Cucumber Facial Cream

Cut cucumber into small pieces and puree with a food processor. Strain puree through a strainer lined with cheese cloth. Melt wax in a glass or enamel double boiler over medium heat. As soon as the wax is melted, slowly add the oil, drop by drop, stirring gently. Add strained cucumber and blend thoroughly. Remove from heat and cover pan with a clean towel. Let mixture cool slowly to prevent it from crystallizing. Stir only once or twice while cooling. When mixture is completely cool and smooth, store in an airtight glass container in the refrigerator. This will keep for about two months.
