Basic Cleansing Cream
The recipe calls for 2 tablespoons beeswax, 4
tablespoons lanolin, 2 tablespoons herbal infusion
water (instructions follow), 3/8 cup olive oil, and 1/8
ounce scented oil (if desired).
Melt lanolin and beeswax in a double boiler over low
heat. When melted, add the olive oil. Remove from
heat and stir in scented oil. Stir continuously until cool.
It will thicken and become creamy. Store in a screw-top
jar.
Use this cream to clean your face. Apply a small
amount, massage into face. Place a hot cloth over face.
As the cloth cools, rinse it in hot water to heat it up
again. Do this several times. Remove all traces of
cleanser with a clean tissue. Use the herbal infusion to
pat on as a skin toner.
