you prefer oil or lotion? How much do you normally use in a season?
I try to keep on of each on board, so I have one of each. I buy the big
bottle of generic lotion and one bottle will last the season.
What is everyone's else favorite?
Actually, I like vegetable oil with a little brown food coloring. The big
problem is the lack of brown food coloring. So, I've learned to mix a
little red and green coloring, then mix it with the cooking oil.
Mazola works well. Peanut oil leaves streaks. I think the SPF is higher for
peanut oil also. Olive oil works well if one likes a Mediterranean
complexion, which I don't.
JohnH,
By the way, what size bottle of oil do you normally buy and what do you
pay? Do you notice a difference between brands? Do you ever use the
Safeway private label?
