Beth, what is the new ingredient?

Its a nice lotion and my bottle is half gone but I have to be careful of

what I put on my face because I tend to break out so easily. This has been

and ongoing struggle for me and I have been trying to come up with things

myself. And expecially challenging is that right now with the cold dry air,

my face is very dry, (I have never had dry skin untill the past year or

two), but most moisturizers give me a pimple or two. So I just cant seem to

win. I do seem to do better with a nonemulsified oil mix with olive

squalene (love that stuf). Beth Im sorry I guess I didnt help you out

much.

GATHERING SWAP PARTICIPANTS! Question for you

For the gathering this summer, I made a lotion that contained a newly

formulated ingredient that is an antioxidant and helps to retain the skin's

moisture and thus prevent and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

Does anyone have feedback on how you think it worked? I'm particularly

interested in your opinions on whether it moisturized your skin, and if you

used

it faithfully, whether it made your skin look better.

Thanks so much!

I got mine Beth, and used it up a while ago. Thanks for that contribution to

the gathering swap. I use a lot of facial creams and lotions for my dry

skin. Your lotion was wonderful; nice and light just the way I like it ; )

Sinks

right in, leaving the skin emollient and not greasy at all. I'm the perfect

tester since my skin is finicky and tends to have eczemoid outbreaks. There

are very few things I can use other than what I make. I did not break out at

all using your lotion. Trust me, that says a lot right there. My skin felt and

looked great. I should have thanked you long before this!!!!

Hey Guys,

I dug out the Swap Product booklet. Nutri-layer (used at 3%) is the

" anti-wrinkle " ingredient. Beth said one could use 5% e-wax instead.

It all helps, Shaye! :-)

The ingredient is NutriLayer. It has rice bran wax, tocopherols, and

squalene. It's a wrinkle smoother and preventer because it holds in so much

moisture.

I know the face can be sensitive to many things. This was the first

lotion/cream I've used on my face in quite awhile. I usually use facial oil,

too.

I wanted to test the powers of NutriLayer, though.

Gotcha. Sorry I missed the nutrilayer info. My bad. Can you use

nutrilayer alone?

Katy, Loreal can be your best freind if you want her to be .

Beth, I suspect its either the Ewax in lotions or my face is sensitive

to fragranced stuf (with a fo, not eo) that makes me break out in

areas. I wonder if you can just incorporate the Nutrilayer in a

facial oil blend. I hope you dint take what I said as bad about your

lotion, I cant use my or anyone elses lotion on my face either. Same

thing happens. I'd love to try it sometime mixing it with the oil

blend I have come up with if I can find where to get some.

Thanks Beth

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No problem. You can. It's not dangerous to use alone, but you probably

wouldn't want to because it has a thick, almost Vaseline-like consistency. It

actually reminds me a lot of lanolin, minus the smell. I think my next trick

will be to melt some and mix it in with my facial oil to see how that works.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I know. I've got to try that.

I wasn't bothered, because I know that can happen. I wouldn't be surprised

if it was the fragrance, and secondly, the e-wax.

I wrote an article for the Saponifier (Jan. issue) on NutriLayer, and before

submitting the article, went back to Eastman Chemical, the manufacturer, to

see who carries it, and haven't gotten a response from them. Honestly, I

don't know whether it's in distribution yet or not. I'll let you know if I

find

out anything. I hate to create a demand and then have to say, " Yes, it's

great stuff, but you can't get any. "

Ha! Ha! If you're talking about hair color, I'm too chicken for that!

:-) My daughter changes the color of her hair like she does her clothes

and she's had quite a few surprise colors. ;-)
