DIY (Do it yourself) Generic MSM Cream Recipe: MSM Face Mask Recipe

Generic recipe from the video above: 

To make 8 ounces of aloe vera mixture with 10% MSM you'll need the follow: 

• Kitchen scale
• 7.2 ounces of aloe vera gel (8oz x 90% = 7.2 oz)
• .8 ounces of No Boundaries Health and Wellness MSM Organic Sulfur Powder (8oz x 10% = .8oz)
• Blender 
• Spatula or mixing utensil 
• Plastic baggie 
• Air tight bottle or other container

Step 1: Blend the .8 oz MSM powder (this volume will change depending on the total weight of your end product, and the percentage of MSM you'd like to include - most lotions or creams will allow for 5 - 15% of MSM Organic Sulfur to be added without significantly changing the texture). Alternatively, you can use a mortar and pestle to crush the MSM crystals into a fine powder. Take care not to blend the scoop or desiccant found within each package. 

Step 2: Mix blended MSM into your aloe vera gel base. 

Step 3: Scoop the final mixture into a plastic baggie. Cut off one corner and kneed your cream/lotion into the air tight container of your choice. If the container is wide mouthed, you may not need to use a baggie to limit spills. 

Step 4: Try it out, you now know how to make your own MSM gel. Use whatever cream/lotion base you'd like. Consider coconut oil or shea butter for the main base. 

We know of no skin irritation or dermatitis as a result of using MSM topically, however, we are unable to provide specific dosing or medical advice. We do encourage you to follow up with your primary healthcare provider if you have specific questions or concerns.
