RICH & CREAMY DIY Emulsified Body Butter with Almonds & Oats | Perfect for Winter!

[@michelepryor2777]

Thank you for being so...informative and detailed! You really helped me understand the body butter language.😃 This will truly help improve my body butters. I really appreciate your help.

[@JenSpice]

Honey Almond and Oat soap is one of our best sellers. I will have to try this out and see how I like this emulsifier. Thank you Marie! You are the best at introducing me to new ingredients---now to start formulating! ❤️Jen

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I'm sure you will love it-it's so flexible and fun! ❤️

[@CindyRussi.]

Oooh I love how this looks. I can’t wait to make it. I like the more simple ingredients too 😀❤️

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thanks for DIYing with me, and happy making :)

[@jillgross3968]

Yum, I love the smell of almond oat! I think I'd choose to use cocoa butter, it does awesome things for my skin. It looks like a great formulation! Perfect for our blustry fall weather here in the lower 48!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Enjoy autumn & do let me know how the cocoa swap turns out ❤️ Happy making!

​@@HumblebeeAndMeis this can be use in face ?

[@ayalightfire4030]

This must be one of my fastest turnovers from seeing to making. I just realized I had (almost) everything and started making it. It's currently cooling and bring stirred... So far I'm very happy. Hopefully the missing panthenol (really need to get some) and the added benzoin won't screw me over :D

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Wow, that was super speedy! I'm so glad you are enjoying it so far-the benzoin addition sounds lovely ❤️

[@jillgross3968]

It shouldn't!

[@pattycarljackson]

Colloidal oats and i are add for in each other and i love everything colloidal oatmeal. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, balm, sunscreen, deodorant everything has colloidal oats in them. Plus i use the aveeno 100% oat bath to lather on my face and beard area as a mask and its amazing. I made this and i screwed something up haha.

I'm in love with this one! This one is a keeper. Thank you Marie!

Thank you so much!

Hello! Thank you for the great video. Can I use ceterayl alcohol emulsifier and phenoxythanol preservative?

[@ranjankukreti8541]

Hi, Can I not use emusifying wax BP instead which is a blended emulsifying wax which contains cetearyl alcohol and surfactant Sodium Lauryl Sulphate

[@nsingh2155]

Many of your other formulations involve blending for 3-4 mts in first instance and then cooling & blending again. Any particular reason this one was 45 seconds only? Thanks for this beautiful formulation 💕

[@sensimania]

You don't need to blend until cool down (unless the supplier info says otherwise for a particular emulsifier). You just need to do an initial blend so that the lipophylic and hydrophilic particles become tiny enough to combine together. I've always blended for the first 40-60 seconds and then I leave it to cool (with occasional stirring with a spatula). The emulsion never breaks

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I've been experimenting with less blending again (started there years ago... going back!) and liking the results :) You can almost certainly blend far less than 3-4 minutes for everything I share, I think I've been a bit over-enthusiastic in that regard. Happy making!

[@nsingh2155]

Thanks a lot.

[@nsingh2155]

Sounds good. Thanks dear

[@fatimahabdullahi3970]

Hi Marie, can I use only stearic acid for this recipe?

[@jenniferohjennie]

I've seen a few formulations with colloidal oatmeal, do you think buttermilk powder could also work well? As I use this in my milk bath product.

[@johanna5844]

Beautiful! 😍

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thank you! 😊

[@nccrchurchunusual]

Hello I bought your book and like it, learning stuff by reading it. I had hoped it had a deodorant formula- no luck. Have you made deodorant? I love Pitpaste but it's like 10 bucks for small jar. I tried to mimick it, but it doesn't work as well. Thx for all the info.

[@Fiiscreativemoods]

Another body butter yay! But tell me can calloidal oatmeal be made at home and how.

[@clarewhite3004]

It's kind of a powdered extract, and it can't be made in a typical home kitchen. Finely powdered oats are often misleadingly labeled as colloidal oats. Aveeno is legit and easy to find.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thanks for watching! Clare is correct; learn more about colloidal oatmeal in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) :) Happy making!

[@AuntieTriza]

Pretty please could you add to your list of requested videos, to do one on the mixing aspect of lotions/creams/butters - why the need to use a hand held blitzer over just manual stirring... why for example, in this one, the initial blitz was enough before finishing wih manual stirring.... why some formulations require time in the freezer between mixing.... why the need to wait til a lotion cools between blitz sessions .... what if my lotion gets thick after one blitzing when a formulation video of yours does 3 blitzes before it starts to thicken ... can a formulation be over mixed.. etc etc. 🙏😊

[@clarewhite3004]

I only blend my lotions 1-2 times and I prefer to package them when they're still a bit warm and easy to pour (I use optiphen plus a lot and it can go in while it's still warm). I've only had a lotion separate on me once; that one reemulsified with some vigorous shaking and is still emulsified weeks later.

[@AuntieTriza]

@@clarewhite3004 Interesting thanks. I see Marie often does 3 or 4 separate blitzes but I rarely need more than 2. And if I do, especially to a body butter, it seems to look overwhipped and split. Maybe climates have an impact too.

[@annafromme9963]

Is it possible to create a whipped emulsified body butter? I have never seen it done before, and I want to make one.

[@Teeconsultingg]

Hey I don’t have peg In my region. But I have glycerol steareate , stearic acid and cetyl alcohol. Can I increase the cetyl alcohol to make up for it? Or what do you suggest

[@raissajardim1648]

I have the same question. Cant buy peg here

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Hi! Have you read the blog post and recommended further reading? All your questions are answered there :) The short answer is "no", but the long answers are in the blog post. Happy making!

[@raissajardim1648]

@@jillgross3968 I know, I spent lots of hours reading it. Marie is awesome. I just wanted to know if this will work without peg, if somebody did it and succed it, since its not an easy to find emulsifier. 😊

[@mermaidbeaute6823]

I like so much body butter

[@skglossylips9244]

Loved this video. What would be a good preservative if you are using honey and colloidal oatmeal in a body butter?

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Liquid Germall™ Plus (INCI: Propylene Glycol, Diazolidinyl Urea, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate) is great :) I assume you're referring to an emulsified body butter like this one? Honey won't blend into an anhydrous one. Happy making!

[@skglossylips9244]

[@OhMyCat666]

Hi, thanks for sharing the receipt, it’s look amazing, but can I ask about from where I can get oat protein? Thanks

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I always link all the ingredients for any given formulation in the blog post, which is linked in the description box below the video (that's one of the many reasons I highly suggest reading the blog post as well as watching the video! If you're not sure what I mean by the "description box", read this: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/whats-the-description-box-on-youtube/.). Sometimes those links break because they're always off-site links, or sometimes the store I've linked to isn't in your country. That's why I also have a giant page of places to shop all over the world, which you can find here: www.humblebeeandme.com/resources/. It doesn't have every country in the world, but it does contain all the online stores I know about. If your country isn't listed, that's because I don't know about any online stores in your country. You could try looking for a local Facebook group for people who like making soap & other cosmetics-they may be able to recommend places to shop. Happy making!

Do u use distilled water or de-ionized water? At my place most people sell De-ionized water. They say it can be used for making Cosmetics. While distilled water is rare and also too costly with some suppliers? Can I use deionised or dimineralised water?
