Avocado Moisturiser |
Thank you for this kind submission Sandie, it looks like it could be fabulous for dry skin! Thanks again Sandie!! This is really easy to make and great for dry skin - hope you like it. Sandie xxx Ingredients: 5g beeswax granules 5g cocoa butter 15ml avocado oil 30ml sweet almond oil 10g emulsifying wax 30ml marshmallow root infusion 5 drops sandalwood e/o 5 drops bergamot e/o Method: Heat beeswax, cocoa butter and base oils in a bowl set over a saucepan of boiling water (or double boiler) Dissolve the emulsifying wax in the marshmallow infusion Slowly add this infusion to the oil mixture, using a fast whisk action on your electric whisk for at least 10 seconds to thoroughly mix the water / base oils When your mix has cooled down to room temperature add your essential oils When your mixture has cooled right down but before it begins to set decant into dark jars and refrigerate. This has no preservative so will only be good for about 8 weeks. Note - when your amalgamation of water / base oils begins to cool it will 'split' but don't worry - just keep stirring and it will come good.
