In light of all the recent updated studies on phthalates in, oh EVERYTHING here is a homemade recipe for skin lotion that is very cheap and easy to whip up.
To begin, for a lotion base all you need is water, oil and an emulsifier. An emulsifier is simply an ingredient that blends the water and oil together. Here is the base that I begin with to make my lotion:
* ½ cup distilled water* ½ cup oil (I usually use olive, almond, macadamia nut, or grape seed)* 1 TBS liquid lecithin
You can experiment from here by adding essential oils, combining other oils; you can steep beneficial herbs into your water before you add your oil, etc. . .
