ReplyDeleteCan i replace the vitamin E oil with olive oil or baby oil? They don't sell vitamin E oil here.
ReplyDeleteHi dear, I don't think so. cause vitamin E is a bit sticky type of oil whereas baby and olive oil is really oily. You can find the vitamin E oil in any drugstore like guardian or watson ya :)
DeleteIs it okay if I didnt put vitamin e? Ive learn to diy my face mist using youtube. She didnt use vitamin e? Is it okay? Oh and is it okay of I put a few drops of coconut oil instead of vitamin e? Its hard for mw to find it. Help :(
ReplyDeleteYes you can use coconut oil. If we use green tea alone, the effect wouldn't be there. because the oil plays the main role. You can use coconut oil but remember only a few drops of it. But beforehadn remember to try it on your hand and see if your skin is allergic to it or not :)
