Application:

  • To be used on the face at night after removing makeup in order to nourish and revitalize the skin.

Ingredients:

  • 5gr Emulsifying wax - Vegetable
  • 10 g Beeswax
  • 15 ml Organic Sweet Almond Oil

Instructions:

  • Gently heat Organic Lavender Floral Water or distilled water in a non-aluminium saucepan. Monitor the temperature and do not allow to boil.
  • In a separate saucepan use the double boiler method to melt the Self-Emulsifying wax.
  • Once the Self-Emulsifying wax is melted add the Almond, Avocado and Wheatgerm Oils, stirring continuously until combined and bring to 70°C.
  • Monitor the temperature of the oil and water mixtures until both are at 70°C.
  • While still in the double boiler, add the Lavender Water or distilled water to the oil mixture drop by drop and beat steadily.
  • Remove mixture from heat and stir until cool.
  • Add the Essential Oils to the cooled mixture at 45°C and stir until combined.
  • Place cream into sterilized jars and seal. Store away from extremes in temperature and light.

Caution:

  • Use lavender oil cautiously during pregnancy.
  • Lotion has a stronger effect when prepared with lemon, this mixture not suitable for sensitive skin.
