Secrets of Making Your Own Cream

Love rich lotions and creams but don't have the budget for them? Make your own! It's easy! Warm a tablespoon each of beeswax, lanolin and cocoa butter, and a teaspoon of glycerin. Add an essential oil, such as calendula, a quarter teaspoon of borax, and a little herb infusion. Choose any herb you like, such as lavender if you want to relax, or comfrey if you have tight muscles. Mix well, over a gentle heat, until you have a smooth, silky cream, and then store in a clean jar or bottle. Because this cream is cheap to make, not to mention all natural, you can use tons of it without feeling guilty! Perfect, since us girls tend to feel guilty about too many things anyway!
