Awe, thank you!!!

Hello @BaDDestPoTatO. Yes, my recipe is the same from last year. I was "thinking" of reformulating using jojoba oil. Hopefully the product is still wonderful. Thank you for your comment.

Hi @barbaralee1704. This butter was really thick and sort of stiffened up after it settled. I don't think it would be easy to pipe. I was able to scoop it easily though. I hope this helps. Thank you for your comment.

Hi there. Cetyl alcohol is not absolutely necessary but it definitely will help your body butter with it's thickness and silkiness. However, cetearyl alcohol may be your best alternative. Cetearyl alcohol will make a heavier, fluffier body butter so you may need to experiment with your recipe. Lastly, Cetyl alcohol is fairly inexpensive and available at a LOT of suppliers so I would highly recommend investing in some if possible. I hope this helps.

@@jenaerose1 thank you madam 😇🙏🏽

Hi @RealRockinRobyn! I am so excited for you. I absolutely love making these products. There are several reputable suppliers in the U.S. that you may be able to purchase from like; Brambleberry, Candle Science, Lone Star Candle Supply, Virginia Candle Supply, Amazon (but be cautious on who their supplier is), Makesy, Nuture Soap, and Lotion Crafter to name a few. I would definitely try to find a supplier that is close to your location so that you can cut down on shipping costs. I do get a lot of products from Amazon (free shipping with Prime) but I just recommend to do a little research before you purchase. I hope this helps! P.S. Some of my more recent videos have the links to the supplies that I purchased. Thank you for your comment.

@@jenaerose1 Thank you so much for your reply! I will definitely look into the companies and continue supporting your channel. 😊

@RealRockinRobyn I almost forgot two major suppliers I use, Bulk Apothecary and Natures Garden.

@@jenaerose1 Thanks for the additional info!

Thank you!

@naturallychilled3939 thank you!

Hi!!! Your shelf life is going to depend on the expiration date of your ingredients. Once an ingredient expires, the shelf life is up. I wouldn't recommend using or selling your product after the ingredients have expired. Thank you for the comment! 😊

Lol...isn't he though.

Yeah, I'm bringing him back for my bath bomb competition! This should be fun.

@briissoawesome NICE!!! I have some isopropyl myristate in stock so I think I may try that. I don't have cherry seed oil so I will have to see how I can get my hands on it.

@@jenaerose1 I bought it from new directions aromatics. Do you have any suggestions or thoughts on why my body butter turned to liquid when I went to pipe? I used kokum and isopropyl myristate and the sour cherry seed oil. I didn’t use much oil so I was very confused on why it ended up melting while I was piping. I also used arrow root in the recipe. How can I keep my butter from melting while piping? Or at all lol

@briissoawesome I am sorry I didn't scroll down to the end of your message. If your butter is melting fast I would decrease your light-weight oil. 30% is okay for cold months, but since it's getting warmer 5-10% may be better. I would also recommend increasing your hard butters as well such as shea butter (MP 89-100 F). Kokum Butter (MP 90 F). Mango Butter (MP 86 F). The temperature of your house may also make your butter vulnerable to melting. Another option may be to look into an emulsified recipe for the warmer months. Sorry so long, but I hope this helps. Thank you for your comment and question.

Congratulations on your new venture for making body butters. You can definitely make your body butter thicker by adding more hard oils. Slightly increase them until you find the consistency you like. I would probably begin by increasing Cocoa and/or Shea butter as they are solids at room temperature. You can also decrease your amount of oils as well. Best of luck!

I've tried Olivem 300 but there is a slight difference and I honestly like the PEG-6 results the best. Also, the usage rate for Olivem 300 is so broad, that I found it difficult to create a formulation that I like. I really like PEG-6 personally. I hope this helps. Thank you for your compliment and your question.

​@morningteainspiration1623 ohhh thank you for your reply. I'm new to this and I love making butters. Am I supposed to have insurance to sell?

Thank you!!! 😊

Hi @deannawilliams3455. Adding water isn't required. I add water because I sell my products at outdoor events in the summer and I also ship them in the summertime. So, an anhydrous body butter would definitely melt since it's heat-sensitive. If you are making it for personal use, you can definitely stick to only using oils and butters. You will still get excellent moisture. For this recipe, I specifically use Optiphen Plus from Brambleberry (www.brambleberry.com/shop-by-product/ingredients/additives-and-lye/preservatives/optiphen-plus/V001762.html) I hope this helps. Thank you for your question! :-)

Hi @financiallyfit101. Each batch size is going to be different. But for my batch size, I used 6% (36 g) of cetyl alcohol. Definitely check out the safe usage rates as well if you decide to create a batch. I hope this helps.

Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much!!! I really want to level up this year. I have so many ideas, so stay tuned.

Thank you! And yes he is, lol.

@bibikarim1506 thank you so much! I really appreciate your support and comments!

OMG!!! That is so sweet! Thank you so much. Brielle is such a princess!!!! Let me know if you need anything. ❤️ 💙 💜

Great question @rudeboy1190. One of the most important steps for emulsion is heating the oils and water. You want your oil and water solution to both be heated and around the same temperature for optimal results. :-)

Hi @correshasteadwell, I purchased my aloe extract straight from Bramble Berry. It's the reformulated one that contains triglycerides of caprylic/capric acid instead of canola oil.

@@jenaerose1 thanks so much

Thank you! I think that's absolutely wonderful that you make your own base. That's the best way to control your product. I design my labels through Canva. I ordered clear glossy labels from Online Labels and I print them myself through Online Labels Maestro. I have an HP Color Laser Jet printer. I LOVE IT!!!!

@@jenaerose1 thank you so much!! I guess I need to go back to Onlinelabels. I am switching to clear labels and it’s been tough. 😂 eventually I’d like to outsource but for now. Thank you!

@@astarieapothecary I LOVE Onli e Labels.

Wow! That is so interesting. I haven't tried collagen or colloidal silver. I'll definitely look into that. And yes, I agree with you about Vitamin E Oil. It has so many benefits. Let me know how your butter turns out. 😉

Hello, which collagen do you use, hydrolysed collagen?

@@jenaerose1 - I read this on Google: Colloidal Silver Foaming Soap is made with 150ppm colloidal silver. Colloidal Silver has antibacterial, antifungal, and antiseptic properties and provides relief from chronic skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, acne, burn, and dermatitis by reducing inflammation, dryness, redness, and itching.--- A friend of mine bought a bar of CS soap BUT, it had chemicals in it......I wanted to make the real thing for her to try out. Then, my uncle got colloidal silver for his surgical wound and I thought, "That must be a sign." I've heard about CS two times in a month when I'd never heard of it before. LOL. I have a bar of CS soap curing right now! Fingers crossed, I made a good recipe on the first try. LOL. Be blessed.

Thank you so much!!! I use Canva to design my labels. I purchase my labels from Online Labels and I use an HP Laser Jet printer.

Hi @itsebey. The ingredients along with the amounts begin at 9:20. I didn't realize how long this video was so I plan on providing a shorter but more detailed video. In fact, I'm trying this with all of my future videos. If you want this particular recipe including some of my other recipes, feel free to check out my Patreon which is in the description box as well. Thank you!

Hi! Lol, that's not a silly question. There's only a thin layer of rose petals on the top. I try not to add too much. The opposite side of the lotion bar doesn't have any rose petals at all. So that's the side that is recommended to use.

@@jenaerose1 Ah! I see. That makes sense. Thank you for teaching

Oh my! I'm sorry to hear that.

Thank you! 😊

You got this!

Check out the link to my Patreon that's in the description box. You can find the full recipe there.

Hi!! I prefer to wait 24 hours to let my my ingredients fully set. However, it's not actually necessary. 😉

Sure! This recipe doesn't contain water, so it can be made without a preservative.

Hi! This was a sample size that I made to experiment with a new recipe. I think it came out to four 4 oz jars.

Hi @gracioustsrahene703, the exact measurements for this recipe is going to depend on the size of the soap mold you are using. I used a 50/50 ratio for my oils which is 50% canola oil and 50% olive oil. If you use soapcalc.net, you can put the size of your mold and the oil ratio in there. It will tell you how much water and lye to use. I'm sorry if this is vague. However, this recipe and more is on my Patreon if you want to access it that way. It has this recipe and many more. You can find the link in the description box as well.

I just remembered, I do have a free recipe posted. Check out the "How to Make Fragrance Free Body Soap" video posted on July 10, 2023. You can use this recipe and substitute these oils and butters with the canola oil and coconut oil. This will make approximately 3 pounds of soap.

I know there are a lot of people that suffer from eczema including my oldest son. My recipe is quite complex because I think I got carried away with wanting to add every moisturizing butter and oil that I could think of. But the few ingredients that I consider the foundation of my mixture is unrefined shea butter, lanolin, black cumin seed oil and vitamin E. I've changed my recipe several times and trying to see which one he like the best.

@@jenaerose1ok, thank you so much!❤

Shea butter hemp seed oil or butter vitamin e oat butter or oat oil avocado oil

YES!!! And I have the same delivery driver for the most part. He probably thinks I'm a mad scientist with all the weird things that I order. LOL.
