RE: Making a HUGE batch of salve for a friend! (Main ingredient: LARD!) Best lotion ever! ♥
You always surprise me with these home-made stuff! I'm curious about those beeswax pastilles since I haven't really seen them around here. Then lard, i'm not sure what it is in our language. lol Anyway, I'm just talking by myself. lol
Thanks for sharing this. :)
The beeswax pastilles are just little pellets of beeswax. I buy mine online, something like this. (This isnt the specific one I bought, but you get the idea.
Lard is actually rendered pig fat. You basically take the raw fat from pork, melt it down on low heat and take the liquid and put it into jars. It is useful for cooking, of course, but I also like to use it for homemade lotions and deodorants, as it is very nourishing for the skin. :D
