    Hi, I made 200g of this cream today, instead of Cocoa Butter I used Kokum Butter, turned out very creamy and I really like it and my 10yr old grandson likes it too and wants me to give some to his mom, thanks for your videos, blogs and encyclopedia they have taught me a lot

  • @stanleyfox4201

    I made this cream today and it has the most amazing texture. I scaled it up to make approx 3 cups. I used oat infused water, apricot oil, 1/5 coconut oil, 4/5 cocoa butter and btsm 50 (half the amount) and the other ingredients were more or less the same. Then I added some goat milk powder and oat silk. Essential oils were: may chang, lemon verbena, patchouli, sandalwood and benzoin. Wonderful cream lotion. Thank you so much.

      @@nathaliariv9838 i use half as much BTMS 50 as the recipe is asking for in terms of emulsifier and then the same amount of cetearyl alcohol as this recipe required. And it turned out very nicely. Like pavlova just before you bake it. A bit bouncy.

After mixing it today texture came out so wonderful! I did not have lavender oil, but instead used toasted praline scent and now it smells so comforting and gives it like a "milky" scent.

I used hemp seed oil and grape seed oil as I didn’t have any oat oil and used peppermint EO instead of lavender - it smells like mint chocolate ice cream! Yum It was my first time using Ecomulse. I appreciate the lovely, non soapy texture and feel. Thanks for all the great recipes. You are awesome 🤩

PS the dream cream used to include calamine earlier before they moved to oat. Do you think we can replace the colloidal oats to calamine powder / lotion to try to get that old lush formulation (that one was so much more effective)

      you'd think when doubling recipes or even cutting them in half, they'd turn out the same. But I've found this to be difficult in that many times it just doesn't work or look quite the same. I'm thinking in terms of cooking or even baking cupcakes, if you want 24 as opposed to 12 that the recipe would turn out the same. %99.9 it doesn't. most of the time it looks & feels completely different. but as Maries' stated wait a few days to see if the texture changes :)

      Hi Mark! The idea of "comedogenic" really is nowhere near as simple as religiously avoiding every ingredient that gets a "bad" rating; I feel pretty confident saying people with acne-prone skin do not need to worry about 7% cocoa butter in a formulation. Lab Muffin made a great video about it titled "Why Comedogenicity Ratings Are Kinda BS " (ruclips.net/video/-wz__FPq5kE/видео.html), and the title really says it all :) Happy making!

      It’s 1% emulsifier for 8% fats. It always has to be the same unit of measurement

      @@stancexpunks tks for advising. What confused me is, how to calculate the amount of fat in 1 formula? This one for example, shall I just calculate the qty of cetearyl acholol, or need to calculate coco butter and oat oil part as well( coz they’re component by different fats)?

    Think your version is actually 'deluxe' with the oat oil swap-out, as Lush would be saving money by using olive oil - which is a lot cheaper. I think the £20 price tag on a standard size pot of DC is pretty high. Lush's reputation has declined a lot in the UK in recent years, with them attracting same shocking mail order reviews. I don't think they care about their customers anymore. But, as you've demonstrated, we can make our own!

    Is oat oil the same as oat infused olive oil?

    • @HumblebeeAndMe
      @HumblebeeAndMe  Год назад +1

      No; oat oil is made from oats, just like olive oil is made from olives :) Learn more about it in the free Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/)!

    If we plan on using this every day and using it up within like 3-6 months do we really need preservatives?

    • @HumblebeeAndMe
      @HumblebeeAndMe  Месяц назад

      Yes, you definitely do. If you were using it in 3-6 days you *might* be able to get away without a preservative, but this will absolutely turn into a disgusting mouldy mess well before the 3 month mark, and would probably be talking back by the 6 month mark 😬😅

    How long does it last without adding Germall Plus preservative

    • @HumblebeeAndMe
      @HumblebeeAndMe  Год назад +1

      Maybe three to five days? Think about leaving something like a homemade hollandaise sauce at room temperature and how long that would last.

    Hi!! ❤❤ I noticed you've been formulating a lot with Ritamulse, question, do you prefer it over Glyceryl Stearate PEG 100 Stearate? I'm dying to know! 😊

    Speaking of essential oils, which ones do you find that you tend to keep in your pantry now that you are this far in your level of formulating? How often do you opt out of formulating with essential oils to choose a fragrance oil, hydrosol, or no scent instead?
    A big gripe that I've had with DIY Formulation on the internet is how heavy it leans on essential oils. The herbalists of my pre-formulating interests taught me that EOs are basically under-regulated *refined drugs* that aren't used very functionally in commercial skincare, or worse are used with a heavy hand quite dangerously in the home setting, & it's a pattern consistent with most online content. I've trained my brain to completely skip over the EOs when I break down a formula or read ingredients lists (in my mind they're nothing more than theme embellishments, basically useless but pretty garnish that nobody eats), which is unfortunate since EOs can actually be quite functional. Online formulations are usually written like the authors never heard of IFRA, and indeed neither did I before I found your blog
    I hope to hear more about your thoughts on the subject of what you find most helpful for your style of DIYing
