I had to try a skin cream.. I do not tolerate most of the commercial creams and because I’m lazy in terms of spoiling myself, I sometimes do not use anything. Other times, I go all out and experiment 🙂
This cream was basically a throwing together of compounds based on gut feeling.
I used:
- 71g kombucha mother*
- 25g coconut oil
- 25g shea butter
- 20g cocoa butter
- essential oils: 3 drops bergamot and 1 drop of litsea
* The kombucha mother was put in the blender with a bit of kombucha liquid to get rid of the chunks and make an almost perfect mousse..
Skin Cream Part 2
Yes I tried another one, this time with kombucha being 1/3 of the water phase (the rest being ginger tea), the oils used included bees wax, aprikot oil and coconut oil.
Essential oils were bergamot, litsea, ylang-ylang
This is a very soft and smooth cream, much better than the previous one, and I’ve been using it a lot myself!
