"Originally, I wanted to create a duplicate of Burt’s Bees
Poppy Seed Cleansing Cream, but the recipe got tastier and tastier, so I
ended up with something delicious enough to put on top of a muffin."
INGREDIENTS
1/2 ounce organic semolina
1/3 ounce muscovado (fine brown) sugar
1 ounce organic orange water
1/2 ounce coconut oil
1/3 ounce vegetable glycerin
1/3 ounce unrefined beeswax
10 drops rosemary leaf extract
3 drops vitamin E oil (pure tocopherol acetate)
METHOD
1. Lightly grind the semolina and muscovado sugar in a mortar.
2. Carefully heat the orange water in a stainless steel saucepan and set aside.
3. Using a double-boiler method, ,melt coconut oil, glycerin and beeswax until liquid.
To melt ingredients using double-boiler method, place them in a clean stainless-steel saucepan with a wooden handle (for the easier handling) and set it over a bigger saucepan filled with very hot but not boiling water. Make sure the water is not boiling, as droplets of water may fall into your melting ingredients and make clumps. For the same reason do not cover the top saucepan with the lid because droplets of water may condense under the lid and drip into the melting mass. Place the large pan on very low heat. As the ingredients begin to melt, stir them carefully with a wooden spatula. When the ingredients are liquid and mixed well, remove the bowl from the heat.
4. Remove from the heat and now melt the beeswax to the same temperature as the oil.
5. Pour the hot orange water into the melted oils, beating in the vegetable glyceriningredients with a fork until fluffy and uniform. Blend in the sugar and semolina mix, carefully adding the rosemary leaf and carrot seed extracts and vitamin E.
6. Mix thoroughly, transfer into a jar, and resist the urge to eat. Instead, apply daily as your morning cleanser, especially in winter. This blend can be stored up to two weeks in a cool dry place or refrigerator.
