I made these today as my first DIY bath project (but with different EOs because I don't have Fir or Spruce yet) and I am so in love!! I usually have dry skin that needs to be moisturised the minute I get out of the shower or bath but not after this one, plus I didn't feel anywhere near my slippery death so yay! Also, I've recently fallen into the DIY skincare ++ rabbit hole and have been digging deep xD. Your website, videos and resources are my absolute favourite. Thank you so much for everything you have shared, I really appreciate the thought and care you have clearly put in to make your information as user friendly as possible.

@u17673 7 лет назад

Just discovered your videos. Have been making my own bath,body, and face care products for years. Like how easy and simple your recipes are. And a big THANK YOU for using grams for measurements. So much easier and more accurate. Just made a batch of the bath tarts for my nieces! Will let you know the verdict!

You are very welcome! Grams and I are besties ;)

Humblebee & Me can I use a combo of poly 20 or 80 and beeswax? Or does it have to be an complete emulsifying wax?

@no-oneshome3083 6 лет назад

What a great idea. Be cool to make some that release glitter. And make about 15-20 different scents and colours and have it as a pick and mix if you make to sell.

@HumblebeeAndMe 6 лет назад

Hmm, yeah.... I'm thinking about the sort of mould you'd need. I suppose it would probably be easiest to suspend a bunch of glitter in a ball of bath melt base, and then encase that ball in a larger mould 🤔

Thank you for this great video! I’ve been wanting to make these, can I use Olivem 1000 to make these? Would adding glycerin help the oils absorb into the skin more or not? Thank you

@cynnaratregarth2009 7 лет назад

Super hot warm with a touch of cool. lol 💜💖 Bath melts are lovely, so this would work for me as I don't do baths often. I'm the shower girl. lol

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

Yeah, baths are generally more of a treat for me than my standard self-cleaning method :P Washing my hair in a bath... not my idea of a good time lol.

@cynnaratregarth2009 7 лет назад

Omg, I was laughing so hard, I almost missed the info about the Ewax. This is exactly what I needed. . Klutz, boom, no oil slick need apply.

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

@hilaryquinn8673 11 месяцев назад

If we used the same mold, about how many hearts per bath would you suggest? Nice video!

@lady3952 6 лет назад

Try using polysorbate 80. It also combines the oil with water. It's probably cheaper then waxes too. You could also add some baking soda to help it solidify. Seen some other comments after I made mine.

@HumblebeeAndMe 6 лет назад

Polysorbate 80 is also liquid, and we need these to be solid. Enough PS80 to solubilize these fats would result in bath goo instead of bath melts :P

@blessitbee9132 Год назад

I love how this is an easy recipe but I am curious as if you could mix these with bath salts?

@kathryncastanares525 7 лет назад

Thank you for all your wonderful recipes and being so gracious to share them with us all. i cannot wait for your book! i am so excited!! huge fan!!! these were so lovely. i made them after first seeing your recipe. my skin felt so luxurious.. i have a couple off topic questions. 1. I grow cucumbers in my garden and two of them seemed to have gotten too much water, or on the vine too long because they dont look so great:( almost a bit gross😝lol. they are yellow, fat, and one has small cracks. i dont want to just throw them out, but definitely dont want to eat them. i usually make a toner out of the hydrosol i make out of them, or blend them up to make masks and eye masks. my question is, do you think it would be ok for me to use these with the way they turned out for some sort of beauty concoction?lol 2. can you please do a video of that trans. powder creme from your blog? i would really love to see you in action making it and how it looks.

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

Hey Kat! I'm no gardener, so I really don't know. Probably? Just do be aware that anything using fresh botanicals should be used up within a day or two-concotions made from fresh fruit and veg and pretty much impossible for the home DIYer to preserve properly. I'd probably stick to single-use face masks or perhaps even soap-you could puree it up with some water and use that for the lye water (I'm guessing it'll turn brown, though, as most fruits/veg do when mixed with NaOH). Which recipe is my Trans Powder Creme?

@kathryncastanares525 7 лет назад

Humblebee & Me You are so right! when i first got into "DIYing", i thought i could make an 'all natural toner and just after like two weeks, it went bad. what happened was i followed this tutorial of another youtuber and she said that vitamin e will preserve it.lol thank goodness i didnt use it after the first day. i honestly forgot about it right after.lol and thank goodness ive found you!! someone i know that will give me all the correct info and the best recipes! anyhoo, i havent tried to make anything food related last no more than 1 to maybe 2 times.lol thank you so much for getting back to me about this because you gave me the most wonderful idea of how to use them! i just got started making home made soap from scratch and adding them to the lye sounds like it could work! ive only been making m&p so im excited to give this a shot for and experimental first try with extra ingredients.lol they are bad per say, they just arent beautiful green.lol so, fingers crossed. thank you so much again!

@kathryncastanares525 7 лет назад

Humblebee & Me oh and i almost forgot!! im sorry for the confusion, i didnt finish the word lol. i was meaning to say 'translucent powder face creme. i actually ended up making it yesterday afternoon and it is by far the best thing i have ever made so far! i was lucky to have most of the ingredients you had in this recipe and ended up getting the one i was missing in the mail right when i was starting to get discouraged.lol. thank you so so much for all you do taking the time teaching us how to make our own products at home!

@creeksidenaturalsoapssuds6479 7 лет назад

I can't wait to try these. Yum .. will mango be ok . My friend is allergic to shea

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

Yup, mango butter will work as well. Enjoy!

@karinm5318 13 дней назад

Have you thought of upgrading this formula? I just tried it as I want to make bath melts with eucalyptus in for winter, but they don't emulsify at all, unless I use boiling water and then there are "flakes" of butter on the surface. Is there anything that would make them emulsify better? Use more emulsifier maybe? TIA

@deborahhemsworth414 5 лет назад

Hi Marie, thanks for a great vid. Could you add some colouring to the melts? If so which ones would you recommend?

@HumblebeeAndMe 5 лет назад

Hmm. Something insoluble (like mica) will likely settle out of the melts as the set. You could try a wee, wee bit of lake dye and see how that goes :)

@deborahhemsworth414 5 лет назад

@@HumblebeeAndMe Thank you x

@beautybybredice9352 4 года назад

Thank you for video, so you didn’t add poly 80. Is the emulsifying wax going to help to keep the oils from floating on top?

@HumblebeeAndMe 4 года назад

Yup! Polysorbate 80 would help amplify that :)

@deedee9312 Месяц назад

Hello! From California 🎉 love your channel ! They cocoa butter that you recommend is no longer avail on Amazon so I’m wondering if your could kindly recommend the best cocoa butter to use for all my product’s and who to buy from to get the best bang for your buck? Tysm!

Could these be coated with anything to prevent sticking? Would a light toss in arrowroot powder ruin them? For gifting purposes

@HumblebeeAndMe 4 года назад

It's worth a try! You could also consider a soft clay, like white kaolin :)

@akjacques7 7 лет назад

What brand of EO are you using? Don't recognize the larger bottles and would like to try a new one. Thanks much!! PS really enjoying the channel and the blog!!

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

Most of my EO's are from New Directions-I have links to their shops around the world here: www.humblebeeandme.com/resources/. Happy making!

@akjacques7 7 лет назад

Humblebee & Me - thanks much! I found it after I asked of course! Are they wholesale only? What do you think of their quality? I was going to try them but haven't gotten around to it yet. Thanks.

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

They are not wholesale only or I would definitely not be buying from them! I have always been happy with their quality and prices :)

@clarequinn4826 3 года назад

Hi could I add poly 80 for bubbles and use these in the shower too as a bubble shower wax bar....ish thing?????

@HumblebeeAndMe 3 года назад

Adding Polysorbate 80 to this formulation will not have that outcome. Check out some of my shampoo bars instead :)

@lyndsayfrost186 3 года назад

I live in a very humid climate where the temp can get to 90 degrees or more on a summer day. What butters would you recommend to use that wouldn't melt in its container??

@TheLoveOfNikki 2 года назад

Always go with harder butters in the summer such as cocoa butter or kokum butter. Even if use mix with soft butters, make the recipe where the amount of hard butters outweigh the soft. Maybe like a 60hard/40soft butter ratio

@katlinrain4805 4 года назад

I’m making milk and honey bath melts and I was wondering if I still use the almond oil with the Emulsifying wax

@reflux043 2 года назад

Can you use OliveM 1000?

@catzkeet4860 6 лет назад

I know this is an old post but I’m curious. How do these stand up to storage in a hot climate? In summer here, it gets VERY warm, so I’m just wondering if they would melt, I suspect so.

@HumblebeeAndMe 6 лет назад

I'm afraid I haven't had a chance to check :( I suspect you may be right-keeping them in the fridge before use may be the way to go... but also... do you really want a very hot bath when it's 40°C out? 😝

@catzkeet4860 6 лет назад

Humblebee & Me lol you’re right there Marie, however, there is method to my madness. It might not be the the best time of year to “use” them, but it’s a great time of year to “make” em lol *wanders off to see if there is any space left in the fridge*

@shakaraspriggs7628 4 года назад

Kind of a silly question but, Is emulsifying wax safe to use? I’ve seen so many contradicting answers on the internet things you can substitute it with but I seen in another video you did explaining that they won’t work.

@babygirlhehe9748 2 года назад

people wouldn't be able to legally use it if it wasn't safe

@darleneelizabethjoy1577 5 лет назад

Can I use Ritamulse SCG emulsifying wax?Thanks!

@HumblebeeAndMe 5 лет назад

In theory it should work, but it may alter the melting point, which could make them too soft or too hard. Start with a small batch :)

@Cheerstotrying 7 лет назад

is polysorbate 80 acceptable as an emulsifier

@kathryncastanares525 7 лет назад

msway0603 Not for this recipe. The BTMS-50 is used to not only to emulsify the oils and disperse them in the bath water, but also it replaces the beeswax which solidifies the little bath melts. Poly20&80 are liquid and would not create a solid bath melt. You can make a lovely bath oil with them though! Im sure you already know Marie "gots the goodz" with recipes.lol

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

Kat is right :)

@bjflinn1 5 лет назад

Personally I think you could. The bath melts I've made in the past have never included a wax because the cocoa butter keeps everything solid enough and let's it easily melt. You'd have to play with the ratio to make sure it would still solidify and be enough to work in the bath. Though I prefer bath truffles that uses citric acid and baking soda to help everything disperse quickly in the water.

@Natty1877 4 года назад

How do I preserve them for a long time if I don’t want to stored them in the fridge? Or if I give it as a gift pack

@babygirlhehe9748 2 года назад

if there's no water in them you don't need a preservative

@leighhamilton9400 7 лет назад

I loved the idea of creamy bath melts because I hate taking a nice relaxing bath - - and then have to clean the tub. So I made some today using shea butter (10g's) and mango butter (20g's) w/BTMS 50 (10g's). The problem is mine wouldn't melt in the hot water. I made them about 1/2 a teaspoon sized, so they weren't too big, and I used some pretty hot bath water. They just got really gummy and I'm afraid will clog drains. How do I solve that problem?

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

Hey Leigh! Have you tried smooshing them up with your fingers a bit before dropping them in the water? You could also try pre-melting them in extra hot water before adding them to your bath if that's not working :)

@corgisrule21 7 лет назад

How do you store them? Do you have to keep them in the fridge?

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

It's cool enough in Calgary that I don't need to keep them chilled, but if you live in Australia that would be a good idea!

@jessicafranklin6386 5 лет назад

Hi. Late to this video but have a question. I'm not sure i understand exactly the purpose of these. They don't actively do anything the way bath bombs do (fizzing), so.........? Are they mostly just to make your skin soft?

@HumblebeeAndMe 5 лет назад

Think of them like bath oil :)

@berrymerrymakeup 2 года назад

Could you use Olivem 1000 instead of emulsifying wax? 😊

@HumblebeeAndMe 2 года назад

Yes :) You should check out the deep dive video I did all about Olivem 1000 to learn more-happy making!

@Snoodlezsaid 5 лет назад

What's the difference between emulsifying wax and silky emulsifying wax? I've yet to work with either.

@HumblebeeAndMe 5 лет назад

You'd have to compare the INCIs to get a general idea (I can't really say without specific INCIs, either), but other things to look at would be usage rates and melting points :)

@carolynvanpelt862 6 лет назад

How many of those little hearts do you recommend putting in a bath?

@HumblebeeAndMe 6 лет назад

2-3?

@shermdog6969 4 года назад

If I'm going to use an emulsifying wax that will actually touch my skin I use Lecithin instead. No emulsifying wax I know of is not made in a way I want on my skin.

@LuisLopez-br3cb 3 года назад

how do you calculate how much eWax goes into it if you wanna make a big batch

@computergirl44 5 лет назад

I am purchasing everything to make these bath melts, but the Aspen Shea Butter is no longer available. What can I use as a substitute? Also, the heart silicone ice molds are sold out. You must have inspired a lot of people! ;-)

@HumblebeeAndMe 5 лет назад

You'll just want pure shea butter-it doesn't have to be that exact one. This one looks good: amzn.to/2LXF6iC :) For the molds, just be sure to choose something small!

@sugarkanesugaringspallcsug9879 3 года назад

Could you these like body butter bars and rub on the skin without them melting in water?

@HumblebeeAndMe 3 года назад

Maybe, but why not just start with a body butter bar formulation? :) I've shared many over the years!

@_edg222-9.6cbmo 6 лет назад

Can I substitute FO for the EO? Would the ratios need to change?

@kkgemini86 7 лет назад

Have you ever thought about making your own molds so you don't have to buy them elsewhere? I'm thinking about doing that so I can customize gifts more than regular but it seems like a lot of work.

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

I have, but I also feel like the DIY-ing needs to stop somewhere or pretty soon I'll be planting cotton in my back yard :P I'd rather focus on skincare than mould making, I guess.

@theresapittman205 6 лет назад

Smart! Can I swap out the Shea butter with coconut oil?

@HumblebeeAndMe 6 лет назад

Shea butter has a melting point of 37°C, while coconut oil has a melting point of 24°C. The melting point of these is quite carefully balanced, and this swap will lower it and make for a softer final product. You can try, but they may not set up well.

@theresapittman205 6 лет назад

Do you have an amazon link to a different refined shea butter? The one you have listed is out of stock, but I want you to get the commission.

@HumblebeeAndMe 6 лет назад

Here you go: amzn.to/2zS1ebq. Thank you! I really appreciate it :)

@theresapittman205 6 лет назад

I like your website and channel. I appreciate your extensive knowledge and willingness share it and to reply. I've enjoyed watching you evolve as well. You have valuable content, it's not a crime for you to make a living! And if someone's going to make a living off of my spending, it should be you. That's how you benefit from my viewership and I want you to succeed and keep making videos. It's a symbiotic exchange, almost like an economy. (subtle sarcasm). Thanks so much for all you do, keep up the great work.

@idkmybffbatman 7 лет назад

I have silky e-wax. Could that work or does it need to be NF?

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

As long as it is a complete e-wax it'll work :)

@idkmybffbatman 7 лет назад

I'm pretty sure it is. I've seen some other soapers use/recommend it for lotions. I saw your blog on e-waxes and I think I might prefer the texture that emulsimulse gives but I don't think it's available in the US. :(

can e-wax be used or is this the same thing as e-wax?

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

I'm not sure I understand what you are asking. "E-wax" is the same thing as "e-wax"...?

@wallislahtinen-hicks6935 7 лет назад

There are various kinds of emulsifying waxes. Are you using what is generally referred to as "e-wax"?

@HumblebeeAndMe 7 лет назад

Yes, I'm aware of that. The video lists the different specific trade/product names of several different kinds of emulsifying wax you can use, including the one I am using (Emulsifying Wax NF). Any good supplier should not be selling anything just called "e-wax" as that gives you basically no information about it and whether or not it would work (I've seen some "emulsifying waxes" that are just single fatty acids that would not work at all in any recipe that required a complete emulsifying wax!). It would be sort of like selling a "vegetable"... not helpful if you need a pepper but end up getting celery!
