The Best Emulsified Scrub Recipe - How to Make Body Scrubs

[@florabescansaluers]

Tara just wanted to say we appreciate you! I joined your Patreon a couple months ago and it is so worth it 😊 I’m sure it was difficult making the switch from selling products to being a full-time KZbinr but I think you’ve done it with grace and finesse. Keep being you

[@TaraLeee]

Awwwh thank you so much! I am so glad you love the Patreon. That’s means a lot 🥰

[@JenSpice]

I went out and bought 20 kg of Ritamulse SCG thanks to you Tara, LOL. Love the way it works in a scrub. The source you gave was awesome! Way better price than the local suppliers I usually order from. Great value with your Patreon, thank you so much! 😊Jen Watching the end demo was like watching a sugar slime video!

[@fleurerebeille6109]

​@@Yosha555aww such cute comment! ^^ Don't want to speak for Tara but I think she mentioned from time to time youtube channels where you can learn stuff like that! One she follows and many of us that formulate follow as well is: Institute of personal care science. They also offer courses and diplomas! There are other youtube channels that offer courses and diplomas, but IOPCS is the most reliable in my opinion. Apart from courses and diploma, you can watch Tara or Humble bee and me and other creators that offer great info ^^ I hope it was useful! Enjoy your fomulation journey 🙂

How do you incorporate turmeric in this???

[@kerissajones7581]

@@Urfavgal_98 There are multiple ways actually you can add it with the sugar combined, you can use it at the stage you'd use mica, so it would be turmeric instead or you can Use the resealable tea bags and infuse the oil with the turmeric.

This formula looks so amazing. I need a scrub like this! Definitely will try and see how it works. I live in the Caribbean so it's worth a try to see how it holds up here. Thanks for sharing. Joining your patreon today!

[@lettsblend]

🎉 glad to finally see this video. I'm late, but I'm sure it feels incredible. It's similar to a scrub I used to make, but I've never used Ritamulse. I'll try that in my next scrub but instead, I'll make a turmeric scrub. Also, I thought that much shea butter would make it too hard, so im glad to see your results.I usually add sugar to the formula, so I'm interested to see how much of a difference it would make to the texture. I can't wait to try it. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Yup, but it will be harder, so I’d use a bit less. Like 8% and replace the other 2% with sunflower oil

You truly have a gift and a talent for what you do. Can you please clarify the amount of sugar used for the 1,600 Batch? Is it 800 g or 1,600 g?

[@TaraLeee]

1,600 like I said at the beginning. The formula is only a 800 grams but when you add the 800 grams of sugar it makes it 1,600 grams. It’s a formula I wrote a long time ago and I didn’t add the sugar into the formulas back then

Hey! When you say chill for 24hr do you mean in the fridge or just in the bench? Thank you!!

[@shaya_21]

I wonder if you use just a little less butter and a little more oil, will it not end up quite as hard 🧐 I’m tempted to try it out

[@raemclain8815]

I’ve found this scrub gets hard and crumbly after a couple days. Has anyone else had this happen and how do you correct it? It’s creamy at first but then hardens and crumbles.

[@TaraLeee]

yes it definitely changes consistency after a day or so being made. i believe i mentioned that in the video, but also i can’t remember cause i made it a while ago. but the consistency will be different depending on how warm or cold your environment is. if it gets to hard for you then that means it’s colder where you are. so you will need to lower the amount of hardeners used and increase the oils. i have an entire video about how to make body scrubs so you can learn more about customizing your own that will be perfect for your climate kzbin.info/www/bejne/pp_bnauVd9CVo8Usi=hPM3PBNnNhysOcZS

Are the Optiphen and fragrance supposed to be 1% and 2% of the whole batch? You say 8 g Optiphen and 16 g fragrance oil but it should be 16 g Optiphen and 32 g fragrance for a 1600 g batch I believe...unless the Optiphen and fragrance are supposed to be 1% and 2% of Phase A only?

Can you use BTMS 50 instead of ritamulse scg?

Yup that would work. It might make it harder though, so maybe use less. I’d do an experiment batch

[@balanaidoo1814]

Hey Tara❤ how do u add BHA,AHA and RETINOL into a bodyscrub or body butter????

[@TaraLeee]

I don’t think you could add a BHA or AHA to this since those are usually water soluble. Although I think salicylic acid might work in anhydrous recipes. I’d need to look into that. But you can add an oil soluble retinol into this. Just follow the suggested usage rate of the oil soluble retinol that is provided by the supplier.

I’m not sure as it depends on what kind you are using. Makingcosmetics.com sells a kojic acid that is water soluble so you couldn’t use it. But lotioncrafter sell kojic acid KAD which is oil soluble but it needs mixed with and water to dissolve with. This would change up the formula and result in a whole new product.

I recommend to start with one skincare product first like maybe moisturizers. Or whatever product you want and start studying the ingredients from your suppliers you shop from. That’s was how I first started understanding mass amounts of ingredients. I would look around different suppliers websites and see what they sell and read about each ingredient and study it and then. experiment with a few that I actually decided to buy.
