Update:
I've been using this for 2 weeks now and skin loves it! And can highly recommend anyone give it a go.
I only need to use a very small amount so one batch is going to last me several months. I started just at night be it feels great on my skin so I use it in the morning now too. It cost me a couple of dollars to make so it makes sense rather than buying products.
The skin absorbs everything we put on it so it's important to me that I don't put anything on my skin that I wouldn't eat. I know I'm not putting anything on my skin that could do me harm.

quoting nevent1q…5rvjTodays project: Honey Tallow Face Cream
Super easy to make!
![]()
80g rendered tallow
40g local raw honey
20g castor oil
50 drops pure Frankincense oil
Add them all in together and blend with a stick blender. You can melt the tallow if you want to and mix the honey into the warm tallow first but then you need to chill it for 30 min until semi firm before whipping for the best results. I'm really happy with the chuck it all in method.
I've found I only need the very smallest amount to get a lovely silky feeling when it's all rubbed it. I'm excited to see how my skin responds to it over the next fortnight. I might make a few tweaks to the next batch based on my results.
