Made a batch of this formula this morning. It is perfection! Just the right amount of slip. I think i've been converted to emulsified body butters. Thank you!
Oh Marie, it feels like you reached another level. I'm loving the new intro background, the humblebee and me towel is lovely, the overall appearence of your videos just look so professional
Thank you so much! ❤️ I've really been working on improving my videos and I'm so glad it shows ❤️
😍😍😍I LOVE body butters!! However; the greasiness limits when I’m comfortable applying it. This seems like a total game changer and I can’t wait until I’m able to make it and try it!! Thank you so so so much Marie 🐝. ☮️💟
I tried this recipe and I want to say a big THANK YOU! especially for introducing me to this emulsifier. Made a huge difference in my product. God Bless You!
Hooray! Isn't it wonderful?! ❤️ I'm so glad you are loving it!
I love cocoa butter and coconut oil with btms 25 in conditioner for curly hair. They smell AMAZING together. I can't wait to follow your recipe for this butter. Your blog is so helpful, I was able to find glyceryl stereate with the brand names your mention on there. Thank you!
Oh my goodness, Marie. I made this yesterday, and it is just divine! I absolutely love it. Thank you for this DIY.
I'm so glad to hear it, Tammy! Thanks for DIYing with me, and happy making :)
@@HumblebeeAndMe Hi Marie! So, it's been a month, and this emulsified body butter has been still super amazing, however, about a week ago, our weather finally turned (I live in California), and as it's been a lot colder in the house, the body butter has pretty much solidified. It still obviously works great, but it's hard to apply, because, well, it's hard. Any suggestions on how to get it back to it's fluffy creamy goodness? I don't want to mess it up by throwing it in the microwave.
So lovely thanks for all the time you put into these videos. They are so helpful and I love your smaller amount recipes. THank so much.
❤️ Thank you so much!
I love love LOVE Glyceryl Stearate and PEG 100 Stearate!! It's my go to and I have SO many emulsifers. It's my favorite because it's so versatile but also because it's so so so effective. It's bulletproof!! I especially love combining it with Aristoflex and Sepimax zen.
I am having SO much fun playing with it! Thanks for the final push :)
Thank you Marie!
You are the best 😊 please Make a video about preservatives and how to add them to the boby butter, the body scrub and salt bath ... and how to make a linen perfume
I made it today and OMG I am in love. It's so moisturizing, nourishing but absorbs pretty quickly. I didn't have a super fragrance cocoa butter so I added cocoa, coconut, and honey FO and it smells divine. I also added 0.4 Xanthan Gum. I will be definitely making more of this butter and play with different oils and butter. I was thinking of adding 3-5% Urea to boost the deep moisturizing properties of this butter. Thank you for inspiring us!
I'm so thrilled you are loving your creation! Thanks for DIYing with me, and happy making :)
Hi! Can you tell me what are the measurements you used?
Sounds great!
What dooees the gum change?
my favourite diy youtube ever. thanks for this video again !!!!!
Wow, thank you! ❤️
Wow another winner,can’t wait to make it
I hope you love it! ❤️
I made this as soon as it came out and LOVED it! I still love it but because there is so much cocoa butter it get hard over time and if the room is too cool! I have t scrape it out to use it, lol.
This looks pretty good Marie! I have some of the other stearate, but I need to run 🏃🏾♀️ and purchase some stearate PEG 100 ASAP!! Thanks Sis 😘
You will LOVE it, I promise! ❤️
Great video, yet again! Will look into this emulsifier, pronto! Please can you make emulsified body scrub. Curious to see your take on that! Thank you for all that you do. FYI I mentioned you as one of my inspirations in my Formula Botanica DOSF final project. Been watching and liking your videos a long time really, but I think this maybe my first comment. 😊
Thank you so much! I've shared quite a few emulsified body scrubs over the years :) And congrats on your Diploma in Organic Skincare Formulation! ❤️
Definitely making this!
I hope you love it! ❤️
Me encanta 😍😍😍
So far this is my favorite body butter. Baraka rocks
They really do! ❤️
I love love Glyceryl Stearate and PEG 100!
Me too! ❤️
Your explanation is simply perfection, very easy to understand. Also Please make a video on body yogurts😁
I'll keep it in mind-thanks for the suggestion!
as lovely as ever
Thank you Marie
❤️
Thank u for your video, what is the shelf life and how does one increase it and hoow do we add fragrance,how much and when? Thank you
You deserve millions of subscribers 🙄😭. You are such a gift 😇😇😍
Thank you so much! ❤️
I have these ingredients..gonna do this weekend😍😍😍
Hooray! Thanks for DIYing with me, and happy making :)
I made it but it’s winter here and it has become very thick after some days what can I change in recipe that it not hardens
Wow! Please make some video on body yogurt as well 😊😇
I'll keep it in mind-thanks for the suggestion!
What is emulsified? How is it different from the other body butter without glycerin?
Oooooh... I wonder how this would feel with dimethicone 350 and penstia powder! Gonna give this a try.
❤️
I noticed that in more recent Videos You use xanthan gum when using this emulsifier... does this body butter hold it's form without it or do you think it's worth adding in? I read the blog but it wasn't covered. Please let me know. Thanks for the videos they are appreciated
Thank u so much mam for the formulation. Very nice mam, gorgeous buttery.. Want to make mam but i dont have peg100stearate, i have glyceryl monostearate.. pls suggest mam can i add only GMS 4.75% n all others to make this formulation.. will it come out nice Mam? Just waiting for ur reply. Thank u once again.
Hello Bees, Can I change out the butter for Kokum butter?
Hi Marie! Hope you are doing well. Just a question, can I use an electric whisk instead of a stick blender?
Hi Marie, Im in YYC as well and I made this about 1 month ago. Is it supposed to stay a thick 'creamy' consistency....because during the recent cold snap, my furnace died and my glorious body butter hardened to an almost solid state and seems to have stayed that way...
I loved the consistency it was beforehand and its still amazing, but more difficult to use in its 'solid' state. lol
I love this! I normally HATE body butters because of the greasiness even with cornstarch in them. Is this one greasy?
I don't find it greasy, though it's definitely rich :) If you are familiar with The Body Shop's body butters, it's somewhat similar. Happy making!
hey, thank u for a lovely recipe. I can't seem to find Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate in India (neither with the names in the encyclopedia on humblebee. Is there a substitute?
Hi Marie,
Thank you for sharing your wonderful videos!!!
I have maybe an off topic question about two products and what your thoughts are on them. Propylene glycol
and the preservative
Phenoxyethanol.
Would you use them in terms of toxicity and would you use Plantaserve E instead of phenoxyethanol...
Thanks in advance!
I have no issues with either ingredient when used within their specific safe usage range :)
Lovely formula Marie, I just made it, and the scent is divine, more cocoa scent than coconut. It's not greasy and suits my dry skin. I did tweak it a bit with some Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone Crosspolymer @ 2.5% as I like the feel it gives. I really like Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate and have used it on very light emulsions, however I was curious about your formula and it wowed me. 😉 Thank you for sharing your wonderful formulas!
Ya know, I'm usually not into body butters, with the exception of mango-butter-heavy stuff. Regular ones are too greasy, and emulsified ones are just thick lotion (that's how they seem to me personally anyway). This, though? This is perfect. It's not too greasy and it's 25% real butter! I made mine with non-virgin coconut oil and 5% coffee carrier oil to get a mocha fragrance instead of cocoa coconut, but otherwise I stuck to the original. It's seriously perfect. It's like... You know how whipped cream tastes rich but feels light, and you can put an embarrassing amount on your dessert without it feeling like too much rich food while you're eating it? Yeah, it's like that. It feels rich but not heavy on the skin.
I made this and wow. I love it. Question though, what will I reduce to make it a little thicker?
I'd give it a few days-it's pretty dang thick, and may thicken up further. Happy making!
Can you add btms 50 to this?
Hi there, is cetyl alcohol essential to this recipe?
I made this and the thickness is gorgeous but the absorbency felt like forever slow and greasy I had to wash my legs to put my clothes on from the greasiness 😓 but other than those two factors it’s very lovely
It's virgin coconut oil, it's not bleached so it retains the coconut smell but also goes rancid a lot faster. When rancid it gets stanky so bad
Coconut oil, refined or unrefined, is a very shelf stable fat-in my experience it can easily last two years :)
Hi Marie! Is it possible to swap the preservative with something like Leucidal liquid? Thank you so much, excited to try this!
Please read this FAQ: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/can-i-use-a-different-preservative-than-the-one-youve-used/. Happy making!
Looks so luscious. Marie, can you make something similar to their body yogurt?
I'll keep it in mind! In the meantime, Formula Botanica just shared one on their blog :) formulabotanica.com/blog/
@@HumblebeeAndMe wow, will take a look at this formula thanks 😍
Hi Marie. Thank you for the share.
Was wondering if we could add essential oil- what is your advice
Yes you can! Check out this post to learn more/how: www.humblebeeandme.com/essential-oils-in-lotion/
I think 0.5% peppermint essential oil would be lovely in this formula :)
do emulsifiers affect people with eczma?
Hi Marie, thanks for the lovely vids. Love them all!! What is your take on PEGs. My knowledge so far is that they are not natural, Can you give us some more info on them. Thanks
Hello & thanks for watching! I don't have any safety concerns about PEGs; they aren't natural, but natural-ness is not an indicator of safety :) Like many things we use regularly, PEGs have the potential to be harmful (like milk before it's been pasteurized or water before it's been treated), but the risks are well known and extremely carefully controlled. You can learn more here: cosmeticsinfo.org/ingredient/peg-100-stearate :) Happy making!
@@HumblebeeAndMe that link isn't working. Is there somewhere else I can read about them please?
@@HumblebeeAndMe thanks Marie. Always so well versed and knowledgeable.
Hey, just made this but with sunflower oil instead. Loved it ❤ but i have a slight issue the final weight didn’t add up to the weight i was formulating. Any advice?
You'll always end up losing some % of the product to beakers, stirring implements, etc. That's normal and unavoidable! As long as you didn't lose a lot (3%+) I wouldn't be too worried. Happy making!
How much can i scale this up? I made this tonight and it is awesome. It’s my first time making something like this. I am a hobbyist soap maker (cold process) so this stuff is new to me. This recipe fit perfectly in a 4oz mason jar. Can i triple this recipe with no issues? i know sometimes that recipes can’t be scaled up too much.
Scaling instructions are in the partner blog post :) Happy making!
Now I totally need to get some dark chocolate and melt some coconut oil into it... Why do amazing formulations always look like amazing food? 🤤
I can't wait to try this! Body butters are all too greasy for me but I don't like the feel of the emulsifiers I've tried to pair with them, so I had pretty much given up on them. You have given me new hope! 😂
How much preservative should I put into my cream to keep it for 2years
@@heavenlytelevision7440 You'd have to check the usage rates of your preservative, you should be able to get more info from the person you bought it from. :-)
Hi don't we need to check the ph level since there's water in the recipe? Or since its a body butter its fine not to? Thanks!
There are no ingredients in here that are sensitive enough to pH to require testing, though you're certainly welcome to check if you want (and will have to if you use a more pH sensitive preservative). Happy making!
Could I use this to wash my hair? I want to make a gentle shampoo and conditioner. Store bought brands tend cause scalp irritation, redness and soreness these days. Even though I have used the brands for years I have experienced itching, dryness, and scalp irritation. I think it may be the chemicals or ingredients used to formulate the shampoos.
That'll be a big "it depends"-mostly on your hair. This would make my hair an oily mess, but if your hair is drier than mine it could be great. Happy making!
Can we add xanthum gum to distilled water in this recipe to keep the structure ?
There is no need to, the solid fats more than do that!
I do not understand how you calculated the emulsifier amount... seems a bit low for the oil phase...please explain Marie. Thank you.
This emulsifier is different from thickening emulsifiers like Emulsifying Wax NF; learn more about it in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) :) There's also more information here: www.humblebeeandme.com/super-simple-moisturizing-lotion-with-glyceryl-stearate-and-peg-100-stearate/. Happy making!
The lipstick look gorgeous on you
I would like to add a fragrance oil, like Oatmeal, Milk & Honey... how much would I put into this recipe? Thank you!
Hey! You'll find the answer to your question in my FAQ on my website at www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/can-i-add-a-fragrance-oil-or-flavour-oil-to-this-formulation/ 🙂 Happy making!
Can I use only glyceryl stearate? I am not getting glyceryl stearate and peg 100 stearate. What difference it will make??
No; if you do that, the formulation will completely fail. Please read the blog post & Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) entry on the emulsifier to learn more. Happy making!
do you think a hydrosol would be fine instead of water if I wanted to try that?
Generally yes-please read this: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/what-can-i-use-instead-of-water/. Happy making!
How do I change the ingredients to make 8oz of this?
She lists the percentages of each ingredient in the recipe. The recipe makes 100g which is a little over 3 oz. If you just double the recipe you will end up with 200g which is basically 7oz
Nice it seems very nice one, would you mind to give me a substitute for the PEG100-Stearate please?
Thanks in advance for your reply 😊
Not who you asked but the PEG 100 Stearate cannot be replaced with anything because it's part of the emulsifer (Glyceryl Stearate and PEG 100 Stearate, aka Lotionpro 165.) It's an incredible emulsifer and in my humble opinion every formulator should try it! It will blow your mind.
@@e.a.4926 you are right this is a great product.
It's in her blog
@@e.a.4926 I am doomed then. It is not available in our country. I have read that it makes a very thin emulsion and that is something I have been looking for.
@@raadizon3442 my second favorite is BTMS. Can you get that? Or Cetearyl Alcohol and Ceteareth 20, I hear that makes a thin emulsion too. I'm actually a little disappointed with how my Lotionpro emulsion turned out yesterday. It's soapy.
hii...how to make matte facial moisturiser...let me knw
Hey! You’ll find what you’re looking for quite easily on my blog 🙂
If you visit humblebeeandme.com/search and search for "mattifying", it should pop right up.
Happy making!
I have glyceryl stearate and emulsifying wax, can i mix it?
No, that is not the same thing I used. PLEASE refer to all the resources linked in the blog post!
👋 hello !!! Can I replace and put polawax and optiphen ?
Hi! Please please please read the blog post-the polawax/different emulsifier question is also answered many times in the video. Happy making!
@@HumblebeeAndMe thank you so much ,I wish you a happy new wear 🎆
Hi Marie, I'm wondering what would you reduce to make this work in a pump bottle? Please respondxx
That's a bit like asking what you'd reduce in a cake to make it a smoothie-it'd be a ton of really fundamental changes :) I'd recommend this formulation instead: www.humblebeeandme.com/heavenly-cocoa-lotion/. Happy making!
@@HumblebeeAndMe Thank you so much!

Where did you get your beautiful cloth?

Can you please make a banana scented product? I'm on a banana kick, lately!
Off video topic question. On an earlier video on how to make beard balm you recommend BTMS-50. I can easily find BTMS-25 but the 50 version seems rare. If found only one place on the web and it was expensive. Why does it seem to be so rare and can you recommend a few places in the United States that supplies it? P.S. I love your channel and look forward to making many of your DIY recipes.
Hey! You'll find the answers you're looking for in the Humblebee & Me Encyclopedia at www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia. Simply look up the ingredients in question to learn about why they are used in formulas, what they do, where to buy it, and more. Happy making!
I buy mine from Wholesale Supplies. Not too bad price wise and it's worth it because it's freaking great.
Wholesale Supplies and Brambleberry both sell BTMS-50
Lotioncrafter sells it as well.
I buy mine from Windy Point in Canada, even though I'm in the USA. [Minnesota, so I'm practically in Canada :-) ] The prices are excellent after you convert the currency, and shipping is not too bad.
If you're on the west coast, Voyageur is a good place to look as well.
It's pretty easy to find ingredients in the USA ... we're very lucky.
Can we add fragrance to this recipe??
Yup! I have FAQs on how in my FAQ (www.humblebeeandme.com/faq/) :)
can you suggest any natural water in oil emulsifier, dont want to use PEG
Not for this formulation-I talk about this pretty extensively in both the post and video :)
@@HumblebeeAndMe yes you have shared blog about lecithin but only with oil components, I want to see and read about the role of Lecithin in O/w and W/O emulsification.
Is that the same as Glyceryl Stearate Citrate?
No. When ingredients have different INCI names, they are different :)
When I re measure my hot water, the number keeps going up. Is that not normal or is it bc the vase is still hot?
It sounds like your scale might be malfunctioning due to having something really hot on it-try putting a hot pad between the measuring cup and scale, ensuring the hot pad is tare'd as well :)
@@HumblebeeAndMe Thank you!!!! :D
Can i use olivem 1000 instead of Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate ?
No; if you do that, the formulation will completely fail. Please read the blog post & Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) entry on the emulsifier to learn more. Happy making!
@@HumblebeeAndMe Thank you for reply.
Can I recommended you to make video for making Satsuma body butter? I'm really like satsuma scents especially from body shop but I'm confused to chose the best ingredients for make it.
I don't use water or synthetics
Could you add cocoa powder in this recipe?
You could, but it would make the product much more likely to leave brown smears on clothes, sheets, furniture, etc.
Where can I purchase the Shea butter ?
I always link all the ingredients for any given formulation in the blog post, which is linked in the description box below the video (that's one of the many reasons I highly suggest reading the blog post as well as watching the video! If you're not sure what I mean by the "description box", read this: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/whats-the-description-box-on-youtube/.).
Sometimes those links break because they're always off-site links, or sometimes the store I've linked to isn't in your country. That's why I also have a giant page of places to shop all over the world, which you can find here: www.humblebeeandme.com/resources/. It doesn't have every country in the world, but it does contain all the online stores I know about. If your country isn't listed, that's because I don't know about any online stores in your country. You could try looking for a local Facebook group for people who like making soap & other cosmetics-they may be able to recommend places to shop.

Is this glyceryl stearate same as glyceryl mono stearate? GSM? The one we use to make ice creams?
Please read up on the emulsifier in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) + in the blog post :)
@@HumblebeeAndMe I read and now I am more confused than before 😶 can please help me out?
@@twinkle8347 Hmm. So, glyceryl stearate is glyceryl stearate (or monostearate). BUT that is not what is used in this formulation-this formulation uses Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate, and that AND is really important. Think of it a bit like the difference between NaCl (sodium chloride aka salt) and just Cl (chlorine). You wouldn't try to use chlorine instead of salt, and you cannot use glyceryl stearate instead of Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate, even though half of that ingredient (roughly) is glyceryl stearate.
I recommend reading through these posts as well: www.humblebeeandme.com/how-to-research-your-ingredients-part-1 & www.humblebeeandme.com/how-to-research-your-ingredients-part-2.

@@HumblebeeAndMe yes this helps a lot! Thank you! One more question, the recipe I got uses glyceryl mono stearate and cetyl alcohol, so are they okay? I mean what would you say?
Hi my dear ..you didn't use preservative in this body butter.. why dear ?
I most definitely do, starting at 07:08.
What’s its shelf life

I liked the way you made it and explained it.. however when I made this, the experiment failed miserably... it got so thick in first churn I couldn’t churn the next time. Whereas yours got thickened in the 3rd round... don’t know what went wrong. Used the exact measurements as you wrote. Can you please help identify the reason for failure?
It sounds like you used a different emulsifier-that's my best guess. Do the INCIs for all of your ingredients match perfectly?
Can we use Glyeceryl monostearate instead of Glyceryl stereate
No; please read up on the emulsifier in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/). Happy making!
Is this considered a cosmetic?
Yes.
I thought PEG’s were bad?
They're really not. Like many things we use regularly, they have the potential to be harmful (like milk before it's been pasteurized or water before it's been treated), but the risks are well known and extremely carefully controlled. You can learn more here: cosmeticsinfo.org/ingredient/peg-100-stearate :)
Hi, after years of making fun & massively informative emulsion & concoctions, I noticed you always take out the blender whole between blending. Why not leave the bottom in and that way you don’t have to scrape it out as much. Just caught my eye. 🥰 still love everything you share with us & I miss the lives on Sunday’s...
It's a thing I do to show off the consistency better on camera-I don't usually bother if I'm not filming :)
