Vaseline is a part of Oil (Petroleum), it is composed of long-chain saturated hydrocarbons. Both Vaseline and plastics are derivatives of oil, and they are both impermeable to water. Do not wrap your skin and learn how you can make your own natural product.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 .................. Almond oil
- 1TBSP ................ Beeswax
Method:
- Mix the oil and grated wax in a microwavable bowl and microwave at 30 seconds increments (it takes about 2 minutes until just melted). Or you can melt over a low heat in a double boiler.
- Mix the resultant mixture in a mixer
- Pour into a suitable vehicle (you can use your old cleaned container)
- Let to cool and cover the jar
Now you have your natural fatty base, and you can elaborate to include any oil or any additives, Examples:
Baby Vaseline:
- 1/4 ................. Olive oil
- 1TBSP ............... Chamomile oil
- 1TBSP ............... Aloe Vera oil
- 1TBSP ............... Beeswax (grated)
Go through the same procedure to make the best soothing agent for your baby skin. Use it for his body especially the napkins area. You can also use Castor oil, Sesame oil, or a mixture of the 3 oils.
Hallows Vaseline:
- 1/4 UP .............. Olive oil
- 1TBSP ............... Wheat Germ oil
- 1TBSP ............... Beeswax (grated)
You can also use vitamin E. Apply to the dark areas under your eyes
Lip Gloss with Different Flavors:
While you are making your natural Vaseline, add Cocoa Powder, Strawberry, Raspberry, or Blueberry drink crystals, or Berry flavored Kool-aid (with sugar already added), and stir well to combine. Pour into the original cleaned old pot (or any other clean one) and let cool until set.
Honey Lip Gloss:
Combine 3 tablespoons of your made Vaseline with one teaspoon of honey, and use the same procedure to melt and let cool.
You can use different flavors like Alkanet root, Cherry flavoring oil, peppermint oil, Coffee grinds .... etc, with any type you like.
With practice, you may be also capable of making your own cream. Any cream consists of a fatty base, emulsifier (soap-like material and you can actually use soap), stabilizer (Gum or Starch like material), and water. Practice and keep visiting this blog, chances are you can make your own cosmetics.... sell them? may be.
