahaha! I bet you saw that and were like o0o0o whats in here!? and yet its some crazily bored teenager who just thought of something crazy to put hehehe.... but I do have this peppermint lotion that makes me feets feel all tingly lol..........
mmm... peppermint lotion. I should get some, but the only stuff I ever see is supposed to be for feet and is outrageously overpriced. I'm sure the foot-stuff would be fine for my arms and such, but.. so pricey.
my peppermint lotion is homemade... mum says you cant trust what the crazy people in the store/factories put in it....so its all natural....
how do you make it into a lotion? I mean, I have peppermint oil and extract (from some cooking a while ago), but how does it get changed into lotion-format?
weeeeird... I just finished off my beer and was wondering where I put that new chapstick I bought yesterday, which happens to be burt's bees beeswax lip balm (baume pour les levres... man I love French labels, yay Canada).
usually we use milk and wheat germ so its not as thick as store bought lotions, 9 times outta ten the thicker it is the more fake it is and it actually has more chemicals in it, we also use a liquid lecithin (get it from pretty much any vitamin/supplement store), oil and water as a base... ermms if you want some recipes let me know and I can post some for you!!!
I also have recipes for lipgloss and awesome facemasks and other beauty products, if your interested just let me know, and if you dont have the time/patience to make it yourself let me know and I will make you some all you'd have to do is pay me shipping because thats a pain in the bum....
Recipe #1 ½ cup distilled water ½ cup oil (I usually use olive, almond, macadamia nut, or grape seed) 1 Tbsp liquid lecithin You can adding essential oils, combining other oils; you can steep beneficial herbs into your water before you add your oil, etc........ Blend all ingredients in the blender either on whip or cream. You will have a nice creamy firm lotion. Add more water to make a lighter lotion. Store in the refrigerator!!! AND DONT FORGET TO SHAKE before use! This is an example of one that I just did earlier today ( I have eczema and this totally helps!) ½ cup distilled water ½ cup olive oil 1 Tbsp liquid lecithin 6-8 drops of geranium oil 2-4 drops Myrrh oil 1-2 open capsules of Vitamin E oil Recipe #2 1 cup dried chamomile 4 tablespoons honey 1 cup milk 8 teaspoons wheat germ Leave chamomile in milk for a few hours. Strain, keeping liquid. Add honey and wheat germ to liquid mixture. Blend well. Place in a bottle. Refrigerate any used portions. Keeps up to a week....... ~~~~~~ ermmmms those are two lotion recipes... if your curious about anything else just let me know....
Lip-gloss Recipe: 1/4 cup and 2 teaspoons sweet almond oil 4 tablespoons grated beaswax 1 tablespoon honey 6 capsules pure vitamin e oil 1/4 teaspoon cocoa butter 2/3 drops essential oil ( I use peppermint) mix it up and scoop the goop into little 1/2 ounce tins... I get mine from like dollar bazzar/walmart or any craft store will work....its fun to make n I think it smells pretty good too, plus you KNOW whats in it...
PS if you try these... make sure you let me know what you think!!!!!!!!!! and even if ya dont and you have a comment go ahead =o)
