1. The lotion stopped working and it wasn't the lotion
Most body lotions are 70% aqua. Aqua is the fancy name for water. The problem with water is it goes on, feels lovely, then evaporates.
Younger skin holds some of it. Older skin has fewer of the oils that keep moisture in, so it leaves faster. The lotion didn't get worse. The skin underneath it changed.
"I've tried a multitude of skin oils and lotions and spent a fortune on coctions of beef tallow, castor oils, essential oils, olive oil, jojoba oils, coconut oil, cocoa butters, beeswax... NOTHING worked for me until I got this wonderful product. My search is over."
