Natural Cosmetics

#Japan#Culture

Finally, I gave up making a hand-made cosmetic and bought natural cosmetics through the Internet. I was looking for a chipper and good lotion and I remembered that my friend was making a lotion by herself. According to her, it was not only economical but also good for the skin. I felt that this was a good idea and I decided to make a lotion. However, I didn't know how to make a hand-made lotion, so I googled it.

Almost all the websites say that it is easy to make a lotion, but we need to prepare some purified water and glycerin, and also essential oil if you want to make it. I went to a drugstore to buy them at once. I found some purified water and glycerin and made a lotion once I came back  home. It was so easy that I could make my lotion in 5 mins. 

After making the lotion, I checked some home pages about hand-made cosmetics and I felt that it might affect my skin, because I didn't use a vegetable glycerin and scald tools. This might not be big deals, but I finally decided to rely on the specialist of  cosmetics, which means I will rely on companies which produce cosmetics using natural ingredients, because after all it became troublesome to hand-make it. I found a company which makes cosmetics which are gentle on the skin. If you are interested in the products, more information is available at the homepage; http://www.ishizawa-lab.com/products/original.html

After all, a hand-made cosmetic lotion didn't suit me, because I might be lazy, and I feel that the cost might be much higher if I put some natural ingredients which are said to be good for the skin and for retaining skin moisture. I'll keep using the cosmetics and see how it goes for a while.
