So . . . I'm a newbie Razz as this is my 1st post Very Happy

A couple of days ago I made my 1st vitamin C serum and already seeing improvements in my face. What I was wondering is what could I use for my entire body?

I'm 45 with dry skin during the winter that I haven't really take care of. Summer is coming and I want my whole body to glow like my face.

Can I purchase some lotion and add some of my vitamin C serum to it? Should I? How should I go about this? Would it be cheaper for me to purchase something off the shelf? If this has been discussed, please point me to the thread.

Thanks for any help or insight you can provide.

Seeing as LAA made yourself is so inexpensive, many who want to use it all over just double the recipe and apply all over (it is lovely) and you can then apply a regular body lotion or oil of choice after. It is the simplest method IMHO.
Other members may have different suggestions and will add theirs in time I am sure. Very Happy

Welcome snuckles! Very Happy Enjoy the forum!

Which form of vitamin C are you referring to? Have you tried a gentler cleanser for your body, one that contains no sulphate surfactants nor alkaline soaps?
