Cold and Flu Bar from Craftbits.com http://www.craftbits.com/viewProject.do;jsessionid=a7sbDVIo2PC6?projectID=16 I made a number of these for family and friends for Christmas this year. They are simple to make and work wonderfully. I had a mild chemical burn (dry, itchy, flaky skin) on the back of my hand and rubbed this for 2 days on it. It completely disappeared!! So, even if you don't have a cold, this is great for your skin!! To answer morningsunshine's question below: I understood it as 1/2 tsp of Vicks per bar (approximately). So... I believe I used 2 pounds each of the beeswax, coconut oil, and cocoa butter and I added Vicks till it smelled strong enough to me. I may have added 4 tablespoonfuls - I can't remember for sure. Also, I used a no brand "Vicks" with ingredients that appeared on the label to be all natural. I hope this helps. They really are a wonderful skin product!! |
