Aloe Daily Moisturiser

Aloe Daily Moisturiser

This is a classic daily moisturiser that is just the perfect amount of hydration for the skin. It is non-greasy, absorbs fast, and leaves the skin feeling great for hours afterwards.

The Montanov 68 is a specialised emulsifier that acts as a moisturiser and provides moisture to the skin for hours after application. It prevents transepidermal water loss in the skin, which is a great property to have in a face cream, especially in the drier winter months.

Avocado butter adds some deep moisturising and conditioning properties.

And actives of aloe vera, D panthenol, Vitamin E and niacinamide really boost the formula.

Give it a try!

  4. Blend in the aloe gel and and then stir by hand until cool down.
  5. Add in the cool down phase ingredients.

Hi. Can i use guar gum in this moisuriser?

Ruanda

Hi Vee, yes you probably could. It may change the final absorbancy a little as shea butter is much more greasy than avocado butter. But give it a give and let us know!

Juliette

Can I use shea butter instead of avocado butter?
