When I’m talking about “primary” & “secondary” oils I’m not referring to Essential oils as the “secondary” oil
What I am trying to explain is that within the group of carrier oils I noticed they can be separated into two different sub categories. I like to call those sub categories ”primary” & “secondary”
The primary oils are the cheaper oils like almond oil, apricot kernel oil, grapeseed oil, etc.
The secondary oils are the really expensive ones, the ones that might stain your skin, like carrot seed or sea buckthorn oil. Or oils that might smell and need diluted like Neem oil.
I hope that cleared things up :)
How could i add aloe vera to an oil product? I'm making a body oil and i want to include aloe vera but i'm not sure how, would i need to make my own infuse the oil if so which method would be the best?
That SQUALINE is expensive
Just stumbled across your video looking for an explanation between a "carrier oil" and a "diluent" when adding terpines to food and beverages. (Sometimes it makes more sense when I hear it explained rather than read it)
My reading says--
"Diluent: A substance which is combined with a larger volume of another substance to reduce its strength." _I believe these are the *Secondary Oils* you're referring to (i.e. oils that are too expensive/potent to be used on their own.)
"Carrier: A substance which is combined with a smaller volume of another substance to reduce its strength. The term carrier is derived from its purpose. Another term for carrier is base." I think these are the *Primary Oils* you're referring to. Examples of carrier oils listed were: Coconut oil, jojoba oil, hemp seed oil, etc.
I'm kinda thinking of the general proportions of cough syrup... Primary oil/"Carrier": Inactive ingredients
Secondary oil/"Diluent": Active ingredients
Essential oil/Terpines: Dyes, flavoring, and fragrances
Is this somewhat along the lines of what you're describing?
@@darrenro2 I'm not a professional but from my limited understanding I think that would be considered more of a serum and no longer an "body oil" if that makes sense. Aloe vera isn't an anhydrous product. You would need an emulsifier if you want to combine oil and aloe very together.
I love niacinamide + zinc pca + HA serum. Can you show me how to do it? My skin loves zinc pca alot, and I find everywhere but no one does it ever
If you're looking for a bulk alternative for Vitamin E to save on costs, Tocopheryl Acetate (or Vitamin E Acetate) is a great bulk alternative. Tocopherol is another name for natural Vitamin E and Tocopheryl Acetate is a stabilized version (so not natural unfortunately) that has longer lasting antioxidants. Also using a combo of both is a great way to enhance Vitamin E efficacy.
That's the best way to apply oil to your skin Tara! While its still damp, it penetrates into the skin and locks the moisture in when you apply it on damp skin, you reap the benefits better that way, your applying the oils the best way hon😍😍
YAY! That's good to know. Thanks for sharing this with me.
That must be why I love using it in the shower then. 😄
@@TaraLeee yes ma'am! Alot of ppl don't know about that trick! Alot of celebrities apply baby oil in the shower, that's their inexpensive secret to glowing skin😉
@@mrsperfectco6981 you apply oil to your skin while its damp honey. Use a drying off baby towel to slightly dry your skin, baby towels are gentle on the skin l always recommend them. Don't dry off your skin all the way, just slightly pat your skin to where its still damp, and the. Apply your oil to your skin. This will allow the oil to penetrate into the skin. Then you can use your cream or lotion of you would like.
I refer to my oils as Basic Carrier Oils (Fractionated Coconut, Sunflower, Avocado, Grapeseed etc), then I have my Specialty Oils (Rosehip Oil, Amla Oil, Neem Oil, etc). Thanks for sharing this video.
I have never watched a more clear and straight to the point video...so helpful 🥰
Your videos are a god send. I've been trying to gather information from all over the internet on making bath products/skincare and before I found your channel it was like pulling teeth.
Vitamin E is NOT a preservative
I love your video and how detailed you’re 🌹
Loving grapeseed and apricot along with argan.
Always dropping Jems for us ❗️👏🏽👏🏽

Thank you for organizing your content so and well !!!! I loveeee your videos and this ones no different! Thank you for inspiring 🥰 and all the useful links!
Hi Tara, I love your videos! I would like just to ask you if you would mind to write on the video the specific words you use to name products, oils, tools, etc... It is difficult for me to understand since I am not familiar with the words. Thank you! Your videos are very helpful!
Your video is one of the best explained one. Thank you
Wow,!! You are amazing Tara, love your videos
you are so sweet! Thanks so much for watching :)
Very informative video, thanks!!
Amazing video thank you so much for sharing 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I already saw this video a lot and finally made some body oils and really loved it but wanted to do 2advanced version I was made my body oil for my grandparents they loved it and for myself but now I'm having an idea 💡 do more research start slowly once again and do a body oil for myself and matching to my Soap like a combo ❤️. Thank you sister 🥰😘❤️💯🫂
I like to look at it like #1 carrier oil and #2 beneficial oil... You definitely explain it all very well. Thank you!
Neem oil stinks! Yes :) Wonderful vlog Tara. Love all your stuff. You go girl! I love your videos and recipes and I use them so thank you so much! Oh...at some point can you do a vlog on working with beneficial yet stinky oils like neem? Also, I prefer using unprocessed shea (love it) but it can limit what scents I use with it at times. Maybe tips on working with unprocessed products?
Great for the skin & hair
Thank you for your videos, very simple to understand. Happy to subscribe to your channel
The information you provide is really helpful. I appreciate you so much.
I am loving this because it is really helping, however, some of the videos linked are no longer available
Love your videos! Thank you for taking the time to make them and explain things to us.😊❤ always look forward to watching more videos from you
Thank you for making Us this video!!
thanks so much for watching my video 🥰
I'm new to your channel. Like your contents. It's easy for beginners like me to understand how formulation works and the various ingredients (most of them I've never heard of) into different products.
Tara pls I didn’t get the pronunciations for the eco friendly ingredients to make body butters less sticky.
Also how much will it cost to join your patron account?
Thanks for everything, you’re such an amazing person 💓❤️💓
How do you come up with your percentages? Is it by ounces of container? I’m just trying to figure out how to get the calculations correctly. Thank you for your videos
same! hoping to come across the answer in the comments🙂
when giving product suggestions, can you pls list them on the screen?
Exactly
Thank you so much ❤️.. keep helping us... God bless you ❤️
this has helped me so much🥰
You are my favorite chemistttttt❤
This video made the most sense
Could you put the names of the ingredients that you say on the screen so we know the proper spelling please
you could use the captions
@@vvalor382 It still did not give me the correct names.
You can check the description. The link has everything
Literally click the description. Stop being lazy. This is already content that we should be paying to watch. Stop asking for life to be handed to you.
Great information. Thank You
Can you do a video about certain fragrances that’s good for the skin?
Thank you so much for your info. Your videos are so helpful.
Hola Tara!, me encantan tus videos y tu forma de explicarlos, eres muy proactiva, gracias por enseñarnoslo...tengo una pregunta...puedo usar oleatos de hierbas medicinales en estas fórmulas?
No the spot!! Thanks for the info!✌💜
You are soo good my fave RUclips for education
This was an awesome informative video. Thank you! Can you tell me what suspending agent you can use in oils to keep botanicals from sinking to the bottom?
Hi I am a beginner of making hair and body oils. I was so confused rather it was mandatory to add a preservative or not lol. This was very helpful. Thank you so much for breaking every down just subscribed!!❤️
if your formula uses water it needs a preservative to prevent mold but if theres no water it should be from what i understand
Please make a video on how to make fruit gel ...like face moisturizer gel
Like watermelon gel, orange gel ..etc
Please please
Tara thank you for your videos. How do we calculate 5% of 100% oil? is it 5% of how many ozs there are?
If you're making a 50ml batch size, you calculate as 5% that is 5 divided by 100 the answer multiplied by 50ml
@@maureenalvaro6932 thank you 😊
Hello Tara, I just found you. Did you study with formula Botanica? Because you know so much details only a school can teach.
Very Informative!! Can't get ANY easier than this Tara!!! Great job woman!!
good very informative
Hey Tara thank you for all the valuable tutorials and tips. Can you make a video about how taxes work in a sole proprietorship how do you file separately from the business or do you file as one unit? And also do you have to make quarterly payments etc thank you!
hi Terra love your content what is your take on palm oil ? have you used it before in your fomulations ?
When you mention the chemical ingredients like dimethicone etc, please have the word written on the screen so we know what to search for in online chemical supply shops.
It's been long time we seen you. No recent uploads? Please .... We waiting .... don't forget to notify me! Miss youuu👩
So sorry! I really miss uploading too! I’ve been getting so many orders over on Etsy. I haven’t been able to find time to upload. I’m hoping to have a video up very soon though. So look out for it 😊
@@TaraLeee I appreciate your quick response Tara. Thanks dear. Carryon and go ahead with your work too ... its worth the wait .... till such time take care .... Stay safe ...💟
Hemp seed, primary oil, nailed it :P
I found this video so helpful as a newbie formulator as well as the part 2 you did. Can you tell me the names of the green silicone alternatives? I think it was Natrasil and coco caprylate (is this caprylic acid?) Thank so much for your help!
very informative video! I'm really learning alot from this series. Question, what about actives that are in a base of caprylic capric tryglycerides, can you add that to body oils? because CCT is oil soluble and added to the oil phase in formulas right?
Hello TaraLee I love your videos and your explanation. The thing I’m searching for is a thickener to make the consistency thicker of the face or beard oil and still keep the hair shiny and skin moisturized. What are your suggestions? Thank you ❤️
Hey Tara,
Love all your videos!
I’m new to formulating lotions and was wondering if you can put my confusion at rest.
I’m having a hard time figuring out which of these ingredients belong in the water phase or cool down phase - Squalane, Vitamin E D-Alpha, Panthenol Pro-Vitamin B5 Liquid, and Silk Amino Acids.
Hope to hear back soon.
Ricky
I know vitamin E and pro vit B5 are ingredients that will basically evaporate if you add them in the oil or water phase especially when they are hot. You want to heat your oils and waters, then combine them. While they are cooling you add the vit E/ B5 so they don’t evaporate out of the formula. I forget what temperature you can start to add them, but if you go to your supplier website they should tell you an approximate temperature
I've message d u earlier doing it again thanx a ton fr ur videos I really like the way u explain thing
In the series you say these videos are for beginners. Are the formulas different for advanced body oils?
You Are Amazing!
I would have never thought to use neem oil on my body. I use that in my garden for pest control. You are right about it smelling so bad!! I'm not finding the link you talked about for the article that tells about different oils
Great video💙. Quick question I know that most oil based products don't need a preservatives but I'm looking to have one in my product that im trying to make because i feel like its safey than just not having any, what would be some preservatives that u recommend? Ps I've been doing my research im just getting a little confused by google lol.
I totally understand wanting to use one just in case. Good choice. You can use optiphen or phenonip.
If you buy optiphen make sure it is optiphen not optiphen plus.
Ok thank you very much 💙
Would liquapar oil or a mix of dehydroacetic&benzyle alcohol work as well?
Im asking because thats whats been coming up because the product im trying come out with is basically gel and oil based. Thanks in advance, hope im not a bother.☺
Hi Tara loved your videos...can you plz help me with research work and suggest site where I can get to read about all the natural ectracts,. Herbs etc....
I am trying to formulate a face wash that's for all skin types & eczema
Thank you Tara!!💖
Can you add butters? What percent would you recommend?
Please clarify the spelling of the 3 green alternatives for silicones? The only one I was able to figure was 1) Coco Caprylate.
Can polysorbate 80 be added to this list (for lets say sunflower oil)? If so, at what percentage please?
NatraSil
Coco Caprylate
Neossance Hemisqualane
They all can be purchase on lotioncrafter.com
Polysorbate 80 is a nonionic surfactant emulsifier. It helps solubilize oils into water so they don't separate. But polysorbate 80 won't thicken formulations like other nonionic surfactants like emulsifying wax NF, RitaMulse, Etc.
@@TaraLeee Thanks for your reply. However, unsure how to understand your discussion re polysorbate not thickening as it relates to reducing greasiness. I'm new at this. I only wanted to know if polysorbate 80 can reduce the 'greasiness' of body oils and have an overall good feeling like the others in your list ... Thanks again
Poly Sorbate is added to mix water with oil, so in a a basic “body oil” it is not needed. If it was a bath oil, that goes in the tub while you soak, it would be added because it helps spread and mix into the water it’s sitting in with you. Not just sit on top of the tub...makes sense?
Love your channel 😇💛
Is it possible to make a formulating video on tanning oils / lotion?
Tara! Thank you for the info it's much appreciate. Could you please list the "natural silicon alternatives", please and thank you...
NatraSil
Coco Caprylate
Neossance Hemisqualane
They all can be purchase on lotioncrafter.com
@@TaraLeee You're soooooooooooooooo DOPE, thank you and much continued success to you Tara... :)
Awwh you are so sweet. Thank you Nicole💗
@@TaraLeee Would this ingredients help with keeping body scrubs from clumping?
Tara, I was wondering if Macadamia Nut Oil or Pumpkin Seed Oil would be suitable for the primary oil in a massage oil? I want to use them as body oil and in emulsified sugar scrub but am unsure if they'd be suitable.
What would be better or more fragrant to use..essential oils or fragrances?
Hello ...where can I buy the Natrasil, the IPM, capri Tryglcerides and the blueberry seed oil
What do you think about avocado oil being a primary oil? Grapeseed, or apricot?
You mentioned that you find sunflower oil 'fast absorbing'. Is your skin dry?
Sunflower oil is a very lightweight oil like grapeseed oil, unlike heavy oils, they absorb into the skin faster, which means it isn't a greasy, heavy oil! Its very lightweight and absorbs into the skin quick! You won't be looking a greasy mess😂😂
yes, I have very dry skin unfortunately! How does sunflower oil feel on your skin?
@@TaraLeee On my skin, which is moderately dry, the sunflower oil is not fast absorbing. At the same time, it is not in the least heavy or overly long lasting either.
@@KYESHAKNOWSSKIN How would someone with oily skin experience sunflower oil? Grapeseed oil is a headache because it goes off so quickly in my hot, humid climate that I want to use sunflower but feel nervous about doing a direct substitution.
@@Skylightatdusk I have superrrrr oily skin! And my skin likes sunflower oil! It penetrates into the skin quickly and the best way to apply any oil is on damp skin not dry skin, so the oil can penetrate into your skin and you won't sweat it out. When you apply oil to dry skin your just applying it on the epidermis layer of your skin which is the outer layer. But when you apply the oil on damp skin it penetrates into the dermis layer which is under the epidermis layer. Causing you to feel more moisturized, because the oil has penetrated into your pores, causing your skin to reap the benefits of the oil, insteqd of the oil just sitting on top of the skin! This is why celebrities have glowing skin they apply baby oil on their skin while damp ! 💖 You just have to apply the oil correctly and you shouldn't have that problem with it sweating off hon! It's easy for it it sweat off when its just sitting on top of your skin when the oil hasn't penetrated into your skin yet! But I would definitely say try sunflower oil I think you will love it! Hope this helps you a bunches!💖
Hi, would you suggest using a silicone in a scalp and hair oil? And if you use a preservative would that increase shelf life even though an ingredient already has a shelf life , for example if something had a shelf life of 6months would using a preservative increase the shelf life?
Thank you
Please Is fractionated coconut same as cococaprylate and should the both be present in a formula? Thank
They are different
Thank You.
Thank you!
Where do you buy your coco-caprylate? I’ve been trying to find it in the US
hi, you are amazing. Can you please guide me if phenonip preservative has an expiry date of 2 months to use this preservative in a product then after using within this 2 months before expiry what is our product shelf life eg: Making clay mask water-based product.
Love this video ❤️❤️
I've been trying to search for these bottles containers and it has proven futile. Do you mind sharing where you got these bottles?
Hi tara
Can you pls guide me with the names of the natural preservatives. I couldn't quite get it
Hi Tara, I’ve got some IPM in powder. How do I add them into my formulating as I’ve seen that most people uses the liquid ones. Thank you!
Do you have a suggested formula for using 3 oils? Primary, secondary, and 3rd oil.
Please how do I differentiate which oil is good for caramel body, dark body and fair body?
Great information. I don't know if you know who does your closed captions, but they need to be fired. If your hearing inpared, the information is spelled so wrong, there is no way, they are finding the supplies easily. Normally, I don't care, but in these types of videos, that sort of information is vital.
Hello I make body oil with glitter or pigment powder, whay preservative should I use so it doesn't separate the glitter or pigment
What is something I can use to get my oils to stop separating ? I used a couple that were heavier than the others. I would like an all natural one if there is one. Please :)
