It's a real shame that you have to almost beg people not to be nasty! People always have such crazy expectations and can't just take something for what it is. I love all your videos! And appreciate all the time and energy you put into sharing your formulations with us! Hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
lol yeah i wasn’t having it in this video 😂 i’m sick and didn’t wanna read rude comments so i wanted to shut it down before it happened. so glad you enjoy my videos 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 hope you have a wonderful holiday season too 🥰
I am Inspired to create when I watch your videos and will soon have my own CZcams channel formulating. Formulating is fun and interesting…sucks to be mean. Just know you inspire us over here at Bedewed Skin!!
Girl I enjoy and love watching your videos your really good at doing body scrubs and body butters and yes people are always going to be haters because they’re jealous of your success and happiness of doing what you do.
So I found using 5% silica was perfect and I added extra glycerin along with a polysorbate 20 line leaves the skin silky, smooth and you’ll see a little oil floating to the top not much a tiny bed but I now sell it to salons and they said it’s the best one they’ve ever used, so I personally would stick with the 5% silica maybe seven at the most. Thank you Tara again for an amazing video.
Do you keep the formula the same? Just decrease the silica usage and increase the glycerin and polysorbate? Or do add more oil too to replace the 25% that you're not adding from the silica? I hope you don't mind replying, thanks in advance.
@@adrianaa9775 sorry it took me so long to reply! Your glycerin should be the same, the poly 20 will depend on the % of oils used. I believe I use 7 % glycerin and 5 percent poly. You have to do testing to make sure your formulation works the way you want it to. I think you do not need over 5% silica, that is the max I would use personally at least for my formulation. Tara does a bunch of different types of formulations so I would follow what she does!
Let me just say this Tara, I absolutely love your videos. When I came across your channel about six years ago I was hooked. But something that I think is awesome is the spotlighting of other small businesses. Thank you for continuing to highlight these businesses along with your as well.
I think you did a fab job with this. The texture when you used it looked a little more similar too. I sometimes think that many brands will include a lot of ‘good for marketing’ ingredients, but use them all in very small amounts. Added together they will make a good percentage of the final product, but when there are so many you’ve got to question how effective each one will be in the end product. That said, Treehut will know a lot more about formulating that me 😂 I’ve not looked at duping TreeHut before, but I think when duping, we should be trying to make them our own anyway. Looking at it, I probably would have done similar to you.
Your dupe in this video and the other video are so stinking close! They both look amazing! Also, I use Tree Hut sugar scrubs a good bit and they separate too!
Try mixing those gelling powders with glycerine first. It helps them blend and absorb better. Maybe a emulsifing wax instead of shea butter. You don't have to use everything they do. Skip the Titanium. I also would probably use a castor oil as sugar scrubs can be drying. I'm a person who prefer butters so I probably wouldn't like theirs. I notice people not of my hue prefer creams and quick absorbable. Opposite of me so maybe some wouldn't like castor oil but it would help the drying effect.
@@TaraLeee They are tree huts' rare discontinued scrubs but apparently, they were some of the best, & still highly talked about. I think you would do great at it!😁
Love your dupe! Thank you for sharing and the effort you put into your videos. Looking forward to the Tree Hut Vitamin C Scrub Dupe! I appreciate you and all you do for the diy-ers!
I love you tara I always save your videos when I'm bored I just turned my phone on n watching your formulation I learn a lot from you thank you so much God bless you
Great video loved the texture sister thank you for your hardwork how much you put ur efforts to teach us . Get well soon sister. Lots of love and advance Christmas wishes from india ❤️
Theirs is definitely a emulsified scrub, water, surfactant, emollient, gum, oil, emulsifier, co emulsifier, preservative, extract, fo and sugar… Do try it my scrubs have that exact textures❤
I am a soap maker and titanium dioxide always thickens up my batches! I am pretty sure that is the culprit. Also, if I make the Silica base how long will it last and how do I store it if I dont use it all?
the silica base won’t mold since it’s anhydrous. it will go rancid. so essentially it’s good as long as the oils are. add vitamin E to keep it fresh longer. & that’s goood to know about titanium dioxide. thanks!
Thanks, tara, I've learned so much from your channel. to make the Silica Base, can I substitute SI02 ( silicon dioxide ) for Silica Dimethyl Silylate? i cant find silica dimethyl silylate in my country
First, thank you for being so generous and awesome. I've learned so much from your videos!!! My daughter is obsessed with this tree hut scrub and the water at her dorm room is so hard a foaming scrub doesn't lather! So she asked me to do an emulsified scrub, this one, if I could figure it out- so here I am. (It just so happens that I have also been obsessing with curiosity about glycerin heavy sugar scrub- so win/win?) In geeking out on ingredients, I read that although the ideal usage range lists up to 30%, the ideal ratio of silica in a sugar scrub (although it is a thickener it is also an oil absorber) is about five times the fragrance oils (id imagine botanicals included) Do you think that might help get adjust the ratio and give more clues for the rest of the ingredients? Im thinking somehwhere around 6% if all those oils sit at about 2 % each. (And the math makes sense if polysorbate is listed before the silica in the ingredients list- it would have to be the same or less in total compared to the poly 20, right?) I also think that aloe vera extract would help the consistency, would be an alcohol-ish type base to thin the overall gel and may just be the "plant extracts" listed after silica. (that ingredient also seems to make sense amongst the tropical, botanical, skin-loving stuff) I also think you're right about the percentages of oils in total, as I don't think they use a ton of each but the sum adds up to a large bulk of the recipe. Lastly, its a tiny amount but the recipe does have water. and the water is listed above the optiphen ingredients, so I'm thinking tree hut would need to have water set at 1% minimum. (I cant decide between .5 and 2% for the water). Guess Ill just have to conduct some experiments this weekend! Thanks for all you do! I sure appreciate you, your channel and your fabulous content!
thanks for the suggestion 🥰 i’ve never worked with it until now. well i used it maybe 4 years ago, but i don’t remember what i used it for. so i don’t count that. lol
So I looked at the ingredients list and it does have water before the preservative so I think adding some water to the formula will give you the texture you’re going for while keeping the ingredients the same
im sure i could get the gel texture by using different ingredients. i’ve made gel scrubs in the past, but i made a rule for myself that i’m trying to stick with only ingredients in the product. i don’t have to use all their ingredients they use though. lol that’s my rule i made up for myself with this scrub
I love your stuff. And believe it or not my grandson loves the watermelon scrub! He is 13. And your video is awesome. Even your sick brain. Mine is the same way :)
Can someone make this and sell it in a glass jar!? I will buy a lifetime supply 😂I’ve been wanting to buy or make body scrubs that are in more eco-friendly packaging, but all the homemade scrubs clog up my razors when i use them before shaving because of them being such a thick coconut oil or shea butter base rather than a lighter texture like tree hut
i want to, but i wanna buy it and i can’t seem to find it in stores. i guess i may have to pay more and buy online. they are always so much cheaper in stores.

I believe its the Titanium Dioxide that messed with the consistency. I've worked with that ingredient before and it seems to thicken up my formulations taking away the smoothness. Hope that's helpful and sick brain is the worst. Inflammation is no fun. Feel better Tara.
lol yes the sick brain! like my computer screen was fuzzy or wavy like the whole time i edited this video 🫠 i don’t really work with titanium dioxide i bought it specifically to dupe this product. so i don’t have much experience with it. & thank you! i thought today would be the day i woke up feeling better, but i guess i need another day. lol
Working with TD it is best if it is hydrated with your oils / water. Also all TD is not created equal some are water soluble and others are oil soluble.
this one separates. i talked about this in the video. the scoopable one should not separate! i would revisit the formula and see if you made and error or something.
I tried to make a 60 gram batch of the silica gel base using 70% oil and 30% silica and it was waaaaay too much silica. the silica was not hydrated whatsoever. I had to add sooo much more oil. It ended up being more like 91% oil 9% silica. Idk if 70% oil 30% silica is accurate..
Hi I want to make lipstick but confused about colours? I want to produce like brands with a range of colours and each time thebatch dolor must be matching.

I’ve never used tree hut, won’t be using since you mentioned the skin becomes drier… in my view your version is better since it’s thicker ☃️
