The ingredients are available from most health food stores. Borax is found in the laundry section of the supermarket. Borax is used in this recipe as an emulsifier.

2 ounces distilled or filtered water
1 teaspoon vegetable glycerin
1 teaspoon borax
10 drops mint oil or other main oil of choice (optional)
40 drops grapefruit seed extract as a preservative

Combine the oils & beeswax in a double boiler & melt. Remove from the heat & pour in the remaining ingredients; mix with an electric handheld mixer until the cream is thick & creamy. Makes 3/4 cup. Store in a glass jar with a screw top. Discard after 6 months (or sooner if mold begins to grow).
