Made this shortly after you posted and LOVE it - especially as I'm trying to go as natural as possible with skincare. Not fussed on the list of unpronounceable ingredients in most shop bought products. Thank you!
Hi Laura, What I like about your recipes are that , you use very minimal ingredients .It feels good on skin and I feel good about not using any toxic chemicals . Please make a video for gel based moisturizer and gel based sunscreen without zinc oxide. Thank you !
"toxic chemicals" - you know that water is a chemical too, right? When you're dying, it'll be "toxic chemicals" i.e. medicines and medical treatments that you'll immediately want. Plant oils and plant substances are unpronounceable in their biological names, and also contain toxins and poisons.
This is the best DIY face moisturizer recipe.. Simply love it.. Two years back when I was a DIY beginner I made my face moisturizer using beeswax and completely messed it up.. Now with your videos turning to a DIY inspired person..I wanted to ask you which is the best essential oil for stretch marks?
Can I add in Vitamin E oil instead of the Fractinated Coconut oil? 🥥🤔 If so, same 1 TBLS? 🤔 Can I go out in the sun with the Vitamin E oil? 🤔 Do you have a recipe for a moisturizer with sunscreen? 🤔 Also, do you have a recipe for Sunscreen for myself & my grandkids? 🤔 Thank you! Love all your wonderful recipes & great tips!! 💕
I want to make this recipe but add my own little twist to it. I did some research and I just want to make sure i am doing this correctly. Does this recipe look good? DAY CREAM Moisturizer 1 TBSP shea butter 1TBSP rose water 1 TBSP bees wax 1 TSP grapeseed oil 1 TSP Almond oil 1 TSP Vitamin E oil 15 drops essential oil (frankinsemce ylang ylang bergamont)
Love your videos they have massively helped me getting started making my own DIY! Would you recommend using preservatives with some of your products if using for gifts etc or because would it not be needed as long as they weren't going to be stored near water? X
Can we store this in pumping bottle . Can u show another shea butter lotion type using pomogranete . I just loved ur recipie which I'm using now my clogged pores is reduced now . 😍😍
@@ouroilyhouse can u make face moisturizer cream with shea butter, and tan removal or whitening cream. I just love ur receipies of DIY😍😍.. all are pure and gentle.
Could someone turn this moisturizer into a cream foundation by mixing arrowroot and cacao/ turmeric powders? Or would this moisturizer not be good for all day foundation wear?
@@ouroilyhouse Thank you! I applied the moisturizer after my shower and i love it. I also added a few drops of vitamin E. Thank you for the awesome recipe.
Why do you not reccommend olive oil and also, what essential oil would you add for more mature skin? I'm 54 and I don't have wrinkles or skin problems (except maybe a few age spots).
@@ouroilyhouse Thank you...I look in the mirror and expect to see my 20 somthing year old face and not my 54 year old face that's starting to look like my mother! The struggle is real...winter is coming for us all, lol!
I do not find it to clog my pores or cause breakouts. In fact, I find it to do the opposite. My skin is very soft and clear. I use fractionated coconut oil as a makeup remover every night before bed, and it works great. It is gentle enough to apply close to the eyes to remove eyeliner and mascara.
For some people, it works well, but for many people, it does clog pores. I personally avoid coconut oil like the plague because it gives me horrible breakouts. I would definitely test patch somewhere on your face before putting it all over the place.
You are correct! I was always taught to avoid coconut oil on the face & scalp as it will clog pores and slow down hair growth & cause breakouts. Grapeseed/Rosehip/Safflower oil will not clog pores.
Hi! Love your recipes. I just made this one - used the Shea butter and jojoba oil linked...and 12 hours later, it’s still liquid. I can’t figure out what I did wrong.
@@ouroilyhouse I didn’t whip it - I thought it just turned back in to Shea butter consistency? I made the regular face moisturizer. I just let it set up in the air tight container.
Please answer. I finished making it and boiled it. Am I supposed to let it sit in the container? And for how long? Or do I put it in the freezer? And for how long? How do I get it to turn into a thick texture? Please I’m dying to know
I made some melt and pour soap bars and I have noticed that at the beginning there was just a little bit of foam coming when you were washing your hands. As I kept using it, after a point the amount of foam increased a lot and I was wondering what caused that. Is there any way to make your soap more lather?
I made this moisturizer and live in a warm climate. Mine has turned a brownish color??? It has been very warm and has caused this to melt, I added some cornstarch to help thicken it which helped, but now is has a brown layer toward the bottom. Is it still okay to use or should I toss it? Thank you for your help.
Very nice moisturizing cream i have ever seen. I would be very grateful of u if u tell these ingredients in grams as i dont know the exact amount of cup n tablespoon
Definitely don’t use coconut oil on acne prone or oily skin. It’s comedogenic, meaning it’ll clog your pores. Stick with avocado or jojoba. I like jojoba and sweet almond oil.
There is something called the comedogenic scale. (It measures the likelihood of something clogging your pores.) It's a zero on the scale so not likely to clog pores. But i would still only use a tiny bit at a time.
Our Oily House MA Pls if i want to make it for commercial purpose should I add it bees wax to avoid melt when kept in a place both sun and room temperature will be grateful if you reply back MA gud bless you
Our Oily House thank you so much! I made it last night and it was absolutely amazing! It was so nice to put on at night and when I woke up my dry skin was even better then it was yesterday!
Morn laura deb from England lol as for where to get soap could I make my own with melt and pour think would be cheaper also face moisturiser bit grainy but rubs in ok xx
You’re actually not supposed to use essential oils on your face. Scents are an irritant to the skin, and also in the long term they will destroy the top layer of skin. This is why they recommend using a carrier oil when they’re put into lotions for the skin (not for face) (:
This really is a matter of which oil you are talking about it, the brand, and if it is diluted properly. I (and personally know a lot of others) use essential oils on my face daily and have amazing results!
Our Oily House oh wow! Thank you for this information!! I’m obsessed with essential oils so I’d love to include them in a homemade moisturizer, I’ll check out the ones you have linked😊
I made this moisturizer but mine didn't seem to come out right. It has the consistency of jelly and seems very oily. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I live in a hot climate so maybe that is the problem.
Yes try putting it in the refrigerator to see if it will set up and then you can whip it with a hand mixer. Adding a little arrowroot powder can help if you think it is too oily.
If you cool it down quickly, it doesn't crystallize as much! You can do that by putting the bowl of melted oil into a bowl with ice water and stir, stir, stir until it's completely cool :)
I know this is a simple recipe but would you mind putting the recipe in the description for quick reference? Thanks for all you do Laura!
Just added it!
@@ouroilyhouse ❤
Made this shortly after you posted and LOVE it - especially as I'm trying to go as natural as possible with skincare. Not fussed on the list of unpronounceable ingredients in most shop bought products. Thank you!
I am so glad!!
how much does it make?
THE BEST moisturizer video I’ve seen! My recipe is almost exactly like this one. I think I’ll add frankincense essential oil to mine. Thank you!😊

Hi Laura, What I like about your recipes are that , you use very minimal ingredients .It feels good on skin and I feel good about not using any toxic chemicals . Please make a video for gel based moisturizer and gel based sunscreen without zinc oxide. Thank you !
Can I add beeswax to get a good lotion like consistency ?Does beeswax improve the texture of skin ?
You are so welcome!
"toxic chemicals" - you know that water is a chemical too, right? When you're dying, it'll be "toxic chemicals" i.e. medicines and medical treatments that you'll immediately want. Plant oils and plant substances are unpronounceable in their biological names, and also contain toxins and poisons.
I have made of your soap recipes and they all came out great. I never thought I would see my husband using cosmetics. continue the awesomeness
Yay I'm so glad!!
This is the best DIY face moisturizer recipe.. Simply love it.. Two years back when I was a DIY beginner I made my face moisturizer using beeswax and completely messed it up.. Now with your videos turning to a DIY inspired person..I wanted to ask you which is the best essential oil for stretch marks?
I am so glad you like it! Lavender, frankincense, and rose are all good for stretch marks!
Can I add in Vitamin E oil instead of the Fractinated Coconut oil? 🥥🤔 If so, same 1 TBLS? 🤔 Can I go out in the sun with the Vitamin E oil? 🤔 Do you have a recipe for a moisturizer with sunscreen? 🤔 Also, do you have a recipe for Sunscreen for myself & my grandkids? 🤔 Thank you!

I can not wait to try and make this! I love your videos! So helpful and informational.
I’ve been waiting for you to make this! Just went to the store to get new carrier oil. Keep up the great work 🙂
Thank you so much! It has been a highly requested video! I love all the suggestions, it makes my job easier! ;)
Will be making this recipe as soon as my shea butter arrives, can't wait...
I want to make this recipe but add my own little twist to it. I did some research and I just want to make sure i am doing this correctly. Does this recipe look good?
DAY CREAM Moisturizer

1TBSP rose water
1 TBSP bees wax
1 TSP grapeseed oil
1 TSP Almond oil
1 TSP Vitamin E oil
15 drops essential oil (frankinsemce ylang ylang bergamont)

Love your videos they have massively helped me getting started making my own DIY! Would you recommend using preservatives with some of your products if using for gifts etc or because would it not be needed as long as they weren't going to be stored near water? X
Thanks for the recipe can’t wait to make it 🌺
You're welcome!
BROO. was looking for this THANK UUU 🍀🥰🏖
Can we store this in pumping bottle . Can u show another shea butter lotion type using pomogranete . I just loved ur recipie which I'm using now my clogged pores is reduced now . 😍😍
It will be too thick for a pumping bottle.
@@ouroilyhouse can u make face moisturizer cream with shea butter, and tan removal or whitening cream. I just love ur receipies of DIY😍😍.. all are pure and gentle.
I'm learning so much! Thank you for all that you do!! 🤗👏🏻🇨🇦
I am so glad! Thank you for following along with me!
Could someone turn this moisturizer into a cream foundation by mixing arrowroot and cacao/ turmeric powders? Or would this moisturizer not be good for all day foundation wear?
For best results can we use virgin coconut oil? Or should we stay with fractionated coconut oil?
Don’t put coconut oil on your face or it will break u out
Remember!! Shea butter is natural latex. I am very allergic to latex!
Make Summer non Creasy cream
It’s an awesome recipe! But wouldn’t Lavender irritate your face overtime?
Lavender is a very gentle essential oil. I have never had any issues with it!
Thanks for the video but please turn the brightness down
Will do! Thank you!
I love all your amazing natural ideas however can I mix Yarrow oil and Pomegranate oil together myself because the doTerra costs $127.00?!
Yes you can!
Thanks for your ebook
I just finished making your face moisturizer. Do i have to cover it? How long will it take to harden up?
I would like to know the reply to this too.
I put a lid on it and it will harden within a couple hours.
@@ouroilyhouse Thank you! I applied the moisturizer after my shower and i love it. I also added a few drops of vitamin E. Thank you for the awesome recipe.
Why do you not reccommend olive oil and also, what essential oil would you add for more mature skin? I'm 54 and I don't have wrinkles or skin problems (except maybe a few age spots).
Rose and frankincense are great for that!
@@ouroilyhouse Thank you...I look in the mirror and expect to see my 20 somthing year old face and not my 54 year old face that's starting to look like my mother! The struggle is real...winter is coming for us all, lol!
Can I add a fruit extract powder for scent and not use a preservatives
Will the fractionated coconut oil clog pores like regular coconut oil?
I do not find it to clog my pores or cause breakouts. In fact, I find it to do the opposite. My skin is very soft and clear. I use fractionated coconut oil as a makeup remover every night before bed, and it works great. It is gentle enough to apply close to the eyes to remove eyeliner and mascara.
Thank you! I didn't find much while researching it. I'll definitely have to try it in my face products!
For some people, it works well, but for many people, it does clog pores. I personally avoid coconut oil like the plague because it gives me horrible breakouts. I would definitely test patch somewhere on your face before putting it all over the place.
You are correct! I was always taught to avoid coconut oil on the face & scalp as it will clog pores and slow down hair growth & cause breakouts. Grapeseed/Rosehip/Safflower oil will not clog pores.

Once it cools it will become solid. You can use a hand mixer to get it fluffy.
Shea butter feels very heavy and cake-y on my skin. Are there any other lighter options?
Mango butter is lighter!
For how long I store it and used
I made some melt and pour soap bars and I have noticed that at the beginning there was just a little bit of foam coming when you were washing your hands. As I kept using it, after a point the amount of foam increased a lot and I was wondering what caused that. Is there any way to make your soap more lather?

Hmm I am not sure why it would get a brownish color. Mine always stays white. Did you use cocoa butter? If it smells ok I would personally use it.
@@ouroilyhouse Yes I did use cocoa butter, it smells okay I was just concerned about the color. Thank you for getting back to me.
Thanks for the video ♥️. Can I use a lighter oil (something like grape seed) instead of coconut oil?
Yes you can switch out the carrier oil to whatever one you want! All work great!
Hi Laura, do you have receipies for rosacea?
Yes!www.ouroilyhouse.com/natural-home-remedies-for-eczema-with-salve-recipe/
Does this work for anybody ?
Does it need preservative?
it’s a dice chunky after it solidified
I need to know How many drops of essential oil do you add?
Thanks but try to write the ingredients on the screen for us .cus am not getting u well
You can always find all the written out instructions on my blog: www.ouroilyhouse.com/natural-face-moisturizer-recipe/
Is shea butter good for acne? I read that its comedogenic and can cause pimples. Please let me know.
I have cocoa butter, would that work as a substitute?
What's the shelf life of this recipe
One year
I just bought some pure triple whipped sea butter. It is a cream so I want to use it to make a lotion for my face. Where do get the Yarrow Pom EO?
Thank you. Can you whip this up to make it lighter
Yes! It whips nicely. You can do it assign as it is slightly hardened.
Do I put it in the fridge? Can I whip it to make it lighter?
Yes you can whip it. I store mine at room temp.
@@ouroilyhouse I mean should I put it in the fridge for it to solidify before I whip it?
Thanks for the recipe. May I have the link to buy the jar please? 😊
Everything is linked here: www.ouroilyhouse.com/natural-face-moisturizer-recipe/
@@ouroilyhouse thank you
Hey there how are you:) don’t you need to whip to get a better texture
Do you use refined or unrefined shea butter?
What were the blue specs in the cream at the end?
Did you whip it and put it back in the jar?
Dried lavender 🙌🏻
How come you don't use a preservative?
What about rosemary oil and lavender oil? Are those good for the skin?
Yes those are great options too!
Our Oily House thankss😘
Could you tint this moisturizer?
What can I use in place of the Yarrow Pom? Thanks
Geranium or lavender
Hoe long does this stay in good condition? Love your videos
Thank you! Up to one year
Very nice moisturizing cream i have ever seen. I would be very grateful of u if u tell these ingredients in grams as i dont know the exact amount of cup n tablespoon
Mam, pls do reply, how many grams are there in one cup. Thanks in advance.
Is coconut oil also a good carrying oil for acne or should I stick with avocado and jojoba?
Definitely don’t use coconut oil on acne prone or oily skin. It’s comedogenic, meaning it’ll clog your pores. Stick with avocado or jojoba. I like jojoba and sweet almond oil.
Hi, is their anything similar to yarrow Pom I could use? It’s too expensive for me right now. Love your channel!
Yes, lavender is great for skin!
@@ouroilyhouse thanks!
Can I add vitman E and Arrowroot to the ingredients
Yes!
hi, i heard shea butter would clog pores and breaks out easily when used in face, is it true?
It works great for my skin!
There is something called the comedogenic scale. (It measures the likelihood of something clogging your pores.) It's a zero on the scale so not likely to clog pores. But i would still only use a tiny bit at a time.
Cool but why don’t u recommend olive oil ?
It is a thicker oil and has a strong scent. It can be used, just not my personal favorite!
Our Oily House oh okay thanks ✨
I have dry skin please write the I should use thanks
Try this: ua-cam.com/video/dhTsjEPhw-A/v-deo.html&

Yes you can!
Our Oily House thank you so much! I made it last night and it was absolutely amazing! It was so nice to put on at night and when I woke up my dry skin was even better then it was yesterday!

It had some in it and I'm just refilling it.
@@ouroilyhouse thank you!
May I know why you don't wip the oils? Is it bad to wip it?
Not at all! You can definitely whip it!
Do you add arrowroot powder so it won’t be so greasy? If so, how much and at what point?
Yes!
Morn laura deb from England lol as for where to get soap could I make my own with melt and pour think would be cheaper also face moisturiser bit grainy but rubs in ok xx

It is dottera oil yes you can
Where can you buy the essential oil that you used
Here is the link: www.doterra.com/US/en/selectRegion/WC/1451451
So once it's hardened is still soft to be able to apply on the face? How about hemp oil? Can it be use as well?
Yes it stays soft enough to apply to face. And yes hemp oil can be used on the face.
Hello Laura can this moisturizer be used for oily skin?
Please do reply @our oily house
Can I use this in my all skin?
I do!
Shea butter makes my skin dry, does adding the other oils balance this out?
Would cocoa butter be any similar? Thanks!
Yes it will
@@ouroilyhouse thank you (:
does it melt over time? if so how long? and what could I do to prevent it from melting?
It will be fine at room temperature. It will melt if in very hot conditions.
Can I use this and then your sunscreen recipe ?
Yes you can!!
@@ouroilyhouse thank you 😊
Can i use grapeseed oil?
Yes
Hi! Is it possible to combine Shea butter and hemp seed oil?
Yes, those light carrier oils are basically interchangeable :)
Heyy can we add jojoba oil as a dilution for lavender??
then add it to the ahea buttter
Can I use MANGO BUTTER instead of Shea Butter?
Yes!
Can I use geranium EO in place of the Yarrow Pom?
Yes
I made this moisturizer but mine didn't seem to come out right. It has the consistency of jelly and seems very oily. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I live in a hot climate so maybe that is the problem.
Yes try putting it in the refrigerator to see if it will set up and then you can whip it with a hand mixer. Adding a little arrowroot powder can help if you think it is too oily.
@@ouroilyhouse Thank you I will try that.
Can I use regular cocunot oil
Fractionated coconut oil is much different than regular coconut oil, so it will change the consistency.
You are beautiful ❤️
Thank you!!
Is there anything i can do to get rid of the grainy feel
You can whip it using a hand mixer.
If you cool it down quickly, it doesn't crystallize as much! You can do that by putting the bowl of melted oil into a bowl with ice water and stir, stir, stir until it's completely cool :)
Does this work for combination skin?
Yes
Do you have to add essential oil? Or can you leave it out ?
You can leave it out if you prefer.
I have very dry
