Mix together the avocado, lemon juice, and lemon zest and set aside.
Mix together the oil and beeswax in another glass measuring cup. Place
the glass cup in a pan of water, making a water bath. Heat the oil-beeswax
mixture in the water bath over medium heat until the beeswax is melted,
stirring occasionally.
When the wax is melted, bring the borax-water mixture almost to
boiling.
Remove the oil beeswax mixture from the water bath. Slowly add the
borax-water mixture to it, stirring briskly. Add the avocado-lemon mixture
and continue stirring.
Pour into a clean container with a lid. The cream will thicken as it

warm water. |
