can you use these leaves for making lotions and such?

I would think you could grind it further but you might want to look for Peppermint oil. We used this peppermint in our smoothies, cooking, etc. Hope this helped. Even just grabbed some to freshen breath after brushing. Vibrant flavor

Hello, you can use this wonderful butter as is but it is very thick. I use it to create body butter and hair lotion. It was work wonders on my son's eczema. I mix it with coconut oil and other essential oils. I LOVE THIS BUTTER.

I would think yes you can. I bought it to spray paper flowers to make the holly leaves shiny. Take a scrap piece and try it. jaybeeboc

I would imagine that you could, but why would you want to? The product is formulated to reduce sun damage and you would be creating further sun damage. Do you want better skin or tan skin? Every tan damages skin cells. Why not use a facial skin tanner?

Hi Pegaboo,Yes, you can use lotion with it, as long as it does not contain any exfoliating beads. We also do not recommend using a lotion that is very thick. Please keep in mind that you may need to adjust the volume settings using the 'plus' and 'minus' buttons, depending on the consistency of the product that is being used.Best,simplehuman

I use it in my homemade lotions. You can get info from wellnessmama.com and diynatural.com. It is amazing for sore muscles. Hope this helps :)

Yes! I have used it to make lotion, lotion bars, and lip balm. Love it! It does have a rich chocolate scent that is impossible to cover, so don't try. Use Shea butter instead. But the chocolate scent works really well combined with peppermint or orange. Basic recipe is equal parts butter (Shea or Cocoa) and an oil (coconut, olive) with beeswax (amount determines how firm the product will be). Best way to test a recipe is to start with small amounts, place ingredients in a small jelly jar, and heat in a pan of water until everything melts. Remove from heat, let sit for a few minutes and then stir in essentials oils if using. The jar becomes your storage container, so you don't have any cleanup. Yes!

I don't see why you could'nt. I am no expert, if one exist. But in time, the leaves would compost themselves, giving you a added benifit. I think it would look great. I have five that I use for vegetables, and they look great.

I'm sure you can, I use it in my hair products. Recently, I've treated my daughters eczema on her hand with it. It's very oily so you don't need much.

Yes you can, they are great moisturizer, especially good around eyes. Also great for minor burns and sunburn.

Yes, you can use them for wet cupping. They are boil-able so disinfecting is a cinch.

Yes, I would think so. I used them in my handmade soap. I pulled the petals off the hard center, and mixed them in. Wonderful for your skin!

You could, but I'd use CeraVe Baby Lotion. It doesn't contain parabens or sulfites: CeraVe Baby Lotion, 8 Ounce
