Spring is here, everything recovers, and the mint grows up in the wind. I planted mint in a small vegetable plot, and I felt that within a few days of budding, it grew a lot taller, and it grew really fast. At this time of the year, I pick mint leaves and make my own mint cream. The peppermint cream made by myself is made of fine materials, and it is really edible peppermint cream. The beeswax used for coagulation is not only a natural coagulant, but also has many functions. It can relieve pain, condense and create muscle, moisturize, and anti-wrinkle. Beeswax has been used in ancient times, and its history is very long. For example, it is recorded in Shennong's Materia Medica that beeswax can treat tough injuries and diarrhea, pus and blood. In Chinese medicine, beeswax can be used to treat burns and burns. Ulcers, in addition, it also has the effect of relieving pain, constricting and creating muscles, etc., so the peppermint cream made of beeswax can be used as a lipstick. The moisturizing and moisturizing effect is absolutely great, even the kind of lip balm that you can buy for a hundred dollars. incomparable. In summer, mosquito bites apply peppermint ointment immediately. If the child accidentally bumps into it, apply peppermint ointment immediately to reduce swelling and pain... 100 words are omitted here, anyway, I do it every year, my baby has been using it for several years To deal with mosquitoes and bumps, I have never bought a lip balm, and I never dry my lips with it.
