1 of my 3 face creams got mold. Same batch but I put them on different containers. I wonder if the other 2 will also mold.

[@sondostawfiq7955]

Thanks for the amazing recipe and for your hard work in teaching us 💙 Kindly, I would love to know what are the best oils to include in formulations that are for the skin, there are alot of different types and suggestions and I am kind off lost between which ones to choose 😅 I am planning to launch a body butter/lotion business and mainly decided to have avocado oil and sweet almod oil in them but I would love to have an advice from someone experienced in formulations like you, so any tips regarding this matter would be really appreciated 💕 Thanks in advance Marie 💙

I have always wanted to make my own cosmetics but now I feel like I need to start making them. I found an incredible hair conditioner butter a year ago or so, but sadly it has been taken off the shelves in Europe. I decided to recreate it and make it even more natural than the original. Some of the ingredients are unknown to me, though. Also, I need to research what ratio I should use to recreate the thing as I'm planning to make this conditioner for years to come, as it is by far the best conditioner I have ever had (and probably will ever have). So I don't mind the money and the experimentation that goes with it, I am on a mission here. 😄 Can you maybe add these ingredients in your encyclopedia? Adansonia digitata seed oil Irvingia gabonensis kernel butter Lavandula angustifolia (lavender) flower extract Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf extract Pyrus communis (pear) twig extract Chamomilla recutita (matricaria) flower extract Gardenia taitensis flower extract Thank you!

[@EstelleK2401]

Thank you for the insightful and helpful advice.

Hey there, I've just purchased your book. Do you have an affiliate link to Amazon? Do you start a shopping list that you laid out in the book? Thank you love your content🩵

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@Alien2799]

Thank you! So how do I know that I am adding too many ingredients?

[@CDGMR1]

My hand soap, shampoos and dish detergents keep separating oils and surfactants. You can clearly see the separation.

Would you mind if I asked where I can find a few of your goidies? 1) Your cutesy saucers for small ingredients 2) the small spoon/spatulas? They are a cutesy must have!

[@hollydavis06]

I hv found quite a few of Marie’s lab tools by doing a search for “laboratory supplies” or “small spatula” on Amazon…you will see a lot of these items are on there.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Hi! Check out the "Equipment" section of the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) for details and links :)

[@tabathacrexach]

@@HumblebeeAndMe Thank you!

[@MsBlack]

What are the max number of actives you would add to, a cream for example?

[@MsBlack]

or what is the total percentage of actives would you include in a leave on body product like a cream, for example. Thanks for all your help Marie!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I'm afraid this question doesn't have an answer-it's kind of like asking how many bites of food you should eat in a day. It depends :) Watch this video for more info: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zme2f6OYeJyJptU. Happy making!

[@MsBlack]

@@HumblebeeAndMe haha no worries. I enjoy experimenting. Thanks again Marie.

[@chuckSpy2012]

Ah, yes. The good old starter days where everything "good" goes into one pot of magical potion 😂

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I made so many not-so-magical potions 🤣

[@lisafox7518]

Hey can anyone recommend natural skincare school in the gta ?

[@TessieDobey]

Do you think a serum needs; hyaluronic acid + allantoin + glycerin + niacinamide to be really effective for wrinkles or dry skin!?

I tried to sign up for your emails, but there was an error.

[@xelykoyax2997]

Please help me, I have tried tu use Sodium Lactate in lotions but the lotion get separated, I have tried with different emulsifiers like BTMS 25, Cera Lanette NF and nothing 😢....which emulsifier do you suggest pls.

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Check out some of the formulations I've shared using sodium lactate for guidance/some ideas :) It's not just about the emulsifier, the whole formulation matters. Look up sodium lactate in the free Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) for a list!

Awesome thumbnail

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Thank you! I spent a looooooooong time on it 🤣

[@sylviayakubu6575]

Please do you have any formulation with varisoft

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I have two; look it up in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) and scroll down for links. That said, I think this ingredient is extremely mediocre. I don't recommend spending your money on it. It doesn't work anywhere near as well as BTMS or BTMC :(

[@sylviayakubu6575]

@@HumblebeeAndMe really I hard it works better for hair .. it really softens the hair & from the research have done it says same too … Woow

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

@@sylviayakubu6575 yeah, I found there was quite the chasm between what is said about it and how it actually performs. I’d stick with BTMS or BTMC.

[@eclatnat]

Hi Can you help me? I made a 2% salicylic acid serum with hyaluronic acid ,it was very clear but a few days later, it became yellow.i don't know why.have you an idea about? Thanks

[@sylviayakubu6575]

[@m_v_s497]

Like you add bearberry extract to your encyclopedia

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I'll keep it in mind-thanks for the suggestion!

[@MorganStradling]

Please add EMU OIL, OSTRICH OIL, CAPACHU BUTTER, and ROSE OTTO to the encyclopedia!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

I'll keep it in mind-thanks for the suggestion! Cupuaçu butter is already in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia-it looks like you've just spelled it wrong :)
