Granulated Cold Cream

Take:
 1 ounce white wax

  • 1 ounce spermaceti,
  • 3 oz almond oil
  • 3 oz otto of rose


Dissolve the wax and spermaceti in the almond oil, by means of heat, and when a little cool, pour the mixture into a large wedgwood mortar previously warmed, and containing about a pint of warm water. Stir briskly until the cream is well divided, add the otto, and suddenly pour the whole into a clean vessel containing 8 or 12 pints of cold water. Separate the cream by straining through muslin, and shake out as much water as possible.
