Cleansing Creams

Process

1. Melt the oils and waxes (beeswax, coconut oil, and mineral/olive oil) in a bowl over a pan of boiling water (double boiler).

2. In a separate bowl, mix cucumber juice, glycerine, borax, and green coloring. Heat gently until the borax dissolves completely.

3. Once both mixtures are warm and molten, add water drop by drop to the oil mixture with continuous stirring.

4. Stop heating and mix the contents of both bowls thoroughly until the mixture thickens and cools.

5. Transfer the cream to a clean container and store under refrigeration.

6. Note: Make small batches at a time, as cucumber juice can spoil quickly at room temperature.
