bath and body

I'm trying to make a foaming bath soak without any coconut derived products due to allergies. However, I am finding it hard to find any foaming agents that are coconut free. Does anyone have a suggestion of what I can do to achieve the foaming effect without slsa (cocnut derived) and other...

Hi Friends! I hope you’re all doing well!! I recently remade an emulsified body butter I have made in the past, but this time I wanted my fragrance oil to have a stronger smell, so I added a bit more (within the IFRA requirements). I decreased the liquid oils in my formula for the amount of...

Hello All, I have created the following lotion formula, but unfortunately it is only preserved/good for 4 months. After that its smell starts to change and further on mold starts to show. Can you please help on is wrong/ missing with my formula or what ingredient should be added to 1/stabilize...

This is an edited version of a pm I recently sent and a couple of good standing members thought I should post it. I will mention no names but I am including some thoughts on lotion safety which I am frankly paranoid about due to immune issues and as we probably all know, my severe eczema issues...
