Will you post the results you have with your DIY cream?
I've noticed thicker and better hydrated skin (although I didn't have a problem with the latter before). But I didn't notice cream's effect on wrinkles yet. I will try to be more consistent with experimenting an report back if I see a difference.
The ingredients for the bluelene product:
Thank you for posting the ingredients. Will you be using it as a day-time cream for skin hydration?
I do want to try to make similar creams at home in the future. I gather that I need, at the least, a mg scale, and probably also a hot plate and other items that I vaguely remember from college chemistry lab.
Technically, I do my own salves, not creams. I.e., they do not contain any water or alcohol. I follow salve-making techniques described in The Herbal Medicine-Maker's Handbook: A Home Manual by James Green .
(I am not affiliated with the book author or publishing company.) They are quite easy and don't need unusual implements.
Feel free to PM me if you have questions on your salve making. I'd be glad to help if I can.
I use MB in powder form and dissolve it in oil.Do you use oxidal for MB?
I tried a water solution of MB but my salve's "shelf-life" didn't exceed ~1 week when I mixed it in.
