I just want to say THANK YOU for not been selfish, sharing your recipes and your knowledge , You have become my virtual teacher. I am very grateful .I don't buy products in the store since the pandemic started. I am high risk 75 yrs old therefor I decided that to keep my sanity at home I need to do something to keep busy . I started following you and learned from you how to make my soaps and body butter, God bless you.

You are so welcome!

Same here ! On Chemo and infusions for RA... I've been home since the beginning as well. Keep strong and safe ❤

[@aprilfraize2168]

Just a heads up, add the vitamin E when it's cooled down a bit. You lose the antioxidant effect if it's heated. And it doesn't preserve the oils as well.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Good to know!

[@brigitasehgal2937]

Yes it should be added at the same time with fragrances. Lovely recipe.👍💖

[@irenesamson7764]

So true, the Vitamin E oil is wasted in this production

[@dianeespinoza8647]

Yes we should be using vitamin E for skin benefit and as an anti oxidant for our butters, it can slow rancidity if you use a more pure form . Look for T-50 mixed tocopherols. ❤️ The type of vitamin e oil used in this video is not an antioxidant for oil I am not sure about skin

[@bridgettekatsane7400]

Didn't know this, good to know😉 thanks

[@GaytanFamilyFarm]

I've made this recipe now so many times, and I first shared it with family for Christmas. I got so many requests to make more, I decided to make it and take it to my shows. I offered sample jars with wooden sticks. Lots of people love it. Thank you for the recipe. ❤

Hi Ellen. This recipe looked so good. But not having the ingredients on hand, I decided to order product direct from you. Let me tell you what a wonderful experience that turned out to be! About two hours after placing my order I was notified the order was already processed! My order arrived a couple days later - about a week sooner than I expected! And I’m now enjoying not only your wonderful Whipped BODY BUTTER but also your delightful All Natural LIP BUTTER Balm. Thank you for all you do.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

[@theuncagedtigress5692]

Just a lil note to add, if anyone is making their own body butter, u can also use Tapioca powder in place of the arrowroot and it will do the exact same thing which is take the greasiness out of the body butter. Happy making❤

[@islandgirlruby2750]

Thank you. I was looking for this comment, I’m making this today

[@ambermartin1117]

I have both now , my tapioca powder just came in the mail today and I couldn’t remember what I bought it for lol , been researching body butter, lotions, deodorants, things like that the last couple of days so that’s why I couldn’t remember what I was gonna make with it . I guess you can use regular corn starch too if you don’t have arrowroot powder or tapioca powder but the arrowroot powder is a finer powder so better to use that … correct?

[@denisev1409]

Thank you! I think I'm mildly allergic to arrowroot powder so this is so helpful!

I made this lotion for the first time this evening, and my husband came into the kitchen and got all excited because he thought I was making a cream cheese onion dip we usually just have at parties, lol. He was a little disappointed but sure liked the feel of the lotion, lol. This was super easy to make, and I had a lot of fun making it. I messed up and accidentally ordered raw shea butter, so I'll need to use some strong eo's to help combat the scent of the shea. Thanks for your recipes and your great videos! 💜

Another winner, Ellen! I have been making Lotion Bars for almost a year and decided for winter to branch out and make body butter since the ingredients are similar, but the process intimidated me. I literally watch and re-watch your instructional videos until I feel confident with the process. First time making it this week and it turned out lovely. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with those of us who would have no idea how to do this otherwise! You are a blessing!!!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

You are so welcome! I'm glad you gave it a try❣️

[@maxman5573]

Looks great thank you

[@pamcolechadwell1302]

Beautiful.

[@fierydragonk]

It was such a coincidence that you used almost everything I wanted to put in my 1st batch in this recipe! (Except that I plan to use sweet Almond oil instead of grapeseed and I hadn't planned on using coconut oil... but I do have plenty on hand). Thank you so much! I was unsure of the percentages of each item to use so this was super useful! I'll just half all the ingredients in my batch and leave out the essential oils for now. Most essential oils aren't recommended during pregnancy.

[@goolash9991]

I’m so glad I found you! This recipe looks awesome, I have all but the mango butter already. I make soap and I’ve been wanting to make lotions/body butters so thank you for posting this. I have liked and subscribed. You are very upbeat & pleasant, sister in Christ!❤

Tip for you - you can actually cut the shrink bands in half and still easily encase the threads of the lid and the top of your jars - saves a few pennies on packaging

@@EllenRuthSoap thank you so much for this video! I have been looking for a recipe that is not greasy. Thank you for showing everyone about the use of Arrow Root! I do have a question. I know you did explain about the use of a preservative. I was wondering if I were to make a this recipe and decided to ship it to a friend, would I have to worry about it melting? She lives in England, so it would have a long way to travel. I wouldn't want her to end up with a jar of goop. 😂🤣 Again, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! 💕

Hi Ellen! I made this recipe last night. It is so luxuriously rich and soothing. Thank you so much for the excellent video. I watched it as I was making the recipe.

Yes--"bur-guh-mot" (or "bur-guh-muht"). And "shey" (or "shee").

@@EllenRuthSoap how do you ship this whipped product? My concern is that its temperature sensitive, if it melts it changes the texture consistency, it turns into a salve. Please and thank you for your help.

@@CopperRoseDaAries yes,it is heat sensitive. So I typically only sell during the cooler month's

[@monicajain8272]

Hi What the shelf life for this body butter?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

@@monicajain8272 That really depends on how fresh the ingredients being used are...

[@tanana2070]

Made this recipe yesterday for the girls in my family. The texture is Heavenly! I think when I make it again though I'll take out the cocoa butter and add more of another butter. I didn't think it would be so overpowering but it is and that could be because I'm not a lover of the cocoa scent. I used lemon essential oil and it's pretty much lost. Wonderful recipe! Will make it again! Sans cocoa!

[@CindyRussi.]

I used unscented cocoa butter (refined), you should give it a try😀

[@taushalarsen1340]

I use mango butter for most of the beauty products I make and it’s heavenly if you can get the right kind.

[@KateLloyd128]

If you use refined cocoa butter, it will take away most of the scent. 🙂

[@rhondam883]

Use “ unscented” cocoa butter

[@pigwanna121]

I’m not a fan of cocoa butter smell but don’t mind the scent of Deodorized Cocoa Butter. It has a very faint to no smell.

[@inkpearls3364]

Esthetician here & skincare brand formulator for 6 yrs now 👋🏼 PLEASE always use a non-paraben preservative in all products especially if they are for retail. Also, grape seed oil only has a 6 month shelf life so WITHOUT a preservative, the product will only be safe for 6 months. Happy Holidays!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

thanks for the great info! Merry Christmas🎄

[@amandacarr4633]

Lots of companies are now leaving out preservative because all of the current ones on the market contain endocrine disrupters. Companies like Fat and the Moon now sell all ingredients without preservative and you refrigerate them and the have specific use by dates.

Also I am an organic chemist and licensed cosmetologist.

[@steelersgirl071961]

Wow, I make my body butter with all three butters you used, but I use sweet almond oil and Grape seed, or avocado oil, and this is so good and moisturizing for your skin, I really love it!! I use corn starch instead of arrow root just because its cheaper and its just about the same thing and it doesn't leave your skin greasy, it feels silky and soft 🥰. You really need a stand mixer Ellen lol, its so much easier! I have to get some of this Bergamot scent, I really love that smell. Thank you for the recipe, I will try the jojoba oil in my next batch.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Sweet almond and avocado oil would be so nice in this! Yes, a stand mixer is on my wish list for sure...
