Looking for a more natural skin care alternative

I’m looking to replace my Nivea for Men facial creams with more natural products with the same or better benefits. I’ve met a young lady that creates custom lotions and such from all certified pure materials. So, I wanted to get some thoughts on this.

Besides the chemical makeup, the Nivea basically contains:
Co-enzyme Q10
Vitamin A
Vitamin E
SPF 15

The stuff she made for me contains:
Pure African shea butter
Carrot oil
Myrrh
Frankincense

How’s this sound as a viable alternative?

As a side note, the soap I use for daily bathing is a Basis vitamin bar with several skin nourishing vitamins.
