  • We've got the men in mind in todays video. This Beard Balm formula is deeply conditioning on the hair follicles, and moisturizing on the skin underneath. Let's pamper the facial hair! (p.s. this also makes a great hair balm for super dry or frizzy "head" hair😉)

    I made this recipe for my daughter's boyfriend who has a beard...also, my husband who doesn't have a beard. Both rave about this salve and my daughters boyfriend says it is the best he has ever used on his beard and how soothing and moisturizing it is. My husband too, he loves how it makes his skin feel. Thank you so much Ellen, you truly have a sharing spirit and are a joy to watch!

    I followed this last week to make my own Beard Balm! My only change is I substituted Grapeseed Oil instead of Olive Oil otherwise I went step by step. This was so easy to make, and the balm is absolutely amazing! The Oak and Whiskey scent smells so good. I also made a second batch with the same brand of oils and bought their Pipe Tobacco scent which was equally as amazing! Thank you so much for this video!

    Ruth Ellen, thank you so much for your knowledge and kind spirit. I have used a couple of your recipes and my family members have greatly enjoyed them. It took a hot minute to figure out what you meant by giving me the percentages to figure out how to scale up or down the recipe. I work as a nurse, and some days, are extremely stressful. By listening to your voice, and making your recipes relaxes me, and give me comfort in creating something people will enjoy. I will always be grateful to you and your kind spirit...

  • @NaturalMackie
    @NaturalMackie Před rokem

    So many nourishing ingredients. Babassu would be a great substitute for coconut oil. It’s very moisturizing for hair. I learned this years ago from a young lady promoting products with it before it was a thing in North America. She worked at an orphanage in Costa Rica I think and the local women used it in their hair and you only need a little to keep it hydrated, particularly for coarse, kinky, coily hair. Perfect for beards because men’s face hair is more coarse and thick. Love your channel. ❤

    This is definitely one I'll be trying. Thanks so much Ellen. Side point - I made your choc-mint lip balm a few months ago and have given away several tubes to family and friends. They all ABSOLUTELY RAVE about it (two people say it's the best they've ever used - one ladies husband, who is a cattleman, took hers and it never leaves his pocket, I'll have to send her another one). Such a beautiful simple recipe and yet so loved by my family and friends. Thanks again Ellen - you're a legend for sharing.

    Hi Ellen, just want to say that last weekend I made a batch of 24 of these beard balms the way you did. It really is such an easy recipe to follow and was also so nice to make. The only difference I did with mine is that I used candelilla wax instead of beeswax and argan oil instead of jojoba oil. I used 8 different aftershave inspired fragrance oils and all turned out brilliantly. Thanks for a wonderful and easy beard balm recipe 😊

    I have a question regarding lotion bars. I made a batch and for some reason I increased the oils and butters and they are too soft. If I melt them down slowly and add more beeswax, and maybe cocoa butter and/or kokum butter would they be useable? If not I will just pitch them now and try again later. Thanks so much for your help and sharing your vast knowledge. Debbie

    My fiancé has extremely sensitive skin. We’re getting married right around the corner. Anyway, l was reading several beard balms he bought had a lot of fillers like alcohol, which has known to cause dryness. Anyway, l got tired of him wasting money on beard products that hasn’t improved or made his beard softer. So since l’m frugal like Ellen & natural products l told him l got a recipe from Ellen Ruth, his like “when did you have a friend named Ellen Ruth.”😂 Anyway, Ellen l’ll have to try your recipe except l’m absolutely in LOVE with parrila (sp) wax vegan, vitamin E & organic cedar essential oil. We’ll be combining our finances once we’re married so told him l’ll make the next beard balm. So even though l’m not following your recipe exactly but watching you make the video it looks less intimidating. Sorry, I’m totally rambling here. I found all my products & l even found 2oz tin sliver cans at the Dollar Tree very similar to the ones on Amazon but $0.04 less & no shipping. Boy LOVE a bargain. I’ll let ya’ll know how it turns out. ❤️💕🎊🎉🥳 Very excited & thankful to learn something new as well as useful. 🤓💓💖💝

    Ellen, I’m allergic to Hemp. What would recommend as a substitute for this?

    Hi Ellen! I made this a few weeks ago and my husband has been using it and loves it. However as he has gotten towards the bottom, it’s getting very mushy, almost too liquidy, and grainy. Any ideas why?

    • @EllenRuthSoap
      @EllenRuthSoap  Před rokem

      Hmm, that's an interesting issue?? Maybe it wasn't mixed super well and had a bit of separation?

  • @Minnettescandlesandessentials

    Hi Ellen! What would u say if we wanted to add ESSENTIAL oil instead of fragrance oil? How many drops would we add?? TIA

    Babassu oil is similar in texture & consistency to Coconut oil.

    Can I use blackseed oil instead of the hemp seed oil?

    Ruth Ellen could you covert grams to oz's please? My mind cannot wrap around grams. I want to make a large batch to give away to friends and family, or more specifically scale to to a large size instead of making two? I don't want to make a mistake and ruin my expensive oils and butters.. Thank you for your time

    • @EllenRuthSoap
      @EllenRuthSoap  Před rokem

      The recipe in the description box is in % so you can scale it as much as needed and it works in both grams and oz. Also google has a great grams to oz feature.

    Can soywax be used in seats of beeswax?
    Coconut oil - can one use fractured so it’s not solid?

    • @EllenRuthSoap
      @EllenRuthSoap  Před 4 měsíci

      No, Soywax wouldn’t be a good substitute, you could use candelilla wax instead. And you don’t want to replace the solid oils with liquid oils because it will affect the final consistency.

    i made the recipe up the other day and when i went to pour it into the tins it set really quickly and it has lumps in it like it wasn't mixed well but i did mix it very well and i used candelilla wax but it is great to use on my dry and frizzy hair. Is there any way of making sure it is a liquid form before i pour it into the tins

    • @EllenRuthSoap
      @EllenRuthSoap  Před 11 měsíci +1

      It sounds like it was cooling unevenly. You can try pouring while it's still very warm, that helps.

      @EllenRuthSoap  Před 2 měsíci

      Look up whatever preservative you're using, they should provide a usage % rate

    What batch size is this in grams? And could you use colloidal oats to prevent itchy skin?

      Yes, you could add some coloidal oats👍 google has a great oz to grams function.

      Ok thank you! Also I want to use candelilla wax instead of beeswax but I’m having a hard time knowing how much of it to add to replace the beeswax. I’ve done lots of research but I’m not finding a lot of helpful answers
