I wouldn't call it a body butter but body cream. You made a thick lotion, hence a cream. It looks luscious and really attractive!
I cannot express how happy I am to be part of your Patreon, this body butter lotion I made over the weekend and it was my first time ever doing it with the emulsifying wax and stearic acid….the way you break is down is AMAZING!! And the finished result is AMAZING!! You’ve got me for life! I loveeee it and your other content as well 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️
Hi Brenda! Thank you so much! I am so glad this recipe worked great for you! Thank you for all of your support!
Is the emulsifying wax you are using, same as Polawax? Thanks for your reply :)
The problem with the beauty industry is that they care more about their product looking good, than selling a products that hasn't been altered, and maintains all its actual benefits. They bleach and machine process their products so they're esthetically pleasing to the eye; and in turn wash away everything valuable in their products. Which is why so many are moving on to natural eco-cert products that aren't refined, bleached or etc.
Agreed
Thank you so much Cory, I made this about an hour ago and I’m so in love with it. I struggled for the longest to come up with a non greasy body butter. This was so easy, my skin loves it. I shared my results on a body butter FB page. So you should have more sales for this body butter recipe coming in. Whoever is reading this, don’t hesitate to purchase. Just do it! You will never by lotion/body butter again because now you can make your own and sell it.
Thank you so much! This has been my go to recipe for years now! It’s a great formula
I had the same issues when i made body butters. I, and everyone else for that matter, HATED the way they would leave the skin greasy for hours on end. I ended up formulating more of a "cream pot" lotion recipe to be called my "body butter" for my shop. Its basically a heavy weight lotion but because of the ratio of butters i use in mine i also call my "lotion" a body butter. I'm so glad to find this video because i was concerned if i was advertising it wrong because i too have water in my "body butter". I love and appreciate all the videos from you that i have watched. What you do is amazing for the community.
I know what you mean about the grease and oil residue your talking about. Some butter leave the oil residue on the skin and I can’t stand it because it sticks to my leather seats and makes my steering wheel slippery because it’s on my hands so I love this recipe! I love watching you as well
Exactly! I can’t stand that feeling, lol! Thank you 😊
I was here for the original version. People loved it, but it soaped a bit. I changed to the more traditional body butter and am going back to the cream version, changing the wax to ritamulse. Thank you for the update version 😊
I made this tonight and I am in AWE!!!!! I absolutely love it!!!!! It took a little longer to set up but once it did I did a dance!!!! Thank you for such an amazing recipe!!!!!
I am so glad you love it!! You are welcome!
I made it and GUESS WHAT
IT TURN TO BE AMAZING
EVEN THOU I DIDNT HAVE E wax so I used BTMS 50 instead and it turn great I think my results were more firm fast more strong consistency but I love it ❤
Thank you so much
Thank you for this revised version and explanations. I have been making the old version for awhile now and everyone absolutely loves it! I’m going to making this new version today! Bravo!
Thank you! I think you’ll appreciate the small changes
This is beautiful. This is not a body butter because it contains water. I absolutely love this. It is a beautiful body cream.
thank you!
Kiehl's, Body Shop, Weleda, all have water
I truly love this product. You make wonderful products but this is the cream of the crop! I wish you had some right now for purchase.
Thank you so much! I do have some in stock, at the moment I have Limoncello and Creme as well as Creamy Tiare and Oats, and Roasted Marshmallow and Cedar and they are all on sale! :)
Thank you for this update. I love you new hair color and cut looks very vibrant .
Thant you so much!
Thank you for all you do. Your videos teach me soooooooo much. They are thorough and detailed. Beautiful products!!
Thank you so much! Keep me posted if you try this recipe!
Thanks. It’s vreneli clear. I want to try thaïs recipe but the weight of each ingredient is not notify
Thank you for this video❤️ I wish you told us the percentage of the water and butter

I made it again following the exact measurements and it’s amazing ❤❤
I LOVE IT 💟💟
However I divided into 4 different scents so I used fragrance oils differently
I used 1 table spoon per batch I hope it’s ok
Any suggestions??
Please anyone
i think that some times even the fragrance could react like some fragrance in cold process soap could cause the fresh soap mix to accelerate and in some liquid soaps where you want the soap clear, or thick, some fragrance could make it "milky" or thin.....so i think that could also be the case here as well......since i have not made bath and beauty products, though i want to which is why i look into these videos and many soap makers do get this same question as well.......and it's nice to know that this thinning of product doesn't just happen with soap but also with body butters and lotions as well.....thanks for the tutorial........
I am now a proud patreon and I am so impressed by this recipe. I did adjust it to make it how I like it. But it is for sure non greasy creamy and lightweight. If you are not a patreon please do so. This lovely queens recipes are soooo high quality! Thanks Cory
Thank you Monae! I’m so glad you love this recipe and the Patreon content!
Just made this tonight! Eucalyptus Spearmint with Mint Green color. So awesome. Thanks Cory!!
That sounds fantastic!
Thank you so much, I couldn't find your old recipe. Love all your products!
You are welcome!
Hi! I made your original body butter from 2 years ago and I love making it! Thank you. Now I am teaching my version.
Please can you tell us the measurements of each ingredient that you use? Thank you very much

Just got done making this and i love it..so glad I decided to be a patreon
That is awesome! I’m glad you love it!
No matter how thick or thin you make that if you’re adding water, it’s a lotion. It doesn’t matter whether use oils or not It’s still a lotion.
Thank you for sharing! Please clarify....I've heard that refined Shea butter won't have the bioactive nutrients such as Vitamins A, D & E that raw unrefined Shea butter has, because up to 75% of the nutrients are lost during the refining/heating process. Is this true?
Hi there, I have never heard this, I am not sure.
I’ve never made any skincare products before, I joined your Patreon and bought everything from Bramble berry that was listed. My body butter is currently cooling down, it was SO simple to make thank you so much! I’ll be making your foam scrub next 😍
It looks lucious! Thank you ❤
Thank you for this video, It's very helpful. I'll be making this for myself today 💃 can't wait to give it a try.. Please do write down the measurements you used... Much love from Nigeria
Very nice mam, looks like ice cream.. wonderful mam...
will it melt in humid climates mam
Hi Cory! I had gave up but now back into it. I'll be signing back to your Patreon. I really enjoy learning from you ☺️ Thanks for the awesomeness 🌹
Fantastic!! Keep me posted!
Cory, Is there a reason why you didn’t put the hot oils in the fridge or freezer to cool them down and then whip them when they are cooled
Looks absolutely divine! Joined your Patreon, and can't wait!. Do you list not let them completely cool before putting lid on so don't have to worry about condensation??
Thanks!
Thank you so much for the super thanks! I really appreciate it!
Thanks for sharing Cory! I’m definitely going to try this as my summer butter recipe! It’s so crazy that I ordered pink and blue sugar type from NG yesterday and was trying to figure out what I was going to make with it! Then I see this video flash in my notification 👏🏾 I guess it was meant for me to buy those lol. Have you tried Blue Sugar type? I watch another UA-camr who LOVES the pink so said let me see what all the hype is about. Keep shining beautiful ❤️
Thank you so much! This butter does great in the summertime and I think you are going to love it!! I think you will also love pink sugar...so good! I have tried blue sugar a long time ago. If I recall it was more masculine but could definitely be unisex. I remember liking it, but not as much as pink sugar. Keep me posted on how you like it and how your butter turns out!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany definitely! Waiting for new NG jars. I’m very excited to try this recipe ❤️
Love your lotion and sugar scrub recipes! And so do family and friends. I cant wait to try this one. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!
That is awesome!! I’m so glad you love these products!
It's great
Hello..quick question..so on the ? Oz of Shea Butter & ?oz of mango butter..can i substitute one of the butters for carrier oils?
I am very happy to be a part of your Patreon 🙂 I have a question . Which pigment type do you recommend for this butter?
Beautiful, thank you, God bless you
How does it do in heat? Like if I mail it to my Aunt in Vegas? I am guessing with the wax and steric it holds itself together well in the heat?
With adding the water and other additives would this prevent the butters from melting during shipping transit in the summer? I need a new spring/summer recipe 🥰
Hi, yes, this recipe ships beautifully in the Summer months.
Wow, this looks perfect!! Now where do I get your recipe? I only make products for friends and family now
Could you take 1 oz of each shea and mango out to sub in 2 oz cocoa butter?
Hi Cory! I’ve been making this for a while now and I was wondering if this recipe can be master batched? Like maybe add everything except the fragrance and colorant? Then store sealed until ready to use and add additives? If so would I just hand mix them in? Thank you!!
Hi, yes you can do that. When I have done that in the past, I have used an electric mixer to add the scent into individual batches.
Great body cream... 💓
Are all of the fragrance oils from the website safe to put in body butter?
This is really good. I am enjoying your videos. Questions: do you have a recipe that does not require water? And can the persevertive be used without water? Do you have a recipe with butter and oils?
Hi Keeshi, yes! I have a whipped body butter video (recipe on patreon) that does not have any water. It also does not have any preservative. You can add in a preservative to the whipped body butter but it doesn't need it. Thanks for watching.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany does this one require a preservative because of the added water?
Please 🙏 write the ingredients and quantity...
I loved your videos 😍😍...
Thanks so much sister 💕
Hi there, this formula is available on my patreon campaign. The link is in the description box of this video.
Cory, I wish you could hear people constantly tell me how they are amazed and in love with this body butter. They tell me "I can't believe you made this, you're a genius" and of course I tell them that you created this recipe and I just make it but they can't believe how non greasy and luscious it is. I was asked to make this recipe and add some gold shimmer mica.....not sure how much to add. I'll have to do some testing. This body butter is truly the best body butter in the world.
Thank you! It really has been a perfect recipe! So simple, yet so luscious!
Hello I'm having a hard time figuring out all the percentages and what ingredient needs to be at what percentage. Do you happen to have any videos showing these steps?
@@lee8445 hi there! I don’t have a video specifically on this topic. But, I suggest researching usage rates on all products you are wanting to use and what is an appropriate amount for what you are making.
I made this last night and the butter came out perfect. I love this method. I added some bronze mica to this butter.
What is the shelf life for this body butter?
I’m so glad you love it! The bronze mica sounds lovely 💕
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany What's the shelf life of this product?
Hi! I am beginning my body butter business and I have done a lot of research snd I’ve tried many products. One thing is for sure. I do not like all the oily/greasy butters I’ve tried. Thanks for this video. One question. I am interested in this particular way but curious as to why you stopped piping the butter into the container with this recipe?
You are welcome!! I just find it less time consuming to scoop it in, it is still very pipeable, lol!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany Good to know! One more question! Where did you purchase your containers from to mix your ingredients. I want to be sure I get the recycle 5
@@Jas_Speaks I got them from a local food supply store in my area called smart and final. I think you can also find them on amazon if you do a search for soap making containers.
Is this safe to use during pregnancy? Thank you so much!
Love ur channel pls ma does cocoa butter tone the skin thank you
Pls can I put it in the freezer to cool down and get thicker faster before whipping?
Hello, thank you for the video. Please where do you purchase your ingredients?????
I have a friend that is allergic to Shea butter is there something else I can use?
Thank you for sharing this video. I have a candle & soap business and have been thinking about adding body butter and sugar scrub. Did you add any fo/eo to this batch?
You are welcome! Yes I add FO to this body butter.
What can i do better to avoid fragrence oil from separating?
Im a beginner learning cosmetic..diy. Can you claim this natural body butter? Thank you so much..
Sorry to comment again but after watching this video in its entirety I wanted to tell you the story of my first time making this body butter. Well I followed the directions and I was sitting there waiting for it to thicken and I didn't realize that it takes hours to thicken completely...lol (sometimes my brain doesn't function and it was my first time ever making lotion/body butter) so I dumped it out. Then I made it a second time and again I was like, why isn't this thickening? It's been a half hour and it's still so fluid!? So I went to dump it again and my husband grabbed the tub of body butter away from me and says "it probably takes more than a few minutes to thicken! Give it time!" So after two hours or so he checks on it and it was thickening up nicely. So I felt a little sick about wasting a beautiful batch of this but now I love to make it and I'm more patient. Thank God for my hubby because who knows what I'd be doing if he didn't stop me LOL
lol! That is the best story EVER!! This body butter does take a while to thicken up so I am so glad you shared this experience! This will help so many people making it the first time.
Thanks for the great video and information. Can you use arrowroot powder as a thickener instead?
Hi there, no, arrowroot powder would not be an appropriate thickener here. You can use cetyl alcohol, or stearic acid.
Many thanks!
Please help me with the measuring of water and oils
Do you ever not use an emulsifier wax.... I won't use them on my body at all because it puts a very harmful layer on skin and hair.
How do you know how much steric acid and emulsifying wax to use?
Every ingredient has suggested usage rates for what you are making. Then you experiment with those usage rates until you get a product you like.
Would it melt at 100 degrees farenheit? Would it melt in the summer?
Where did you get your containers from please
Thanks for sharing! Could you use a single wall amber jar for packaging or do you have to use the double wall?
Yes, you can use a single wall PET jar.
You can definitely use a single wall jar!
Hi Cory, I enjoy your video and signed up to your Patreon.
I tried a smaller batch of this recipe last night. It hasn't been a full 24 hrs yet. It's a very moisturizing and non greasy recipe. The only issue (which I wanted to ask for clarification) is mine feels very fluffy like a souffle instead of a thick cream-likr consistency. Did I over whip it? It certainly does the job for it's intended purpose but would appreciate some feedback so I know how to improve on the end product. Thank you ♥️
The step after you added + stick blended your cool down ingredients (preservative + FO), do you continue to blend or just let the batter thicken as it cools. I continued to alternate in hand stirring & hand stick blending. Then I used a stand-up mixer to whip. Maybe I shouldn't have whipped it and let it just sit and setup to that thick consistency I want
@@sauboonsoaps Hi there, I am so glad you like this recipe. Yes, it sounds like you may have incorporated air into it while whipping. I usually give it another blend with the stick blender after the cool down ingredients are added to make sure everything is completely combined. Then I allow it to cool.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany thank you for the feedback. I think I was flipping between different videos of yours and the end of the process in making the body butter I was watching the whipped lotion video instead 😅 that's why I whipped it instead of letting it sit and thicken. I'll try another small test batch today and update ya. It's really a great recipe. I'm so happy already with my skin softness from applying it last night
@@sauboonsoaps 😊 keep me posted!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany It turned out perfect in my second test batch!!! Super absorbent, non greasy, thick creme. Thank you ♥️
Can I use btms 50 instead of the e wax ?
You can call it whatever you like ?... WATER = Lotion. No other name for it... The fact all oils are hard doesn't change the fact its a lotion...
The Body Shop sells EMULSIFIED body butters (containing water) and sells them as just that. the consistency is that of a body butter meaning its a body butter, a "lotion" has to have more than i believe 70% water making the end product thinner and LOTION-LIKE
@@ritualcareco.3649 Call it whatever you like but ANY water regardless of percentage is a lotion. Body butter is all butters with sometimes oils to thin. No water and no preservative needed. Granted its a super thick lotion, and I like it! The body shop simply calls it emulsified body butter for marketing purposes, but technically it's a lotion.
Hey. Can you please tell me what's the shelf life of this butter? Looks amazing
Hi Anne, this should last about a year from the purchase date of your butters.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany thanks a lot
Is that normal water or?
Hello .. i don’t see the recipe in the membership
Hi, this recipe is available on my patreon campaign. The link is in the bio.
Thank you for the tutorial. Shea butter should never be brown or grey- this is not great shea butter. It should be ivory or cream in colour. I love your work.
Thank you so much!
Can this type of body butter be whipped and pipped?
Yes, you can whip it, when it gets close to room temperature and pipe it in.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany thanks!
6:46 did I miss the weight amount for the Shea and mango butter and wax
Cory, love you products and everything that you do. But this in regarding my account, can't get log in and I don't received any link to up date my password..
Hi there, I am sorry but I don’t have any access to accounts or passwords on patreon. You will need to reach out to patreon directly about this issue.
since you used water do you need to use a preservative such as optiphen?
yes, in this video she added her preservative into her fragrance and mixed it well.
Formulas containing no water (Anhydrous) don't need water however its highly recommended especially in products where a person will dip their hands in. I would also in this case recommended an antioxidant so just to keep the oils in the product fresher longer. However, any formulation containing even a drop of water(Aqueous) 100% needs a preservative. It is a non negotiable. Be careful when choosing preservatives because some only work in Anhydrous formulations and some only work in Aqueous.
Can you use a regular kitchen aid mixer with wisk?
Nevermind. You recommended stick blending. Thank you so much
lol, no problem, yes you really need a stick blender.
Hello dear. If you are adding water then it’s not body butter. It’s emulsion
Can you please list all the measurements and grams you used for this batch please ?
Hi there, this recipe is available for a $5 pledge on my Patreon campaign, link in the description box of the video.
Hi... Lovely recipe... May i know the recipe also please.

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany so lovely and i love the way and thought you want the fellow makers to know really good things which will help them grow.
Thank you for the great video! JESUS bless you‼🙏🏼🙌🏼✝️❤
So there’s a difference between body butter, body cream and lotion. What you made is a very nice body cream.
Definitely not a whipped body butter, which I prefer opposed to a body butter with water added in the ingredient.
@@kaycee6036 yes, I prefer a body butter over any type of butter that includes water. It seems to me body butter actually works butter when it comes to healing problematic skin conditions....if water needs to be added, use aloe Vera
Basically it’s just a thicker lotion, I love my old fashion whipping body butter. That type of butter is good for the summertime so it won’t melt😍❤️😁😩
Quien me puede compartir la receta?
Where is the recipe please

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany thank I did find it. 😊
What if you want to add oils
You can, this will turn it into more of a lotion consistency
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany ok thank you, question I am trying to come up with a standard recipe to make 40 2oz body butters with cbd powder and add frangrance oils for different scents. I live in Texas and its hot. I want to use coco butter and shea butter and be able to make it year round. How much would you charge me to make a recipe ?
@@latashaepps1060 I actually don’t create formulas for people privately. I do have a Patreon campaign where this recipe is published along with so many more. The link is in the bio.
Oi sou Brasileira você pode traduzir em português o que você fala por favor
Esquece ..ela nunca faz traducao.
Sounds like a cream, not a lotion or body butter.
Nope never liked water in my body butter
