The best natural Leather Balm - How we make ours!

In this video I’m going to be showing you how we make our leather balm. This recipe is completely natural and as a result is safe on your skin and around children. Our recipe is 1 part cocoa butter, 1 part unrefined beeswax and 2 parts sweet almond oil.

Some leather experts (like Rose Anvil) say using oils that expire relatively quickly (i.e. tend to be high in unsaturated fats) is bad for leather and expire/rot in the leather causing damage. Sweet almond oil definitely fits this bill. Should we be concerned? Is there anything you do to prevent this?
Thank You!

Neatsfoot oil is the best with carnauba wax, beeswax & Shea/ Cocoa buttee

Does the almond oil turn rancid?

[@koogle612]

Very close to my conditioner (just learning) stearic acid (2%) emulsifier also lowers pH to come closer to tanned leather pH. I add a sm % of pure orange oil (softens/nourishes, inhibits any bacterial or microbial growth & smells nice) 1%. I just wanted to make a simple shoe polish & now have about 10 pgs of notes & all kinds of ingredients. There is a great paper written on this subject - google Oliver Rothenberger patent 2012 patent. I learned a ton from this.

Hi there, thanks for your video. Why don’t you use coconut oil instead coconut butter?

[@yvleathercraft]

He is not using coconut butter. It's cocoa or cacao in some other countries. So it's the same butter used in chocolat.

[@canteronequinenz6743]

could you make these scented?

[@teresagibson4946]

This recipe is going to smell like chocolate.

[@maxjamesgoods1186]

no reason why not, just add a small amount of whatever scent you like
