This moisturizer is all natural and is quite like a food for the skin.
Ingredients:
1/2 c. chamomille and lavender tea
1/8 tsp borax (used as an emulsifier)
1/8 tsp powdered benzoin or 1 dropper of benzoin tincture (used as a natural preservative)
1/2 c. sweet almond oil or olive oil
1/4 tsp coconut oil
1 vitamin E capsule (200 iu)
2 tsp beeswax
Directions:
Make a strong tea using 1 pint of water to 1/2 cup of herbs. Let the tea infuse for 1/2 hour. In the meantime, heat in a double boiler the oils, beeswax and vitamin E until the beeswax melts. Strain 1/2 c. of the tea and add it to a food processor with the benzoin and the borax to mix well. While the food processor is running, pour in the oil mixture and watch the magic happen. Voila, we have our moisturizer.
