Ginger invigorates, and oil soothes. Try this double dose for dry skin.

Ingredients

  • 1 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 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.
