Organic Body Lotion Resources:

What kind of ingredient or process turns raw ingredients into a creamy body lotion without toxic chemicals?
I'm trying to make my own organic body lotions and I don't understand when I look at the ingredients on the bottle of this lotion I use, how do they go from water, coconut oil to making a creamy base lotion?
It has either "coconut fatty acid esters" or "coconut emulsifying wax". What is that and how can that turn say jojoba oil into a creamy body lotion? What do I need to add?
Or is it done by whipping? Will I need to buy a small manual whip? Or does it need to be done in an electric mixer or some sort?
Any recipes with how-tos will be much appreciated. In advance, thank you for your kind help!
That should read "mini whisk", sorry
Emulsification is the process, and there are many things that can be used as emulsifiers. Basically, an emulsion is a finely divided suspension of one thing in another -- the "creamy" blend you're describing. It's the fact that immiscible liquids -- oil and water (non-polar and polar liquids) -- are being combined that requires an emulsifier.
Yes, whipping is one way to emulsify. By that mechanical action you divide each fraction into such fine parts that they remain blended ... at least for a while. The faster the whipping action and the longer you do it, the more finely divided the stuff gets. Eventually, though, the tiny globules find one another and coalesce into larger globs, and the stuff gradually separates.
Egg whites are used as an emulsifier in cooking.
Soap and detergents are effective emulsifiers.
There are many effective emulsifying agents marketed to industry, but they're not natural products. For topical use, they don't have to pass the kind of rigorous toxicity tests that internal medicines or food products do.
You'll need to do further research to find an emulsifier to meet your needs, but maybe having some of this basic conceptual stuff will help ....
