Hi, you can't - that is to do with contraction as the oils set and is a natural phenomenon. What you need to do then is allow the balm to set, and top up the 'holes' with more liquid product as it sets. Depending on the size of your balm pot, you may need to do this a couple of times as the newly poured product will also suffer contraction as it sets. This is very normal, just be prepared for it to happen! Happy formulating.

Absolutely, they pair well! Find out more with our can I use a different oil, butter or wax workshop: personalcarescience.com.au/Workshops/Cosmeticoilsbuttersandwaxesworkshop-5209/
Great video! Something I don't understand...if you're using beeswax up to 20% to make a hard balm, why does it matter if you have more than 10% butter in the formula? How could (a 20% beeswax) balm consisting of 50% liquid oil be more solid than with 50% butter? Thanks!
If you use more than 10% butters, it will start to have an impact on your consistency/hardness regardless of the wax - meaning the product could be too hard in cold climates, or too soft in warm climates, depending on when and where it was first made.
Thank you for your answer. What a challenge as I had planned most of my balms to be based around Shea butter. Back to the drawing board...Really useful video. Thank you
You'd need to use a lot of light skin feel esters e.g. Cetiol CC or similar. Vegetable oils will always leave you with a residual greasy feeling. Please also watch our w/o balm ointment, that will give you a better spreadability for the face: ua-cam.com/video/T-5mrfzMBJo/v-deo.html Its still very balm like and you'd still need very light skin feel esters otherwise it will feel greasy.
The most important factor with a balm is oxidation - so if you have used sufficient antioxidant for the plant oils used, you can easily get 2+ years out of your balm. This formula would easily make that, if you make changes or add extra essential oils or plant oils, please check for oxidation.

Yes, but be careful where the balm is meant to be applied and how much you add. If they are menthol crystals, you will also need to dissolve them in a carrier oil first.

These videos are amazing! I have a question, you said that combined waxes must be up to 22% and soft butters ( cocoa, coconut, seashell, etc) must be 10% top. So, what is it the rest of the 68% of the formula?

Yes you can use sunflower wax and sunflower oil - just check stability overtime as sunflower oil is more prone to oxidation than many other plant oils.
Really helpful video the ratio % are great! I was watching some other videos about how large manufactures make lip balm and I noticed several of them let the mixture solidify them re-melt multiple times to alter texture. Do you know what this process is called or whats happening there?
Glad it was helpful but I don’t know why they would remelt unless they can’t fill on the day because of time - it is best to make and fill straight away. You may need to ask them why they do it that way.
Please mention all the name of substance during veido as it will help a lot bcz l am not being able to understand your accent properly .l hope you will positive response.

Maybe I'm just not smart, or haven't looked at enough questions and responses (and I've looked at so many 🥴), but how are people adding cool down ingredients at 40C and still pouring while molten? Just about every tutorial (by actual formulators- not just DIY-ers) have ingredients like tocopherol, extracts, EO.. Am I the only one who hasn't figured this out? By the time you can add these ingredients, it's no longer pourable... Can anyone give me some insight? I figured I would ask here since I use the create cosmetics app (which I love btw...) I was trying to create a Laneige dupe, and there are just so many extracts... and this is in a jar! I have no idea how people are getting their (smooth) balms in tubes! Yall reheating heat sensitive ingredients? TIA;)
