Here is a site that has a vast array of DIY anti-ageing and other skin care ingredients....some I'd never even heard of but now realize I can't live without. The beauty is that they tell you what it is used for and how to formulate with it. Warning: this stuff ain't cheap! But when you factor is how much you'll save by making your own v. buying the expensive stuff in the fancy jar, it's a bargain!

May be this way i could make up my vit c and ret cream? However though would i get in trouble for bringing these products into UK though! Thanks for info though fawnie!

I don't really know about shipping. You could check the website.

You really need to give skincare products more time than just a week to see any benefits. It takes at least a month and usually 6 wks for me to tell for sure.

The IS Clinical should at least look like it is smoothing out the skin and giving it a glow. Do you not see any benefit at all? I used it with my BabyQ and it definitely helped my skin at the time.

Yep I've seen that sight but forgot about their recipes. Pretty awesome.
Wow DIY sunscreen.

Too bad no european ingredients. I also wish their SPF was higher but I guess you could push that up a bit with some mad experimenting.

Free Recipes for Cosmetics and Skin Care

Yeah, I thought so too. They add way more parabens and emulsifiers than I would, but the recipes are interesting.

The "Lacto-ceramides" on that site (under Anti-Ageing) are getting some buzz. I will probably add them to my next batch of goo when I run out of what I use now.

"Skintight" and "Skinlift" are interesting too.

Gee and I can even add preservatives, coloring and perfume if I want too!!! WoW! Just like Estee Lauder!!!

Hi I did have quick look earlier but could not find ant shipping info, il check again, im not too sure what the laws are here as far as bringing stuff in to the country but then again if it works out more than just buying the products not really worth it anyway! We have quite a few of brands here now anyway so il just see what works out cheaper!

I have not yet invested in baby Q was bit worried after hearing about side effects etc, do you get a money bk gaurantee with it if i dont like it for any reason?

I do def feel like iv got a lift since using the serum so il just see if it starts smoothing out my fine lines, im just being impatient, il give it a bit longer and see what happens really hopefully il be suprised! Le ya know how it goes anyway! Thanks though for the advice though, waiting to see if stuff actually works or not is always a pain for me!

You will have to let me though if any of the products you are experimenting with work for you though please!
