How to Make DIY Eucalyptus Mint Foot Butter 

Absolutely LOVE you videos! Hands down the most informative and well put together on RU-vid! Thank you!

Omg I'm definitely going to make this. What great information. Your video was great to watch. I'll have amazing feet for our Aussie summer in no time. Thank you 💖

I made this butter. The texture is a fantasy. Thank you very much for this wonderful recipe

Thank you so much for the great tip on the cool-down of the butters very well done.

Informative video- I will have to try this technique. Also, the Humblebee & me towel is adorable! 🤗Thanks Marie!

This looks wonderful! Do you recommend putting this on your feet at night before going to bed to let it sink in?

I was just looking over your other foot creams on your blog yesterday and you make a foot butter today! Must be fate. I love your little hand towel too!

Oooo....let's talk about that towel. Where you do find that amazing-ness beauty? Love it! Hope your move is going well. Can't wait to make this recipe for gifting to my dad with his dragon feet thing that he's had going on since the 80's. lol. I think he's tried everything commercially available, but think the butters might really help.

That's a great recipe. The texture is divine. Thank you very much

Your videos are great! A+ for presentation! And you are beautiful! Thank you for all the knowledge!

I love this recipe-I did not have Mango butter and replaced it with Avocado butter. It really is great!

This is perfect! I have been using an emery board on my heels and some perfume lotion which isn't helping my dry skin on my feet but luckily you come up with an easy diy and I have the ingredients (why didn't I think of this myself?) TO make it. I will do this asap 🖖

I will definitely try this out. Your videos are simply amazing and I *love* them. Thanks.

Hi Marie, I love your website and videos, and have used many of your recipes. I really appreciate the quality of your recipes and photographs, and the time you take to answer everyone's questions. I would love to support you by buying your book, but alas, I don't wear makeup. I've seen people say this before, so I'd just like to reiterate that if you wrote a book about soaps, cleansers, lotions, and the like, I would buy it in a heartbeat!

Another great video!! So much information and I can't wait to make it. I have a question, why stirring all ingredients to reach a light trace, and if using a larger quantity recipe, could you use an immersion blender to help speed up the trace process?

Hello Marie. Love each one of your videos and quirky personality. I agree with Charles Ward about a different book on lotions, and oils. I think it would be amazing. I already bought your book on makeup even though I don't wear makeup. I love the lip balms and I was going to make the lipsticks until you mentioned that your book lipstick mix did not work well with the TKB mold. Now I am not sure what to do. I bought the mold and I am not sure how to do the lipsticks.

Marie, I think there is a mistype with peppermint essential oil mass. In the formulation description it says 0.38g, I think it should be 1.38g, as that would come to 2.75%. Sorry😬

hi. I was excited to try this recipe. I used exactly what’s written (except for EO) but my mixture didn’t solidify after 24 hours haha it is still liquid. Do you know where i went wrong?

Love it as usual!!! I I would really love to get one of those towel ♡♡♡♡

Hi Marie, I did this recipe but it didn't set up well. The result was kind of an extremely soft product (almost liquid). I had to melt it again and add 8g of beeswax to make it firmer. Any guess on why this happened? On the other hand, I also made your Soothing Cedarwood Ointment, which has a similar technique (the ice bath) and it turned out well, actually much harder than I expected. But the difference is that the SC Ointment has cetyl alcohol and beewax in it but this foot butter doesn't, so I don't know how it would set up so well without any thickener in order to be so firm as yours. I did mixed it constantly, but I'm not sure if I reached "trace". Do you think the quality of the shea butter may have played a role in the final product? I used refined, but I'm not sure if it is a really good quality butter. This is all I can think of trying to give a explanation why it didn't set up. Thanx!!!

Hey Mary! Thanks for your awesome videos a enjoy them all the time!! Would it be to much to ask for the purpose of the corn starch in this formula? What does the corn starch provide, is it viscosity?? Thank you for your time! And I wish you success on your course!! ❤

I shud definitely make this... But I always have this doubt... Are the essential oils u use for fragrance or for some chem&physics property. .... And btw ur towel is cute

Nice for feet and legs refresches my "steamy "😁legs in the summer after work I have to make this one 🖒

I tried your recipe and turns out awesome..the only thing it melts when i left in hot place..im thinking of adding any emulsifier wax..do you have any recommendations?? If yes ..how many percent would it be?? Thank you

Hey! Would you recommend the formula botanica course if someone is serious about cosmetic making?

Hi there, your video is really amazing! Just one doubt, I live in a very hot place ( 35 degree Celsius), should I go with the same recipe or do any modification? Do suggest.

Hey Marie, i also attend Formula Botanica, great work on the foot balm

i just randomly wounded up here but great job at presentation, i watched all the way through! probably smells hummy😭

I made this today for the very first time using mango, shea and grapeseed oil.I followed the instructions exactly as written. First of all, I never saw this trace thing and by the time I tried to pour it in my tin, it was too thick and would not pour! I remelted it, put it back in the ice bath, never saw the trace thing again but it was pourable and appeared to set up nicely! That was six hours ago and it still has not hardened! I don't know what to do! Should I put it in the fridge? Please reply!

Hi…what is the shelf life period ? Is it ok if we are not adding any preservatives for mixing butter and cornstarch? Thank you

I read your blog and it's very informative, thank you for it. I'd like to tweak it a bit just to kind of make it my own. I did try it with all shea butter and it is very greasy, still lovely though. I'm wondering if coconut oil (solid at room temp) would be an ok substitution for the mango butter. Also, what if we wanted to leave the essential oils out completely. Would we just increase the butter portion since the essential oils are part of the overall percentage in recipe?

I made this ond today and oh my god! I love it😍. But my end product is translucent not opaque. I follow the recipe exactly except for theliquid oil, i used grape seed. Would that be the reason?

I love your recipes. Could you add turmeric EO and/or turmeric powder to this recipe?

Hello there! I’m a new subscriber to your diy videos! Have you heard of using barium sulfate for chemical hair removal? I’ve seen some people mix it with plain glycerine soap for hair irritation free hair removal? I’d like to see if you can try it and make it work.

Can we use cooking sunflower oil instead of safflower oil? Is cornstarch absolutely necessary or we can do without it?

hi if i dont have mango butter what can i use instead of this

Hi ,I tried it.Instead of corn starch I used corn flour.It remained liquid even after one night.I didn't understand why?what is the heat phase and cool phase time?

Is there a substitute for safflower oil?

I understand the heating and then somewhat rapid cooling is tempering the shea butter so it is not grainy, but is the "trace" phase when it is thick enough that the starch stays suspended but it is still warm enough to pour into the container?

Heyyy so always watching videos is there something that can replace the safflower oil as I do not have that ingredient unfortunately

I have tried to make this twice today and it's not solidifying. I even painstakingly measured to make sure I'm not crazy and added less EO in case that was the issue. I'm using mango butter, refined shea butter, and apricot kernal oil. Is one of those the cause? I really want this to work hahaha I could try kokum butter, cocoa butter, or straight mango butter. I can use just about any other light carrier oil too. Just not sure what's causing it.

The butters are soft enough to combine without melting.

Hi can this be used by reflexologists or is it too oily as a medium?

Used coconut oil for this recipe.. cane out fine. But the product is not setting? Shall I freeze the product?

Could you formulate a balm with blue tansy inspired by May Lindstrom's Blue Cocoon?

What is this particular foot butter good for?

Can I use this as an alternative to Vick’s ?

so great

Can you trade out vit E for glycerin

Can this be whipped?

Hi, sorry to bother but could you suggest a recipe for a foot lotion/butter/balm to help ease and heal cracked heels/split skin on the balls of feet, i'm suffering from several splits right now and could really use something to aid healing and ease the soreness

I tried half this with the arrowroot substitution and it won't set. Do you need more arrowroot?

My product did not harden at all what did I do wrong eekk

thank so much for this video! I love this!
