Strawberry Cream Moisturizer
Ingredients
- 1/2 oz. white beeswax
- 1 1/2 oz. sweet almond oil
- 1 oz. apricot kernel oil
- 1 oz. strawberry juice (or apricot or peach or honey-dew melon)
- 8 drops tincture of benzoin
Directions
Wash, drain, and mash 4-5 large strawberries. Squeeze out the juice and strain through muslin or cheesecloth. Heat the beeswax and the oils together in a double boiler until the wax is melted. Remove from the heat and add the juice quickly. Beat the mixture until it is fluffy. Add the benzoin and beat until it is cool. You must beat the mixture until it cools or else it will separate. Apply a small amount as desired.
