Oil + plant + warmth = medical oil
Skin care products are simple and cheap to manufacture. There are two problems with the preparation:
1. When water comes into oil, oil goes bad very quickly. That is why no fresh plants may be used. They have to be dried beforehand.
2. Oil must not be overheated. Therefore prepare in a water bath.
Use the locally available oil as oil.
Take 1 unit of lemongrass leaves and 9 units of sunflower oil
You can also leave the pot with the oil in the shade for 3 days. You must then warm it up a little before straining.
Use lemongrass or leaves of the orange or lemon tree.
use them as described in the recipe above.
If you have, also add Elemi = incense resin. It gives your oil a good fragrance, makes it last longer and helps against wrinkles (anti wrinkle oil).

Read the story of the Good Samaritan.
A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him off his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man he passed by on the other side. So too a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritian as he traveled, came where the man was, and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on OIL and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. … Go and do likewise (Luke 10, 30ff)
