1 oz Glycerin
1 oz Witch hazel

SOOTHING CUCUMBER CREAM

** This cream is soothing for simple cases of windburn, sunburn, insect
bites, or poison ivy and it even calms the ravages of air pollution if you
apply it right after clensing. As with the creation of any creams, remember
the lessions learned from making mayonnaise, slowly, very slowly, add the
oil, drop by drop to the wax.
Antiaging Cream: Smooth a bit of this antiwrinkle prep every night around
the tender skin of your face and neck. Combine ingreds in a class or
ceramic bowl and gently whisk until thoroughly combined. Store in tightly
sealed container at room temp. It should last for at least 1 mo which is
about when you will want to make up a new batch. To Use: Massage into skin
around eyes and mouth using a circular and upward motion. This motion will
counteract the natural droop of gravity.
Soothing Cucumber Cream: Cut cucumber into chunks and puree in food
processor. Strain through strainer lined with cheesecloth. Melt wax in
small bowl in the top of a glass or enamel double boiler over med heat. As
soon as the wax is melted, slowly add oil, stirring gently. Add strained
cucumber and blend thoroughly. Remove the pot from heat and cover with a
clean kitchen towel. Let mixtue cool very slowly to prevent crystals from
forming in the wax. Stir mixture once or twice until cool. When completely
cool and smooth, store in airtight glass container in refrigerator. Will
keep 60 days. 4 oz Big Savings
