Let's create the PERFECT moisturizing cream or lotion!

OK, what I would like to do on this thread is both teach about formulating a highly moisturizing cream or lotion.... AND, find out from you, the user, what sort of characteristics you would like to see with this theoretical product.

I think this experiment could be very interesting! Tell me what you want in a highly moisturizing cream or lotion. From your comments, I will tell you which raw materials will create the effect and function that you are searching for in this product. This experiment will be a way to show you which raw materials to look for in moisturizing creams and lotions in order to choose and buy the best ones.

So, are you looking for fast penetration, easy spreading, low to no greasy skin feel, fast moisturizing effect, natural ingredients, good moisture barrier, no negative reactions, safe preservatives (?).... and on and on.

OK, let's get the discussion started!

What are you looking for and what do you want in your "perfect" highly moisturizing cream or lotion?

Moisturizing Eyelash Growth Serum.... known as the "E.Y.E.S" system.

For those of you who follow my cosmetics company "Never Over The Hill Cosmetics", you know that I have developed a new eyelash growth serum. The "Moisturizing Eyelash Growth Serum" known as the "E.Y.E.S" system, is only $25.00..... and it works as good if not better than Latisse and the other "drug" active eyelash products. Please take a moment and think before buying a product that contains a "drug" active. This particular drug active was designed to work against Glaucoma. It was found that a "side effect" of this Glaucoma drug was that eyelashes seemed to grow longer. However, that isn't the only side effect. Let me list the known side effects when using products that contain the drug "Lumigan"/Bimatoprost and prostaglandin type actives.

1) Eye color change, to a darker color which cannot be reversed
2) Red eyes, and/or redness around the eyelid area
3) Severe eye irritation on use of the product
4) Eyelash shedding and falling out
5) "spidery" eyelash growth, eyelashes that are not straight, that curl or bend in odd directions
6) Hairs growing in places on or near the eyes where hair should not grow
7) Blurred Vision
8) Drug active products REQUIRE a prescription to obtain, possess and use. This requires expensive doctor visits just to obtain the prescription. Ordering from "overseas" without the prescription is ILLEGAL, and the DEA can and will arrest users who have these products without a prescription.
9) Ordering a "drug" product from overseas, sight unseen, can result in products that are tampered with, not strong enough, contaminated, and/or potentially harmful to the user's health.

Now, this list is not something I made up to make my product sound better. The list of side effects is well known to the makers of the drug active, and THEY even have to include this list with every product sold, since it is a drug product.

After learning about these problems, and the problems that users of these products have had, that convinced me to make my product, which is a cosmetic product and NOT a drug product.

I have some before and after photos that I can share if you have a desire to see them. Once again, write to me at neveroverthehill@live.com
