Recipe instructions
- Dissolve borax in water in a microwave safe cup.
- Mix oil and beeswax in a microwave safe bowl and cook on med/high heat for several minutes, stirring every minute, until beeswax is melted.
- (you can also heat in a double boiler till melted) Remove from heat or microwave.
- When wax is melted bring the borax and water almost to boil in the microwave on high for about a minute.
- Slowly add the borax to the oil, stirring briskly.
- Add lavenderor rosewater, if using.
- I like to add lavender because it helps to regenerate the skin, is a natural antibiotic, and has a calming effect.
- Pour this cream into a container with a lid.
- This mixture will last virtually forever.
- To use, massage a small amount into your skin and then tissue off.
- This mixture is white and fluffy and will thicken as it cools.
- Note: For a lighter cream, put in in the blender after it has cooled and blend on high, adding 1 T water at a time.
- If you end up with excess water do not worry- just strain it off your\fluffed up\ cream.
