I have been with my small business for approximately 6 months, I have everything stored in the kitchen and it is becoming chaos because there are more and more things and now that I see your vlog I feel very motivated in the short term to have a space especially to spend and manufacture all my products. Thank you Tara you are a motivation🥰

[@lizziehiggs5111]

This has to be my favorite type of video second to learning and info. Gets me out of that stagnant "planning phase" and gets me up and creating. Ty Tara Lee💖

[@yettyperry1088]

To dissolve the salicylic acid for toner. Heat it with propylene glycol or propanediol. It would dissolve then add water. It'll re-crystalize cause of the ph. So all you have to do is increase the ph and its going to be clear back. You can start with 1% salicylic acid and 10% solvent.

[@melodyadenium]

This is amazing. Your process is so efficient, sanitary, and professional---in such a small space! I love it when small businesses show this type of transparency in the manufacturing of their products. It makes brands like yours quite trustworthy :)

[@suki9487]

Yesss to more vlogs! I like them too :)

[@TaraLeee]

Yay! Glad you love them!!😊

[@ButterflyGoddessMoe]

Love watching this! Definitely all the mixing!

[@JohannaGodisGracious]

Tara this is great I would love to see more videos like this!!!! Thanks for all your help your so kind to share everything you do!!!!!❤

[@araiachanel]

I absolutely love how informative you are with cosmetic making. I make natural hair products and I wouldn’t know about 50% of things I do now if it weren’t for you. 🙏🏽❤️

[@mdavidson952]

As a formulator myself, I learn so much from your videos! Your knowledge is amazing! Especially creating in your lab. Would love to see a detailed video on an emulsifier, specifically how long you heat the phases (I’ve heard 20mins or longer- within 10 degrees of each other. and how long you blend for to get the right consistency. Always a tricky step. Thanks so much!

[@theholisticbeaute]

I enjoyed this! I LOVE seeing behind the scenes. It shows the heart of a formulator. Thank you for the table. I need to order 1 or maybe 2!

[@elimmu]

I LOVE these type of videos! Please do more!

[@boop7313]

So enjoyable to watch. Thanks Taralee

[@dekishagreene6057]

I love your videos, you are so organised. Your my inspiration. Keep these kind of videos coming.

[@serahbay8864]

i think it's so amazing and admirable that you're so generous with your processes and formulations with your audience. most people wouldn't share their 'secrets'. i've been binging your videos, and you're lovely and so talented! ALSO, has anyone ever told you that you both look and sound like Billie Lourd?

[@sozania6615]

Your work is amazing really its been two years now since I followed you and really much have changed , well done and keep it up

[@gracekelly3417]

You’ve just made me realize why I don’t want to scale up. I prefer creating over manufacturing

[@prudencelesibe9072]

[@Brainjoy01]

congrats on the success and growth Tara I knew it was coming it just took a sec

[@TaraLeee]

Thank you so much!!!

[@bmpsmamii]

Thank you so much. I'm thinking of starting a little business and your video is very helpful. You explain everything in detail and your video is easy to understand. I'm not to smart with stuff like this. again I thank you.

[@queenailah83]

I have the same mixer that you have. Just create a vortex with your water and sprinkle the HA in the breaker. It thickens up immediately! ❤️❤️

[@Ashleyunfiltered]

Yess. Do more Vlogs like this and updates on new things

[@sheronbrewer4255]

This was interesting going along your journey with you, quite enjoyable. I'd like to see a video of you using the overhead mixer!

[@shernelle1398]

I Love watching your videos, such an inspiration. i recently decided to start formulating and came across your videos which are such a huge help..

[@YayaDIYCreations]

This is so inspiring!! Please keep the vlogs coming! 💜💜💜✨✨✨

[@TaraLeee]

I’m glad you found it inspiring 😊 I’ll be sure to keep them coming

[@munasss]

You’re honestly amazing💕💕

[@helenav8108]

I've made a 2% salicylic acid toner. I dissolved it in propilene glycol (48%) first, that way it went into the water. Haven't tried with other proportions to the propilene glycol, but that's a baseline if you wanna try

[@helenav8108]

It takes some time to dissolve, but the end result is worth it

[@deeli8790]

I am letting you know. . I LOVE YOUR VLOGS!!!💛♥️

[@imanebouziane5618]

thank you Tara very much you are my big motivation

[@hollyhobbyist1659]

Love the vlogs!

[@hollydavis06]

Funny, l legit just bought two of the same exact tables for my lab space. I had to level out the legs of mine...but all in all-I agree they are pretty good for the price :) And wow, you got a TON of formulating done, girl! Love your videos...you are amazing.

[@Light_Worker]

I was wondering where did you learn all this instruction recipes for skin care ? Obviously you were not born with this knowledge but someone someone who was in this industry tough you a great lesson. Thank you

[@ireneweah6436]

Because of people like you I have been selling soap for 2yrs now but where I live in Liberia Monrovia West Africa we are having challenge with getting essential oils and the soap whitener that helps make the soap pure White. But soaping is now my life. Help me out until then someone anyone

[@tico25]

Good luck...yessss open....bendiciones Siempre..

[@TaraLeee]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@pierrettemokako2357]

Sometimes after dissolving the salicylic acid it recrystallizes so u could add sodium lactate to prevent that.overall salicylic acid is difficult to work with I won’t lie and the best solvent for it is propane1,3diol or propylene glycol

[@Mericel1]

I was so excited to see someone use all the sanitizing steps and the use of as clean as possible techniques in a home formulation studio. I am a old infection control nurse. You are probably the person to ask my question too. I am getting ready to move from home formulation to production for sales. How should I sanitize my packaging glass jars, roller containers and balls, lip tube containers, plastic jars and bottles. I am just try to do it right. Thank you.

[@liawol3593]

I'm no expert, but I've seen others making a mix of 5% bleach in a water bath.

[@shamangiyavenus]

You can also buy sanitizing tablets to be dissolved in a gal of water, I like to do that with all of my stuff before formulating and then I go back with a bowl of soapy water when everything is packaged, and wiping with alcohol before putting on the labels.

[@liawol3593]

Excellent. I only make basics for myself & I still want a room like yours!! : D

[@juamiglio]

Have you thought about an induction burner, potable gas burner or electric burner/hot plate so you don't have to run to the kitchen? You have a little more surface space now.

[@effycavania9023]

I love watching your vlogs 🙆🏻‍♀️💛

[@victoriaveeart]

[@TaraLeee]

I’m so glad you love the vlogs! & you will definitely be there one day 😊

[@Sunflowerthescientist]

Octyldodecanol is a good solvent for salicylic Acid.

[@NikiCheeks]

I love your videos! Thank you very much. You have taught me so much. How do you store your products when you let them sit overnight?

[@deepikasoapfantasy]

I have become your fan now ☺️ so cool you are ❤️

[@meonly3650]

Im doing same product.. ohh thankyou tara

[@claubeni1]

Hi Tara do you have videos for making room sprays with some fixative so it would last longer the scent?? Thank you Claudia

[@JadeBreannaArt]

Just want to see a house tour !!!

[@chascatt]

Looks like you have alot of distilled water taking up room. You can get a vevor counter top distiller for less than 80 bucks on Walmart. Com. It will save space. Save money and save plastic.

[@cropfarmer8838]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@iLoveTurtlesHaha]

I like your setup but I can't duplicate it exactly because I'm not sure I'll be able to scale with it. My setup is leaning more towards a bakery setting with bigger mixers that are stationary. I would love to have a lab like setup for testing and formulating new recipes though.

[@Ladyinformative]

I want to let you know that I’ve been buying every ingredient you suggest for my business and I have a ton of notes from your YT (50 plus pgs) and patron. I wish I could pay more instead of the $5

[@TaraLeee]

awwwh thanks so much for enjoying my content. i’m so glad! on patreon you can actually do custom donation amounts. so even though the tier only cost $5 you can customize it. you probably have to change something in the settings of your pledge, but there is no need to. i’m so lucky to have people be a part of my patreon 🥰 i couldn’t ask for more.

[@oyaorlova5815]

Loved the video, thank you! I'm launching my skincare line in a couple of months and I can imagine the whole production process much easier now, thank you! The only question I have is about the scale- I need to get one, but can't decide on the range; should be it from 0.01 to 2000? More? Less? Should I just get two instead? Any info would be appreciated. Keep up the good work :D

[@garciabreu]

i miss this vlogs.

[@calestak6579]

Love your apron! Where did u get it?

[@beelover2827]

How exactly do you do the whole heating and holding method for for formulations? I’m having trouble with it because my oils heats so much faster tan my water ingredients

[@munasss]

Do more vlogs!!!

[@CosmicCocoa]

Hey Tara, I've been looking for a large glass bowl. Where did you get yours?

[@Kaylacoleman1985]

How long do you let the cool down phrase sit & also how long you let the oil and water phrase boil.

[@cutemagnets]

Hey Tara, and everyone else. Have you ever used silica for cosmetics? I'm wondering what the role of it is other than an abrasive/ absorbent/ anticaking agent. I thought maybe it could be used as an emulsifier but I haven't been able to get my formulation to work with it :/

[@Ekant_Vlogs]

I love to watch ur all videos...I have started learning formulating products...and I must say that I am learning a lot from u. Thank you so much.....can you please share receipes of products which u have made in this video.... eagerly waiting

[@nataliedodd6826]

How do you account for any leftover ingredients in the beaker when calculating amounts? especially oils that normally leave residue...does this matter? Or the difference is so tiny you just ignore it?

[@melodiadelatorre2832]

You are so amazing and informative and I am so thankful for you! Random question, what Is your sun sign/moon sign/rising sign? I am so curious. lol you may not be into that but I HAD to ask.

[@samanthageelal1333]

Great vid girllll.... Love ya tara

[@MyNameIsAshleyyy]

I know this is an old video, but how long is the cool down phase before adding the preservatives when needed?
