Cream Base with Jojoba


Average Product Rating: 4.9 / 5 (Based on 22 Customer Reviews)


Paraben Free
Fortified with Sweet Almond and Jojoba Oils, our luxurious Cream Base provides deep, long-lasting moisture protection that softens even the driest skin. This base has been specifically formulated to be extremely robust. Essential Oils, fragrant oils, botanical extracts and various raw materials can be added in order to customize each product.

Usage: We recommend that no more than 5%-8% or 50-80 ml of any essential oil be added to a Liter our cosmetic bases. Exceeding this amount may destabilize bonds between the ingredients. Over time this may cause our bases to lose some of their luxurious properties including viscosity, smooth feel and rate of absorption.

This cream is amazing and at an amazing price. It is very thick so it's perfect for adding eso. However I do use it alone and love it as well. Its thick but absorbs easily into the skin, within 30 secs of applying your skin feels hydrated with no sign of greasy residue.

I made a fantastic facial moisture "pudding" by adding some cucumber extract pwd & distilled water. It's good for many skin types & has a toning/lift feel on the face. My clients favorite moisturizer!

This is an Excellent cream! Leaves skin very soft and smooth while absorbing quickly. Takes scent very well and everyone I gave samples to LOVED it! I like the thickness of this cream. With winter coming a lot of people want something a bit more substantial and this fits the bill. I can use this as stand alone or add small amounts of other oils to it and it holds up well.

I'm just starting out actually making my creams, but using this base was a breeze. I added Rosemary EO I gave samples to a few of my coworker to get their feedback and one of my coworkers have already put in an order. I love the cream. It absorbs wonderfully and the non-greasy feels is an added bonus. This is an exceptional cream base and their is absolutely nothing that I would change about it. Thanks alot!!!!

This jojoba cream is ultra thick and ultra luxurious...I love it for many reasons..but the most important is the quality of the product..it is very thick but I think that is wonderful because it allows you to add oils, extracts, hydrosols, eo's, etc allowing you to formulate a variety of fabulous creations..in the summer months I add hydrosols for a lighter feel and winter months I add oils for a heavy body butter feel...you won't regret this purchase and your clients will be begging for more! I sell out every time...NDA rocks!

I absolutely love this cream base. I am brand new to this and making my own cream with this base and some essential oils was a breeze. It is very rich and I used aloe vera juice to water it down a bit. I highly recomend it especially to all of you out there like me who don't quite know a lot about making creams!

This is the third type of body-moisturizing product that I have tried from ND. My problem so far is that the body butter and lotion have been thicker than I have wanted and I found them hard to blend. I was surpised when this came in a tub instead of a bottle, but that prompted me to put it in the boston plastic jar instead of a bottle. I found this very easy to blend with. Then I was delighted by using it. It goes on light, absorbs quickly, and leaves my skin silky for a full day, which is practically a miracle in the Arizona summer. I happened to use a FO instead of an EO with it, so I don't know if it affected the lingering effects of the scent, but the scent lasts all day too! May be my favorite ND discovery, yet!

I have always been very limited in my use of this cream base. Only recently did I branch out beyond therapeutic use. I used the base with fragrant oil and some silk powder. My clients raved for weeks. The silk powder is a perfect addition to the base- gives a rich luxurious feel. I give it five stars.

At first, I put few drops of rosewood and cedarwood and I wasn't satisfied with the scent and I just need to put some more to make it my own. But when I added few amount of Rose Geranium Floral Water and strawberry fruit extract, I can't beleive that I made my very own cream.. I love it!! I also been using this on my face and the result is amazing especially this winter season. I have to see how it will go on my face on summer. Love this product so much.

It is cold here this winter in New York and the lotions I used before are just enough. It is good lotion to use in cold and dry weather. It feels thick but left skin feel smooth. All said and done, it is a good protective body and facial lotion.

Very thick but this allows you to add a lot of E.O's which I love. And I recommend adding a floral water to it if you like it a bit thinner. For really dry skin I just use it straight up. Anyway you look at it this is a wonderful lotion is far superior to any other I have tried. Great price too!

I have been purchasing bases from many different companies and experimenting. When tested by family, friends and co-workers, this base won every time as the favorite. Most of the time it has been a landslide victory. In my recent blind test, it even beat the Ultra Premium Cream. (The Ultra Premium won every time though, when the testers were given the ingredient listing with each product.) I will be back again and again for more - because I keep running out! Keep up the good work!!

I use to work with the formula without almond oil and just loved it. I feel it is too bad NDA is not carrying it anymore, since I have clients allergic to nuts. Also, I work with small children and use this wonderful cream to introduce them to aroma. Too bad I will have to find another product without the almond oil.

This base is AMAZING ... I made hand and body creams with New Directions Essential Oils for all my friends and family for Christmas and people have not stopped talking about this AMAZING lotion! Of course adding the right essential oils does help but everyone thinks this is the creamiest and most moisturizing lotion they have used ever! I especially love adding rosemary and mint essential oils for rough elbows and feet or try tea tree and carrot essential oil for especially dry skin! Used alone this cream base healed broken skin on both my elbows and my husbands! His were rough and dry from working in the garage and mine looked red and sore like carpet burns. After ONE APPLICATION within a few hours BOTH of us had soft supple skin on our elbows! I will continue to keep a supply of this cream base! Also works great for facial scrubs and exfoilants as well when soap product is added!

Great Cream if you're looking for something very thick. I use this one when I need something that isn't going to absorb as quickly, but will also leave a nice soft feeling as it does absorb. A little thicker than I was expecting though, this one requires a pump or an upside down bottle as it is very viscous.
