How to make it

  • Melt the wax in a double boiler.
  • Warm the oils and stir them into the wax well
  • Beat in the ivy decoction and allow the mixture to cool before stirring in each of the essential oils.
  • Spoon into jars and label.
  • *******************************************
  • a decoction is when you boil down something to extract the oils or value of what you are using. Makes it more intense like boiling down a sugar mixture. so boil the ivy extract to half its volume or buy it that way,
  • Emulsifing wax is a wax that is sold in beauty supply stores or health food stores, herbals places like that.
