CECIL ,you can do this another way too . take the Papaya and gut it up into small chunks and just air dry it - after a few days it should be very dry -with no water content at all - then you take the chunks and grind them down into a powder- then you take that powder and add it to cream of your choice - or if you want too ,you can add the powder to alcohol or glycerin or oil -you can even add the powder to lemon juice and get a double action of skin lightning - there is so many ways you can add papaya powder into your beauty routine. rice water + papaya powder . this makes me want to go out and get a food dehydrator and start experimenting.
Definitely trying! Looks so easy and simple! I’m surprised that the papaya didn’t go bad after a month. I really like the containers you store the extracts in, where do u get them?
Thank you for your sharing, I love all your DIY.for first recipe can I mix it with another fruits like mango,pineapple,lemon.and carrot please I need your response ,thank you so much for times.
Happy new year dear. I have been watching how you make extract. Please what are extracts use for? And when is the best time to use and quentity to use? Thanks
Thank you so much for your kind words. Unfortunately glycerine cannot be substituted with almond oil in this recipe. Unless you wish to prepare papaya infused oil.
Afternoon mam, I really appreciate the love you put in all your preparations. Thanks for sharing these amazing videos with us. I'd like to know these papaya extracts' shelf life, thanks once again. Please do take care
Hi cecil. I want to know why did you use Ethanol in the second method, and not the first one. As it's usage is better benetration of the product into the skin. Please help me with the answer.
Eu faço o extrato, mais uso a glicerina e o álcool de cereais, e a duração é por aí até 6 meses. Mais quero experimentar extrato com glicerina e água, será que têm boa duração?
Hi Cecil I am a fan of yours.. I’m planning to make my own facial cleansing etc..and your blog is such a big help. I wonder if I can used your recipe out in market .. it would be a big help if you could tell also where I could buy the basic tools to start up making it on my own and quality of ingredients where to order. Thank you for teaching us the simple method and learning from your blog inspire me to have a business on skin care.. I really have no single idea where to buy the tools for start up ang quality ingredients to order.. including this to your blog would be a big big help for me and all starters subscribing in your blog.. thank you so much
Thank you so much dear. Yes you can definitely use my recipes. If you intend to sell the product or even use it for personal use, I recommend that you carry out your own laboratory tests to ensure the safety of the product. Do you need a link to buy working tools or ingredients?
Hello Ester, how are you doing? You just said use Ethanol, let them know it should be Denatured Ethanol that they use. As per usual, another great video Queen. 🌹 I know one of your scales you bought from Lotion Crafter. Where did you purchase this one in the video please? Thank You 🌹🙏🏽🌹
All is well thank you for asking. Hope you are well too.I use pure, un-denatured ethanol. I got the scale from amazon, a few years ago: www.amazon.com/0-001Ounce-Weighting-MEIYA-Multifunction-Including/dp/B095WGHK72/ref=sr_1_17?keywords=digital%2Bscales&qid=1651261143&sr=8-17&th=1
Hello M'am ... thank you for such informative videos...I have made many products with the help of your videos...I have made the Neem Extract and will be making the Cucumber extract as well... I have a query ... The ethanol you have mentioned should be 96% ... I tried searching for it online...but everywhere the ethanol is 99.99% .... can I use that?
Very educative and we're forever grateful Cecil. Considering that this is made with 85% glycerin, can this extract be used as the water phase in making lotion? Thanks Cecil.
@ Gifty B U can't use it solely as the water phase per se... Use hydrosol for the max water phase then use the Papaya extract maybe 2 - 4% in the formulation
Hi , I have a doubt regarding the luke warm distilled water ,why for one extraction you have added before storing it for a month for other thing you have added after storing it for a month
Do you have a video on how you repurpose the leftover following the first method? About to filter mine and wondering how I can get more benefits God bless you, sister!
Thanks for sharing this ma. I ways look forward to watching new videos from you. But ma can I rub only this on my skin? Or I have to mix it with my cream.
Thank you so much for the continued support, You should mix in your cream. The recommended percentage to be added to a 100 grams cream or formulation is mentioned in the video
Ma'am can I make carrot extract the same way as shown in number 1 way with the use of glycerin? As in cut carrots into small pieces and then put glycerin in it keep it for a month? Also, can we use these extracts in soaps which have oil in it?
