i've been reading that when you use a body moisturiser it shouldn't have mineral oil in
has anyone any good ideas which is the best body moisturiser to use
thanks again0 -
hi, saint chris just pour it in your hands and whack it on....all over!....hope you like it, add a few drops of your fave essential oil....i know moisturisers shouldnt have oils but otherwise you just dry out!...hows the tanning going glowgirl? Im going to re do myself tonight..getting a wee bit patchy!
Good luck all and keep posted!:beer:0 -
so i can't just use olive oil
else i will dry out, what oils do you mean to add
sorry to sound so thick0 -
Hi all,
Not sure which moisturiser to mix the booster drops with, I don't moisturise very often :eek: so not my area of expertise. I have used that new vaseline cocoa butter one recently which seems quite nice, except it feels sticky for quite a while after you out it on. Can anyone reccomend any good body moisturisers?
Saint Chris, Ksa is reffering to the esscential oils which you can find in little bottles in boots and health shops, have a look here for an example http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=10721
Slightly off topic but lavender oil is an excellent repelant for midges (sp?), so we may find we benefit in more ways then one by mixing it with olive oil!

Hi Ksa. Tanning is good, I had a good scrub this morning and reapplied so have a medium colour (for me anyway;)) that looks good, might do another layer tomorrow depending on how busy I am, I am going to reorder tomorrow as well:T My daughter is ecstatic that I am allowing her to use some 'proper' self tan, I shall of course report back.
Saint_Chris - don't be silly you don't sound thick, we are all here to learn and help each other:T I poured not a lot of olive oil into a small bowl put in quite a few drops of essential oil and slapped it on all over, not my face (yet) just my body, Ksa. is right it only takes a couple of mins to sink in and then you can go about your business, I made too much so just left in the bowl on the side in the kitchen, warned everyone not to touch, and used it as a hand moistuiser throughout the day - hth - good luck:)Thank you for this site MartinThe time for change has comeGood luck for the future0 -
thanks girls, for answering my questions especially as it is your tanning thread.
just a quick one again, i've just put plain old olive oil on, as i've no essential oil yet, seemed a bit greasy on my face and it stayed like that for ages,
should i wait till i get the essential oil before i use it again
and should it be olive oil, or extra virgin olive oil
thanks0
