How to make 'Toxic-Free' moisturisers
After uncovering some unusual claims about the ingredients in our cosmetics, author Kate Lock decided to start making her own.
She said: "The reasons why we buy products are not to do with what is in them half the time, it's about the presentation, the packaging and the advertising.
"I started looking into what is actually in cosmetics and decided to make my own with less and more simple ingredients. I think of mine as toxic-free."
Kate's moisturiser ingredients:
Calendula Flowers
Almond Oil
Avocado Oil
Peppermint Oil
Beeswax
Kate added: "I make all sorts of products when I have the time. I don't sell what I make, I just use it myself and give it to some other mums in the playground!"
