Guest guest Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Hi Marge, thanks for the info on carrier oils and sun protection. I have used Seabuckthornberry oil before for sun protection I am having trouble getting hold of raspberry seed oil I have also heard this is the best for sun protection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I am wondering if you could make your own making an infusion with oil. Can u use rasberry leaf? It might not be as strong, but probably have some of the same properties? Seabuckthornberry is very expensive. They use that in anti aging facial care products allot. Does anyone know wherre u can find it at a reasonable cost? Jen maves On Sun, Apr 5, 2009 at 11:49 PM, aromaprue <prubarista wrote: > Hi Marge, thanks for the info on carrier oils and sun protection.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 thanks for the raspberry leaf infusion idea.. I have a raspberry bush growing i might give it a go. I get seabuckthornberry oil from New Directions Australia it is fairly expensive $52 Aus for 100 ml but i generally don't use very much at a time. I have found Raspberry seed oil to be more expensive than this. Thanks for the Raspberry Leaf suggestion I will share any results i find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 It's my understanding that shea butter has some sun protection properties. Of course, I have no idea what kind of an SPF it might have. Might be worth trying. ??? HTH!
