I have being making my own butters now for 15 years and I love it . I can’t see myself using commercial drug store bought products as they are full of chemicals . Face and body butters are the best. PRAISE GOD. For his natural creation . In JESUS MIGHTY NAME AMEN 😊🙏🕊🩸
Hi Deb! You definitely can! You can use arrow root powder as a direct substitute for the tapioca starch. And while refined butters have a little less nutrients they are still great to use. The overall consistency will be the same
Check out Soaper's Choice for your ingredients also organic, way less expensive since you're cutting out the third middle man. Their products are great quality organic raw unrefined. I hope this helps.
I noticed you recommend Soper’s choice. I went online to check it out and their prices are pretty darn cheap. Can you tell me about the quality of these products?
I just found your channel love your recipe. I’ve been making lotions for a long time now I will try your recipe. I’d like to say that when I do mine, I whip it in my standmixer and it comes out so fluffy so amazing. I don’t know if you’ve tried this, but it sure looks and feels fluffy and soft!
Hi! If you have access to arrowroot powder, you can use it as a 1:1 substitute for tapioca starch. If cornstarch is your only option, it should work as well, though it might not be an exact 1:1 replacement but I think it will be just fine
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!
Thank you so much for making this video!! I will be making this! Where did you get the a jar from? And could I use a hand inversion mixer since I don’t have a hand mixer?
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!
Hi Diane! The cocoa butter smell is what gives the butter its strong chocolate scent. It dominates the smell of the butter so you really don't smell the shea butter much. You can always try refined shea butter which has an even milder scent than regular shea butter. Or you can replace the shea butter with mango butter. Mango butter is a bit firmer than shea butter (but less firm than cocoa butter) so you might have to reduce the amount of cocoa butter and up the mango butter a bit to try to get the same consistency. 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!
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.
@@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!
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.
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! 😊

Can you use arrow root powder and refined butters
Hi Deb! You definitely can! You can use arrow root powder as a direct substitute for the tapioca starch. And while refined butters have a little less nutrients they are still great to use. The overall consistency will be the same
Looks easy enough…I will definitely try to make it. Thank you

VERY INFORMATIVE, WELL DONE 😇👍🏾

Hi Sylvia! Unfortunately I don't have a stand mixer but when I get one I will sure be trying that on our next batch. Thanks for the tip!
Thanks so much for making this video! I loved it from beginning to end

What is the benefit of tapioca starch?

- Reduces the greasiness of the body butter
- Helps absorb excess oil on the skin

Where did you get your jar that you put the final product in?
Dollar Tree 😎

Hiya, what makes it smell nice as I really can't stand the smell of shea butter
Hi Diane! The cocoa butter smell is what gives the butter its strong chocolate scent. It dominates the smell of the butter so you really don't smell the shea butter much. You can always try refined shea butter which has an even milder scent than regular shea butter. Or you can replace the shea butter with mango butter.

Thank you so much ❤❤
Awesomeness! I would like to have a mango scent when I try my hand at this with your recipe. What would you recommend?

Want to know about preservative?

Isn't glycerine water based?

87$ how many batches does that make and how much per batch ? 10- 12 oz packages each for
