Hello Marana, A suitable substitute we cannot suggest. We recommend removing this ingredient from the formula, adjusting the percentage of floral water used. Good luck!

Hello Anca, Essesol is the active ingredient of this recipe, which provides sun protection. This ingredient is not interchangeable with the proposed variants. We haven't done similar tests, but instead of pigments, you could theoretically try coloring the product with cocoa powder, cinnamon not being a suitable alternative.

Hello, I have an unconventional question: to keep the recipe as natural as possible, can we replace the mineral filter with rice starch or bamboo powder, and can we replace the pigments with cocoa powder/scortirose? Thank you so much for the wonderful recipes and products! I am so glad I discovered you, you have changed my life for the better! ❤️

Hello, I noticed that you no longer have your sunscreen recipes. Both myself and others who have used them were very happy with them. Will you come back with new recipes somehow? Thank you in advance!

Hello! For higher protection it requires reformulation of the recipe and multiple tests, we will consider such a recipe in the future.

Good evening, In the specifications it says that it is light sunscreen. Considering I have a fair and sensitive complexion what should I do for a high protection especially in summer? I use summer cream with spf 50. Thank you very much.

Hello! Yes, it is okay to add jasmine absolute to this recipe. As for sunscreens, we usually scent very little or none at all, 1-2 drops of absolute can be added.

Hello. I made the recipe in which I doubled the amount of xanthan and the texture came out very well (it's denser, not so runny). Question: I put 2 drops of jasmine absolute. Is it ok? Also, can the absolute also be used for the sunscreen (oily skin) that you have posted? Thanks!

Hello! In this recipe we don't recommend replacing the emulsifier, it is quite a complex formula and would require reformulation and testing.

Hello! Substitute with the same properties we can't recommend, sericite or possibly rice powder would be suitable.

Dear Erika, if the pH is not less than 5, it is fine. As the cream is stable, has a good consistency and leaves a pleasant feeling on the skin, it is safe to use. Have a nice day!

I made a double batch of the cream (half of the flower water is rose water and half is regular water). At the end I wanted to acidify the cream with a few drops of lactic acid, but I accidentally added AHA fruit acid to the finished cream. It wasn't a few drops. In the end the ph of the cream came out to around 5. I used the cream a couple of times and it feels really good on the face, I got the colour right and the consistency of the cream is good. I would love to use the cream but I don't want to harm my skin with it.
