mamafescandles Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 I have to ask a dumb question of course LOL. I wanted to know which site to go to for the best lotion base, that might be good to tackle ASHY SKIN. LOLI use a really good lotion base from the African Shea Butter Company http://store.africansheabuttercompany.com/index.html the base is very thick and has cocoa, shea, & mango butter. It's not oily but the moisture is awesome. This is the best lotion base I've found for really dry skin but it is soooooo thick. I tried thinning it by adding oils etc to no avail... I didn't want to add mineral oil but I did try adding shea oil and the thickness stayed. However, my customers loved it so much and didn't care about the thickness. It really can be sold in a jar more like a body cream or body butter. I have procrastinated about adding it to some shea butter an whipping it to make a body butter. I also purchase my ultra refined shea butter and shea oil from this company. Good luckHTH Mamafe Candles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, make sure you exfoliate your skin really well before you use your moisturizers, that will help quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
