Making Earl Grey Tea Emulsified Sugar Scrub 

Excellent video! A word you could try next time. I know its tempting to jump ahead. Even the warm wax will eat your sugar. If you want a more scrub consistency, wait for the temp to be below 80F. And I do 2 parts sugar to liquid ratio, which is what I think you ended up at anyway. Love that color and will have to try that sent! Tea is one of my favorite things!

I use optiphen. It’s paraben and formaldehyde free preservative.

Hi Kevin, I have watched several of your videos and I really appreciate you for explaining your processes and the ingredients so well.

Hi Kevin, You are by far the best with the soap making and art videos. You are very talented and you present the information in such a manner that I can listen, watch, and really grasp the art techniques and recipes easily! Thanks a million!!!!! 😀👍🏻

I've been binge watching diy beauty product videos for the past 2 days and you have the most detailed videos I've seen. Thank you so much for sharing and keep the videos coming they are a great help!

You have a new fan!! ! Wow love the way you explain it. Thanks!! Greetings from Costa Rica

I am a new soap maker and I truly appreciate your suggesting where to find ingredients. Love your videos and your recipes. Thank you.

Love your videos and when you pop into the camera's view. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and recipes it's great to be able to use them and adapt them. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.

Kevin, this video like many of your others was absolutely awesome. As I've commented before, what I appreciate most about your presentations is the amount of research based detail you include in order to flesh out the reasoning behind your use of specific ingredients. Again, great job. Keep up the good work because it's much appreciated.

Nice sugar scrub Kevin! Thank you so much for explaining why it's called an emulsified sugar scrub. I kept looking at all these recipes without water and couldn't see why both ewax and preservatives were being used. Excellent presentation!

Yet another fabulous video, ThanQ. Love how you tell us about your own research into scare mongering stories and how we can check it out for ourselves. We all need knowledge that is true before making/marketing cosmetic products. You put so much work into your videos I want to let you know how much it is appreciated.

Thank you for sharing this recipe, your properly well detailed video with thorough explanations. I'm definitely going to try this recipe on a smaller scale lol. Thank you thank you thank you 😊

I wish I could give you 2 thumbs up! I have watched many, many you tube videos and you are by far the best educator I have encountered and not just this video. the effort you make to educate people is very generous of you. God bless your very generous heart. thank you. would recommend your videos to anyone who ventures your way

Thank you! I can't wait to try this. I really appreciate your very thorough explanations as well.

Oh my, Kevin! This looks amazing; I'm going to have to try out your recipe for sure! What a great gift idea for the holidays.

Kevin I just love your videos. You really are awesome at explaining every detail. I have used Phenoip in goat milk lotion. It is hard to get some to understand the research behind it being an ok choice. I have some who just freak out which is fine. But I am like you must be preserved. Thanks for the details. Love this scrub..

Kevin, I tryed your recipe and I'm in love!!!! thanks for posting it!!! hugs!!!

Your friends are lucky to receive gifts like this!!

What can we substitute for dimethicone and cyclomethicone..are they necessary or can we skip them

Wow Kevin this recipe sounds amazing! I think I may give it a try. My scrubs sell decently well. I dont use any silicones I have a lot of picky customers but this just sounds awesome! You dont have any problems with your sugar melting adding it while the oils/butters are so warm? I was thinking about it because you said you needed to add more sugar. I put mine in the freezer until it cools and I whisk it, making it into a pudding like consistency and then I add my sugar last.

And once again...Another wonderful video. Great timing...I had purchased many items to make sugar scrubs...but have been crazy busy...but after seeing your video...I need to put those ingredients I purchased to use. And yes...wonderful gifts! Thanks for sharing such great info on all your products...I too LOVE Mad Oils! ~~ Karen

Awesome!! I have to show my daughter this video she would love this

Yummy! I'm addicted to sugar scrubs. Thanks for the video! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience ... This video contains helpful and valuable information .... Just I don't know silky Ewax ... I don't have that produces available...I have to make myself.... Can you guide me?? Thanks you ☺️🙏

Excellent explaination..

Great recipe

I was just thinking why don't any one use the 'cones in their scrubs, and then their you are using it

You do already have a preservative for the water part (if any water enters the product), and that is the sugar. With so much sugar, which is a preservative itself (if used in high enough amounts) will dissolve in the potential water and preserve the product. Since you use almost two kilos of sugar, it can preserve quite a lot of water. But if you dump lots and lots of water in there, and even some more, well, then the sugar can't preserve it anymore. What I would do instead of using a preservative, is to use a container that water can not enter. Like an airless pump or an upside-down squeeze bottle, for example. I don't know how well it would work for a sugar scrub, but to choose a container that does not let high amounts of water in the product, that will preserve it more than enough. I think it is best to not use a preservative if it can be avoided, since they are not completely harmless. And in this case, which is a water-free self-preserved product in the first place, it can be definately be avoided by changing container. To add preservative to a preserved product is unneccessary. What I find strange, after watching tons of RU-vid videos about making sugar scrubs, is that most choose a preservative because how it is used in the shower. But nobody thinks of changing how it is used in the shower by eliminating dripping wet hands in a jar, the original problem they mention as why they need a preservative. I just wonder, since you use a preservative already, and have emulsifying wax in there, can't you add water to the product to make the consistency more lotion like, or body butter-ish? Would that work? I have not made any sugar scrub yet, that's why I watch all the videos, I would like to do it. But there are too many ways and recipes, so I get almost confused. Your sugar scrub looks really, really nice. I especially like the color :-)

this looks fab! your friends are lucky lucky bananas :)

Woo hoo! Gonna try yours out for sure!

i love the little wooden spoon in your still shots. would you be willing to share your supplier, I am making sugar scrubs for Christmas and would like to include the spoon dispenser with the scrubs. Thank you

OH YUM>>>>>TY, CAN"T WAIT TO TRY!!....

Great video! Is the soft silky ewax vegan?

Hey Kevin! Always love your video's!! One quick question...with the addition of more sugar, shouldn there be an adjustment for more preservative? You already had all your liquids prepared before the addition of the extra sugar, didn't know if the recipe was modified for the addition. Thanks for your help and info...Hugs from Texas!! : )

Kevin the scrub turned out good. Did they firm up any more after you put them in the jars? Thanks for the video and Have a great Holiday. :-)

Very informative video. Excellent educational tutorial. I'm looking for body butter videos that you've done and didn't see any . Have you done any? Do you know of any ingredients that you can add to body butters that makes them more silky and less greasy?

Bruh love the scrub!

❤️

Hi Kevin....how warm do you let the oils get? Doesn't it dissolve some of the sugar? Looks fab as usual :) Thanks for sharing!

do you have to let it cool before putting g on the lid also will it thicken more with cooling. what is the shelf life. thanks

Can I use Germall plus or germaben II instead phenonip? I can't find phenonip here :(

I can't find any kind of emulsifying wax in my country :( ... Can I do it without it? Or just with Polysorbate 80? Thanks in advance

What brand is the colorant ? Curious about liquid color

Where do I get the Dimeth and Siclo meth from Kevin?

Kevin could we use salt instead of sugar?

Is there supposed to be stearic acid in this one?

wHERE DID YOU GET YOUR COLOR FROM?

bruh
