lilithim,
I took a look at the ingredient list & isolated the active ingredients from those that make up the emulsion (base). Below are the actives & herbal extracts that could be added to a base cream. Judging from the placement on the ingredient list, I would say that the actives add up to no more than 3% of the total formulation. But please understand that it will not have the same feel as the original product, and without knowing the exact concentrations of the formula, it most likely will not have the same effect on your skin. But if you want to give it a try for the heck of it, this is what you would add to your base cream-
Actives:
peppermint
myrtle
licorice extract
adenosine phospate
lemon
grapefruit
spearmint
vegetable squalene
plant sterols
white birch extract
ginko biloba
soya lecithin
wheat germ oil
linoleic acid
oat extract
caffeine
magnesium ascorbyl phosphate (vitamin c)
pantethine (vitamin B5)
Tocopherol (vitamin E)
GOOD LUCK!

I just thought of something with this formula - if you want to keep the sunscreen in this, you will need to add the octyl methoxycinnamate and titanium dioxide as well. I was super tired when I replied to your post (up way to late)  and never even thought of it!
Let us know how it turns out! |
