Can I add coconut milk to lotion?

[Cheirenya]

Can I? Will it stay good? I use preservative of course.

And what else I can put to lotions?

The rule of thumb is that you can sub out up to 12% of your water for milk of your choosing. Any higher than that, and the preservative may not work. Some people (probably very experienced) will say you can go higher than that. And then some people will say to only use 10% to be extra careful.
