Early in January I infused organic sweet almond oil with the rosehips we had foraged on a morning walk through the vineyards.
The rosehips were washed, dried, placed in the oven on the lowest setting possible for 3 to 4 hours.
Once cooled, they were added to the oil and allowed to rest for a month in the fridge.
The result is floral, fruity scented oil with the glossy shine of stained glass, the light refracting through the Kilners jar.
What a wonderful place to start preparing a lip balm!
To which I add...
Bio capping beeswax
Bio honey
Vitamin E oil
Our own Hectors organic olive oil
Organic sweet orange essential oil
Organic shea butter
Organic rosehip seed oil
I can not wait to share this with friends and next year I may prepare a batch to add to
