Place Broken pieces of solid ingredients in separate
jars and heat them in a pan of water, simmering until they have melted.
Measure the melted ingredients into a heat resistant basin over a pan of
simmering water. Measure and stir in the oils, but not the perfumed
essential oil. Pour the water (orange water etc.) into a heat resistant
container. Add the borax and heat gently until it dissolves. Rmove the
basin (melted wax and oils) from the pan and add the borax water. Mix
thoroughly . Place the basin in a shallow dish of cold water and continue
beating. Add the essential oil and beat until the mixture cools and
thickens. Transfer the cream into screw top jars.
