Heavy Duty Hand Cream for Gardeners

2 Tbsp jojoba oil
1 tsp aloe vera gel
10 drops Vitamin E oil (or 4 capsules)
1 drop of your favorite essential oil for fragrance
Melt the first four ingredients in a stainless steel pot on the stove or use a glass pyrex cup in the microwave. Remove from the heat and beat until cool, adding the Vitamin E oil before mixture thickens. Continue beating until this mixture becomes creamy. Add your favorite essential oil, continue beating until cream has completely cooled. Spoon your cream into a jar, store in a cool dark place.
