Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Best to find an inert plastic, maybe the grocery store bags? If you do find any info on plastic wrap out gassing plasticizers please let the list know. In general the thermoset plastics are thought to out gas less but these days it is hard to determine. There may be a better cover material. Teflon? I actually have a teflon sheet that I use in sewing to iron on transfers because I can put it between the iron and the sealing material without it sticking to the iron. You can just let it soak in. It generally soaks in within about 20 minutes but some people want to compress 24/7 for maximal healing.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hi, The " recipe " is sort of roughly 1/2 ea. DMSO & the aloe vera lotion although I have previously also added some glycerin with good results .. again not too exacting but generally try for not real runny so if too runny, add more lotion and/or aloe very gel itself. One can also add in different essential oils although these tend to separate but just give a shake. Since the " Youth serum " helps disguise my elderly lines, can it really be a " truth serum " ??/ (Perhaps the Truth is that most of time I am feeling much younger in spirit!! The Spirit is ageless.) I use it all over on the face, very thinly, except not real close to the eyelids .. just close enough to soak up puffy! You can feel it tightening. It ALSO seems to have taken away some beginning brown spots I had been getting. Now much younger looking that way too. had shared that it realigns the DNA. Best wishes ... Joyce > > Hi Joyce. As for your truth serum, would you have the recipe for that and exactly where on the face? Sounds exciting. Also thanks for the info on plastic.
