ok, I just had a thought that might make this easier for me...I am gonna try using a lotion base and add the butter , fragrance , dry flo, and a pinch of germall plus liquid. and see how that turns out. I would feel better using a lotion base that has been tested for sale than test stip testing my self. Although I will still test it to be sure nothing grows. Thanks so much for the idea. gonna give this a try today and I think I am gonna use a combo of cb, fco co, in place of the avacado butter.
