1 cup of aloe vera gel
1 teaspoon of lanolin 1 teaspoon of pure vitamin E oil
1/3 cup of coconut oil
1/2 ounce of beeswax
3/4 cup of almond oil
Up to 1 and 1/2 teapoons of essential oil of your choice or more to prolong scent
Place aloe vera gel, lanolin and vitamin E oil in a blender or food processor. Place coconut oil and beeswax in a 2 cup Pyrex measuring cup, microwave on high for 30 second and stir. Repeat in ten second blocks until fully melted.
Stir in almond oil, reheating if necessary. Run blender at low to medium speed. As soon as you have a cream-like consistency, stop motor, add essential oils and pulse blend. Transfer cream to glass jars while still warm because it thickens quickly.
