I have not yet tried any of theres recipies but Module 26: Making Beeswax Products (http://www.pinterventions.org/Beekeeping/English/Module%2026_Making_Beeswax_Products.PDF) from Progressive Interventions “Beekeeping in Africa” has a few recipes for hand creams and ointments.

Some more recipes can also be found on the following pages, though again I have yet to try any of them.

Bee Keeping for Dummies has one, 1 Part bees wax: 6 parts olive oil (I use EXTRA VIRGIN)use a double boiler. The volumes are equal, OZ:OZ. A little goes a looooooooong way. Kinda like brilcream "A little dab will do you".
