![АЛАУДИНОВ у Скабеевой: эти их ВСУ нас НЕ ДОГОНЯТ 😁 [Пародия]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/an0anqU4WGQ/mqdefault.jpg)
My 2017-DIY-newbie fell in LOVE with my first tweak on your forest face lotion, my very first facial lotion ever! I did write my formulation down, but on a friggin piece of paper, thinking that I will rewrite it on a better looking journal soon after. I ended up losing the paper (argh!) and it frustrates me until now because I can never get that same sensation again however hard I try to recall the experience when tweaking that formula. So please just stick to one dedicated notebook/journal/any book, it doesn't have to be a fancy one. Just make sure all the writings stay in one place. *sigh
Hi Marie.. your videos are really informative.. thank you. Since I don’t use each raw material everyday, I draw a coloured dot on each ingredient to immediately identify the it’s solubility: blue for water soluble, orange for oil soluble and green for cool down phase ingredients etc. this definitely saves me a lot of time.
I love this tip! Thank you so much for sharing ❤️
I got beakers and a cheap hotplate added to my collection. I love this so much as I live with other people and now I can do so much more in my own space than in communal spaces. The hot plate is slow to heat since I cheaped out alot but it works none the less :)
I remember I had to throw away something in a sachet and a huge bottle of something I didn't remember what it was. The taking notes part...oh I've learned. This is a beautiful video, very helpful ❤
Ahhhh no! The heartbreak! 😭
Start slow and perfect each item before you start/buy for another and write it allllll down, you won’t remember later, be specific about items, amounts, results and time along with process and ingredients.
YES YES YES! ❤️
I wish I have known how easy lotion making is. I would have made it ten years ago when I began. I swear newbies it is easy! Not only take notes but by all means, take down notes for a product that you have ordered. I purchased an ingredient and never knew what I ordered it for.
❤️ Great advice!
So many useful tips .... You are super Marie ... I have gone through each and every fail that u have said ... Learnt through hard way but yes now I know better
I'm so glad you found it helpful! Happy making :D
I`LL REMEMBER is the biggest lie i tell myself every day LOL
YOU WILL NOT REMEMBER. take notes. label your stuff!!!
YES YES YES! 😂
Another amazing video! Thank you. I am learning so much from you and I also have been on your blog a lot. Thank you for all the information you give and for how easy it is to find things on your blog too!
Next is to learn to use a spreadsheet properly, as I do think if I want to start changing recipes and learning more I will need to learn to do this!
I started a blog also, although i try my best to be simple as possible for people like me..while explaining if things are safe and what not and also give out sources so they dont think im just saying whatever so that they can look at it themselves..i love the advice you give out! I havent began making anything yet but am almost close to starting, will be looking at your blog for more guidance to becoming successful ❤️🖤
I am a so glad I found your channel. I think you are Amaaazing! Thank you for being so transparent.
Thank you so much! Don't forget to check out my blog (humblebeeandme.com)-I've been blogging for over 8.5 years while I’ve only been on UA-cam for about 4, so there is TONS more content on the blog! Happy making :D
I have also learned to write the temperature and how that changed the process (might have accelerate the process) when making soap
Ooh yes, definitely! Great tip!
Smart and beautiful - any mother would be proud.
❤️❤️❤️
Love your videos!
Thank you so much! ❤️
Okay, I have a new product category for you, something I just discovered today when I let my barber shave my head for the first time (wow, was that scary, wondering if I was going to look in the mirror and see my father looking back at me! LOL). Afterward he put a product on my scalp, of all things, a "head polish" called "Sweet Comb Chicago Bee Bald Head Polish", which sadly isn't available in Spain (where I live). Inspired by you, I'm going to try and make my own. Their website describes the product thusly:
"Made in small batches, it contains a generous portion of beeswax which provides a shine and
protective barrier locking in moisture and soothing sensitive skin.
We’ve added sunflower oil, hemp oil, avocado oil, jojoba oil, cocoa butter, sweet almond oil, vitamin E, aloe vera,
and essential oils to assist in cleaning pores, nourishing, softening, and moisturizing the skin for a healthy, shiny dome!"
Have you ever heard of such a thing, Marie?! It looked AMAZING when applied (it certainly helped me through the initial shock of looking in the mirror), and I'm determined to find a DIY substitute (and one that is non-comdogenic). Any thoughts you can share would be MUCH appreciated. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and your wonderful recipes!
Thanks for the suggestion! It does sound mostly like a solid body balm or even lip balm. Check out my wax ratio experiments on the blog (search "beeswax liquid oil" @ www.humblebeeandme.com/search) for some good starting points. Happy making!
@@HumblebeeAndMe Thanks a bunch, Marie! Will do :-)
And btw, every time I've tried a DIY recipe since I started following you, I've had a pile of post-it notes and a pen nearby, to take notes :-) I KNOW I won't remember-LOL!!
Good call! Just don't lose the post-its... I've definitely made that mistake before ha.
@@HumblebeeAndMe LOL...I keep them all in the same plastic container as my EOs in the fridge...Brrrr!
This was very helpful. How do you get the percentages is you’re dealing with different units of measurement such as ounces, milliliters and pounds? I guess converting everything to the same unit of measurement would be a good starting point.
You really can't-that would be like trying to create a budget using 5 different currencies. Working in percentages by weight is formulation standard, and I can't recommend it enough :) I'm all about the metric system, but you can use imperial if you prefer. Happy making!
Very good 👍
Thanks for watching!
Do you hire out your time? I don't think I have the skill to formulate and would pay for a consult or recipe.
Sometimes! Feel free to send me an email (www.humblebeeandme.com/contact/) and we can see if I can help you out :)
LoL, I thought I was the only one who spilled and over/under weighed my ingredients.
Definitely not! We're all human 😄
First comment! wooh
This is random but hiw is your name pronounced? It looks like my name but without the "i" but pronounced jah-nay
@@zhannewilliams-chandler825 Oh my name is pronounced as like zeeyan. Sounds less interesting than your name. hahahaha
🎉❤️
Hi, to begin with I love your work and the positive Vibes!! I'm starting a company and really need to ask you some questions if you are not to busy do you have an email adres?
