Step 1: Heat & Melt the Oil Phase
In a heatproof container, combine jojoba oil and Olivem 1000.
Heat using a double boiler until Olivem 1000 is fully melted.
Step 2: Heat the Water Phase
In a separate heatproof container, warm the aloe vera juice until it reaches the same temperature as the oil phase (about 70°C / 158°F).
Step 3: Emulsify the Mixture
Slowly pour the heated aloe vera juice into the melted oil phase while stirring continuously.
Use a mini whisk or stick blender to mix for about 2-3 minutes until it emulsifies into a creamy texture.
Step 4: Cool Down & Add Active Ingredients
Allow the cream to cool to below 40°C (104°F) before adding heat-sensitive ingredients.
Stir in the turmeric essential oil and preservative, ensuring everything is well combined.
Step 5: Adjust & Bottle Up
Check the texture; if it feels too thick, add a little more aloe vera juice. If too thin, let it sit for a few hours to fully thicken.
Transfer the cream into a clean, sterilized jar or pump bottle.
Label with the date and ingredients used.
