If you’re going to make your own cosmetics often, please please for your own piece of mind invest in a magnetic stir plate with a heating element. That way you can pop a magnetic stir bar into your beaker and then pop the beaker on your heating/stirring plate. It’ll homogenize everything and you can turn on and off the heat and stirring separately on most such plates. Some even have a scale built in so you have to do zero work besides turning knobs and actually adding the ingredients.
Hi Marie, I was wondering if I can use oil base food coloring like Wilton (for baking )?Can I also use use Lorann Oils for adding flavors on my lip gloss? Thank you and I hope to hear from you.
Hi Marie I made some lipstick base but it had a smell that made me sick …so I threw it out Do U have a recipe that will come out right and without a smell Thank you
Thanks for watching!

@@HumblebeeAndMe thanks so much for the reply ! I am formulating a lip oil and I need to find an alternative to polyamide-3 because it's very difficult to find, at least where I live. Is there another ingredient that gives the thick effect for my lip oil formulation?
You'll find the answer to your question in the "Substitutions" section of the partner blog post. It's linked in the description box below the video ;) If you're not sure what that means, read this: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/whats-the-description-box-on-youtube/. Happy making!
Hi Marie! So I'm trying to find my base Lip Oil formula. I'm using Castor Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil and Jojoba Oil, along with color Pigment and Polyamide 3 from TKB and Vitamin E. They turned out great, but I just noticed yesterday that all the pigment settled on the bottom of the tube. I've been trying to research why that happened and I read your blog as well, but I can't seem to understand why that happened. Any suggestions?
Thanks for great video, I want to ask if you have a book or a coarse specialist on facial cream specially for oily skin (I read making aromatherapy creams and lotions by Donna Maria) but I want more knowledge about other ingredients like cetearyl alcohol, allantoin…. Thanks in advance
I don't have a paid course or book, but I do have literally 1000+ formulations available for free here on TH-cam and on my blog, www.humblebeeandme.com/. You can learn TONS about ingredients for free in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) ❤️ Happy making!
Polarity differences; I recommend looking up PA-3 in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) to learn more about it and PA-8 (opal wax). Happy making!
Hi Marie! Thanks for another great video! I was wondering: what could be some good substitutes for Polyamide-3 other than Cera Bellina? In my country I can't easily find them and was wondering if Xanthan Gum could do the job! Could you help me? :D
Hey! Have you read the encyclopedia entry on PA-3 yet? There is a ton of great info in there, including on substitutions. Subs are also discussed in the post in the context of the specific formulation. The short answer is that there aren't many good substitutes (🙁), and xanthan gum (or any kind of gum) will never ever work as an alternative to PA-3 as it is water-soluble. Happy making!
I just bought your book. I can’t wait to read it 🎉
Can someone tell me if cinnamon and peppermint flavor oil will have the same plumping affect as essential oils?
Gorgeous containers! Looks like a great project.
Thanks so much! ❤️ These containers are some of the best wand/doe-foot ones I've ever tried-they're from TKB Trading (gifted, but I'd pay for them!).
@@HumblebeeAndMe I remember you saying TKB in the video. I’ll have to look them up! Thanks!

Mine was $120 and it’s incredibly portable cuz I just need a flat space and a power outlet and it has a built in scale, it’s from vevor.
Hello, do you have a recipe for solid perfume using fragrance oil? Maybe with weight instead of volume
There is no need to include a preservative; learn more at www.humblebeeandme.com/faq/preservatives/ :)

Hi Marie! Do you think a 2% polyamide-3 would be good for extra viscosity without it being too viscous to get form the bottle?
You'll have to try and see!
hi how to add a scent to the lip oil? thanks!
what wax can be used insisten of poymide3
Would you get similar results if you substituted the polyamide 3 with versagel?
No, versagel is nowhere near as potent as polyamide-3.

@@saintesubs check out the lip oil formulas I shared in August + the partner blog post ❤️ HEAPS of info on formulating lip oils + 3 formulas 😀
Hello !
Thank you for this recipe.
I want to add some Lanoline (the one you described buying at the drugstore)
What do you think?
Give it a try!
Thank you for your tutorial. Do you have tutorial about stick foundation for dry skin?
Nothing in a stick, but this stuff is great: www.humblebeeandme.com/make-face-makup/. Happy making!

Can I use ceteareth 25 as a substitute to polyamide 3, as I can't lay my hands on that
No, they do totally different jobs :( Ceteareth 25 is an emulsifier, PA-3 is a thickener/film former.
I really need to order some of that dispersed carmine... it irks me, when I see ingredients I don't have :D
Thanks for sharing the formulation :)
It is very useful! Thanks for DIYing with me, and happy making :)
Is adding the Carmine necessary? Can we exclude it if we don't want color in our lip oil?
Yup, go ahead and replace it with more oil if you don't want colour :)
I just got in my squeezy tubes in. Great timing

You probably need a bit more PA3 to boost viscosity and improve the suspending abilities of the formula :)
