Neutral bases can take the form of creams, lotions, gels or oils, and are generally formulated to be non-irritating and non-allergenic. They can be used alone or in combination with other ingredients to create skin care products such as moisturizers, body lotions, facial cleansing gels, etc.
The advantages of neutral bases are that they allow active ingredients to be easily absorbed by the skin, as they contain no irritating or allergenic ingredients. They also enable cosmetics manufacturers to create customized formulations to meet the specific needs of different skin types.
We explain below which active ingredients or essential oils you can use, depending on your skin type or current mood, to personalize your face cream or body lotion.
