Love this recipe! So pretty and easy! Thank you Corey!
Absolutely lovely. Thank you for sharing every step 👏🏼
you are welcome!
Best video I’ve seen! Thank you so much!
good idea with packaging ......loved the recipe as well......
I like the coffee filter method the best, I have never made lotion bars before but will be trying it this weekend.
MARY MCDONALD thank you, keep me posted on how they turn out!
Very informative. Love the lotion bars.
Nicely done, I need to try some of these lotion bars.
Thank you for sharing. Love your videos.
i love you for scraping the sides of the cup after you put in the oil lol. a lot of people don't and they just set the cup to the side right away. it drives me nuts knowing that there's product being wasted!! lol thanks for sharing :)
potato c: 🤣🤣
I was thinking the same thing lol I believe that’s the OCD in us lol
Thank you I've learned so much from you
Pretty lotion bar. Nice packaging.
Just for yourself & everyone else, the only Soy Wax That can be used in Skincare is Ecosoya Q210 it’s Been Dermatology Tested Safe for All Skin Types. I use both in mine. Yours sound very nourishing. Thank You for sharing 😊 I personally prefer the double boiler method
Beautiful!!!! Do you use equal parts ingredients? Thank you for sharing. Also do the Rose petals turn brown?
Great video! What’s the shelf life after you create and package them?
Hello, thank you so much for sharing this lovely video. I had a great success last week, but I am in the hot climate of India and I think my oil had to be adjusted as it was very soft and sticky so I think I should just melt the others and increase the BVX, I’m sure there are better ways and colorful for you to do the packing. Have you considered small boxes, especially for shipping where they can store the lotion bar and it does not lose its fragrance. I have also seen lotion bars wrapped up in cotton muslin & put in a bamboo/ wooden box. I guess costing will go up with the weight and the dispatch options. Wishing you all the very best. Stay blessed. I have learned a lot from your video.
Beautiful, perfect.
Love your videos!
great idea to pack. thanks
I just love your channel!!!
Thank you!
I just love your videos.♥
Joyride thank you!
I love your lotion bars and beautiful packaging!😍 Thank you so much for sharing!
Bellessentials Handmade you are welcome! Thank you so much for watching ❤️
Is it okay to use all Shea butter in place of Cocoa butter, or should I always use both types of butters together? Also, does baby oil work well for the oil?
Can I wrap soap with the deli a paper? Will the soap still draw moisture if it’s not wrapped in shrink wrap?
thank you for the video, what is the shelf life for you bars and why no preservatives?
Thank you for this video, is the carrot powder oil soluble? otherwise how can it penetrate into the skin…? dont you need tocopherol as an antioxidant? 😊
Looks and sounds good enough to eat.
Using the stick blender also incorporates air into the mixture
Awesome 👏🏾
Hi, they look really great. Just wondering what size wave filter papers you use... Cheers
Hi there, I use the large filters made for standard coffee pots
Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing
Hi thanks for this video. Very informative. I wonder if arrowroot powder would cut down on the greasy feel.... have you experimented with that if so how was it?
If would even a bit or cornastarch....just mix it in while its still hot and stir to rid clumps 👍
Really thought you would show how it dissolves on your skin contact cause I never heard of them.
I put my lotion bars in little rectangular containers that I got from Dollar Tree 10 of them for a dollar in a quarter they way out to be about 2 oz and then I use a label maker to print up my labels and put them on the base of the container that way if they get the lids mixed up it doesn't make any difference they know what's in the container a lot less trouble a lot needer
Does the beeswax help so it doesn't melt when you ship items?
Nice tips. I made origami boxes to put my lotions. And use 2 different colors. Thanks for the idea
Natalia Ballestero Barquero thank you! Origami boxes sound amazing!!
Niiiiice, love your packaging. Lotion bars all that different from bath melts??
1 Blended Family thank you! They are very similar to bath melts but bath melts shouldn’t contain beeswax they need to be at a lower melt point
Thank you. Very informative. Can you please let me know where you purchased you 2.5 cutter. I purchased one from Amazon and it dis not make a clean cut.
I purchased them at Michaels craft store
You can sharpen the cutter by cutting tin foil with it a few times
Great lotion bars and packaging. What is your suggestion for storing it after purchase especially if the individual wants to carry in their purse?
Thank you! I put mine on pretty soap dishes and display them in my bathroom. You could slice a little piece off to carry with you. But, I am not sure how I would wrap it.
You could cut a piece off and put in one of the 2 oz plastic containers found in Dollar Tree or Family Dollar. That is what I put my lotion bars in and works great
Beautifuly done...can I know the shelf life?
Which brand punch is your 2.5"?
Thann you for sharing
Hi will you share the recipe please. I like to try it out
Where do u get such a big bottle of sweet almond oil from? By the way great video
Lacreshea Cox thanks so much!! You can get those giant bottles at Brambleberry or nature’s garden. They are seven pounds. Although I buy it now in 5 gallon buckets and just refill the jugs 😆
Could u shrinkwrap these in plastic so customers could see them? Would it affect them?
Hi. I enjoyed watching your vids. Could you also mention the quantitis and measurements of these ingredients ? Thanks.
You have to purchase the recipes from her patron.
Thanks for showing us how to make these. Cute packaging too. Did you formulate these yourself? How did you learn how to do this? Are there any books you would recommend?
Sylvia Beyer thank you! This is my recipe.
I Love this I'm a massage therapist and I would love to incorporate this into my massage thank you for the information
you are welcome!
Your clients will love it and will ask you more😊
Don’t you need to put the grams on the label and your address or website? Could you possibly do a video about the Canada labelling guide for soap. I’ve been looking into it and it’s confusing. Thanks for the great videos, you’re so informative.
I wonder if the rose petals keep their color after while. Thank you for the beautiful video.
Hud Nad yes they do and they look wonderful
How do ypu calculate the wax and oil?
Hi can you use carrot extract
Thanks
can i use palm wax to exchange the bees wax for making soap?
Candelila wax is more organic and sustainably sourced 👍
Nice!!!😁👍🌸🌸🌸🌸
Im moving to CA so I can be your neighbor. ..😂❤
On her packaging if she would have aligned the twine up directly over the tape it would have held the tape more securely but as it is the tape is peeling off of the coffee filter it will be flapping in the breeze
These are really cute Corey! You should do great on your new venture as you are a natural teacher and people will learn a lot from you!
Terry snyder thank you!
How do these hold up in the hot weather?
Tessie Dobey pretty good they have a high melt point but Extreme heat is an issue, also, if they sit in the sun like at a craft fair they can get soft
What about measurement you don’t mention here in your vedeo hope you you shared us thank you how many grams or oz
Whats cary powder???
Carrot powder
What’s the powder you added to oils pls?
She said it was carrot seed powder I believe?
I love the rose petals I formulated mine in the same molds about 2 yrs. ago using coffee beans. They’re a big hit. I’m going to try the rose to mix it up a bit. Some of the beans float but most will stay at the bottom. Great idea with keeping the petals down by getting them moist first.
Your packaging is super cute too
Thank you! Coffee beans sound awesome!
I was really curious to see how these work on the skin! I have very dry skin and would have loved to see how they work.
Modern&Motherly you just rub it on your skin and it looks like you have applied lotion or light butter. You can massage it further into your skin.
This is an informative video but for us beginners it would be helpful to tell people what the amounts of each item are so that we can re-create the recipe. Thanks
You can go to her my patreon page and you can buy exact recipes for a small fee of 5.00.Thats pretty good.Some people sell their recipes up to 50.00.Shes very reasonable, obviously looking at helping everyone whoms on a budget.
Where do you purchase your sweet almond oil??
It just depends, mostly I order it in 35 gallon buckets from brambleberry
Sunshine Soap and Candle Company Ok, awesome thank you so much!
what can you use instead of beeswax? as a vegan option?
Hi there, you can use candelilla wax or skin safe soy wax. candelilla wax is harder than beeswax and soy wax is softer than beeswax, so you will need to play around with percentages.
Im allergic to all nuts and by products of nuts. Is there a recipe for lotion without them?
Donelle Swinney yes! You can sub out the sweet almond oil for any liquid oil like avocado oil, rice bran oil or jojoba.
❤
Im making shower bar out of bees wax shea and coca butter but any tips on how to avoid it going bad as i have reas about that !!
Well, I have never made those, but my initial thought is that you need a preservative because of the introduction to water.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany like vegtable glycerin?
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany can you please suggest a preservative! Thank you ! 🤗
Neonlights yes, I would use a preservative best suited for lotions. I like optiphen in my lotion based products because it is paraben free. There are a few different optiohens on the market, make sure you read the recommended use before you purchase it so your getting the right one. I use glycerine for added moisture and pliability, but it’s not a preservative
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany i was reading you dont need a preservitave in cold proccess things since mine will be stored in the fridge after use !! Thank you so much for your time and replying !!
how if adding aloe vera
How do you ship? Can you explain that process as well to avoid melting?
Hi, yes, I only ship these and products like these on Mondays and Wednesdays. I use priority 2 day shipping so they don't sit too long in warehouses where they can overheat. I never do ground shipping with these either because it takes too long and the chance of them getting damaged is much higher.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany awesome, thank you for this info!!!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany do you put them in a padded envelope or small box when shipping? Are you concerned they will get smashed?
Did you list measurements anywhere? I didn’t hear them nor read them on the screen nor the drop-down.
Why don't you chop up or grind your butters before you try to mix those big chunks in?
Very helpful tips.. I use the same mold to make my diy soaps for me and store in a ziploc bag .. but it creates some water droplets in a few days on top of the soap..:( how to avoid this?
It sounds liken you are using a melt and pour base. Try using a low sweat base and spritzing the top with running alcohol. Also they should be shrink wrapped airtight right after unmolding
Could you please add the quantities.
Hello ma'am, do you conduct training?
What about soy wax? Oh heck I'll try it. Let ya know
You won't get it all melted down without putting it in the microwave to heat it up some don't let her fool yeah you can do Cocoa butter and shave butter in the microwave it will not hurt them in the least I know this from experience
How much were the measurements for your ingredients?
I believe she said you can purchase her recipe on Patreon page. Go check it out in her description.
By waiting for the base to set up she has to re microwave the big batch to get it all soft and out of the container
What weight of ingredients did you use?
This recipe is listed on my patreon page. You can find the link in the description box. :)
She wants you to pay $$ for measurements.
I thought that if you sell products you have to include ounces, address and how to use? Am I wrong?
Buy go for buy
What if I don't have beeswax?
Candelila wax is a healthier and less expensive wax
Do you not have to wear gloves if your making these items for sale?
My Humble Abode yes, it is recommended that you wear gloves if you are selling them
Her hands are more clean from yours .She washed her hands. Gloves are not perfect clean.
I worked in restaurant and not always wearing gloves ,but I washed my hands 100 times .
why no measurements? where do u have those posted??
She said they are on her Patron page...
@@racole1211 i can't find them
😞 I was hoping to get the recipe, that's how I landed here
Aparna Kumari hi there, this recipe is on my Patreon campaign
Processed and dyed beeswax...using a microwave for this project...oh boy. These are really precious oils and butters and putting them in a microwave strips them from all of the properties..
Anything good to say today?
I wondered about the microwaving by all lotion bar and soap makers but I guess it's easier, quicker and less chance to burn than when using a double boiler.
How come you use bleached Beeswax Pellets?
Did you know you can use Ecosoya Q210?
I think maybe you should put a warning label on these for buyers whom may be Pregnant, breastfeeding or on certain medication.
Natasha Chillaxing Melts, Candles & Body Products yes, I have used skin safe soy wax for lotion bars in the past. Personally, I prefer the cosmetic grade beeswax. Thanks for your feedback
Y do u call it lotion bars? Lotion it made with water and other ingredients this one is made with “oil” it should be called butter bars or oil bars.
See all the residue she has in the container if she did smaller batches of the bars a smaller size bar she could get a whole another bar out of The Leftovers that she leaves in her original container and on the spatula's and on the spoon she is wasting product
You are using white beeswax that's more refined it has had more of the natural stuff stripped from it it's not as good as yellow bees wax
Please tell me the measurements🙃
Your product would sell better if people could see it...
Oh this isn’t a “How to tutorial”, this is a “Watch you make YOUR”. Title is misleading. I’m not looking to watch and not learn anymore then I already knew.
The formula is available on my Patreon campaign as stated in the video. The link to my campaign is in the description box of this video. This is the visual process and tutorial that follows along with the written one available on my campaign. Thanks for watching.
That is way too much stuff for packaging.. just shrink wrap with your tag inside on the bottom
Adding that fragrance oil just killed off any natural ingredients you put in....what a waste
Cant you afford new coffee filters?
They are new. They are unbleached.
