Making My Own Beauty Products

I am a total newbie about making my own beauty products and had a couple of questions. I want to make the body lotion that calls for aloe vera, mineral water and peppermint oil...

I am unsure in what form is the aloe vera necessary? Liquid or gel? And also are commercial mineral waters such as Pellegrino OK to use?

Thanks for your help!

Liquid or Gel
by: Angela

Hi Ana
I would recommend that you use the Aloe Vera Gel as this tends to be more potent than the Liquid.

Because you rinse off this moisturiser after five or ten minutes you need it to be as concentrated as possible.

As long as it says 'Mineral Water' I'm sure that it will be OK.
