Hi, is it normal for shampoo / conditioner bars to lose their scent after several uses? im halfway through my bars and I noticed that their scent fades out.
I really need your answer 😢 I made my own lip balm to sell..ingredients was beeswax, coconut oil, unrifinded sweet almond oil. Castor oil ,Shea butter ,cocoa butter and vitamin e . My lips became very soft but after weeks my lips darker i dont know What the problem. Please help me .. 😢
Hi Marie. This was wonderful. Could you do a dupe for LUSH Body Mists? SLEEPY? Im interested to learn about the alcohol to essential oil ration. Thanks so much!
Just wanted to thank You for inspiration (videos in Your channel). I am actually trying to develop a wax emulsion for icon painting. It is called cold encaustic (punic wax, etc.) There are some (very rare) products on market, but overpriced and I want to adjust the emulsion completely for my painting technique. Thanks and greetings from Finland!
I used to enjoy picking wild strawberries in Wales. You can plant them in your garden. They have an amazing strawberry fragrance. They are small and sweet to eat.
I often use essential oils but agree if not used wisely they can be dangerous. For example, my friend showed me a video that suggested using Oregano essential oil directly on the skin. But I explained to her if it is put directly on the skin it can cause a severe burning rash. Even if you use a carrier oil with it there is still a need to take care.
This is very scientific demonstration. Yet working with natural products. I wish I was this bright and intelligent when I was in my early twenties like the presenter is. I'll subscribe and share on Facebook, thumbs up! Thank you! But the FREE DIY Skin Care for Beginners e-course! signing up for it didn't work for me.
I use a soap that I make from 72% olive oil and 28% coconut oil. 5% superfat. It doesn’t leave any greasy film at all on glassware and it’s incredible for washing dishes. Cuts through grease and is soft for hands. Great lather too.
I really love all the resources you provided in this tutorial. I have not worked with spreadsheets for quite some time, and it was fun to remember how to use them properly. Then, the references on your website are amazing. I like the surfactant active ingredients you listed along with relevant information. What a lot of time and effort you have put into this. I am grateful for your videos, channel, and websites as I try to make my formulation process easier and more organized.
Thanks for this presentation. My goal is to add fragrance that's super subtle to my tallow balm/lotion. I process 100% grassfed suet into tallow and the lotion contains organic cold pressed high quality olive oil too. I used the wet method to process the tallow and adding 2 tablespoons of olive oil to 4 ounces of tallow makes for a beautiful lotion with a hint of beef and olive oil scent. I am hoping to mask these odors and wonder if these hydrosols can be the key. Thanks and i look forward to hearing from you! Richard
just found your channel hi! I plan to use your body butter recipe with scent but Im afraid to use essential oil because I had sensitive skin, can I use hydrosol to my body butter?
I am very intrigued by your use of e-wax at the end- where you use less than 25% of oils by weight to get a thinner lotion that is also very rich. I see the emulsions might not be as stable, but you may get me to come over to your paid side to hear more about this! I love rich lotions, but I hate the way they act in pump bottles, etc.
Just found you and about to start making my family safe alternatives. My grandbaby has super sensitive skin and little eczema flares. I Would this be suitable for all ages or do you recommend something else for babies and toddlers? Also what about a conditioner recipe?
This link video is not mine. Will you watch everybody preservative making the video? I believe this video will be 1000% useful for beginning formulators.
