Aroma-Zone Comments: Borax is an irritating and controversial raw material. You can do without it by replacing the borax with an emulsifying wax. This cream should preferably be stored in a pump bottle to avoid pollution. Keep in a cool place and use within two weeks of preparation. You can improve preservation by adding ten or so drops of grapefruit seed extract or Cosgard.
