Natural Cold Cream Recipe
- 1 ounces by weight grapeseed oil
- 1 ounces by weight meadowfoam oil
- 1 ounces beeswax
- 2 ounces distilled water or aloe vera juice
- 1 ounces vegetable glycerine
- {1/2 teaspoon optiphen preservative if you want}
- 10 drops essential oils if desired {I like carrot and geranium}
Melt the first 4 ingredients together in a double boiler.
Take off the heat and beat the mix with a stick blender. Add in the glycerine, preservative and essential oils during this last phase.
Keep in the fridge if you decide not to add a preservative. Lasts two weeks without a preservative and up to a few months with the optiphen.
