Rose Water Cold Cream {Borax-free recipe from 1867}

This rose water cold cream is one of my favorite historical products at the moment. It's silky texture and richly moisturizing properties, have me reaching for it on almost a daily basis this winter. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RECIPE NOTES -Rose oil is an amazing oil for the skin (especially aging skin), but feel free to add other essential oils to this recipe to suit your skin and budget. Lavender is another wonderful, low-cost option. -The original recipe used spermaceti (a waxy, whale oil product), which I have replaced with jojoba oil as it has similar properties. This may mean the cold cream is slightly more fluid than the original product. I love it's texture, but if you want a stiffer cold cream try adding more beeswax to the mixture. -Shelf-life for this product is a couple weeks if left on a counter. Storing it in the fridge between uses will help prolong it's shelf-life. If you want it to last for longer on a counter-top, you will need to add some sort of broad-spectrum preservative (such as Liquid Germall or Optiphen plus) -I've discover the trick with emulsifier-free, water-based cold creams (i.e. recipes that contain neither borax nor emulsifying wax), is to add the rose water extremely slowly. Only add small drops at a time and beat it constantly. The cream should be at room temperature by the time all the rose water as has been added, and it is a good idea to continue beating it for a minute or two longer than you think you need. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 1898 Rose Salve ~ DIY Victorian Beauty Recipe    • 1898 Rose Salve ~ DIY Victorian Beauty Recipe   Whipped Shea Butter ~ My Grandmother's (other) Favourite Handcream    • Whipped Shea Butter ~ My Grandmother's (ot...   1910 Face Powder    • 1910 Face Powder   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MUSIC Under My Oak Tree Johannes Bornlöf ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FIND ME ELSEWHERE: My Instagram:   / thelonghairedflapper   My Clothing Line / Etsy Shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PhonographF...
