 "Smells lovely and feels wonderful on your skin"

Mamaku and Karamu Balm
 This balm is excellent for any skin irritations, itchy bites, boils, chaffing etc

1) heat Karamu oil (Karamu leaves soaked in oil of your choice eg: rice bran, grapeseed or canola)
2) chop and crush mamaku
3) add crushed Mamaku to karamu oil and gently heat for 3-4 min
4) use small tea strainer to remove mamaku (this is still good to use on its own later - store in a airtight container)
5) add bees wax (approx 6-8 nip cups depending on amount of Karamu oil)
4) when bees wax is melted pour into containers
