Lovely consistency. This formulation is technically a cream lotion as it contains water. Body butters are anhydrous formulations. This means they contain no water and are comprised entirely of oils and butters. A preservative is usually not needed in body butters unless there is a chance that water might be introduced into the product. For example, using wet hands to apply the product or using it in the shower. The use of a antioxidant such as Vitamin E is highly recommended when making body butters as it will help to prolong the shelf life of the product. Vitamin E helps to prevent rancidity of. the oils and butters. Also, most if not all, preservatives have what is called a Flashpoint. This means they are only effective when used at the manufacturer's recommended temperature and below. If added above the recommended temperature they will 'burn off' and become ineffective. Again, the consistency of your finish product was amazing. As formulaters who are no longer novices, we often overlook the fact that people look to us for knowledge. A majority of these videos become tutorials whether or not they are meant to be.
Wonderful feedback, thank you so much! I love the idea of adding the Vitamin E. I will definitely try that. We market our "barrier cream consistency lotion" as a body butter to our customers because of the texture and because of the high content of wonderful butters. We steer away from the anhydrous version in the summer months here in southern California, because it's just too hot, and the butters will melt. An emulsified version is the perfect alternative. We always add the preservative at a temperature that will not burn off of course, because we want our products to fresh as long as possible.
Even with an anhydrous product it's still a wise choice to use a presevatives so incase a client keeps their product in the shower or bathroom and accidentally gets water in the butter as it doesn't take much for bacteria to grow! Not a chance I would want to take!
Thanks @Kim Rawls for your info, as I was just thinking the same thing about butters vs. lotion with water content. Education is key. Video was great, loved the breakdown of measurements
A lot of the big name bath and body stores market this similar recipe as a body butter. Most people prefer the word body butter over cream. This is a wonderful recipe thanks for sharing.
I used this recipe as a starting ground and made several changes for my climate in Michigan. Today I took samples to several people who test and review new products for me. And they LOVED it. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. It has been a fantastic starting point for my recipe. Again, Thank you 😘
Coming in handy for the fall and winter months for michiganders ...I at times miss the michigan fall weather and leave color changes! What scents if any did you end up using? Who did you use as your supplier?
I would like to thank you so much for your presentation, your patience in explaining, and for kindly sharing this recipe. You are a true professional. I tried your recipe and it was amazing. I had to switch out the Shea butter for Mango because it was all I had on hand at the time but it still came out beautiful. If I ever make it to the West Coast, I'm coming straight to you store. Great Job!
I really sat here and read through every single comment and responses… Video saved… Your content and some of the comments were very informative. Gave me lots to research, thanks for posting.
This is really one of the best I have ever seen on You Tube, nicely spoken, nicely explained, beautiful lady, you are such a wonderful and knowledgeable person. My blessings to you from my heart. Keep up the good work.
Hallelujah!! You've just eased my mind about adding water. I was not going to do it, even though there is a lot if issues with melting etc. No one has explained this type of recipe as clearly and simply, so I can understand, as you have. I am going to embrace water, even aloe juice now. Can't thank you enough. Annnnd, can't wait to try it!
The 1st batch, I put it in the freezer, then whipped it. It never flufed up, but it was amaaaaaaaazing! The 2nd batch, I didn't put in the freezer, and it whiped and flufed up. It doubled in size. Exactly what I really wanted. And just as amazing, silky, non greasy... perfection! I originally thought I couldn't reach this stage with water as an ingredient. But I am in Heaven!! I made 9 large jars to give as gifts to some of my ladies at my wedding. You're the best!! Thank you!
Thank your for sharing... I was struggling when my butters would melt when shipping. Im excited to try your sister and my God all i can say is THANK YOU FOR SHARING...
Wow. I just tried your recipe but I changed coconut oil to hempseed due to I live in Thailand and it’s hot and humid so I guess a bit of light oil might be better for my situation. I just want to say how much I love love loveeee your emulsifying body butter. It’s super lovely and I don’t have to freak out it would humiliating me by melting during transport ever again. Thank you for sharing!!❤️❤️❤️
I see this is from last year but I had to Thank you so much for sharing this amazing recipe. I just found your channel and had to go make this. It’s so awesome and you explained how to make it so easily. Can’t wait to try out more of your creations.
I would be interested if you could show how to dissolve Glycine powder into the distilled water and add Shea butter and Coconut oil into a cream application. I would also be curious if you could add Castor oil into that. Thanks.
I am so glad I came across your channel I. was on watching you make a circuit label and clicked on this video and noticed your product in the background that I cannot find the right size for to make labels. So helpful thanks for sharing. The jar looks like body butter in but it's not a shape you see used that much in this field from what I can tell.
I have tried to make several butters and the problem is hydration and absorption. Special absorption. It stays on the skin. I can really feel the oil when I shower and it makes flakes when I rub harder. There are a lot of videos with water and beeswax. As if that beeswax makes absorption difficult. Something is wrong with this buter, and mass recordings are being taken. I used water and beeswax.
@@TyarsEssentials I love those cabinets where did you get those? Kind of country style cabinets! Great video! Heard arrow root powder works if you don't use water
Hello beautiful I am so happy to found you Chanel ♥️♥️ what is the shelf life of this butter and what kind of preservative do you use ? Thank you so much for sharing ♥️
Thank you so much! Yes of course you can add vitamin E oil. That would be really nice addition to this recipe. The usage rate for vitamin E oil should be available from your preferred supplier.
Hello, I love your video and end result. I have emulsifying wax that’s a combination of Cetearyl Alcohol and Polysorbate 60. Do I still need the Separate cetyl alcohol to mix with my emulsion wax? Thank you!
Thank you! Not at all. Just replace it with additional eWax. I just like the feel of it with a little additional Cetyl alcohol. Smooths out the wax a bit.
I would suggest checking out this little cheat sheet, and adjusting the percentage of hard butters and oils. cheatography.com/emmajane/cheat-sheets/ingredient-ratios-for-lotion-making/
can any one advice me . I've tried to make this cream but other recipe and after it cooled down It became too hard and when I take from it it does not spread and melts like water . what did I do wrong ?
I used to make mine like this but it ALWAYS turned out so grainy!!! I don’t know what I did wrong. I just do the normal whipped now, even though here in Queensland, Australia, it gets really hot and humid. I just got so sick of wasting so much ingredients.
Hi! Good question. I myself have not heard that glycerin is a preservative. So, I’m not sure about that. But, I add a paraben free preservative to all of my products that have water content for safety.
Pls help i tried making it but mine got spoilt after 1 week. It started growing molds and i actually sterilized everything i used properly i used German plus preservatives 😢
Hey dear, I don't know if you already found your answer but I am going to respond to your question anyway. One way is to go to Uni, take chemistry and specialize in formulation chemistry. Another one is to take some courses (some of them with a Diploma) in this field. One great school is "The institute personal care science", you can find them here on youtube and they have different type of courses. Be aware that, when you chose the second option, the diploma you receive, is not being recognised all over the world. So you have to ask the school, where the diploma you are going to study for, is being recognised. I am not sponsored nor am I am an affiliate of the institute of personal care science.

Please answer...can i whip body butter with hand blender i dont have a beater...last time i did that my consistency got liquid n i panicked so i added more beeswax to" harden" it.just started making body butters now.
@Tyars Essentials Hello gorgeous, is the preservative used broad spectrum? In your previous reply to a comment about adding vitamin E, you've mentioned you'll try it. Have you? If so, when you added vitamin E, what was the percentage? Also can I use essential oils and place of the fragrance? If so, may you please provide the percentages Please and thank you 😊
Love the mini measuring cups, where are they from? Thanks for sharing the formula & it looks great.. I call mine a “body butter cream” and this year is 1st year I made it.. my body butters did not sell as well and I recreated a newer product for the customers. Not cold here... don’t need a thick coating in winter.
is the cetyl alcahol really needed for this batch? i cannot seem to find it any place i have looked. i found optiphen and the emulsion wax the natural type. thanks i make a medicated oil and wanted to use this for my arthritis pain. thank you so much. Sam
@@TyarsEssentials unless I missed it what preservative did you end up using? I truly believe that whether you use a water or not it's imperative that you use a preservative .... the last thing you want to have happen is for someone to have bought our products and something happen with their skin and or with the product!
I am not totally sure about that one, I have never used anything else. You can use mica, but I find it a bit difficult to mix in. I typically use liquid dyes to color my body butters.

I have a question? Why do you add a preservative if you are adding a 100% vegetable glycerin, which is a stabilizer and preservative in itself?
Hi! Good question. I myself have not heard that glycerin is a preservative. So, I’m not sure about that. But, I add a paraben free preservative to all of my products that have water content for safety.
Theres more water than glycerine so it would mold
So this won’t melt at all?

Make sure you’re using a cosmetic grade preservative. I use Optiphen.

Oh, you can just use more water.
thank you so much my dear

You can use mica, but liquid dye is easier to incorporate.
Is there anything I can add to make the body butter have a more gliding feel. When I rub it in after a while … there’s friction.
You could add cyclomethicone as part of the water content.

My pleasure! It’s by Milliards found on Amazon.
please what oil can i replace avocado with? Avocado oil is pretty expensive here. i love your recipe. thanx
You can use Olive oil as they are both "similar" in terms of consistency.
There are multiple oils that can be used. Its just based off your personal preference. Search natural oils on google
