r/DIYBeauty is a subreddit with 65k members. The community frequently discusses ingredients, diy, hair, formulation, and oil, and they frequently recommend/review body moisturiser and vanilla scent, and the most common flair used is question, formula feedback, question - sourcing, discussion, and preservative help.
r/DIYBeauty is no typical DIY beauty place! We create science-based cosmetic formulations that can be made at home without a full cosmetics lab. Not a general purpose skincare subreddit. Formulations posted here may not be used for profit.
