Transfer it to a small porcelain or horn container. Take one piece each of lapis lazuli and phoenix sand (each about the size of two soybeans; sift the phoenix sand and dry it thoroughly; do not heat the lapis lazuli), grind them together, then add borneol (as much as desired) and a small amount of musk. Mix all four ingredients into the ointment and stir until uniform.Apply a dot about the size of a millet grain to the inner corner of the eye, spread it evenly with your finger, tilt your head back, and wait until the ointment feels slightly astringent. Then, dip a soft piece of silk in boiling salt water and gently wash the area.
