Hello Tara, this was a lovely recipe! I made it with just a few minor substations based on what I had/wanted like subbing the witch hazel extract for .5% allantoin and an extra 1.5% niacinamide since my main goals were hyperpigmentation/cell turnover more so than oil control (I find just niacinamide to do a decent job with a great face washing regimen underneath). And I wasn’t ready to buy new ingredients yet, so I used jojoba oil in place of the squareness, and siligel instead of gel maker NAT. Even still, the texture and moisture of this formula was amazing! Gelled up beautifully after a minute or two of mixing and glided across my skin like butter before soaking right in. This is definitely an amazing base recipe and I’m excited to play around with the actives and make some personalized moisturizers for friends and family. I’ll be sure to check out your other formulations because I’m so pleased with this one!
So I’m a person with oily skin this moisturizer is perfection. I really alter it but it’s amazing just about all your around for my oily skin. Thank you so much I have been using it for the last two years.
Gifted soul. This girl will go far in life. I listen to her as if i know her. I laugh when she laughs or smiles. Shes honest and very generous with her knowledge. God bless you. What her website anyone?
Oh my goodness. I have been trying to figure out to mame an oily acne moisturizer for my skin. I will make this and try it and give a review on it. Acne oily smin is a headache for me. I'm also a NEW smin care formulator. So this helps with a beginning formula. Thank You Tara Lee!!
hi tara (-: thanks for the video. i have very sensitive skin and have come to the conclusion to try to make my own products...here’s to hoping i can finally not react to my skincare products lol! your videos are helpful
Tara, this is a very nice formula. I make one that is similar I use Carbomber in mine. It took me a while to get it right. Carbomber is a tricky ingredient to work wuth!
@@TaraLeee that's so sweet of you ❤️❤️ thanks for your lovely efforts i do learn alot from you and also i love your way of making videos and products thanks for sharing ❤️❤️
I have very oily skin ( chronic oily ) and hyperpigmentation skin tone , I looking for gel moisturizer for my skin , I so impressed with this moisturizer, how can I buy exactly this gel moisturizer from u for my self Tara , Thanks
Awsome video, was looking forward to make this kind of formulation and got it on time, thank you Hi..I have easy accessibility to carbomer, but this ingredient gives a different pH , how do I adjust
Hi Tara, do we have to use niacinamide? I’m just wondering if the serum plus the niacinamide in the moisturizer is overkill? Oh I looovveee your videos!!!
Hi Tara as it has been 2 years since u made this moisturiser for oily skin, is there anything different u would do in this formula ? Any ingredients swap would u suggest ??
Hey Tara! You've inspired me to start formulating and I have so many questions😭 but first I would like to know about different emulsifiers and what each one does, how it affects final product etc. Why did you choose Gel NAT rather than Cetearyl Alcohol?
@@samanthageelal1333 thank you! I actually ended up watching the emulsifier/solubiliser video in the series and it helped out a whole lot. Thank you for replying! Are you a beginner too?
Hey Tara, I bought the « orange » ph meter that u recommend Would like to know when u test the ph of the product, do u press « hold » or « temps/cal » button?
you press the on button to turn it on and then dip it into the solution you are taking the ph of. I have a couple video all about this ph meter - th-cam.com/video/O8unU-zUy48/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/6y9WfLJQdYI/w-d-xo.html
TaraLee thanks , i watched your videos => if I understand correctly « only » press the « on » button to turn it on then dip it into the solution ? No need to press « hold » or « temp/cal » button?
Hi Tara, love your channel. Could I use emulsifying wax nf instead of gel maker nat? I know that I would then have to use a water bath to melt it and all of that.
Loved the recipe....but its difficult to get the willow extract....can u tell what can be the replacements for both the extract....also can aleovera juice be used ???
yes you can use aloe vera juice. I linked in the description box to where I purchased everything. You can use different extracts if you would like, but they won't have the same effects as these extracts.
@@TaraLeee I do not live in d USA so am not able to purchase from the websites u mentioned.....will try find ingredients available in my part of the world ....thank u so much ....since I have oily skin and sweat immediately after applying the mildest of the lotion ...I am so looking forward to this lotion...😊
Hello Tara, Thank you for the video! you are the best :) Can you tell me what best ingredient as a substitute for Gelmaker NAT? hard to find in where I live :( Thank yoouuuuu...
Hi Tara, if it can be used at day & night, doesn't it cause sun sensitive, since willow bark extract contains of beta hydroxy acid, that what i conclude from lotioncrafter website, thanks for answering me 🙏
Tara thanks for sharing but what is gel NAT? I tried to find it over here but I couldn't seem to get it. My face skin is very sensitive and I'm wondering what chemical I could use to make gel texture like? Just for your info my skin cannot handle petroleum jelly and hyaluronic acid. So any other options to make gel texture? Thank you
I am not as experienced a formulator as Tara and some others but I don't think Niacinamide would be nearly as effective in a rinse off product. Also there might be some PH issues in formulating it in soap. There are just much better ways to use it, I just would not use it in a soap IMO
you want to dilute 50% citric acid in 50% distilled water. Then from there you only want to add a couple drops at a time into your product. With experience it will come much easier
Where do you store cosmetics when they are not being sold and something like yogurt and fermentation ingredients they contain bacteria so how can I have those products and use preservatives ? Won’t the preservatives just kill the healthy bacteria that’s needed to make it work
Hi guys!! If u want to make gel moisturizer for oily skin(summer moisturizer) then watch the video of "gazal siddique gel moisturizer" i have been using that gel moisturizer for 3 months and trust that is the best moisturizer for oily or any type of skin... Incredients: 3 tablespoons cucumber gel 2 tablespoons aloevera gel 1 table spoons almond oil 4 tablespoons rose water 1 tablespoon glycrein 4 drops of any essential oil (optional) Mix all ingredients well here ur gel moisturizer is ready🙂
I made this many times myself, 4 or 5 times and it didn't thicken up. Finally decided to mix it longer and it worked. I mixed this way longer than any other emulsion that I have made before it thickened.
You use many ingredients those are hard to find and also expensive . It would be great if you use ingredients those are easy to find and not expensive .

Hey Tara! You've inspired me to start formulating and I have so many questions😭 but first I would like to know about different emulsifiers and what each one does, how it affects final product etc. Why did you choose Gel NAT rather than Cetearyl Alcohol?
You should watch her formulating series. It teaches a wholeeeeee lot and then u can ask her your questions
@@samanthageelal1333 thank you! I actually ended up watching the emulsifier/solubiliser video in the series and it helped out a whole lot. Thank you for replying! Are you a beginner too?
Cetearyl Alcohol isn't an emulsifier on its own. Generally used as a thickener/stabilizer
Cetearyl ahcohal is oil soluble when the fell maker is water soluble
Hi Tara, is AVC aristoflex got the same finishing like gelmaker NAT? I'm thinking of swapping it if it's got the same effect 😁
Hello. Thanks for your great contents. Can you please make a video of making beard wash?
Hi tara what other gelling agent can we substitute with gelmaker NAT
Hi Tara excellent video 😊 Are there any alternatives to Gelmaker NAT as it's not available in the UK? Thank you
You need to sort for polymeric emulsifier since the gel marker is one kind. Other ones are HPMC, Acrylate C10-30 ……….
Have you ever try to make your own 'extract' ??? Like oatmeal extract ??? Rose extract ??
Hey Tara, I bought the « orange » ph meter that u recommend

Can you make this without propendial?
Can I use xanthum instead of gel make NAT?
Would like to know how to determine the measurement of the citric acid to lower the ph of the product? In order to avoid lowering too much the ph
you want to dilute 50% citric acid in 50% distilled water. Then from there you only want to add a couple drops at a time into your product. With experience it will come much easier
TaraLee thank for your advice, it’s really difficult to lower the ph => always lowering too much 😭
Hai!

Thank you
Hey can you make a jelly face scrub? Like with sugar and those stuff in a jelly form I’ve been trying and it’s not working.
From where yiu buy chemicals
Hi Tara could i substitute witch Hazel extract and willow bark extract with calendula extract?
Calendula isn't going to do what Willow Bark does, willow bark helps with oily acne prone skin.
I would love if you can sell this on your Etsy shop. I would definitely purchase this from you.
I've tried this recipe twice and both times it never gelled...😢
Where do you store cosmetics when they are not being sold and something like yogurt and fermentation ingredients they contain bacteria so how can I have those products and use preservatives ? Won’t the preservatives just kill the healthy bacteria that’s needed to make it work
Hello Tara! I have a question. If I’m making a hair oil and want to add a oil soluble extract to it, do I need a preservative?
I'm not Tara =) But, no, you don't need a preservative if there are only oil soluble ingredients
LEll User omg thank you so much!! 😁😁
Hi Tara , this question is not relevant to this video, I know. I would like to know when we’re you confident to start selling your products
Lovee ittt
thank you so much! :)
Love 😍
We used this moisturiser only day time or night and also ph level checking is necessary?
I definitely recommend checking the ph since niacinamide is ph sensitive. You can use this moisturizer day and night.
