Anti-age lotion



Waterfase:
5% Glycerine
69% water eller hydrosol (ev 30-40g aloe vera gel)

Oilfase:
2,5% Shea butter
5% Evening primrose oil
5% Pomegranate oil
5% Grapeseed oil
5% Emulsifier (vegetal: Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Glucoside)

Coolingfase:
1% Preservative (phenoxyethanol ethylhexylglyc)
1% Peppermint essential oil
1% Olibanum(frankincense) essential oil
0,5% Turmeric essential oil

Weigh the ingredients for the water and oilfase in separate heat resistant beakers. Weigh the waterfas and beaker so after heating you can replenish the water that evaporates. Place them in a water bath and heat until all the solids are liquefied. Then pour the waterfase into the oilfase and mix with a handmixer until cool. 


Weigh the ingredients for the coolingfase and add to your lotion when it's started to cool down about 40 degrees celsius. 


Mix thoroughly. 

Now it's ready to be packed up. I used an old smaller winebottle but you can also find very good squeeze bottles on amazon.
