Using a Skin Cream Starter Base
We offer a great skin cream starter base that you can use as a foundation for making your own skin creams and lotions. Simply add your choice of natural oils, extracts, floral waters, or however you'd like to customize your cream to create a unique, high quality skin cream or lotion.
Here are some great skin cream and lotion recipes to give you some ideas.
How to make your own skin cream or lotion:
1. Mix all lotion / skin cream ingredients at room temperature until they are nice and smooth.
Helpful Tip: Thin your skin cream by adding more floral water, or thicken by adding more starter base.
2. Fragrance your skin cream with body care fragrance oils or essential oils if desired - we have an extensive selection of scents for your lotions and creams.
3. Package your lotion or cream. We have many glass and plastic bottles to choose from - see our packaging menu on the left!
