Hello Fragrance Crafters,

Christmas is but a month away. Here are some facts and recipes to help you get started on your "scent-sual" gifts!

Beeswax balms are absorbent, contain no water and therefore need no preservatives (which are the ingredients which irritate sensitive skin) and protect longer and better than lotions.

Sweet Almond oil calms skin down after waxing or shaving and is extremely absorbent . This makes it a wonderful massage oil.

Oil of Lavender soothes irritations and dries up blemishes.

HOMEMADE MOISTURIZER

  • 1 c. Sweet Almond Oil

  • 1/2 cup Beeswax Pearls

  • 1 tsp. Vitamin E

  • 10 drops Oil of Lavender or Sandalwood

Melt the Sweet Almond Oil and Beeswax Pearls over low heat, remove from heat and whisk until cool. Add Vitamin E and Oil of Lavender or Sandalwood. Pour into a sterile jar and store in a cool, dark place.

 

CLAY MASK

  • 4 Tbsp. Kaolin clay

  • 1 Tbsp. Honey

  • 2 tsp. Milk

  • 4 drops oil of lavender, sandalwood or lemon

Combine ingredients, apply to face, wait 15 min. and rinse with warm water. Then apply a moisturizer.

 

 

CANDY CANE SOAP

  • Clam shell mold (holds 5 oz.)

  • Clear and opaque soap base

  • Red or green colorant

  • 1/2 oz. oil of Peppermint

  • paper plate

 

Spray paper plate with cooking spray (such as Pam). Melt 2 oz. opaque white soap base. Add 20 drops oil of Peppermint. Pour onto paper plate (dinner plate size). Let set until firm but still pliable (about 10 minutes). Melt 2 oz. clear soap base add 20 drops oil of Peppermint, stir. Spray white soap layer with alcohol.   Add a few drops of red or green colorant to clear base and pour over white soap layer.  Allow to become firm but still pliable. Peel away paper plate. Cut soap into 1/2" - 3/4" strips.  Twist into spirals or cut in half and make pinwheels by wrapping around a wooden spoon handle or with your fingers. You can also bend into "ribbon candy" shapes.
Melt 4 oz. clear soap base, add 1/2 tsp. oil of Peppermint. Gently stir. Allow to cool a few minutes, stir to prevent skin from forming. Then fill clamshell mold.  When a skin forms, soap is cool enough to add "candy" soap pieces. Slit skin with a knife and insert embeds. Spray top with alcohol. Close clamshell when soap is hard.

Note: If you pour soap into clamshell immediately after melting, it will warp the clamshell. Also, allowing soap to cool will prevent your embeds from melting.

This soap is really pretty!
