This is a really nice handcream and quick to make. Very useful to have in the winter for cracked heels and finger tips.
Use 500ml aqueaus cream and more or less 100ml vaseline. Any brand aqueaus cream and any brand vaseline will work quite nicely. Melt together in microwave or in a double boiler on the stove. Once melted and looking milky, stir every so now and then while it sets to keep the water based cream and oil based vaseline mixed. Now you can add some fragrance, leftover perfume or essential oils. For colour you can add a few drops of food colourant. You can also split up the quantity while it is cooling down to put into different pots and add a different fragrance to each pot. Wait for the cream to be totally cold before you put the lid on.
All done and you will have soft hands and feet!
