I know this is Nifty and not tasty but I was fully expecting them to take a bite out of that first lotion bar
there should have been an "oh yes" at the end
Well, all the ingredients except the essential oil are edible so you should make one with flavor in it
aurely aurely
But be careful, not every shea butter is edible.
It's best to get shea buttet from Vitamin World, right by the cooking oil section and they should have edible shea butter. I forgot the brand name though, but I have seen it there before.
Is it weird that I really wanted them to put a slice of the lemon in the bar??
Haiying Zeng nope i wanted the same thing
it would go bad....
These look even more scrumptious than tide pods. I'll have to give these a try 😍
I’m definitely going to try this one
Kacey Klos
...I thought it was white chocolate with strawberry inside...
Ali Diaz that would be really good tho.
I thought this is Tasty and we’re making white chocolate hearts
Great products you are truly amazing i made mine with beeswax and coconut oil they worked well too
i want to make this for my mama because she loves putting on lotion and can’t literally go on life without it.
The rose ones are so beautiful.... 😍❤️
Awesome homemade present!
An awesome home made lotion!!! Very extraordinary video 👍👍👍 oh my God!!! Very beautiful bars 👌👌👌 Thank-you 💋💋💋
i lIked the twine lotion bar it helped me curE my anxiety END depression
This is fascinating! ❤
Do not add the petals they will just rot.
I would think silk rose petals would be far better, personally.
Christine Cameron or make red colored soap and use a knife to cut shavings and put it into the soap to gice it a rose petal effect.
Oooooo even better!!!
Use fake flowers
Use dried rose petala
When you don’t have any of the ingredients 😢
Yeah...Ikr
Absolutely Fabulous ! So many goodies Thank you ❤
But won't it melt once taken out of fridge. It is very hot here.
Thus my question too
These will melt. I put beeswax in my lotion bars because without the beeswax or something that binds without melting, these are just "bath melts".
Lovely... But how to store them and what about the shelf life..??
Rose is my fav
nice video great job keep it up
i don't have any product 😭😭only have water for boiling
Zoya Malik 🤣🤣🤣
Same sis
Lmfao 😂😂
I love these 💕
What brand of essential oils is best to use for these?
Gift idea for my best friends 🤗
Thank you for sharing 🥰🙏🏻
How long do they store for? Do they ever go bad?
Sunnie DIY if you keep em in an airtight container they'll prob last a month or two. you can tell when they're off cu, they'll stop smelling nice and smell rancid or off
I've had homemade lotion bars with essential oil (but no plant matter) sit for a year and still be great, I just store them in a tightly lidded glass jar in the freezer until needed. The glass jar helps keep the nice scent in your bars and not in your food, cuz really, "lavendar scented rice" is just gross.
Should last a while.. just dont add live plants to it. It will rot.
They're good until they smell rancid/stale or you notice the texture of the bar getting really weird - it's mostly cocoa butter so if you've ever seen chocolate get that white spore on the outside and get really dry and crumbly - that will eventually happen to these.
Try add vitamin e oil
Ok the lemon one look delicious to eat
I wonder if I would get a bad reaction from this or not.
Who has shea and cocoa butter hanging around???
I have cocoa butter for some reason
I do bc it smells noice. That's the only reason I bought it...
Fifi R blackbysea website
I do lol 😂
I do 😄
Is the safflower oil important? I can't find it near me? Or does it have a substitute?
How many days it can be stored ??? Plz reply
will the roses turn brown anytime soon. moldy and rotten like if you try putting them in soap?
I wanna eat it
Please don't make these. Adding fresh ingredients to lotion bars without a preservative will cause them to mold. Dried is ok, but those Rose petals will mold soon. Better yet, purchase from local artisans who know what they're doing. Support small business.
Was looking for a comment like this 😁
That's a lousy comment. Ppl need to be resourceful and not depend on others to do it for them. First off allergies. No one gives a hoot about ppl with allergies. You're gonna make the items as u see fit and not for ppl who want to make their own stuff for personal reasons.
This will b my next diy!
Just wondering... What would happen if I used normal lotion...?
What about hot places where these oils stay in liquid form?
You can do equal parts beeswax, butter (Shea or cocoa), and coconut oil. Beeswax keeps it solid. You can get all of that on Amazon or wholesale supply plus. 😊
Wow love them but i hate cream/lotion. I don't know why.Bts i have exema.(dry skin) And when I put cream on it,it burns so thats why i hate cream
If you use a soothing gel like aloe vera it doesn't sting as much (I have exema too ☺️)
Try plain olive oil, or coconut oil, warmed gently to body temperature.
Why Safflower oil? Can coconut oil be used as well?
this is so cool🖒🖒
Where yall getting shea butter from tf
Limonka xxd amazon
Lateefa Johnson thanks dad ;)
Woow awesome
Will it be ok without bees wax?
For the first one the lazy way
1. Put lotion in a mold and squirt it in th mold with parchment paper under it
2. Decorate it however you want (like add petals inside it)
3. Put it in the freezer until frozen
thinking of doing the same thing with bar soaps xD
no one:
youtube: let’s put this in everyone’s recommended
Where do they get the flower buds from?
How many days i can store it?
Ima make one of these, give one to my brother and say it's chocolate
Me: time for washing my hands
Me: (washes)
Me: MOM WHAT IS THIS?!?!
Mom: honey its a lotion bar
Me: why?
what if u dont have shea butter can u use something else to replace it?
ash mcdoyle mango butter
I cnt afford Shea butter coco butter
I think the lemon bar will dry the skin tho since its acidic?? Idkk
It won't, but it can cause the skin to be more sensitive to the sun. ☀️
has anyone tried this? cuz it looks kinda greasy and it seems like it'll tug at your skin. its cute though
Norah Xu No, it's not greasy. Your skin absorbs everything since there's no oil in it (shea and cocoa butter look greasy/oily but they aren't).
I use homemade lotion bars like this almost every day. The way to use it is, rub the cake of it between your hands a bit just the same as you do a bar of soap, until it melts some onto your hands, then smooth that over your skin and rub in. If the mix is too "hard" and doesn't soften and melt easily to your touch, just melt the bar again and add a bit more oil. My usual ratio when I make is 4 oil to 1 wax, by weight.
If you want it less greasy, use more cocoa and less shea. If you want it to melt faster and not pull at your skin, either warm it up in your hands first or use more shea and less cocoa.
Anyone know if these are safe to carry around? I live in a pretty warm climate, I don't want to carry a melted lotion bar around
could i just freeze regular lotion to do this?
Isabelle Marie No it wouldn’t solidify.
darn. Thanks anyway!
Is it bad that I want to eat them?
I know this is not tasty but I really wan to bite these soap
Just few ingredient n lush n body shop sells them with 100s of $
I Don't have shea Butter, cacao Butter and safflower oil
I feel like eating them
Forbidden fruit
*S N A C C*
They look like chocolate I just wanna eat them!!!
I would just freeze lotion
Rolando Villanueva that wouldn’t form lotion bars.
....or use a squirt of lotion...
Make video DIY MAKEUP
Mari company may kam karogi very beautiful soap
Why not just put on lotion though?
Basically vaseline,but very pretty. They'd make nice gifts.
Only the lemon one is good
Good Lord, do they not realize how much rose essential oil costs? It's like, $10 a drop.
Also... There's no such thing as Vanilla essential oil. That's just chemicals and imitations they're marketing as real oils.
Come to South Africa you will get them
In the summer this is gonna be a puddle!
If you keep it outside. Most things would be though
@@d.o.4415 I have a jar of coconut oil in my bedroom. I keep it out of the sun. It still completely melts in the summer.
@@2fortsmostwanted maybe i keep my house colder
It looks kind of like cheesecake 🍰🧀
Hiii
Why does it look like someone took a bite out of the lip balm?
I thought it was a lollipop for a sec

Not this easy to make it actually works. Just tried with another recipe and hell,,, forgot to put the airrow root powder. Thank you very much😑
Why not use real lotion?
AWESOME CHEC zero waste maybe?
Abi Spear perhaps
Hello this is a DIY video, it’s not very sensible telling people who actually want to make their own products to go buy them at the store.
“Real” lotion is full of chemical ingredients
We r living in 2018....buzzfeed makes us live in 4018
It’s literally just butter
what no fragrance or E/O ( wow this wasnt to good
Skin feeling dry? Use normal lotion :)
jonathan Robbins Yes because that makes a lot of sense coming under a DIY video to tell people to use lotion.
Dont add essential oils directly to a mold like that!!!!! Mix it BEFORE pouring!! Y'all will just end up ruining your molds that way. Also those petals are going to rot. Do your research please got dam
:/
Y'all just can't have a video under a minute can you?
Lmao is this lush on a budget?
There is no a such thing as vanilla essential oil.
Kynarreth yes it is
We have it in South Africa
I love nifty but even thought the diys are easy, I don't have time to do it
This actually takes about 5 minutes to melt, pour, and decorate, and they will he set hard in about 20-30 minutes. Which is to say, FAR less time than getting in the car driving to the mall walking all the way to the Lush store finding your items waiting in line paying at checkout and driving home. Also you won't be paying ripoff prices for products which are LITERALLY made on site by teenaged minimum wage store flunkys, which go rotten in 1 week.
Don't have those ingredients..
Buying all that basic oils and essential oils will take so much longer
ur pfp is dean, what an intellectual !!
What if I’m making a batch for 100 people what’s the ingredient amount ?? ,,, HELPPPPP
1:21 I Legit thought they were making rope lotion bars.
Will it burn if you have eczema
This bar is way too soft. I might melt it back down and add more cocoa butter. Not a fan of this bar. 😐 i feel like this was a recipe on Pinterest. 🤔
Yummy yummy in my tummy LOTION BAAAARZ
Aw nearly first ahah 🤣🤣
First one(the rose petal one)....It's a copy of blossom
shat can I use something instead of cocoa butter and shea butter ??
I don't they are available in my country
You can use coconut oil and beeswax.
I guess my only real question is, will these start to melt in high temperatures? Awhile back I started using coconut oil as my all over body lotion and I had put some in a container to take on the go, but of course, coconut oil melts and resolidifys pretty quickly depending on the weather so it's not a great on the go option. Works wonders after a shower at home though
DoodleBop92 yeah they will. I even use car heat instead of boiling water to melt cocoa butter when I make cocoa butter bars
Shea melting point is at 38°c/100°f and cocoa is at 34°c/93°f
So if the temperature at the day reach 100°f they definitely will melt
They will, add beeswax and they’ll stay hard no matter how hot it is.
Does anybody know how to make these bars not melt as fast? I made them (with rose geranium oil!) and they smell and feel lovely, but melt so fast in my hands as I’m applying it. I currently leave them in the fridge because I don’t want them to melt so fast and make a mess! But I live in England so it’s not like I live in a hot country anyway. If I added another more solid butter, like walnut, do you think that might help them stay set a bit longer?
Why do these melt very fast
Renu Mehta because it’s oil
Low melting point. It's melted basically to combine. Think about it, the bar is melting when used only by the heat of your hand and body.
I'm the type of person where my skin is so sensitive that I can only use one specific brand & type of lotion. As cute as these are, I feel like my skin would still be hella dry. xD
Basic biology lesson here: skin is kept supple only by the presence of natural oil. That's it. Despite your utterly irrational "personal feeling" that anything except your one single favorite lotion will "leave your skin hella dry", there is actually nothing resembling creams moisturizers emulsifiers stabilizers or preservatives in naturally healthy skin. It's literally just plain oil, and plain oil is the only thing that actually works. All those other "creamy moisturizing" ingredients serve only to make the mixture stick on the skin, evaporate slowly, and leave you feeling like you need more. Please, at least try some plain olive oil or coconut oil, they even repair and rebuild skin on patients undergoing chemotherapy.
These definitely would not leave your skin dry, shea butter and cocoa butter are some of the most moisturizing ingredients you can buy.
