I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and all the other channels making content like this! I'm looking into making my own skincare as much as I can for the sake of saving money, and I'm oh-so grateful for content that not only encourages minimal waste and environmentally conscious self care products, but also enables my cheap-skatery lol

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thank you so much! Don't forget to check out my blog (humblebeeandme.com)-I've been blogging since 2011 while I’ve only been on KZbin since about 2016, so there is TONS more content on the blog!

Airless pumps are my absolute favorite type of bottle.

[@helenabarrioshernandez3547]

I did this with extra virgin coconut oil and polisorbate 80, because I have a big jar that will expire on December. With 35° Celsius here in Mexico is just the right consistency. But I tried putting it in the freezer and omg, best cleansing balm ever. For my dry skin this is glorious, thank you Marie! ❤️

[@dianer6116]

Do not use virgin coconut oil because it clogs the pores of the facial skin, it causes blackheads. Virgin coconut oil is good for the skin of the body, never in the face

[@lingper4]

You should use non-comedogenic oils better

I tried making this last night. And I am surprised that it worked! I look like a kid getting a gift on Christmas when I saw that the oil turned milky when I applied water. Thank you for this video.

Hey please let me know that after using this cleansing oil on face there will be any need of using any liquid cleanser ??

[@Gerard-oo8os]

@@nimraismail8777 I don’t use any other cleansers after using this on my face. The ingredient that turns the oil milky kinda acts as the surfactant that gives the oil an extra cleaning power. But still, we have different skin. What works for me might not work for you. So, try things out.

Thank you for your video! I'm studying ingredients at the moment by comparing different products' ingredient lists. I realized that a lot of brands (especially Asian brands) are using rheodol 430v (sorbeth-30 tetraoleate) as an emulsifier in cleansing oil/balm, and some people say that's more gentle to the skin compare to Tween80（polysorbate 80）. Have you ever used rheodol 430v before? Also, that would be wonderful if you could share more info on the safetyness and effectiveness of different product😊

[@fauziabanu2938]

[@shannonvienneau]

Hi there!! Wondering if I added slightly more peg-40 if it would allow for potentially a denser oil and/or butter to be used along with the fractionated coconut oil or would it have an opposite effect? Thank you in advance 🙏🏻 I’m learning so much I love your content and as a fellow Canadian it’s great to know I can source all the ingredients easily 👌🏻

Hi! Your video inspires me to make my own cleansing oil. One question tho, if I got hydrogenated castor oil in liquid form, do I still have to heat it? Appreciate if you can answer ^^

[@clarewhite3004]

I'm gonna try making this with colloidal oatmeal today. I figure it'll be fine as a suspension, just shake before use, then the oatmeal will solubilize on contact with water. *Update: I had to go up to 15% on the PEG castor to get it to rinse off!

[@tdonithan863]

I use DHC oil cleanser but I am so thankful to you for posting. I am going to try this oil cleanser. Thank you!!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You are so welcome! ❤️

[@paulmiller7709]

Random question, so in a hypothetical formulation where I wanted to add polysoberate 80 to a lotion recipe that requires heating the oil and water phase. Would you add it to the oil phase or in the cool down phase?

[@imatterconsultingbyvukosim1930]

Hi, can I use oils like palm oil, vitamin E acetate and fragrance essential oil like sandalwood to add more skin benefits to the cleanser? Also, would I need to now add a preservative or I’ll still be fine without it?

[@jesikristopher9878]

Hi marie. So just made this oil to milk cleanser using fractionated Coconut oil and polysorbate 80 (liquid) . I followed the formulation but noticed a separation on the polysorbate. I hope i can get a response. Thank you. Btw super love your videos ❤️

[@kvanager]

Such an easy recipe! I can’t wait to try this!! Does it work removing waterproof mascara easily?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

It depends on the mascara; if you need more solvent power swap 20-30% of the fractionated coconut oil for some C12-15 alkyl benzoate :)

[@elisa.707]

Does it make any difference if I use coconut raw oil? Maybe will the formula be solid instead of liquid?

[@Wildheartbeats]

I wish you explsine6the layman's terms for all the chemical names like what really is hydrogenated oil or the other coconut oil and ehether we can use like virgin coconut oil

[@MsGolden333]

just made it! its awesome....thanks so much for sharing! do you think its worth adding some oil soluble botanical extract given the short amount of time the product is actually on the face?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

You could, but I'd keep it inexpensive since it's really just for label appeal. Happy making!

[@sarahmanogna1919]

Hi Marie I love ur content ❤... I wanted to make this cleansing oil, I have been using castor oil and jojoba oil for oil cleansing and it's a bit tedious to remove as it doesn't have any emulsifier I want to make it with Polysorbate 80 .. I read ur blog post as well once to confirm with u can i mix castor(35gms), jojoba(60gms) and Polysorbate (5gms) (no heat required) to make a 100gms batch? Ur reply would be so helpful

Hola podrías hacer jabón de leche de cabra y rosa mosqueta molde grande con los ingredientes .

[@-kohakuma-]

Thanks for sharing this! I've had the pleasure of owning different kinds of cleaning oils, one of which was a balm texture until warmed on the skin which meant it was easier to ship/store. Would the process be the same, just with an oil that is solid at room temp? Thanks !

[@eline_plug]

I’d also love this in more of a balm texture. Curious to find out if a solid-at-room-temp oil would work or just a completely different formulation including some sort of thickener. 😊 Also still wanting to try this formulation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZy2pauViZKFbqs

I recommend searching "cleaning balm" at www.humblebeeandme.com/search to see how I've formulated many different solid cleansing oils :) Happy making!

[@animalsquadofficial516]

Can we use castor oil?

[@stylingrace9799]

Hi is this a face cleanser or a face and body cleanser

[@funmilayoaina2658]

Lovely video marie. Made something similar with PEG hydrogenated castor oil, but noticed that it always settles to the bottom of the oil. How can one remedy this?

[@RachelDee]

Maybe shake it beforehand???

[@sweetflakes]

Same. Did you heat the peg-40 castor oil? I didn’t bcs it’s already “melty” (although not completely liquid) since it’s very hot where I live so that could be the reason?

[@hipretty]

So you would not need a second cleanser with this? Thank you!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

It depends; I use this just for my eye makeup and use a gentle cream cleanser for the rest of my face afterwards.

[@aahanaveeramachaneni9656]

Can we use mineral oil instead of fractionated coconut oil/ carrier oils( plant oils)?

[@anaroisskelyle2472]

Hi I've heard stuff about polysorbate possibly giving cancer! what do you know about this?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

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, water before it's been treated, and grilled meats), but the risks are well known and extremely carefully controlled. You can learn more here: www.cosmeticsinfo.org/ :) Happy making!
