Try Dari Natural’s Tropical Butter. It’s made from unrefiend shea butter, pure lanolin, cocoa butter, and olive oil. It’s all natural, you can almost? eat this stuff. It’s great to use it as a diaper rash ointment. Especially if you use cloth diapers for your little ones. there products are so gentle and perfect for sensitive skin. I also love to use their body wash for my little kids!

@aditi1998 It wouldn’t hurt to try it out. if it feels? nice on your skin i would say it’s a good option.

@erinthecitymouse oh…ok. I’m not from europe but? I’m from india. (Asian country) so, yes it is hard to find corn starch. Anyway, can we use cornflour too? It is used to thicken sauces, and it reduces the greasiness too, right?
January 16, 2012, 10:05 pmerinthecitymouse says:
@aditi1998 Corn starch is a thickening agent (and in body butters is also cuts the greasiness of the butter) and corn flour is a flour used more for baking/breads. If you are in the EU you may have a? tough time finding corn starch from what i have read.

@erinthecitymouse? what is the difference?
January 16, 2012, 10:43 pmerinthecitymouse says:
@aditi1998 no it’s? not the same thing.

Edable Body butter sounds fun to make, but imagine eating body butter (lots of them) and not putting them on? your skin……or licking them off your skin, it feels wrong

@ilovethewayitHurts? most ready made body butters actually contain a high amount of water and emulsyfying waxes, which is very cheap – as well as glycols – also very cheap to produce, and toxic to the skin. This kind of butter here, can be customised to your individual skin needs, and IS very affordable to made when buying twholesale from suppliers of these ingredients.
