Ginger invigorates, and oil soothes. Try this double dose for dry skin. Ginger is used for its warming and invigorating properties in topical preparations, making it useful for massage oils and creams.

Ingredients

  • 2-inch piece of fresh ginger
  • 2 tsp. light sesame oil
  • 2 tsp. apricot kernel oil
  • 2 tsp. vitamin E oil
  • 1/2 C. cocoa butter

Directions

Preheat oven on lowest setting. Finely grate the ginger just enough so that you have about an 1/8 tsp. of ginger "juice." To obtain the juice, squeeze the freshly grated ginger over a small bowl. Place the ingredients (including the ginger) in a glass container and heat just until the cocoa butter is melted and the oils are blended. Pour into a clean, dry container and store in a cool dry place. You can add a few drops of orange or other essential oil for a nice twist.Â
