  1. Combine oil and stearic acid poswder in the top of a hot water bath.
  2. Combine the baking soda, glycerine and distilled water in a measuring cup and set aside.
  3. Heat the oil and stearic acid in a water bath on the stove top until the mixture is a clear liquid and all the powder has dissolved.
  4. Heat the water-mixture until just boiling (about 2 minutes in the microwave or 5 minutes stove-top).

  7. Spoon the cream into a bowl and allow to cool completely. Once cooled completely, stir and store in a clean container with a lid.
