Ginger Dream All-Over Body
Cream
by Amy Szetzo, New York
City
skill level: easy
cost: under
$5
craft time: 15 minutes
2-inch piece of fresh ginger
2 teaspoons
light sesame oil
2 teaspoons apricot kernel oil
2 teaspoons vitamin E
oil
½ cup cocoa butter
Ginger invigorates. Oil soothes. You can't
loose with this lush dry skin buster.
Preheat oven on lowest
setting.
Finely grate the ginger just enough so that you have about an 1/8
teaspoon of ginger "juice."
To obtain the juice, squeeze the freshly grated
ginger over a small bowl.
Place the ingredients (including the ginger) in a
glass container and heat just until the cocoa butter is melted and the oils are
blended.
Pour into a clean, dry container and store in a cool dry
place.
You can add a few drops of orange or oil for a nice twist.
