If you have been following me on Twitter or Facebook you will know
that last week I made some Lavender Solid Perfume. If you like
lavender you will love this perfume. It smells divine.
I make this (as well as all of my goodies) from scratch in my soap shop.
This perfume takes time to make. First I use dried lavender and put it in
sunflower oil, and then I place it out in the sun to infuse the oil.
When the oil has been outside for about a month I bring it in and stain it
then I get all my ingredients together including the lavender oil, local
unrefined beeswax, jojoba oil and vitamin e. I then heat it all up until
it is melted at this point I add a large portion of essential oils of French
Fine Lavender and Bulgarian Lavender to the heated mix and then pour.
You don't want to add the essential oils when the beeswax mixture is too
hot because the oils can burn off and we don't want that. Then pour and use.
To use this perfume apply it as needed on pulse points. It has also been
known to help people sleep so you could use it as a balm before bed.
I hope that you enjoy it.
