Instructions
Wash off the dandelion flowers, daisies and moss.
1 handful of dandelion flowers,
1 handful of daisies,
1 handful moss
Cut the dandelion flowers and daisies into small pieces.
Mix them with 200 ml of oil and salt.
1 pinch of salt,
250 ml almond oil
Then cut the moss into small pieces and put them in a pot together with the flower mixture.
Heat the ingredients until they begin to bubble.
Leave the mixture to infuse for another half hour over a low heat.
After the infusion time, allow the oil mixture to cool briefly and strain it. The flowers can now be discarded.
In the remaining oil, heat the beeswax until it has dissolved. Do not boil, only warm up!
20 g beeswax
Add the honey. Mix the oil mixture and stir until everything is well combined.
1/2 tsp honey
Add the aloe vera gel to the warm (no longer hot) moss ointment and stir the ingredients.
2 tablespoons aloe vera gel
Pour the liquid into the cream jars.
Now let the cream cool completely and solidify. This takes at least 2 hours, but it is better to leave it overnight.
