Introduction to “Homemade body lotion, why you need to make yours!” Homemade body lotion is meant to give fragrance, nourishment and freshness to the skin. Now, imagine you purchase a cream with high amount of cash and eventually you opened it and you discover it’s a fake. How will you feel? Do tell ‘cos i get it. We often imagined that when it comes to cream production, it means chemical and that’s a feat that can only be accomplished by the professionals. Now let me made this clear now that that is not entirely true. Let’s define lotion in a layman and unconventional term. Lotion simply means water and oil mixed together to form emulsion. Don’t bit my head off yet, i know. You feel this sounds crazy just like your high school chemistry, but chill. I’m m only scratching the surface and to be candid it doesn’t need to get harder, does it? It’s a known fact that oil and water doesn’t mix well (unless of course there is an emulsifier in play). This is the basics process of homemade body lotion but it goes a little further than this as you will soon learn.
