Shiv Garima from India

I'm very happy. I created a Face moisturizer!!! My first trial... Oh mam, it feels so good.. I tried before and my emulsion failed and then I recreated the formula with your help and it came out this.. I'm so happy.. I have learnt so much from this, I'm sure it will get much better with practice...
