Hello!

Thanks for all of your answers, im gonna start trying all of them
Im trying to create any sort of cream/ointment that works for dry hands without leaving the skin oily, thats why i wanna emulsify my inventions since they always end up being rather oily!

Cheers!!!

Hello

I always use either beeswax, cocoa butter or shea butter to create ointments, tho i never have managed to create a more creamy substance (cream...) because it takes chemical emlusifyiers.

is there any NATURAL alternative?

Hello everyone

I made a tincture using Rosemary, Laurel, Boldo and Peumo (those last 2 are from Chile only, I'm from Chile).
All those plants are supposed to help when it comes to muscle pain or Rheumatism.
Then i made an Ointment using Beeswax, almond oil and Palm oil.
Heated the oinment a bit and added the tincture.
What i was never sure about was whether i did pour enough or too much tincture on it, though i used it on my yoga teacher who had her ankle sprained and she said i worked every time she used it; i still have the doubt.

Here's a picture of what came out of this mixture:


CHEERS!
