Glycerin Free Skin Care

Skin Care without glycerine
Blending the lotion
Yesterday my Mom was taking tests
all day for allergies..... Wow over 70
years young, and to find out she has
allergies. There was young lady taking tests

all day was well and she had been in the
emergency room at the hospital numerous
times in really severe shape. One common
thing that many people have is an allergy to
glycerin.
So in the past 24 hours I have researched
an found out that gycerin is in almost
everything!
Here is a simple way to make a glycerin-free
lotion.

Recipe:
1 tablespoon cocoa butter
2 tablespoons beeswax
1/4 cup Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
1/2 cup Sweet Almond Oil

In a double boiler, melt all of the ingredients. The cocoa butter and beeswax will take the longest to melt.
When it has all melted, pour into a container, and let cool. Of course being an herb guy, I want to add essentail oil, which I will, but decided for omit for simplicity and allergies. Depending on your own preferences you can add 6-12 drops of your favorite essential oil.

I have been making a glycerin-free massage oil for a number of years that works great as a skin moisterizer.
