First you will need to infuse the dried flowers in the hemp seed oil. If you have fresh flowers, let them dry for at least a day or two before infusing.
Place the dry flowers in a glass jar and cover it completely with oil.
Put the lid on the jar and store in a dark cupboard for two to four weeks, shaking every couple of days to keep everything submerged.
Strain the leaves with a strainer, cheesecloth or an unbleached coffee filter. The infused oil is now ready to use in this facial bar recipe.
If you want to speed up the infusion process, slowly heat the oil in a slow cooker on low heat for 24 – 48 hours.

Combine the beeswax, shea butter and the infused oil in a microwaveable jug and heat for 30 seconds at a time in the microwave until the beeswax is completely melted. Stir in between each heat burst. This process could also be done in a double boiler.
Add the essential oils and the vitamin E oil and mix thoroughly to combine.
Pour into the moulds and let sit overnight or until they are fully solid.
Store at room temperature, in a cool, dry place.
To Use - Rub the facial bar between your hands until it starts to melt. Then, rub it onto your face.
It is best to use this bar at night to allow the oils to fully soak into your skin.
