Hello Oana, Yes, this recipe is suitable even for newborns. The finished product already has a subtle coconut scent, but you can make the suggested additions and replace the water with lime water. Have a sunny day!

Instead of the aromatic extract, you can try other aromatic extracts or essential oils with a more penetrating scent, according to your preference.

Hi Raluca, We recommend adding panthenol or silk protein, in max. 3%, in phase B, decreasing the amount of water accordingly.

Hello. I made the recipe and I find it dries the skin a bit. Not too much, but I would like it more moisturizing. What could I do to make it more moisturizing? Also, instead of the coconut extract I put rosemary and grapefruit essential oil, but it feels quite Tensida. I guess to cover the tenside smell, would it be advisable to use a stronger aromatic extract (melon) or stronger essential oils (lemongrass, lavender, jasmine)? Thank you very much!

Hello, Yes, you can add the two ingredients in phase B, 2% keratin and the same 2% silk protein, subtracting the amount of water accordingly. Good luck!

Hello! Tensida SCI is milder, we don't recommend replacing it with SCS in this formula for sensitive skin, but we have other recipes with SCS that you can draw inspiration from.

Hello! An ingredient with similar action that can be included in this type of composition, we cannot recommend. Possibly remove allantoin from the recipe.

It is a very good product. I use it mostly for hair that tends to get greasy. Ever since I wash with it my hair is cleaner for longer and to my surprise it gets fat less. I used Monoi oil instead of coconut oil and watermelon flavored extract

It can be used, but do not apply directly on the skin but lather in the palms.

Thank you,I didn't know if I can simply weigh, regardless of the consistency or is it necessary to convert grams into milliliters...I admit, math never liked me!
