It is the work of skincare brand owners. They are always afraid of competition when someone kind like you is showing the whole world how to make lotion.
@@ninahart7879 these would be considered your cool down ingredients and you would add them in with the preservative once your lotion has reached around 100 degrees F. I have never tried a hand mixer but I bet it would work fine.
This is basically the same as my lotion receipe, I use Sunflower oil instead of Almond though, just in case my customers might be allergic. My lotion is one of my best sellers 😊 Just a tip to new makers, I pipe my lotion into my bottles when it's completely cold, that way I don't get any condensation forming 😊
I've been meaning to ask if you take custom requests for lotion, and how big of a batch it would need to be? I'm not out yet, it would be after the holidays. This video made me finally remember to ask.
My cinnamon hot cocoa Lotion that I purchased form you is absolute HEAVEN!!! I love it!! Thanks for all your videos I have learned so much, will be subscribing to your patreon page, its' well worth it!!
Griselda, I am so glad you are enjoying the cinnamon cocoa lotion, I absolutely love this lotion as well! Thank you for considering my patreon as well.
I have watched this video several times, I never looked at the likes and dislikes. I’m shocked there are any dislikes. Your videos are the best, and I’ve watched a lot of them. I keep coming back to you. You’re clean, easy to follow, you explain the process and benefits. And anyone worth spit, should appreciate this is your work, time and effort and be willing, even happy to pay you for your work.
Rita Gaffey thank you! I don’t understand a dislike on any crafting video! It’s odd to me. Some people don’t like that I didn’t give out the recipe. Some people didn’t like that I used water in this recipe, etc. i actually have never disliked any video ever! If I don’t like something or disagree with it, I stop watching.
You are so talented. I tell everyone in the Candle and Soap making groups on Facebook to subscribe to your youtube and patreon pages. Quite a few of them already do follow you and agree that you're the best. Thank you so much for your recipes.
Thank you as I am just starting to learn how to make my own lotions and soaps, etc. This helped me gain a lot of in knowledge as a beginner. Excited to continue to learn and start making my own. (I am hoping to open my own shop one day)
I have a small business and I was looking for a nice thick cream to replace my current greasy body butter recipe. Thank you soo much! This recipe is amazing
Your videos and website is amazing . I am allergic to all store bought body lotions , soaps and things that has chemical in it . Only thing working for me was Dr.Bronner Castile soap . Dr. Bronner products is very good on my skin. After watching your video I thought I wanna give it a try and I just purchased some products .
💖💞So nice! I love Body Butters because they are used making some simple products. Now that I know Lotion can be done similar I may try some and see how i like it! Thanks for sharing!💞💖
This is my absolute FAVORITE recipe!!!! When I was a Patreon Subscriber (I will be again I had to make some financial cut backs) I found ALL of your recipes to be some of the best out there!!! This body butter is PERFECT every single time! I was curious, I actually had a customer say it was "too thick" which shocked me! Especially during our cold winters here in Michigan! That is my favorite part of this body butter! Is there a way to safely thin down an 8 oz jar for a customer without jeopardizing the product? Thank you in advance! Again, a great recipe!!!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words! Once the lotion is made, I guess you could add some liquid oil to it and use an electric hand held mixer to blend. You would also need to add more preservative to account for the added volume.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany Thank you so much Cory! I really appreciate your quick response! I am looking forward to rejoining your Patreon after the first of the year! Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family!!
I noticed you mixed the water at 100 degrees & oils at 125 degrees. Don’t they have to be only 10 degrees difference in temperature to have stable emulsification?
I like your videos, so informative, you are doing great but what happened to the end of the video where you was going to show the final consistency? Or is it in another video? Thank You.
Just watching this now for the first time…Love it! Could you make a video on how to make a batch this big? I’m ready to upgrade my process but I just don’t know what I’ll need. Also, you mention masterbatching unscented lotion and fragrancing it later. How do you do that? These tips would be great for the holidays! I’d love to make a big batch and then customize smaller amounts for my friends/family. Thank you!
Could Mango Butter be added also? I have stearic Acid and CA/20 is that ok to use? I don’t have rice bran oil in stock but I have Grapeseed oil, hempseed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Canola Oil. And 2 others I can’t think of from the top of my head.
Thank you so much for this. You are simply amazing at what you do. I've always wanted to make my own and now I will be able to do so thanks to your generosity in sharing your knowledge with us all. Also, wanted to tell you that your skin is beautiful!
Hi there, yes, I got almost everything here on amazon. Here is a link to my amazon store: www.amazon.com/shop/sunshinesoapandcandlecompany/list/3LD41ZRL8C39V?ref_=aipsflist_aipsfsunshinesoapandcandlecompany
I add fruits oatmeal and olive oil for fragrance, so if I worry about bacteria growth if sitting it out overnight, should I refrigerate my lotion oils?
Where do you storage all of your stuff because I’m going to start making a small business.Also,I love your videos because they educate me with all of things that I did not know about!
What would you add to make this more of a body Butter? I need something thicker that stays. I'm thinking jojoba maybe? Or Avacado oil? Some kinds of Moroccan oil?
Love it!!! Is there any substitute oils I can use in place of the sweet almond? I have customers that want me to make lotions but mention they have allergies to almonds, sunflower safflower etc avocado etc is there a way I can still make this recipe? Thank you !! 😊
Whatever happened to "cold cream"? You use to be able to purchased a large tub of it right from your local pharmacy. Women use to put it on their faces. How was it made and what was the composition? Can it be used today for skin care? Can we add ingredients into it to make a facial moisturizer for very mature skin? How would I make a vitamin e moisturizer?
I love watching your videos, you're doing such a great job explaining everything, thank you very much 🙏🏻, btw, is there a particular reason you use stearic acid and not something similar like cetyl and stearyl alcohol?
Great video. Very easy to follow and very informative. I will be signing up for your Patreon account. Just an idea, but an Amazon link to the ingredients you use would be awesome, and helpful for you too. Thanks again for a great video.
Sunshine Soap and Candle Company Yeah, we don’t have those here in Georgia. I got my smaller ones online on webstaurants.com but they don’t have the large one. I’ll have to search for them. Thanks!
i made my own lotion and kept it in the frig and although I was careful to sterilize, it was moldy in 4 days. i hate using preservative but it is necessary
I've came across ur channel just yesterday, been loving it so far! I'm gonna go ahead and ask if it would be possible for u to add the ingredients u've used in the comments/description, as I'm not a native English speaker and some of them are so specific to ur area that I can't quite catch what it was, no matter how many times I replay xD I'm from Brazil, btw :D Ty for the tutorials, I've never done any soap, but u're making me so inspired that I'm really considering trying it out, for I've never seen those for sale over here D:
You have to join her patreon page. The link is in the description box. She's sharing recipes for what she sells in her own business, so it's understandable that it won't be given away for free...and the prices are so low! Good luck with everything!
I am late to the party. I just started to make lotion using stephson lotion base which does not require anything but fragrance oils. My issue is it's kinda too thin. Any thoughts
How much of everything do you use… water… shea butter.. your carrier oil…. Do you use..? If you don’t mind me asking… thanks for the video. Very informative.
This was a very informative video, thank you for sharing! I love making my own lotion, and it's one if my best sellers. My only issue, and I've mostly embraced it at this point, is I must be getting air bubbles in my final product. It creates a mousse like, foamy consistency on the top layer of my container. Do I just keep embracing it, or is there a fix? Thanks!
holly powell lol, I know exactly what you are talking about! Yes, the fix to this is to combine your oils and water at a lower temp like around 100 degrees. It will become lotion a lot quicker. I think that happens when the lotion is thin and you keep mixing and then pour into your containers at a higher temp.
The solution to your problem is the use of an homogenizer. When making professional skincare products, avoid using hand blenders, it will pump in more air into your product ant his can destabilize your product and render it useless. The air bubble can also make mould grow in your products. Thanksto Sunshine Soap for the video
Could Coconut water replace the water part? Iv owned my business for 7yrs but new at Lotion making, im quite scared to be honest. I make Body Butters normally plus other Natural Body Products, Candles and Melts. You’ll know me a From Chillaxing Melts, Candles & Body Products But iv changed my business name
When you store your big batch in an airtight container for fragrancing as needed, do you store yours in a frudge at that point or just in an airtight container ad if it was on a shelf in a store? And how long do you think that big batch can stay as such.... as long as a bottle does on a store shelf with the optiphen? Just curious because I watch you a lot and have finally gotten brave enough to try lotions that I have tested through over and over and am ready to finalize the production part! (With your amazing help of course!!!) Thank you for all that you do and please continue helping the world be a better place with positive videos and positive smiles!
Hi Corey. If you don't mind me asking where did you purchase your bowls/buckets your using in this video and others as well? I have looked on Amazon and don't see them.
I love the look of your lotion especially as you have a good amount of Shea butter in it, Sadly coming from Australia joining all the different Patreon groups of my favourite soap and body sites would make a recipe extremely expensive to me so I never really get the recipes I love the look of.
I just want to say that I think that you are doing a great teaching job here and I appreciate your guidance very much, I just have one question, what type of scale do I need to purchase for making the lotion and candles.?
Brenda Hutcherson hi, thank you! You just need a digital scale that can weigh in ounces and grams and can hold about 15 pounds at a time. Mine is a Taylor brand
Hello. Thank you for such a thorough video. I would love to make my own lotion. Where is a good place to go for supplies? What’s a good site to use for calculations? TY ❤️
Hi nice video. How many ounces was your batch of lotion? How much preservative did you add to your batch? I have a hard time sometimes trying to figure out how much preservative to use in my products. What do you use to help you figure out how much preservative to use in your products? You mentioned that too much preservative can be harmful, that is why I want to make sure that I use the correct amount. I am always looking for a natural preservative.You are sharing some very informative information. You are doing a very good job helping others. Thank you
Can you tell me what is the name of the metal container that you use to melt wax and the little heater thing that goes underneath it? Not sure if its actually for melting wax but im so excited to get started and not sure if i should just go for a presto pot. I am a newbie and i dont want a double boiler. Thank you for all you are doing. ❤❤
