1 tablespoon honey (you can leave it out if you want)
8 tablespoons grated beeswax
200 ml almond oil
About 1/2 cup rose water
2 small clean jars or makeup pots
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the wax and honey in the oil and remove from the heat. Let cool slightly.
Pour the rose water into a small pitcher.
Add the rose water a drop at a time, whisking well between each addition. When you think the cream will no longer accept any more water (the little beads of liquid will refuse to incorporate), stop adding any more and continue to stir for a minute or two while the cream cools.
Pour the mixture into clean jars and let cool completely before placing lids on top. The cream will lighten as it cools.
This makes about 2 small jars. I like to recycle baby food jars, they are the perfect size.
