I perchance came across the recipe by chance and have made my own ever since. My take on this is the glycerine, it gets in every where - I use a couple of drops with royal icing when making a formal cake it keeps the icing from drying out rock hard too quickly; it is also used in home made liqueurs to balance out any harshness created from the spirit and ingredients use and I believe one of its original uses was as an expectorant to soothe and get rid of any nasties on the chest. Now another use!<br /><br />Witch hazel is vey healing - its other name is bruise oil and very good to keep in if you knock yourself or have a young tumble tot. Helps to bring the bruising out quickly so that it aids the healing and discolouration that often accompanies bruising. <br /><br />I must admit though Rowan I love traditional scents like, rose, lavender, violet etc. So much more feminine. Have a go you won't regret it.<br />P.S. If you have any Asian shops close to you its well worth having a look in there to see if they have the Rosewater in store. Its often cheaper from this kind of source as is almond oil, coconut oil etc which are used in home made cosmetics and soaps. I quite frequently frequent our local one as the herbs and spices are a lot cheaper too.<br />xxPattypanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10533048669555871726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703817848238285099.post-21876401632273735712009-06-27T13:23:22.927+01:002009-06-27T13:23:22.927+01:00This sounds so cool and refreshing, I used to use ...This sounds so cool and refreshing, I used to use witch hazel on bruises when my children were small but have never done anything this glamorous with it:) Yet!Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.com
