This recipe is lovely. You can easily scoop it out of the jar because it's so light and fluffy, but be warned a little goes a long way! It glides on smoothly, absorbs quickly (about 5 mins max) and leaves my skin soft to the touch. I like to put it on before bed so it has all night to work it's magic. Needless to say I'm a fan.
Awesome, Thank you Selina :)
Thank you so much, Deano! I am loving your mulberry fragrance, it smells amazing and I simply cannot wait to get to use this product daily!
I am so glad Selina. You should get it in 10 odd days. :)
Thanks Dean, a lovely creamy body butter. How lovely to gift this to a special friend. Supportive friends are worth their weight in gold blessed be x
Hi, I am impressed with your work. I want to learn from you about skin tightening cream, ingredients, proportions, and many thanks.
I’ve never made body butters so I have nothing to compare this to but I Tried your recipe except I made lavender-chamomile. But let me just say I will never use store bought lotion again lol! It looked like icing or whipped Cream. Felt REALLY silky when I rubbed it on my skin and melted back into an oil if you hold it in your hand. And the best part is that I felt soft and silky after using it. More hydrating than any lotion! My only word of advice is a little bit goes a long way! If you use too much it will look like you were super oily. Anyways LOVED IT!!! Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe!
Awesome, im glad you like it. It was a recipe I found on RUclips, so please check the link in the video description for the original video.
Thanks for the video Dean. I whipped up a small batch of Body Butter and it turned out pretty good. My wife and daughter-in-law love it.
Awesome to hear :)
I bet the mulberry smells amazing!!!!
Sure is.
Love it! I’ve never done a whipped body butter. I like to do lotion bars with bees wax - I can pour them into mint tins and carry them in my purse.
Wow, I have used her recipe myself! It's a good one too. I began making my own body butters using her recipe a few times.
Let's try this again...I love making my own body butter and my favourite scent is lavender and lemon...
It's great to have good friends to help us through difficult times. I think you've made a very nice gift for Selina.
Thanks Kathy, Selina says she loves it. :)
That was great Dean. I do a moisturizer for myself and it has shea butter, emulsifying wax, olive oil, honey and water. I put a preservative in it tho as the recipe calls for it.
Sounds nice. Anything with water needs a preservative right?
I'm not an expert, but that would make sense to put a preservative in it, if it does have water. You don't want any mold growing.
Jar & label looks great! Thank you for the video.
This looks amazing for the skin. I will have to try this, thanks for making this and all your other videos!
hope Selena loved her body butter :) Another great video, Dean-- Thanks so much!!!
She did. She loves it :) Thanks
Wonderful skin jewels. .. great whipping too, so light and fluffy. ♥💛
Wow! This is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.
So simple and looks lovely
great recipe ! can you use jojoba oil instead of sweet almond? that is what I have, but if not possible I'll get some almond oil
That should be fine, but I would do a small test bottle for yourself first and make sure it works before selling them.
This looks very luxurious.
Thanks so much for making this video!
Thanks Dean!
I followed her recipe a while ago. I loved it although it was a tad greasy.
Did you add the Cocoa Butter? She does in her recipe, that might help.
I am sure I did, did you feel the batch you made was greasy?
No, not greasy at all, it fact it was very creamy and smooth and melted on my skin with no greasy feeling.
I will have to try it again. Either way, I really liked it.
I added two teaspoons of arrowroot powder to combat the greasiness.
Thanks for sharing can’t wait to try
Thank you !!! Will try it today.
Hi, if allergic to coconut oil will using 50% shea butter and 50% almond oil be okay?
I have only tested this recipe. I cant say if it will work without coconut. Sorry
@@DeanWilson I appreciate your reply nevertheless so thank you
Hi Dean. Is it always the rule of thumb when making lotions with butters and oils that you don't need a preservative. I don't want the person having to keep it in the fridge. I bought phenonip and I also bought polysorbate 20. I'm so unsure and don't want to mess up the batch. I know that when water is used that a preservative is needed . Just wondered if on your search you'd heard of anyone using a preservative.I was so excited to see you branching into new territory. Love this simple recipe.I bought the jars in a smoked brown glass to help with temperature control. I have a nice eco style label I use. Lovin your videos. I binge watch them.
I heard the same thing Ellie. That is why I didnt use water in this recipe. If I did, then I would need to add a preservative - something I don't current have. Glad you love the videos :)
Another question that i have, what's the last thing you added? A drop of it?
Looks great. What is the shelf life on a product like this?
About 1 year I would say.
just to be clear the coconut butter is what makes it stay soft right?
or is it leaving it on the boiler for twenty mins like another youtube did?
I have only ever tried this recipe and it worked perfectly. Im sure you could sub the coconut oil for another oil but im not 100% of this, it might make it too soft.
Wow! I just love the simplicity and speed of your videos. Just one question , what is the correct way to use body butter? Maybe it's a stupid question, but I seriously don't know. Also Dean, could you please make a video on organic face cream? Let the videos keep coming. Best regards, Supriya. India.
I like to let the cream cure in the jar for about 2-3 days before using it. When you do use it, just a small amount on your finger at one time, a little goes a long way and using too much will make your skin very oily. Im not sure about face cream.. I have never made that but when I move this year I will be getting my YT channel back with more videos so I will put it on my todo list. :)
Thank you so much. Looking forward to seeing new videos by you.
Please can I add a lightening powder to this or use carrot oil and lemon oil
I am not sure, I was using someone else recipe.. Your need to test to make sure it works first. I suggest small lots.
@@DeanWilson Thank you so much
@@DeanWilson If it works perfectly for light skin,I guess there's no need to add anything
Does it work for light skin?
It should work for any types of skin. I am not sure what my skin is. Being a man its a little rough but im fair skinned.
There are so many recipes out there, but I love this one the most cause it keeps it simple! However, my body butter tends to harden after storing for a few days. Does this mean I need to whip it even more next time? Or less? It's a little cold in my house, about 67F, could that be why?
My body butters were soft for about a week then they harden up. However once it hits the skin it melts.
Great work Sir.... one question do we need to add any kind of preservatives? Or the oils will take care by them selves? Please do let me know Sir
I believe you only need to add preservatives when water is added or any ingredients that goes off quickly that can create germs.
Anyone?
Sir I guess you are right in this formulation no water No contamination possibility. Thanks again sir really enjoy watching your videos .
Nice. Thanks for sharing.
I think you should do a 1hr approx video on the new Ecosoya Q210 bead Soy Wax and what Skincare, Massage Candles you can use it in and the amazing Hot & Cold Scent throw it gives off.. it’s the take over from the flakey Ecosoya CB135 & I absolutely love it
Cool. I would need to look into that, im not up to date on all the new waxes.
Excuse me, how to apply thr percentages into how many spoons?
You cant do that. What size spoon? how much does a spoon accept in weight? Too many values, keep it on a scale and it will be fine.
Hello Mr. Dean
If we had to use only Cocoa butter and Almond oil what will be the proportion of each ingredient.
Can it be 1:1 ratio.
Kindly advise
Hi, I was following another RUclipsrs recipe so I dont know the answer to that. All I know is this recipe I made works perfectly.
Okay, so I have a question, Dean. Instead of the sweet almond oil, what can I use? I can not find any and this is the best video I could find on making smooth body butter creme. Thank you in advance.
I use sweet almond oil because it was recommended in the video I followed. There is a link to her video in the video description. I have not tried other oils so I cant comment on which one would be best.
Looks awesome! Can a microwave be used to melt the oils as well?
I would think so yes. However just the oils that need melting. Coconut Oil, Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter. As sweet almond oil is liquid I would add that after the microwave.
Would really love to try making this
Its really easy, 3 ingredients and some hand whisking and its yours. :)
Love it, I made it, Thank You #deanwilson & #nikishariley
I made 4 of this version
Then I made another 4 using the Cocoa Butter + Vitamin E - Scented Almond Biscotti (from Aussie Soap Supplies
Then 4 Using Avocado Oil - instead of Sweet Almond Oil - Scented Bergamot Essential Oil
Then 4 using Jojoba Oil + Vitamin E + Zinc Oxide - Scented Vanilla
4 using Castor Oil + Vitamin E - Scented Energy Blend
And so on, I use the 6oz Like deans but a Peach Colour BPA Free Plastic Jars (from Nutrimetics factory after they shut down, have a friend that used to work for them - got 554 Jars with lids - have used around 150)
This is a Excellent recipe and great as a base for you to make your own take on to make it your own... I ask that if you make this and your selling it, please give Credit to @deanwilson & @nikishariley - it’s courtesy to give credit when credit is due.
Natasha Chillaxing Melts, Candles & Body Products how long would be the shelf life for this?
Awesome!! I’m planning on making the above mix with cocoa butter and Vit E - 1/2 cup of each shea butter, cocoa butter, coconut oil & almond oil. However, I’m unsure of the Vit E quantity. Any advice? Also, seems like all these ingredients are good for face. Have you used it on your face?
Hello! Thank you so much for sharing your videos and your experiences. please, do you know what is the expiration date of this product? Is this cream kept under refrigeration?
renato novas expiration date is the oils used. The most recent by date is what you would go by. And no it doesn't have to go in the fridge. Just make sure the lid is on properly, no water gets in it during use and keep it in a cool dry area.
Tamara Kirby thank's!
renato novas no problem. Happy to help 😄
Hey Dean! Thanks for your great tutorial :) I was wondering how these whipped body butters go here in Australia during our ridiculously hot summers? Does it need to be kept in the fridge? I’m about to have a crack at making one (own recipe) so any advice is much appreciated!
Just keep it in a cool place. A bathroom draw should be fine.
Hi Dean I am a big fan of your creations ! This recipe don’t need any preservative?
Thanks so much.
Nope, no preservative for this recipe. If you added water then you would but sorry, I don't anymore then that. :(
Dean Wilson thank you so much for ur reply it helps 🙏🏻
thanks for the video.
could you use hemp seed oil rather than almond oil?
I am not sure, the recipe I followed was just those 3 oils. Do a small batch just say 1 jar and give it a try. Testing is very much the key for these products.
Thank you for sharing
Good morning. Enjoyed yr video .But question where did you go to make your labels
I print my own labels using Photoshop and Epson XP-600 printer.
How long does it keep for? Does it need to live in the fridge? I am assuming that this would melt on a hot day
I would say it keeps for 12 months.
I do suggest keeping this in a draw and out of direct sunlight. We have had some 40+ days here and its stayed solid in the draw.
But if you use this recipe and you start to see it turn more liquid then you may need to place in fridge.
this looks amazing going to trythis where did you get your containers from?
Thanks, I got them from an Australian supplier.
www.packmyproduct.com.au/
thanks so much for the reply def subscribing :)
Nice job. Please where can I get these exact containers? Everything looks great.
They don't sell it anymore, but I got them from here.
www.packmyproduct.com.au
Hi how do you store this. Will it melt back to an oil in warm temperature
Cupboard is the best place. Out of direct sunlight is best. If you find its turning liquid then put in a cooler part of the house, bathroom etc.
Dean Wilson thanks!
I'm allergic to coconut. Odd I know. What could i use to substitute for the coconut oil?
Try this.
livesimply.me/2014/04/16/homemade-moisturizing-lotion-recipe-no-coconut-oil/
How much corn starch/arrowroot powder could u add to cut the greasiness?
I have never tried to add either of those to this recipe. Anyone know?
thanks Dean I've been needing a good recipe. was that fractionated coconut oil or 76 degree? I'm so glad you said the size relative to the fo.
Organic Unrefined Virgin Coconut Oil

Ooh, that looks loverly Dean, bet it does smell good. Would a stick blender work, to froth it up maybe. ? Take care. ❤🙂🐶
Im not sure. To start with it might but once it thickens up I think it would be a battle. It really needs the whisks.
Dean Wilson I'll use a whisk then Dean, thanks for saving me a kitchen mess. LOL. Take care. ❤🙂🐶
Do you need a preservative in this?
Nope...Niether as individual ingredients, nor after being mixed
Great video... Deano do you actually sell these?
These ones were just for friends and family.
Hello ! U r always super. Can u suggest a gud face serum and face pack recipe
I am not sure about a face recipe. anyone?
Dean Wilson okay
Rajkumari Mundra. Google. Or check face book for "The Nadia Effect. " I believe all of her recipes should still be available. Just a warning some of the ingredients she uses are pricy for a first timer, but worth the extra cash.
Tamara Kirby thanku so much. Will surely search
Rajkumari Mundra no problem happy to help 😄
Where you get the jar???
I got mine in Australia from - www.packmyproduct.com.au
Is it necessary to use the Sweet Almond Oil?
I believe you could use Grapeseed oil too.
Dean Wilson thank you so much. Your videos are really good and amazing to watch!
Thank you Manasi :)
Don't you have to add a preservative?
Only if there is an ingredients that creates germs (so I have been told) like water.
Can anyone please confirm this?
Amazing. Do you print your labels on inkjet or laser?
I use an inkjet, Epson XP-600 printer. It is not the best but it works fine for this job. I might get a laser printer soon.
Dean Wilson I highly recommend the Epson EcoTank Range I use the Epson EcoTank range and it’s really good and so cheap to run. I also use a waterproof inkjet label for my body wash, shampoos etc. I also use a PVC waterproof label too.
Thanks, I will check that out.
W Where do you get your labels from?
I use A4 sticky mailing sheets. I make my labels myself.
That's so awesome
Wonderfull
Hai dean.... I have a question body butter may come in contact with water so can I add optiphen to it??
I am sorry, I just don't know. Anyone?
Dean Wilson I mean do I need to add any preservative??
I don't know the answer.
R P no you don't have to since you didn't add water. Its only oils and butter so its fine without preservatives 😊
Becky Silky okay... thankq
mine hardened up the next day, what could be the reason?
I am not sure, what ingredients did you use?
Can I add optiphen? How much?
I have not heard of this until now as I only use Fragrance oils, as I understand optiphen is only used with Essential Oil? Anyone?
Hiya daine :) great video, i bet she will love it :).I needed help knowing how much of each ingredient to put in to make my body butter. Thanku this helps alot :) . I'm adding some other essential oils in tho, and I am struggling to find a video that says how much to put in of each, as I know some essential oils are stronger than others. I'm putting these oils together and some others things, please can you help me, with how much to use of each. I have pretty sensitive skin so I need it mild to medium strength. I'd really appreciate it if you could advice me :) x
Thanks very much. I used 300 grams of oils and I added 3ml of fragrance.
@@DeanWilson thank you x. But I just needed to know how much of these oils to add too my coconut oil and shea butter, I'll be using the same measurents you have x, I want to add, juniper berry oil, and carrot oil, but I don't know if you are ment to use less of the other oil if you are adding more than one essential oil x
And because of the strength x
Im not sure, this was the only recipe that I tried and it worked first time.
Anyone know?
Ah right ,it's oky :). Thank you x
Great video how did you creat your labels?
I used photoshop to make my labels. I might have to do a video because a few others have asked me too.
Yes labeling & finding the right size is my biggest challenge!
How can I find the containers and make the labels around the jar
I found the containers at www.packmyproduct.com.au ( Australian Site ) and the labels I made in Photoshop myself.
How many ounces is the jar and where can I source it?
Each jar is about 3.5274oz.
75 grams - 25% - Sweet Almond Oil
75 grams - 25% - Coconut Oil
150 grams - 50% - Shea Butter
Who makes your labels?
I do, I use photoshop. :)
I had a go at making this and came home the next day from work and it had just gone to liquid..
Really? Weird, is is really hot where you are? you can try and put it in the fridge and keep it out of the heat/ sunlight.
Dean Wilson I did put the lid on straight away, should I have left it off for a while? It would have been in the low to mid 40s.
Dean Does this butter get hard?
Its between toothpaste and shea butter but you can scoop it out of the jar easy.
Would 25% = 25g ?
25% of what?
😍😍😍
I have subscribed and likes your video :) x
Dean, its awesome n simple. Do u make labels by yourself ?
Thank you. Yes, I make all my own labels as most of the time it's a once off.
What program do you use to make your labels?
I use Photoshop to make all my labels.
How long would be the shelf life for this? I just started my own DIY all natural brand..
Thank you in advance.
I am not 100% but it does not have any water in this recipe so it should not go moldy. The body butter was made Jan 2018 which is over 1.5 years ago and I still have a tub here and its fine. I would not expect it to last that long for a women if she is using it all the time. However if you would like to make 100%, you could add a Preservative - however I have never done this myself so your need to Google it for more information.
I'm make this today! How can I create my own labels?
I use photoshop but you can use a free web based program here.

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
New sub here. Great video.
Thanks very much Diana :)
Dean Wilson I will try it one of these days when I have time to try and make it lol.
Hai dean... is it possible to ship whipped body butter...does it stay whipped or it will melt
Should be fine. Just wrap it well. If it gets warm it will start to melt, but if you put it in the fridge for 2 hours it will be solid again. Just keep out of direct sunlight and you will be fine.
Dean Wilson I follow all of your melt and pour they are just so amazing and thankq so much for replying...
Thank you :)
Thanks for sharing
The true test for any body butter is how it looks after a couple of months. Most. if not all, will go completely flat after a month.
Very true :)
I will definitely try this, thanks again
did you test in on yourself? I'm really happy with it you said,....i;m just kidding..looks gooed enough to eat
Yes, I have tested this on myself. I always test my products. :D
Shelf life??
About 1 year.
