How to Make Shimmer Body Lotion
Looking for a simple way to add some flair to your evening look, in order to rock a night out on the town? Bring your search to an end, and try a shimmer body lotion to give your skin a radiant yet subtle shine. This is the easiest way to add an element of glow to your body, and the best thing about a shimmery lotion is its longevity – it will stick to your body for pretty much as long as you want, until you decide to wipe it off deliberately. A body lotion containing shimmer is a wonderful substitute for the more traditional but messy cosmetic powders, and is typically rubbed into the skin on the arms, chest and legs.
There is a wide collection of shimmer body lotions available in the market, but these usually contain chemicals which can be harmful for the skin. With just a couple of easily available ingredients, you can make your own homemade shimmer body lotion within a few minutes. Not only is it highly effective, it is also the more economical option.
