VITA KARUNA: Essential oils for cosmetics and well-being

Support recipe (cream, balms, jells)

Support recipe (cream, balms, gels)

The manufacture of a suitable support that may contain vegetable oils, a mixture of essential oils and / or an aqueous plant extract (infusion or alcoholic mother tincture) is not obvious, especially for significant active component contents ( calming, anti-inflammatory, healing, etc ...).

Among the simplest preparations that can be made at home with the simple means available in a kitchen, I propose the following mixtures:

- creams (a moisturizing cream or a nourishing cream (Cold-Cream))

Moisturizer:

Here is a moisturizing emulsion (dispersion of oil in water) using the latest ingredients provided by the current cosmetics market. It makes it possible to mix oily compounds insoluble in water) and aqueous compounds (insoluble in oil) in the form of a homogeneous and stable mixture. It makes it particularly possible to apply active oils and essential oils simultaneously with aqueous or alcoholic plant extracts. Such a mixture allows an optimal care activity through the skin without leaving a trace of fat. A little miracle of technology :).

Nourishing cream (Cold-Cream):

Here is a nourishing emulsion (water-in-oil dispersion) also using the latest ingredients provided by the current cosmetics market. It makes it possible to mix oily compounds which are insoluble in water) and aqueous compounds (insoluble in oil) in the form of a homogeneous, stable and particularly nourishing mixture for the skin. However, it leaves a greasy film on the skin, but in certain cases the presence of such a protective film is sought (particularly dry skin)
