It's easy, fun & no chemicals added - you can whip up your own Honey Cuticle Cream in less than five minutes flat. And I love re-using metal Altoid tins! How perfect is that?DIY Honey Cuticle Cream
1.5 ounces beeswax
3 ounces apricot kernel oil
1 tablespoon honey
Melt the wax and oil in the microwave, stir in the honey, and pour into tins or other containers.
that's awesome! thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI guess this is a silly question, but does it ever go bad? I have horrible cuticles so I would probably use it up quickly anyway, but it's always good to know :)
ReplyDeleteI love this idea!!!! Thanks for sharing.

I've not had it go bad, but I imagine it could. I keep natural mixes of any kind in the fridge to be safe...
ReplyDeleteWhat type of oil coule be used instead of Apricot Kernel oil. I can't see myself buying that just to make a small batch of this. Would something like walnut oil or grape seed oil work?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that you put it in an altoids tin. Such a cute idea!
ReplyDeletewhat about exact measurements? just go with the flow? and how long to melt in microwave?
ReplyDeleteI love the tin and what's in it.
ReplyDeleteI just made this, and for the most part, it's great, buuuut...the honey would not integrate with the oil/wax mix, and instead congregated in a big unbreakable mass in the bottom of the bowl. Should I let the wax mix cool longer before stirring it in?
ReplyDeleteI love that idea! Thanks. I am going to try it.
