OMG! You have no idea how long I've been trying to find a video that shows the ingredients of how to get the thickness and clear consistency for a gel for me. I'm trying to learn how to make edge control lol
You can also mix guar and xanthan at .5% each. I find it does improve the texture, viscosity and stability in soap products. I am loving this combination for my higher pH natural liquid soaps that will not thicken with salt. I love aristoflex in my hand sanitizers!
I have tried using Guar Gum (food grade) a few months ago in a diy product and it did not mix well at all. I thought maybe I did something wrong so I tried it again and got the same results. Now I know I need to purchase either the cosmetic grade of Guar Gum or go straight to Xanthan Gum. Thanks!!!
@@Peaceoflagos i did the same i mixed 2gm xanthun gum with 5gm of glycerine and then added to 93gm of water but it doesn't make gel it's runny n flowy consistency like water

Yaya hi I was curious what would make the most stabilizing shiny lip gloss base. As I’m trying to no longer use premise base and create my own I’m nervous because you said for the first one to stay stable you have to use less than 5 percent oil
@@Cocoamour96 I have not tested the Aristoflex AVC to make a lip gloss yet, but if I had to choose; I would say it has the best texture and stability for a lip gloss. It is also lip safe 👌🏽 And yes, it can only bond oil-in-water emulsions that have 5% or less of the oil phase. Anything more may destabilize the product and cause the oil and water phases to separate. Good luck with your creation.
You just saved me some coin and a trip to the store 😂 Feeling lazy to head out to the store for Aloe Vera gel and Amazon is selling the one I want at twice the amount I paid for it at my local health store. I have Aloe Vera juice in my fridge and food grade Xanthan gum in my pantry, so I guess I’m good to go. 😊 👍🏽 ** Edit ** OMG I just made me some Aloe Vera gel. My nieces are going to love me. They’re constantly buying gel and I haven’t made flaxseed gel in over a year. I love flaxseed gel but it is kind of time consuming. This took less than five minutes with a mixer. Mixed it in a bowl then transferred it to a jar (just kind of plopped in there on it’s own 😂). Thank you so much for this. 😘
@@razialatheef5742 you can also use Guar gum. I usually use anywhere from 1/4 tsp to 1 tsp of guar gum or Xanthan gum with vegetable glycerin. So I would suggest mixing 1/2 tsp of your gum with 1 tbsp of glycerin then add it to the aloe vera. The more you mix the aloe the thicker the gel will become. If you need it thicker mix more gum with glycerin to add to your aloe vera (this needs to be done separately, do not add it straight to the already made mixture). Hope this helps. Let me know how it turned out. Good luck 😊
Oluwatomiwa Ayonrinde Thank you so much for sharing. I have done it with glycerin, but I didn’t want to add another variable in this test. I wanted it to show each one just in water. I hope that makes sense. Lol

I keep reading "add salt, add salt, add glycerin..." but with not a lot of details on how much, in what ratios, or when or at what temperatures... and also none of those worked for thickening my shampoo, like at ALL.

Yaya you should totally make a DIY gel recipe for us maybe add a higher percentage of ingredients and shows us how to ad oils next time ❤️ I would be so interested in that
Yes! Loved this tutorial! I’ve been mixing for 8 years and I think that the best comparison on making gel soluble things. My fave was the aristo one 🌹🤍
I am so glad you uploaded. This isolation has upped my DIY game. You just reminded me. I bought a tiny immersion blender but I still didn’t receive it yet. I forgot all about it.
I'm so curious about where you got your knowledge on how to make professional hair products! I've been wanting to make something for myself, but I want to properly educate myself first =)
Tenicia Van Aalten I promise I am still learning myself. I go into the kitchen and test, test, and test again lol. I also research peer review articles/journals, as well as learn from other fellow UA-camrs. They are all helpful, but most of my experience comes from failing. I get it wrong, I note my mistake, and I try again. 😊💜 I hope this helps.
I really like the clear xantham gum, it reminds me of curling custards and jellies, or even that pre-poo by African Pride. I prefer the stringy, loose texture of it over the solid firm gel you get with the first product but I'll likely be using all three at some point! I really love and appreciate videos like these, they are so helpful for people who frequently do DIY recipes.
Vay Babe I agree with you. They all can be utilized in some way and even used together to formulate a more stable, final product. I will do my best to keep these type of videos coming. I am so happy that they are helpful. 😊💜
Hi Yaya! I just recently found out that Lotion Crafters is selling Sodium Carbomer already pre-neutralized so it gells as soon as you mixed it! It seems very inexpensive at least 22$ something for a pound and 4$ something for onzs! So pleaseeee make a hair gel with it 🙏🏼 I guess it wouldn't have a hold but it would be cool to see what sorts of ingredients you add to it and how it gels and compares to these others!!
This was/is THE BEST video ever!!! Did you mention aristoflex is natural or ie food grade some can be a little caution you know what I mean.. thx again
Thank you for the kind words! The Aristoflex AVC is a synthetic gelling agent. It is not natural, but it is also not harmful. Very delicate, light gelling agent. The Xanthan gum clear is naturally derived and the guar gum is food grade. I do not recommend using food grade ingredients in formulations. I hope this helps 💜
Thanks for the video; the guar gum may have worked better in hot water or maybe boiled but I can see why you didn’t so that your test would be consistent x
Would you please test different preservatives to see which will mold or go bad first? Also, can you show us how to add percentages for lotions and hair gels? Love your voice.
Woow this is a wealth of information. Thank you so much for this. Is it possible to put these products in aloe Vera or flaxseed or add any other ingredients to these gels to make them better for the health of our hair? Thank you very much
Great video very helpful. I was unsure of what I wanted to use to create a leave in conditioner and a gel but this was very helpful for me to make my final decision. Thanks
LoL I love watching your videos. I call them my confirmation videos. I had just told my sister and husband last month that I was going to make my own gels because soon they will be off the shelves and lo and behold one of my favorite UA-camrs popped up with a video letting me know...sis, you better get on it 😂. Thanks for the amazing information as always.
29msmoni I believe they all will work fine with alcohols depending on percentage used. However, I know that Aristoflex AVC can be very sensitive. It does not work with Aloe Vera, salts in general; like hydrolyzed proteins. I hope this helps.
Hi Yaya, could you please make another video using your more natural ingredients? like another hair moisturizer using (varisoft, And i think you used ritamulse too) Thanks!!
TheBritFix I will absolutely do that. I have been experimenting a lot and I want to show versatility; but I want to make sure I do not forget about natural hair care in the process 😊💜
Dear friend .... its a amazing program and I got and educated around several areas. First of all Im thanking you and I need another advice from you, because of in this period Im doing some experiments for making dishwashing Jelly soap. Let me know plz, can I use this first solution " Aristoflex AVC " as the solution for my dishwash product. Waiting for your feedback plz .....
I just ordered a magnetic stirrer and I wish I would have gotten the one that was a combo hot plate/stirrer and you can get some very affordable different models now
In the food industry you often use xanthan gum and guar gum together, for a synergic effect (i.e. 80:20 guar:xanthan, with heating 80°C for optimal hydration). Maybe that works for your usage too :-)
Thank you so much for this video. I'm about to go down the gum/thickener rabbit hole and was so pleased that you had a video. Question - Can any of these gums be combined. Also, I was so downed when you said that Xantham gum was not an emulsifier. I so thought that it would be. I want to kee it natural but love the viscosity of the synthetic gum. Is there a natural thickner that would produce that result?
This is very helpful and informative. I heard that guar gum can add slip? Is that true? I want to make a shea + aloe/flax gel/marshmallow creation w/ ultimate slip. Also when can guar gum be used on its own as an emulsifier and when is it time to go for the BTMS 50? Thanks!
Jason Henson This will depend on what you are trying to make. If you are adding co-emulsifiers or thickeners for like a lotion or curling custard, you can definitely use less. Like 1.5% And yes, the blender will definitely work to hydrate all of the guar gum. Does this help answer your question?
Question. If we wanted to add more things to it to make a hair gel (or in case for the first one - a lotion) when would it best to add the solid phrase since it thickens so fast? Sorry if this is a dumb question.
No question is dumb. Trust me lol. For Aristoflex AVC, as long as the oil phase is 5% or less, you can add a butter, etc. You will have to melt the butter down and then let it slightly cool. Then you will combine the water, the gelling agent, and the oil phase at the same time. Mix and you will have a lotion or depending on if you use a liquid oil instead; a gel. I hope this helps. Xanthan gum clear can not act as an emulsifier, so this will not work. Guar gum can act as an emulsifier, but I would also watch the water-to-oil ratio. Hope this helps.
@@YayaDIYCreations This did help. Thank you soo much! So glad your back. Are you mixing these in a 4oz distill water? Once to make sure I get the water ratio correct lol
@@kenishawhite4874 You are so welcome. Glad to help. It is a little under 4 oz. Just about 96 grams, which would be roughly about 3.40 oz. And yes the water is distilled.
