Here you can see my recipe to making a natural skin cream.

Calendula and Lavender are both powerhouses for skin ailments, you’ve probably seen them in so many skincare products too. They help to sooth and reduce inflammation on irritated skin such as eczema and acne.

• 3 tablespoons soy wax or beeswax

• 4 drops of essential oil of choice (eg Lavendar)

• 1 -2 cups Aloe Vera gel

• 1/4 cup Shea butter

Homemade Aloe Vera Gel:

• Leave Aloe Vera leaves to soak overnight to drain the yellow sap from inside the plant (alonin)—

• Remove the outer layer of the leaves with a knife to reveal the gel inside.

• Scoop out the gel and blend till smooth. Pour in a jar.

• Store in a cool dry place and/or Store in the fridge to last longer.

Cream recipe:

• Add your infused oil ( Put flowers and oil in a jar into a double boil setup or in water bath for 3 hrs med heat), Shea butter and wax in a bowl until melted down.

• Add Aloe Vera gel to the bowl and blitz until whipped.

• Put your cream in a jar and store in a cool dry place or fridge and use.
