Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! The jar actually came from our local Dollar Tree. I'm honestly not so sure the inversion hand mixer would work too well, although it's worth a try. Simply using a metal serving spoon should also be a good alternative. Hope this helps!

You're welcome! 😊

Hi Madeline! We use tapioca starch for a few reasons: - Reduces the greasiness of the body butter - Helps absorb excess oil on the skin - Acts as a kind of thickener and gives the body butter a more silk, smooth consistency - You could substitute this with arrowroot powder or cornstarch which many people use but Tapioca starch was pretty cheap to get compared to arrowroot powder and we found in our research that it was much less likely to clog pores compared to cornstarch Hope that helps!

Hi! Idk that this would be perfect, but what I would recommend is replacing the cocoa butter and shea butter with mango butter and then adding some mango extract. Mango butter actually doesn't smell like mango but it would provide a good neutral base scent that would allow the mango extract to fit in perfectly. The texture of the body butter would be different than ours so you might have to play with it a bit. Hope that helps and let us know how it goes!

@@TheGoodnessWell ok thanx

Hello! Since all the ingredients in this are anhydrous (contain no water), it doesn't need any preservatives and should last up to 1-2 years at least. Just avoid getting any water in the butter. Storing at room temperature is perfect. Keeping it away from heat and light will help extend its shelf life as well.

Great question! Since all the ingredients are either oil-based or anhydrous (doesn't contain water) the body butter does not need a preservative. Just be sure you don't introduce a lot of moisture like putting wet hands into the butter or something like that.

Isn't glycerine water based?

@@nikita5919 Great question! Glycerin isn’t water-based but is water-soluble and acts as a humectant, drawing in moisture to hydrate the skin. As long as you don’t introduce water (like wet hands) into the container it won’t spoil, though it’s fine once it’s on your skin. Honestly, a little water in the jar shouldn’t hurt, but it’s best practice to avoid it. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for pointing that out!

This is enough to make a total of 56oz as buying all the ingredients will give you enough to make the recipe twice. Following the recipe will yield you roughly 28 oz. Let us know how it goes! 😊

@@TheGoodnessWell thank you

It was a fun project! Let us know how it goes
