MochaMama Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Hi LadiesI need a little help on this recipe. I am trying to get the basic feel down first before I add FO and preservative.The recipe I have so far is30% cocoa butter15% shea buttah55% sugarSoooooo, I'm still tweaking it of course, but it's sooooooo greasy! When you rub it onto dampish skin, it feels great, but it leaves a thick greasy film behind. When you rub this grease film off, the skin is soft, but that greasy film is not to be believed.So I've been eyeballing the mysterious emulsifying wax.....I was thinking if I added some it would reduce the thick greasy film and turn it into a rich luxurious body lotioning balm. Ok, I'm kidding around a bit, but will adding e wax help the greasies?Thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Not that I'm aware of, but I'm thinking it was Dry-Flo that does. And if it's going on wet skin, you need a preservative in there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starring Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 My recipe was similar but had Beeswax, which made it even tackier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
