Moisturizers bought in the face store may vary significantly at the price. Some are cheap (and have equally cheap ingredients to coincide), while others are marked to almost astronomical amounts that try to take advantage of people’s obsession with youthful skin. The “anti -aging” luxury options can cost up or $ 50 per bottle!
While many of these products claim to offer hydration and food, they can also contain many ingredients and filling preservatives. Making your own moisturizer allows you to save money and make sure that your skin only natural and effective ingredients is absorbed.
