How to Make DIY Rose & Honey Rich Cream Cleanser

[@janyn.m.9633]

This also makes a beautiful eye makeup remover. Ladies this works like Pond's cold cream but better bc there is no fragance or unnecessary ingredients. I love this formula!😍

[@karenesposito488]

I made the rose and honey rich cream cleanser for my daughter. It works at getting eye lash glue off of your eye lids and taking off make-up. She loves it. She is a cosmetologist.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Hooray! I am positively thrilled to hear it :) Thanks for DIYing with me, and happy making :)

[@mary0004]

this is one of the best gentle cleanser . Few ingredients less complications.❤

[@happyGavy]

Thank you so much for creating small batches for those that are using for personal use.

You're very welcome! I would probably get lost in an avalanche of products in my home if I didn't 😂

Marie, I just want to thank you for your content and the work that you do. I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago (I think? Quarantine time passes at a weird rate...). I’ve always enjoyed watching skin care and makeup DIYs as a calming ritual, but your videos, blogs, and projects have actually inspired me to make things! Thank you, and I look forward to each new bit of creativity and wisdom you share.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Wow, thank you so much! ❤️ And I hear you on the quarantine time, lol... I feel like I'm only ever vaguely aware of the day of the week and month 🙈

[@katharosnaturalbeautyllc2247]

Thanks Marie for another great recipe. I ask you, it could be added any ingredient that provides some foam, to make it a little soapy? Maybe some surfactant?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Check out the Lavender Aloe Cream Cleanser I shared recently for guidance :)

Could we add a surfactant to this to make is lather and foamy or no? And which surfactant would it be and how much?

That should work! Check out the Lavender Aloe Cream Cleanser I shared recently for guidance :)

[@raadizon3442]

I have like 4 different cleansers already (all DIY), charcoal syndet, foaming cream cleanser, cleansing oil, foaming cleansing powder. 😜.. But I'm really itching to make this,

[@daneekaplan4284]

Isn't Ponds Cold Cream a lotion that cleans?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Yes! I believe cold creams are traditionally a water-in-oil emulsion rather than oil-in-water (as this one is),, but the general concept is the same 😊

[@nageshwarnaturalhomemadepr7341]

Shall we use iscaguard peg instead of germal plus liquid

[@akanshaagrawal3192]

Ma’am can you tell us how to preserve natural ingredients in a formulation..like lush adds natural fruits to its formulations..how to preserve and formulate such formulations

[@heviutza]

I think it's magic how they manage to do that! :)

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

That'll be a big quagmire of "it depends", unfortunately. Check out my satsuma body wash for some links on hurdle technology!

[@stancexpunks]

@@heviutza Lush uses preservatives containing parabens in many of their products actually like their best selling lotion dream cream and the product this video is inspired by (Ultrabland), except if it’s marked as self preserving. They do this by using a large amount of ingredients like honey that are naturally preserved, and less water. They also encourage you to use it very quickly, within a few months usually.

[@mahalakshmiayyangar5717]

I like honey in my hair conditioner as well. My hair feels more conditioned. But not sure if a preservative would be sufficient to preserve when honey is used in a conditioner.

[@alamatablessing8651]

This is probably late but I'll say use a broad "synthetic" preservative like germal plus or optiphen plus and then put it in a container that you don't have to dip your fingers in it.

[@notinuse5494]

If i want to add surfactant except SCI what can I use

[@chicalertng]

Great question! Was wondering same!

[@ellenvitoria6144]

So nice!!! I’m definitively going to try this for my sensitive but acne prone skin. Do you think it would be a good idea to add a little bit of Polysorbate 80 for more cleansing power?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I would try it as is first :)

[@ellenvitoria6144]

@@fabuloose15 yessss! I tried it the first time without it and the second time in a 3% concentration! Idk if it made any difference though, but I’ll keep adding it the next times because I have nothing else besides the cleansing balm to use it in hahahaha

[@stancexpunks]

Wait, this is supposed to be about Ultrabland right? I’m confused because Lush doesn’t list an emulsifying wax in their ingredients.. unless beeswax is the emulsifier? I think the beeswax is an integral part of Ultrabland and what gives it a slight waxy texture that stays on the skin after washing with water. Ultrabland ingredients: Almond Oil, Rose Water, Beeswax, Honey, Fresh Iris Extract, Glycerine, Rose Absolute, Tincture of Benzoin, *Benzyl Alcohol, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Benzyl Cinnamate, Methylparaben, Propylparaben

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

This formulation was inspired by the idea of using lotion as a cleanser, and that idea was inspired by Ultrabland; it's not supposed to be an Ultrabland dupe :) I did choose a couple of the same ingredients since I was looking at Ultrabland, but as you can see, I choose quite a few not-similar ingredients as well.

[@strawberry89girl]

please make a sugarcane lip balm like sweetchef made or like fresh sugar caramel lip balm (pot packaging)

[@smritibarman6620]

This is the same formulation for face cream, what's difference then ?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

There isn't really one-that's the whole point ;) Please read the blog post and watch the whole video, I talk about this quite a lot!

[@nurizzatizulkiflee9704]

Can i use beeswax instead of emulsifying wax?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

No, never. I made a video showing what will happen if you do: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpKYZ2xto8yVbq8. Happy making!

[@abeeraumar3049]

Hi, how to add powdered preservative in a lotion? I don’t have liquid preservative

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

It'll depend on the preservative; please refer to your supplier for proper usage info! You can also visit humblebeeandme.com/preservatives/ to learn more.

[@nhungtrinh8296]

Thanks so very much for your awesome work and sharing! I'm a newbie to this DIY and that is sth I want to further learn as I'm obsessed with it. You have made a whole new world to me. And I guess this cream could be used as a powerful makeup remover like the ancient cold cream. Just no beeswax in the formula. Does that give a greasy film on the skin?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thank you so much! There's no greasy film :)

[@raadizon3442]

Yeah the formula is a non surfactant cleanser, like a cleansing balm. Is this a rinse off product or can it be wipe off like a cold cream?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I usually prefer to rinse it off, but if wiping it off works for you, go for it! :) Happy making!

[@beelover2827]

What is your pirex size you use here?

[@nouranmohamed3823]

Hi Marie I wanna ask when do I need to mix my preservative with some of my product first and then stir all of that back into the master batch like you did here? and when can I just put the preservative to the whole batch and stir?

[@heviutza]

I do the same as Marie. I find it easily to incorporate and mix when i add a small amount of lotion to the container that has the preservative, to mix together well, and then put the mixture in the original container with lotion... I find it better to evenly incorporate, but i think it's just a matter of how you got used with.

I'm planning on trying this lotion, but I would like to use Geogard ECT preservative. I have visited your blog page, and it says the usage rate for this preservative is 0.6 - 1%. So if I was going to use this instead of Germall plus, what would I do? Example: would I add less oil and add more preservative, since I need a higher usage rate. Also could we add an exfoliant to this? Like jojoba beads? Thank you! I'm excited to make this soon!!

[@AB4Jss]

So which ingredient takes off dirt & oil from the face?

[@charonbryson]

Honey

[@elizabethrobbins8580]

Water

[@charlesward8632]

The oil in the cream binds with the oil, dirt, and makeup. The emulsifying wax allows the oil to mix with water so that it can be rinsed clean without leaving a residue.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Charles is correct :)

[@AB4Jss]

Thank you!

[@esraoranjordan1292]

Can i consider this product as night face moisturizer? And can i use it for oily skin?

[@raadizon3442]

The formula has high emulsifying wax and oil for the purpose of cleansing. This is similar to a cold cream.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

If you like it on your face as a leave-on, go for it!

[@queenailah83]

So this is a lotion that is labeled as a “cleanser”? I just want to make sure. Lol

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Yes and no, I guess? It IS a cleanser-it works beautifully to cleanse the skin, and if that's not a cleanser, what is? But it also works as a very rich lotion. We do this sort of labelling with all kinds of products! I've made "aftershave lotions" that very easily could've been a nice foot cream, facial serums that could also double as hair oils, lotions that could also be beautiful hair conditioners, and shampoos that also make great body washes. So much of how we perceive a product comes from what it is called, even though it might have a ton of different uses it would be equally suited to! Since we're talking formulation on this channel, I wanted to draw attention to that with this project :)

[@queenailah83]

Humblebee & Me thank you for this very thorough explanation! I make products also and this has actually inspired me a bit. I’m still learning so much about formulating and perfecting my products. This was such a great video!
