Kombucha, anyone?

[Guest guest]

Hey All-

A friend of a friend of a friend said she likes to mix kombucha with a

commercial body lotion to put on her skin. She does it when she uses the

lotion and would like a lotion made with the kombucha already in it so she

doesn't have to keep mixing it. Does anyone here have experience with it?

Would it work like a " normal " tea? I think the idea of using something with

probiotics is scaring me from the prospect.

Any ideas about using kombucha?

Thank you,

I knew nothing about it until you brought it up and

read about it in Wiki. It sounds totally disgusting to

me. I have 2 concerns: suppliers - is it made properly

and contaminant free and second, it has a a multiple

acid content that I WONDER ABOUT - SOME WHERE IN THE

RANGE OF 2.5 - 4.5/ That should be taken into

consideration when adding to a lotion since you are

leaving it on the skin. Water is neutral.I don't know

how subbing this tea for water would end up - I guess

you could experiment if you think it's worth your

time.And of course, checking the ph of what you use

and then in the end product.
