It does sink in nicely unlike so may attempts...I have tried so many recipes but most of them have been too greasy for me( butters mixed with oils) leaves a sheen and an heavy feel that I hate.water phase42% Aloe gel from wsp25% witchhazel 1% acv5% glycerinoil phase2% soy wax10% fco5% jojoba3 % ewax2% stearicadded this last5% cyclovit EfoJust experimenting and want to make this a face cream so I may take out the soy wax and up the stearic and change oil to jojoba or something else like -kiwi, orchid complex is my fav.My one question is Do I need a preservative in this?

CBE Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I say yes... you definitely need a perservative with the introduction of aloe gel and witch hazel. Stay on the safe side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
