Lady Di Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Hi, all... new to the group and have a question. What is the purpose of adding cornstarch to lotion recipes. What exactly does it do? Thanks.Lady Di Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsDammit Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 It helps with greasiness I do believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheilaW Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I've heard of adding it to butters to help alleviate the greasiness but I haven't ever used it in a lotion recipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I've put a tiny bit in my lotion bars to cut the greasiness - so that folks can still turn door knobs after using the bars! Seems to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
