i made my own lotion :)

i'm such a control freak, i've been wanting to do this for awhile. i haven't ever been able to find a lotion that felt good and didn't make me break out. don't know if this one will be any better, but i like that i can put exactly what i want into it. here's what i used, if anyone's curious:

oils:
emu oil
jojoba oil
shea butter

moisture:
distilled water
glycerin
aloe vera

thickeners/emulsifiers:
polysorbate 60
sorbitan sorbate

misc:
allantoin
grapefruit seed extract

i left out the cetyl alcohol, cause i think it gives me zits, so my lotion is on the thinner side, but that's actually good since my skin isn't that dry. if this works, i'm going to try adding titanium dioxide to it to make a sunscreen (crossing fingers)

just wanted to blab,
heather
