Ingredients

1/4 cup pomegranate seed oil
2 tablespoon almond oil

1.5 tablespoon emulsifying wax NF
1 tablespoon cetyl alcohol

Method

* Put some water(1-inch level) in a wide flat bottomed pan and simmer it over low to medium-low heat.

* Put the hibiscus brewed tea into a small heat-resistant glass measuring cup and place the measuring cup in your prepared water.

* Now, put almond oil, jojoba oil, pomegranate seed oil, cetyl alcohol, and emulsifying wax NF into a second heat-resistant glass measuring cup and place that measuring cup in the prepared water as well.

* Heat both parts through for 20-30 minutes; this ensures the oil part is thoroughly melted.

* After 20-30 minutes, pour the water part(hibiscus tea) into the oil part. Remove both measuring cups from the water and set it on a dishtowel to insulate it from the countertop.

* Using an immersion blender, blend the solution together. After a minute or two of blending, leave it to cool for 10-15 minutes before returning to blend it some more.

* Blend the mixture a few more times until the cream is only a bit warmer than room temperature, and then mix liquid germall plus, rose essential oil and frankincense essential oil.

* Transfer the cream into an airtight container.
