Are there any good homemade moisturizer recipes? (10pts to best working answer)?

I have horribly dry elbows.


I was wondering if anyone has a way to make them better without me having to go out to buy some expensive moisturizer. I want to be able to make it with some foods or such from my kitchen cabinet.


Anybody have any suggestions?


Its really appreciated!Are there any good homemade moisturizer recipes? (10pts to best working answer)?
Its called Almond Oil Wrinkle Cream.





1 tbs. of an infusion of comfrey leaves OR 1 tbs. of a decoction of comfrey roots


1 tbs. Lanolin


2 tbs. Sweet almond oil


2 tsp. water


2 tsp. cod liver oil





Melt Lanolin and almond oil in a double boiler. Add water and allow to cool. Mix in cod liver oil and comfrey. Apply gently to face and rinse off after 5 to 10 minutes. This is a RICH MOISTURIZER that boosts the water holding capacity of your skin and helps plump out wrinkled areas.





Might help soften your dry elbows.





Another recipe:





Cocoa Butter Hand Cream





4 tbs. Beeswax


4 tbs. cocoa butter


4 tbs. Almond oil





Melt together beeswax and cocoa butter. Add almond oil. Mix completely until smooth (may use blender)


Pour into a pretty pot or jar. Let harden and it is ready to use or to be given as a gift.Are there any good homemade moisturizer recipes? (10pts to best working answer)?
