Scrap Your Bottled Moisturizer: Make Your Own Skin Creams

by Cassendre Xavier

hand spread with lotonMoisturizer is that magic elixir that metrosexuals, black folk like me, and everyone with very dry skin considers essential. It keeps the skin supple, comfy, glowing, and young-looking. But over-the-counter lotions and creams also sometimes contains mineral-based oils which clog the pores, and unpronounceable ingredients our bodies don’t understand.
For years, I’ve used a variety of 100% natural and simple ingredients to keep my skin so soft and young looking that I’m usually taken for at least 10 years younger than I am. Try them, you might like them!
