How to Make Alpha Arbutin & Hyaluronic acid Brightening Serum; Treat Dark Spots & more

[@wjeffers77]

It's crazy how some skin care companies put their advertisings right above small businesses like Tara Lee who is really trying to help other people with their business instead of trying to steal their viewers to help grow their business; y'all probably know what company I'm talking about. Tara your doing an amazing job and continue to strive and grow your business. 🥰

I have been lost in life until I ran into your KZbin. You have motivated me more then anyone ever has! I love all of your videos and I have been watching and re-watching them all. I have a whole notebook of notes from just your videos. You have taught me so much and you are amazing at talking us through everything. I'm starting my own Beauty Bar with my mom and you have helped us out so much with all of your videos. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy life and explaining everything you do for us :)

[@amarpreetmehta7]

Tara first of all thank you for putting out such genuine information out there. i make CP Soaps and basic lotions but i have learnt so much from your videos that if i ever get stuck on something i simply type Tara Lee and i know i get get an understanding on ingredients and their purpose and usage. keep doing your good work

[@YayaDIYCreations]

HI Tara!! So happy to see your video! A must try! 😊💜

[@TaraLeee]

Hey Yaya!! Thanks so much. Hope you are doing well 😊

[@YayaDIYCreations]

@@TaraLeee Much better. Same for you!😊

[@Rottimail]

I like thinner serums as well!! When I make my retinol serum (14 gr.), I add 0.10 gr. of hyaluronic acid powder as opposed to 0.15 gr. of hyaluronic acid powder. It feels so wonderful on my skin and I believe from the result I see that it absorbs better when it is slightly thinner.

[@tazthornton5238]

Omg 💗 I never heard of alpha arbutin. But just listening to you I love.. need something for dark spot but not lighten my skin tone. A perfect 🥰 Facial Serum 😍

[@TaraLeee]

I’m glad I was able to introduce a new ingredient to you 😊

[@clarewhite3004]

I made my first HA-thickened serum this week, and I used LMW HA. It made the serum thick enough to not run out of my hand immediately, which worked fine for me. I used snail secretion extract and green tea extract. I've never tried predispersing the HA. I might have to do it!

Tara, I have seen people measure ph by taking a small portion of product as you do but they add distilled water to it before measuring ph. Why would they do that? Is it done with some products and not others?

[@TaraLeee]

That is because their ph meter can’t take the ph of semi solid products like creams and lotions. That is how I used to do it before I got a ph meter that measures ph of semi solids. I discuss it in this video here and compare the two ph meters kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZfSi2l4aZWBibM
