How to Select the Right Lotion for Your Skin
- Shiny or uneven texture: choose the rice preparation.
- Dull tone or lack of radiance: turmeric is the best choice.
- Need a plumping or smoothing effect: coffee or flaxseed formulas.
- For a light, universal option: the rose water version.
Always store homemade lotions in the refrigerator and prepare small batches to maintain optimal freshness and quality.
