You have the best recipes, and such simple easy to understand directions as well as ingredients. Love your stuff. Thank you for all you time and efforts put into these videos.
Can I add it to a base cream for skin lightening?
Can I used it on my face?
What does cetyl alcohol do for your recipe pls?
I just learned that it helps it maintain a smooth texture because the Kokum butter can turn back into a solid no matter how much oil or vegetables glycerin you put in, there is almost no way to stop this otherwise; I've tried
I made the body butter recipe and it's great but for some reason mine kind of like when it was done marshmallow and then I put it in my jar and then it just like really hardened up so I have to like dig my finger into it to get it .. when yours is fully set is it hard like that or is it still soft and creamy.. thank you and thanks for the great recipe
Thanks for watching and trying our recipe😊 Kokum Butter is naturally a hard butter. So once it's completely settled it will naturally harden a bit. Some say, it also depends on your supplier. But you can always add an extra amount of soft oils to compensate. Hope everything went well for you😊
Thank you for sharing
You're welcome 🙂
My daughter, who I will be making this for, has a tree nut allergy so I would not be able to use the almond oil. What would be a good substitute? Thank you so much for this!
Typically any oil that she isn’t allergic to. I like jojoba and sunflower oils.
Thanks for this recipe! Can I also add 1 teaspoon of Shea butter or will it clog pores ?
You're welcome😊 yes you can add. I will not clog your pores
can i leave the cetyl alcohol out?
Yes you can.
Thanks for the recipe! Can I add a little Shea butter or will it clog pores ?
You can definitely add. A little won't harm.
Does it stay soft?
Yes. Reduce the amount of cetyl alcohol and increase liquid oil if you need more thinner consistency than that is shown in the video.
@@KraftBee thank you
Hi, will this formula mix in skin when its wet? Or should I add some polawax make that happen?
It will absorb quickly. But it still gives you a moisturized coating on the skin. If you don't like that, try emulsified creams. I have one video called "Shea Butter Cream" in our channel.
Could i add isoamyl laurate?
Isoamyl laureate is an ester so you could sub that to the oil content. You would have to proportion it appropriately with your butter as Kokum is a considered a hard butter. Plus this formula has cetyl alcohol as a fatty thickener already so you have to put that in mind as well.
Any alternate for whipping if don’t have the beater
You can try to hand whip continuosly while cooling the butter.
Can u give body butter recipe in percentage,so that we can adjust according to the Total amount of bodybutter when we make.Thanks in advance😊
I have edited the description of the video. You can checkout now!! Thanks for watching 😊
how much fragrance or essential oil should we add ? thanks
