What is your recipe? We can help you troubleshoot.

1 oz. calendula infusion
1 1/2 oz. comfrey infusion
1/2 oz.Vitamin E oil
1 oz. Aloe vera gel
1/4 t. Vitamin C crystals

Pour into bottle and shake.

Shake before using.

that's a very unusual formula. where are your preservatives and emulsifiers?

just to add - you need different ingredients for a successful formula. you might consider brambleberry's lotion kit - take a look here:



it has necessary ingredients and basic instructions, so you can get a feel for it before you try creating your own recipes.

That's how I started, with the kit. But here's a link for some info, in case you have the ingredients, just not the moolah to get the whole kit - http://www.teachsoap.com/lotion_basics.html

thank you everybody for all the advise. i did get the formula from the teachsoap website, so i do have those ingredients. but......i dont know how to put them together. the instructions. i guess i do need to get the starter kit and go from there. the "recipe" i had came from a friend and it is really like a "skin-so-soft" brand. great for nighttime to soak into the skin. i really like it for my feet.
Thank you!!! for all your help.

sabarrows83-If you can give me a couple days, I'll dig out my recipe and share. I just have some things going on this weekend which will zap my oomph, so I don't want to promise too soon! But it's really easy, as long as you remember to spray alcohol (to kill germies on your mixing utensils) on everything.
