You can always use a piping bag and tip to fill the lotion jars, it's cheaper than the machine
Just came here to say the same thing, you don't even need a tip, just fill a large piping bag, snip off the tip and pipe the lotion into the jars
You guys are 1000% smarter than me ❤. Thank you - I will be doing this next time!!
I agree. I use a piping bag.
I was thinking the exact same thing!!
Love your vids. I use a piping bag, makes it so easy.
For thick lotions and body butters I use a small cookie batter scoop 😊
Watching you inspires me to get back at it. Since we moved I haven’t really wanted to make much of anything. So thanks for making me feel like doing it again. Your products are all so beautiful.
You can do it! And thank you! ☺️
I’m a soap maker for a year. You really inspire me Ms. Jerika. Thank you
Congratulations! on your re-launch. I hope you and Cale have so much to be thankful for on this American Thanksgiving Day.
Many Blessings!
Thank you! You too!
Whohoo!!! You’re one of my favorite soapers to watch on CZcams! So happy for your success! Thank you for sharing your journey. 🎉🥳
Wow, thank you! 🙏🏼 ❤️
Hi Jerika! I've been watching your videos for quite some time, and I have to say I am very happy for you. Enjoy your success!
So excited for your re-launch!!!
Me toooo!! ❤
So happy for you Jerika. Your products are amazing. Im very happy to see you and Cale thriving in your new home.
Sending love from Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦
Aw ! Sending love from Washington ❤❤❤❤
@@JerikaZimmerman
Sorry jerika we refuse to hand you fully to the USA. 🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤦🏾♀️
In my head you're still here in Ontario, Canada even after you moved to the Alberta area. Lol
I started watching from the start but never commented. But I am always watching.
Congrats on your relaunch in the USA.
Have a blessed and happy thanksgiving you, cale and family.
Have a blessed long weekend
From Georgetown, Ontario 🇨🇦
Haven't seen your videos in awhile no thanks to the YT algorithm, so when it popped up I immediately watched. So glad to see you're growing and always making improvements in your business.
Congratulations on your relaunch! I’m so excited for you!!!
Thank you so much!!☺️
Nice job guys. Congrats on a successful launch from the states! Happy Thanksgiving. 🦃
Happy holidays! ☺️
So pleased for you that the launch went so well. Love how you are evolving your business; keep the video's coming please. Best wishes from the UK x
Oh, they’re coming! Thanks for watching, I appreciate you!
To fill jars, I put it into a plastic gallon bag and snip off one of the bottom corners. I can also use the bag again and store the left over lotion in it until I need it again. I've tried the way you did it this day, but I found it too messy for me. When I have accomplished the recipe and jarred it, I don't want a large clean up. I love your videos and you give me inspiration to keep going!
That's a great idea! ❤️❤️❤️
Yes, this is the best way to go!
Congrats on a great relaunch!
I haven't been able to justify getting a lotion pump thing yet either. But I use a ziploc bag when doing my lotions because I only make a few at a time. It works wonders! I do the same thing with my body butters. Acts as a piping bag.
I concur - you def need piping bags for filing your jars with lotion . Looks great ❤ Best of luck on your launch 🎉
Wow! I’m amazed with all your orders, congratulations. I’ll be shipping my first order out soon, and picked up a few details in packing from you.
Congrats on your first order!!! 🎉
I really like your content and videos! You are awesome, Jerika!!!!! Thank you😀
Thank you so much! I appreciate you!
I so excited for you!
Thank you!!!
❤❤❤ I have never used xanthan gum in a bubble whip base. What does it bring to the formulation? I have also been looking at fillers but decided to get a homogenizer first. I love it. No more deflated cream settling due to excess air during processing. Amazon has some more affordable options if you are thinking about one too. ❤❤❤ 😊
Which homogenizer did you choose?
Thanks for sharing. Learning a lot.....
I use a zip lock bag with a corner cut off to get my creams in the pots. No washing up, bonus
Omg I love your cat coffee hoodie 🤣😍
Those labels are so cute
Yes Yes Yes……Great launch day here in the states…..I love the name “High Tide”……go with your instincts…..
Thank you!!❤
Be Humble. all the best.
Always! Thank you!
So happy your launch was a success! Love the new branding! Can you make an in-depth video on how you package your orders? :)
Absolutely!!
@@JerikaZimmerman Thanks! Can’t wait to see it 😊
Love your sweatshirt 😊
Hey, your new stanley cup matches you hand mixer! Now you're going to have to make everything light teal to match! :)
Ya!! I love a matching moment for sure!
Hello Jerika I use a dispenser funnel I ordered from Walmart very cheap and is amazing for lotion, oils and butters. Easy to clean and affordable
Thanks for the tip! I gotta look into this!
Use should use a frosting piping bag for the lotion until you reach the level you want until you're ready for a filling machine.
Jerika! Girl! I have that same shirt in my cart at amazon! It's black, though. Nice to know that we have that in common, too. ;-)
Ohhhh ya! ❤
You can also use a batter dispenser funnel. This is great for lotions, body wash and oils
Such a great suggestion, thank you!
@@JerikaZimmerman your welcome! Thank you for the amazing videos ❤️
Get the lotion filling machine, it makes me make larger batches and saves time.
Thank you for sharing ❤. Which emulsifier did you use?
The straw is upside down
Awesome, I love the fact that you let the lotion stay over night before jarring. Could you make a hand pump lotion.
Hmmm I’ll see what I can do!
Yikes! The amount of equipment one can buy can be unending - and extremely expensive! Being a “Maker” can put a person into serious debt! You’re fortunate Jerika that you have many orders! I’m taking it slow and low cost and tell myself NO to most of the fancy equipment.
I’m that way too, for real. It takes a lot for me to buy equipment. I’d have to reeeeeAaalllly need it for me to take the plunge.
@@JerikaZimmerman For the amount of volume you make, it’s logical to buy special equipment. 👍🏼
Hi Jerrika. Nice to see u and more videos for christmas pl. Sugar scrub jars 4oz. Is it right? Which size for labels? All are soo beautiful.
The scrubs are actually 10 oz. My labels are 3” x 2.5”
I am just about to set up my shopify account and website. I am so confused on how shipping works !! ahhh! lol how you get your orders in and that process is! do you have any videos on that? lol i know theirs a lot of videos on how that process works but you just busted these orders out and im like DAMN girl! i need to ask her! lol
Where are you located I have a dispenser my daughter used a few times and deciding she didn’t want to anymore. I’ve been trying to find a way to sell it at a good price it’s taking up room in my house lol
Why don't you use the Baker's icing bag? Or the baker syringe to put the cream in the jars? That may be faster than you are doing it..just a thought..are you from Toronto?
Love the launch update!! What program do you use with your munbyn printer?
None! Just ctrl P with the computer and pick the Munbyn as my printer. The key is making the thing you want to print the same size as the label and then picking the right size of label when printing.
@@JerikaZimmerman oh ok, thank you for the info!!
use a piping bag to fill the jars
Where do you order your jars from? The prices are INSANE!
Hello! Could you do a video on how you determine etsy shipping settings? I saw you have some from a few years ago, but would love an updated one now that you are getting started in the USA. I find most of the current videos on CZcams are for shirts so they don't include the weight of padding or free samples. This part of Etsy makes me feel bamboozled.
Okay!❤
What brand labels do you use?
Your link here on CZcams to your shop isn't working. I was able to google it
Thank you! I’ll take a look and fix that!
Hi, I saw someone use a professional pancake dispenser for wax. Could this be used for your product low cost maybe just a thought. Kathy from Cali.😎
Why not use a piping bag to fill lotion jars?
Yup… this is genuis - thank you!
why dont you put the lotion in a piping bag and fill the jars a lot less sloppy and it would prob save you alot of time..they have disposable ones that you can cut the tip when bag is filled..
Yeah! I’ll for sure try that! Thank you! ❤
❤❤🎉🎉
😊😊😊
Do you have any e books or classes you do ?
Hopefully you have a box big enough for my order 😂 😁
😂❤ we’ll make it work and thank you so much!!!!
@@JerikaZimmerman oh I feel so relieved now. 🤣 You're welcome. Didn't get everything I wanted, have to wait for restock which will hopefully be a smaller box. 😁💞
0nly reason why I don't order is because I'm in Australia you are to far away. Postage for me would be so high
I see you fixed the one way up top but the one that has the word 'website' and is highlighted 'Buy my soaps: website' that is about halfway down says '404 page not found'. Sorry for being a nag but I'm really good at it! 😁
No, not a nag. An actual angel - THANK YOU❤❤❤
Hi Jerika! How does it works finaly in the USA? Do you need a green card? Thank you.
I applied for a visa that lets me work here. It’s specifically for those waiting for a green card.
Ok great!! It allows you to work for an illimited period or you have to apply in a few years?
The link to your website says ''404 page not found'.
Noooo! Oh no, I need to fix that.
Can you pipe the lotion?
Yes, I’ll try that!
Why don't you just put it in a piping bag
I agree. Doing a slab of soap seems extremely intimidating. But you can do it ! I can’t wait to watch 🫶🏼😊
Thank you for the encouragement!!!❤
Couldn’t you pipe the lotion? That has to be faster 😬🫣
