Welcome to Natural Beauty.. This page is going to consist of some Beauty recipes I use alot.. Not the usual wax stuff you buy in the store, but all natural recipes.. Most are easy to put together, but because of the all natural ingredients, they may have to be put in the refrigerator. Most of these recipes I found in a book, but some where just concoctions of mine.. *S* On to the recipes..

Moisturizing Cream
1/4 cup cocoa butter
1/4 cup sweet almond oil
1/4 cup olive oil
5 to 6 drops essential oil
Combine all ingredients in a double boiler and warm them until the cocoa butter is completely melted. Remove from the heat and stir until the mixture is cool and stars to gel; then allow it to rest as it finishes setting up.
When it's cool, the mixture should be creamy. If it separates, then use a hand mixer n low speed and beat until it's smooth. Store in a decorative container.
