 It's consistency is wonderfully light and smooth and it's ready to be stored in a container.

Note:
 *I used sweet almond oil, but you may use coconut, olive or any other oil you prefer or you know is beneficial for your skin.
*For the sake of having a product as natural as possible, I used beeswax, but if not easily available, you may replace it with petroleum jelly.
*I used the essential oils of my own choice, you may omit or use any other kinds you prefer, just make sure they are safe to use on skin/face.Check out this list.
