Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Is there anyone out there? Did everyone go south for the winter? Surely someone has a question or suggestion, or made something they are proud of and want to share. This used to be a very active group. What happened? You all remember the library? Have you tried anything there and does it work or have you an improved recipe to share? I know the library hasn't been updated in awhile but that is because I wasn't around to do it. I'm back now and need content to add. Got any good marketing ideas? New ways to package? New uses for items? Anything helpful. Let's see if we can get this group motivated again. I'll start. I have a friend who is a physical/massage therapist and she has been giving me massages. I made some massage cream/oil or whatever for her to use on me. Main ingredient is coconut oil (it's solid at 72 degrees) about 1/2 cup. I added about 1 oz. emu oil, 2 teaspoons MSM powder and about 1/2 oz. DMSO (this will help the skin to absorb the good stuff). Then to make is smell good I added a few drops of Jasmin fragrance oil. Great stuff and really smelled good. Then I remembered that she doesn't like fragrance oils so made another batch. In this one I left out the emu oil (put it all in the first batch:) and added the contents of 2 gel caps of multivitamins, 2 of vitamin E, 3 capsules of Magnesium, along with the other stuff in the first batch. The magnesium was a tiny bit gritty but it did mostly dissolve. The little that was left made for just the right amount of friction to warm things up and I didn't feel it at all when she used it. This one didn't smell so nice (Multivitamins don't smell nice:) but it made a fantastic cream/oil for a massage. I'm a little dab of this and a little dab of that person so I don't really have an exact recipe. Maybe someday I'll right one. So, there is what I'm doing. Anyone else doing anything they want to share? Okie Vice Moderator (figuratively and literally:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
