Do you want it to be natural or not? Gel or lotion? If not, use the Carbomer 940. If so, use 1 fluid oz CS, 16tbsp oil (almond preferably), citric acid (1tsp) or Citricidal (25 drops), 2tbsp filtered beeswax, 5 drops essential oil for fragrance (if desired). Melt beeswax at low temp, add oil, let heat for a few minutes, add CS, stir until all is melted and emulsification will start, turn heat down to simmer and continue to stir for 10 mins. No more, no less. Remember to stir or else you may get an oil "pop". Take off heat, put in a glass or ceramic mixing bowl, add remaining ingredients and use a hand mixer to "whip it". And whip it good...lol! Pour the mixture into a container while still warm and 'voila' you have a great lotion! If you want it be more of a salve add another tbsp of beeswax up front. Hope this helps. I've been making this for the past year and it works great. It's a bit oily at first but the skin loves it! Have fun and let me know if you have any other questions.

I have been trying to use beeswax beads, coconut oil, small amount of vit. E oil and colloidal silver gel. I am having a hard time getting the oils and waxes to blend with the silver water. It keeps separating, even when I bring it to a very high temperature in a double broiler. Is there some sort of natural agent that would break down the oils so that they can mix with the water. When the "gel" sets up at the end, I have a hard top of waxy stuff and then silver water liquid at the bottom. I would love any ideas.
