No one wants to become their toddler self... if they do they will find it easier to use polyjuice potion and take a hair of a child. It is because of this ingredient, it isn't as frequently made as an aging potion which does not contain phoenix tears." She smiled at the boy.
"Now let's continue with the potion." she said and took two lacewing flies. "These are of the blue variety, because blue is the colour of youth." She added them to the potion. "Stir twice clockwise and five times counter clockwise." She said and demonstrated.
Well, a phoenix being
lost was not as sad to Em, but it still seemed a little cruel to sell the bird, and force it to leave its mate.
Althought, it wasn't surprising that Lafay would have a friend that was so mean. Emmaleigh picked up her quill to write down the next step.

Potions Lesson II
De-aging potion
(This formula lowers ages, but not mental capacity)
Ingredinets- 1 gallon of goat's milk.
- 1 tsp of crushed Yellow Moonstone
- 2 lacewing flies, Blue
- 10 Shrivelfigs
- 2 tbsp of chopped knotgrass
- 1 drop of Leech juice
- 5 drops Pomegranite juice
- 1 tsp bicorn horn, crushed
- 1 phoenix tear
- 1 daisy root, finely chopped
- 2 sprigs of Fluxweed
- 2 peppermint toads
- 1 chocolate frog
- 1 liquorish wand
Method
Step 1: Clean Cauldron!
Step 2: Fill cauldron with goats milk. (closest animal milk to mother’s milk)
Step 3: Crush moonstone with mortar and pestle. When it is a powder, stir cauldron as it is sprinkled in. (Yellow Moonstone energizes the milk, and causes regression)
Step 4: add lacewing flies. Stir clockwise twice, and counter clockwise five times. (Blue, the colour of youth.)
Then she carefully sketched out a diagram to remind herself about which way was clockwise, and which was counter clockwise. She carefully picked up her two lacewing flies, and placed the in her cauldron. She made sure to follow her diagram as she stirred her potion in the correct manner.
