.	Naturally Nourishing & Revitalizing The Skin Google Images (NOTE: Completely Read All Mixture Instructions Before Doing) Some skins require nourishing, especially when exposed to the drying effect of weather. All the herbal recipes that follow are for use on normal skin. If your skin is sensitive or has a tendency to blemishes, do not use before seeking medical advice. Soothing Almond Oil Recipe Almonds are well known for their healing, nourishing and soothing effect on the skin and were used extensively in ancient Greece for herbal facial and hand creams. 40g (1 1/2 oz) ground almonds 1 litre (35 fl oz) Rose-water or rainwater 1 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon tincture of Benzoin (Styrax benzoin) Mix the almonds with the Rose or rainwater until the mixture resembles a fine paste. Then filter through fine muslin. Add sugar and a few drops of tincture of Benzoin (Styrax benzoin) and bottle ready for use. Cooling Cucumber Oil This is also natural, cooling in effect and is an excellent protection against sunburn. You will need: 2 ripe Cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) 1 litre (35 fl oz) cold water 1 litre (35 fl oz) rainwater 2 dessertspoons glycerine 1/2 teaspoon tincture of Benzoin (Styrax benzoin) Cut the Cucumbers into small pieces, including their rinds. Put them in a pan with the cold water. Bring to the boil gradually and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain and squeeze through fine muslin or a jelly bag. When cold, mix with the rainwater, the glycerine and tincture of Benzoin. Apply to the skin as required. Herbal Cold Cream Recipe A little of this applied every night before sleep will feed and revitalize your skin. 70g (2 1/2 oz) spermaceti 25g (1 oz) fresh beeswax 340ml (12 fl oz) sweet Almond oil 40ml (1 1/2 fl oz) glycerine 40ml (1 1/2 fl oz) Rose-water 40ml (1 1/2 fl oz) Cucumber juice Melt the spermaceti in a double boiler with the fresh beeswax and the sweet Almond oil. Stir continually with a wooden spoon or spatula. Once the ingredients have melted and amalgamated, add the glycerine, Rose-water and Cucumber juice. Stir until the cream is quite cold. Note: Cold cream derives its name from the very fact that it is stirred until it is cold. It is at the point when it sets that it becomes ready for use. Alternative Natural Cold Cream Recipe 1 log (4 oz) spermaceti 50g (2 oz) fresh beeswax 435ml (15 1/2 fl oz) Almond oil 25ml (1 fl oz) glycerine 25ml (1 fl oz) Rose-water 10 drops Rose essence (or any other fragrance preferred) Melt the spermaceti, beeswax and Almond oil in a double boiler. Pour into a basin and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula. Leave to set in the refrigerator. Pound for 45 minutes in a mortar, or blend in an electric mixer until it turns into a thick white cream, add the glycerine and Rose-water. Blend again for two to three minutes to emulsify the cream. Add the Rose essence and mix again for one minute. Refrigerate until it solidifies, and then bottle until required. Nourshing Revitalizing Night Cream Use this very rich and nourishing cream every night to keep your skin looking youthful and to help smooth out lines. It contains lanolin which is a waxy substance obtained from wool grease and is used widely in cosmetics for its moisturizing effect on the skin. 2 teaspoons beeswax 2 teaspoons lanolin 4 teaspoons Almond oil (Prunus dulcis) 2 teaspoons distilled water pinch of borax or 3 drops of tincture of Benzoin (Styrax benzoin) 2 capsules (1 teaspoon) Wheat germ oil (Triticum vulgare) Warm the beeswax, lanolin and Almond 011 in a double boiler until they have melted and combined. Dissolve the borax in the warmed distilled water, then allow both liquids to cool. Mix them together, then beat in the Wheat germ oil. Note: Add infusion of Comfrey (Symphy-tum qfficinale) or Marigold (Calendula officinalis) to assist cell regeneration. Anti-Wrinkle Revitalizing Lotion Recipe Drop 15 to 20 Poppy (Papaver rhoeas) petals into 280ml (10 fl oz) boiling water and allow them to infuse for approximately ten minutes. Filter or strain and then allow the liquid to cool before bottling. Use night and morning; it is especially kind to dry skin. Cocoa-Butter Neck Smoother 1 tablespoon Cocoa butter (Theobroma cacao) 1 tablespoon lanolin !/2 cup Wheat germ oil (Triticum vulgare) or Corn (%ea mays) or Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) oil 4 tablespoons water (optional) Melt all three oils in a double boiler until completely dissolved. (The addition of water makes the cream easier to spread.) Allow to cool, place in jars and refrigerate. Shake before use. The mixture may be cloudy but this in no way impairs the power of the cream.
