Hula Honey Rose Cream

This is a delicious facial cream, perfect for drier skin types or just for dry patches.

Yield: Approx. 3.25 ounces

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Price Category: 2
Difficulty Level: 2
Shelf Life: 3 months

Ingredients:
10 grams jojoba oil
10 grams avocado oil
4 grams extra virgin olive oil
2 grams rose concrete
2 grams stearic acid
4 grams honey
60 grams distilled water
1/4 teaspoon borax
1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum

Blending Procedure:

Combine the jojoba oil, avocado oil, olive oil, rose concrete, and stearic acid in a large heat proof (I use Pyrex) glass measuring cup with a pour spout. Place the mixture in a hot water bath until the stearic acid is completely melted. Remove from heat. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then stir in the rose concrete until it fully dissolves. Set aside.
In a separate Pyrex cup, combine the water, borax, honey and xanthan gum. Place the mixture in a hot water bath for about 10 minutes to warm, then stir until the borax and honey dissolves completely. Remove from heat.
Stir the oils/waxes together to make sure they are evenly combined.
In the separate container, stir the water ingredients to make sure they are evenly combined.
Begin stirring the oil/wax mixture with an electric mixer on medium speed and add the water mixture as you stir. You will see the mixture begin to thicken as you blend it. Continue mixing until until Hula Honey Cream is thick and rich. It should take about 5 minutes, maybe a little less, for the mixture to fully form. Pour into clean jars and allow to cool before capping and labeling.
The shelf life of this product is about 1 to 3 months without a preservative and unpreserved, will last the longest if kept refrigerated between uses. You can extend the shelf by adding the preservative of your choice.
