Omg I just want to say thank you for this recipe I switched the emulsifier that you use to btms 25 and I absolutely loved it. I made a test batch yesterday of it and it’s still just as creamy as it was yesterday and feels absolutely amazing on the skin. ❤❤❤❤

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

I'm so glad! Thank you for letting me know!! 💕

[@Sherrie_Martin]

Can’t wait to make this sugar scrub. You inspire me Tammy!

Nice! You must be so happy 🤗 It looks like a great recipe.

I was pretty happy with the outcome! On to my orange, and then cranberry, and then who knows LOL

I love this emulsifier so much! A little more pricy but I think it is worth it!😊

[@NezumiSoaps]

Sugar scrubs are amazing. I STILL need to give this a try. Yours really seems so lovely💕

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Thank you Shonna!! They turned out pretty good this time!♥ You should give them a try!

[@sabrinastreet2390]

Frosted Cranberry from Bramble Berry is good too

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

I looked for that and didn't see it, I wonder if they stopped carrying it?? I did already purchase Cranberry Fizz from WSP and OOB it smells wonderful!

My pleasure!😀

That looks amazing 😍

Thank you sweet Alex!! I'm super proud of these 🤗💖

[@bonitami_amor56]

This seems like an awesome recipe. Do you think I could incorporate soap base in this recipe?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Hi Bonita, I think the soap base would be more of a stand alone ingredient, so you would not need the emulsifier or thickener if you used a soap base. Just use the base and add about 5% of your total in oils (25-30 % soap base, 50-60% sugar, 5% oils, 1% FO, and the preserve). Hope that helps!

[@bonitami_amor56]

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique thank you so so so so much! You're awesome!

[@MsGolden333]

Thank you for sharing this recipe. I made this and I love it. I too was looking for a less crumbly emulsified scrub and this it it. In trying to get this texture I was making a batch of body butter and just adding some BTMS50 and a preservative and sugar. Which is still nice but I find it leaves my shower floor too greasy. Your recipe is great. Thanks again!

[@MsGolden333]

One quick question...if I did want to tweak your recipe and add more moisturizing properties in the after feel could I just add more butter or oil? Would I need to change anything else? Thanks!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Oh!!! Thank you for letting me know! That just makes me so happy that you tried and liked the formula!!💖💖💖

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

That is a good question...I would say adding more butter may help with that. You might have to add a bit more poly to keep the oil slick down. Another subscriber advised I try an ester for my cream, I thought I would try that with this one too. I haven't ever worked with them before, and they are pretty expensive, so I'm not sure this would be the best application for it. You could also increase the IPM, I love how that feels. Please let me know if you make any changes and your thoughts on them! I might want to try it too!🤗

[@thesoapcrate596]

If you want a more earthy Cranberry, I have the Cranberry balsam from Natures garden and we love it!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

I'm not home right now but I think I may have gotten that with my last order...can't wait to use it! Glad to hear that you like it so much!!

[@youarea.]

You had me at cranberry!!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Right!?!?! I love cranberry! I found one on WSP, cranberry fizz, that I am excited to use

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique now I'm done in. I think I need it too!

[@GarlindaPrice]

Hi Tammy, what would my start up costs look like to launch my body scrub and body cream business?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Oh gosh, that is a really hard question to answer! I may do a live for new startups, stay tuned for the day and time for that! I’m hoping in the next week or so

[@monarazo4404]

T.y. I'm may try this

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Great!! I hope you love it!

[@preciselyavri7944]

where did you get those containers looking for some low profile wide mouth ones like this.

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

here is a link - www.sks-bottle.com/340c/fin118i.html but these are out of stock. I didn't look at the other ones. If you look for "heavy wall" that is your indication that it is short and round and not tall and round. hope this helps!

Thanks! 💕💕

[@tddjimmie]

Hello. How did you end up liking the recipe a few days later? Did it hold up the way you were hoping it would? Did it become too "crumbly"? Did it get too hard after a few days, or did the consistency stay close to the freshly made consistency? If it didn't, what "tweeks" do you think it needs?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

I did end up liking it very much - it ended up being drier than last taping but it was not crumbly at all, but it wasn't so "loose" it was dripping off my hands. All in all, I won't be making any changes to the recipe, other than maybe swapping oils/butters here and there. Hope that helps! Let me know if you try it, I would love to hear what you think. That will help me become better too! 💖

[@tddjimmie]

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique ok, I sure will!

[@tddjimmie]

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique I tried your wonderful recipe, exactly as written, 7 days ago. It took about 5 days to reach a "perfect" texture. It's going to be hard to "re-jigger" it to make it my own. Thank you very much for sharing!

hi what is ipm ? 😊

sorry - my pronouncing of words can leave something to be desired so I use the abbreviation 🤣🤣🤣 - isopropyl myristate , it is a fast absorbing emollient

[@bettyspencer3120]

This is a video for pros because I am so confused! Which ingredient is the emulsifier? What is the polysorbate 80 used for? I'm new to this and I need to know the reason for each ingredient. I make my own sugar scrubs and they need something to hold them together. What do I buy? Mine is simply sugar, oil, fragrance, food coloring and sometimes lemon peel! Before I can get it on good, it's in the tub!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Hi Betty! Yes, this may be a bit advanced for you but let me try to help - the emulsifiers are the glyceryl stearate peg 100 stearate and the polysorbate 80. The poly 80 is mostly used to keep the oils/butters from making the shower floor too slick (it's a safety thing). Your struggle is with the scrub falling is one of the reasons I created this formula so I feel your pain. An emulsified scrub is one with an emulsifier (obviously LOL) - it keeps the oils from separating from the sugars, so no stirring needed. Stearic acid gives the scrub more body and thickness. so you need the emulsifiers, stearic acid and butters/oils. You will also need a preservative, unless this is just for yourself and you are careful not to put wet fingers in the scrub. Everything else is optional. Good Luck!
