1. Heat the ingredients of phases A and B separately up to 80°C in a heat-resistant beaker on a water bath. When both phases have reached the right temperature, remove from heat.

2. Add the contents of phase A to phase B with mixing, continue mixing until smooth.

3. Place the beaker in a bowl of cold water and blend until a smooth, glossy, homogeneous emulsion is formed.

4. When the mixture has cooled to below 40°C (hand temperature) add the Phase C ingredients and mix thoroughly until smooth.

5. Measure the pH value and adjust if necessary.

6. Transfer the composition to the dedicated container. The consistency will be final on the next day.

Note: The marigold extract must be fluidified either by placing the bottle in a pot of warm water or by melting the exact amount in a small pot on a water bath.

A cream with a pleasant texture on application, particularly rich in ingredients to deeply moisturise and nourish the skin of the hands. Leaves the skin velvety soft.

Hello! Thanks for the reminder. It was human error. I have corrected the heating temperature of the two phases. Yes, you can increase the percentage of the two ingredients by removing the extra urea from the water and the extra ceramides from the oil.

Good evening!I have 2 questions!I read in the technical data sheet that we should heat the ceramides up to 85 degrees and that it is very important to solubilize them very well in the oil phase!At 70 degrees, do they solubilize well enough?Can I increase the percentage of urea to 5% and the percentage of ceramides to 1% in this recipe, decreasing the percentage of water, i.e. shea butter, accordingly?Thank you!

Hi, when do you intend to prepare 100 gr Emulsifier Bella? 500 gr is a bit overdose for personal use.

Can you replace marigold extract with chamomile extract? If yes, can the same percentage be used?

Hello Andreea, Ceramides have no substitute. The hand cream can practically be made without this ingredient by adjusting the percentage of shea butter.

I tried this recipe and shared it with my mom and grandma. They are extremely pleased with it, especially that it doesn't leave a greasy feeling on the skin and doesn't get in the way of your daily activities. I also applied it liberally to my cracked heels and by morning you could already see the miraculous effect of the marigold extract in it. You are wonderful and I can't wait to make more recipes!

Kedves ügyfelünk, A Marigold CO2 nem helyettesíthető egy hasonló tulajdonságú kivonattal, ellenben elhagyható vagy Kamilla CO2 kivonattal pótolható. Sok sikert kívánunk!

Hello Dana, For the eye area we suggest milder creams, without urea and perfumes. We recommend taking inspiration from the recipes for the face, eye area.

Hello. Can this cream be used in the eye area for dry skin? Instead of perfuming I would like to put panthenol. Thank you for the very good recipes that make us beautiful .

Hi Dana, In the case of high pH, gradually add lactic acid drop by drop. Mix well and measure the pH level after each addition until the desired pH is achieved. In the case of low pH, proceed in the same way by gradually adding arginine. Good luck!

Hello! They have different properties, but you can use bisabolol or schisandra, both of which add a plus to such a cream.
