This is a fantastic and very informational Video. Whenever I infuse my oils with Lavender and or Helichrysum flowers, I use a pestle and mortar to pound them to release the oils and then I add my oil and then shake it daily for the next 7 weeks. I had no idea I could use a crockpot with warm water to cut down the time of when I can use the oil. Thank you so much for your wisdom and your skin looks great.
Lovely video. I like the fact that you explain as you go along and you write it as a recap so we can understand and yes there are many other uses for that infused oil.
I got the same rose gloves you have the same year you made this video😂 but I never actually used them! I prefer collecting the delicate flowers and petals with my bare hands...but I have been contemplating crafting my own forearm and fingerless hand sheaths because it is quite a painful passion. I for sure wear my battle scars every season😅❤. Lovely and informative video. Inspiring! Great instructions too🥰👌
just melt your wax and add lavender and rose esstential oils. weight the wick in your container. fill container. then fill in at the end when you get the well around wick. EASY WAY. buy a candle and add rose and lavender essential oils to a purchased candle. :-)
@@christienvanrensburg5512 love South Africa...hope to go on a photo safari one day...oh the healing plants you must have there!! Sorry for late reply!!
I bought a bunch of grapeseed oil from Aldi, actually. Is the grapeseed oil from Aldi ok to use as a carrier oil? Do you know if grapeseed oil is good for oily, dry, or combo skin? Would you recommend grapeseed oil for this kind of project?
just seeing this! yes, I use Aldi olive and coconut oil. not using grapeseed oil much. BUT olive oil is for normal skin, avocado for dry skin and safflower or sunflower for oily skin. I use infused oils in my custom-made face serums. I would suggest you get a 1 oz dropper bottle and mix your infused oil with a serum from marshalls w hyaluronic acid for a basic serum. you can also add vitamin E. keep your mason jar of infused oil in a cool dark place as you wont use all at once. also adding some rose essential oil ($$$) or lavender will help your skin and make your serum smell nice.❤
Hi Barbara I LOVED your video! I am making a serum from my roses & lavender - I have a 1oz glass bottle, how much of the H acid would I add? LOVE your breakdown of everything on the white board too btw. xo
Just seeing this comment...so you just kinda play with it. It attracts moisture to the skin. I buy it on Amazon from UK. There they use it for gums!! So I squeeze about an inch for 1 oz bottle serum. :-)
so to make perfume, you can take ESSENTIAL OILS and mix with alcohol usually. You could take an infused oil, add beeswax and after cooled, add some essential oil to makr a fragrant ointment.
You wouldn't want infused oil for a candle. Infused oils don't give a smell in most cases. You need essential oils added to your melted wax for all-natural scent. :-)
Absolutely! Dried flowers are better if you are going to store for a while bc you want as little water in that oil as possible. If you dry your own petals, dont leave them to over dry...watch them.
Hello from Québec!! I do have a little question. When you make your serum, your vitC, and hyaluronic acid, are they on powder form? How long is self life with thé vitC? Nice infuse oil!!!❤️
No, Vit C and E are in liquid/oil form. Hyaluronic acid is in gel form, I buy from England. They use on gums there. :-) vitamin E is a preservative. But i sell in 1 oz bottles that last max 3 months, so my products are made fresh and made to be used quickly.
hmmmm. why not? just let sit for longer time? deoending on how hot it gets. you dont want infusion to boil!! i think that could be a smart idea. oh, you would need to carefully w hotpot holders shake it every two hours since no water bath around mason jar. did you try it yet? ❤
Is this the same process with rosemary? I've seen people boil water and do it over the stove after turning the burner off. Would that work properly? I've wanting to make some oils for my hair and nails.
Yes, use fresh rosemary in a smaller jar to get a good concentration. You could add rosemary essential oil (I recommend Aura Cacia brand, not paid endorser, but bc I like them!). To make a shampoi, take your oil and add 1/4 rosemary oil, one half castille soap and 1/4 water. Or you could let oil set on your scalp with a towel on. Also for hair oil, I would use fresh rosemary AND fresh peppermint to stimulate the scalp. Thanks for comment. :-)
so I am an herbal esthetician and I custom blend serums for clients according to what their skin needs. I usually use half of a 1 oz dropper bottle of infused oil and fill the rest vith vit A, C and E plus lavender essential oil. ❤
I cover this in the video. Water in plant matter will make oil cloudy and will grow mold in your oil. For long-term preservation, let matter dry for a day or 2, then make your preparation.
I guess it depends where you are and how strong the sun is. If it got no warmer than a warm crock pot I think it would be amazing to infuse with the sun's amazing energy. I do reiki, so that extra energy really interests me. Hmmmm...let me know if you try the sun.
@@shafranherbals thank you. I figured I shouldn’t but I can’t seem to find any organic roses. Thanks for responding tho I really appreciate it and I really like ur channel

😊 glad to help, you may be leaving plant chemicals in the mortar and pestle, too!!
These are the best exercises I've done for my neck. Thank you so much for sharing!

well, I have been teaching 30 years...better to review to much than to blow by things. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment. :-)
Thank you for explaining the reason why water doesn't mix with the oil. Also the expectation of the scent being milder.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks for being so generous with the explanations. This will be my go-to video when I start making these. Love the hint about using a crock pot.
Candle video with lavender and rose are my favorite

I love the way you teach all the benefits

Thanks. I was wondering if too much info. I am a teacher so you never know if it is overkill. I will add this to my future videos. :-)
@@shafranherbals What kind of oil should I use
@@annoupale2sante210 so depends what you are doing. Avacado for dry skin. Olive for normal or combo and safflower for oily skin w a little jojoba.

@@shafranherbals I have hyaluronic acid from Timeless, fyi, in case it is not available at Marshall’s. $10-ish.
Your video is very helpful thank you 😊 🙏🏿

so i use hyaluronic acid on Amazon that British use for gum disease. For a 1 oz jar, I squeeze an inch out of the tube.
go mom!
You are the best director 😉
thank you for your educational video....is hyaluronic acid expensive?
nope. i buy on Amazon from UK...the British use it for gum disease!!
Loved this video!! Thank you so much! Would you recommend using two oils for infusion?
Thank you so much! 🥰
Very educational video
Can we use it to make perfume??
so to make perfume, you can take ESSENTIAL OILS and mix with alcohol usually. You could take an infused oil, add beeswax and after cooled, add some essential oil to makr a fragrant ointment.
also check out the Cosmetic Act of 1938 in USA, may be illegal to make and sell perfume (seriously!) know the act if making perfume❤
I’m in the process of starting a candle business and I wanted to know if the infused oil can be sold. Thank you
You wouldn't want infused oil for a candle. Infused oils don't give a smell in most cases. You need essential oils added to your melted wax for all-natural scent. :-)
Love your videos
Can you make it with dry flowers?
Absolutely! Dried flowers are better if you are going to store for a while bc you want as little water in that oil as possible. If you dry your own petals, dont leave them to over dry...watch them.

@@shafranherbals Thank you for your helpful advice!

So welcome. Thank you for the comment!
If I placed the jar on the burner of a coffee maker for the same amount of time, is that ok?
hmmmm. why not? just let sit for longer time? deoending on how hot it gets. you dont want infusion to boil!! i think that could be a smart idea. oh, you would need to carefully w hotpot holders shake it every two hours since no water bath around mason jar. did you try it yet? ❤

Cirums, What are the rations for these, oils how many drops of ...vit, e, c, a? To one oz of rose oil. Thank you i await your answer.

Is it better to use dried roses and lavender? Or just let the flowers wilt a little
I cover this in the video. Water in plant matter will make oil cloudy and will grow mold in your oil. For long-term preservation, let matter dry for a day or 2, then make your preparation.
Can you use freeze dried or air dried roses and lavender?
Will the sun do the same thing or is that too powerful
I guess it depends where you are and how strong the sun is. If it got no warmer than a warm crock pot I think it would be amazing to infuse with the sun's amazing energy. I do reiki, so that extra energy really interests me. Hmmmm...let me know if you try the sun.
The sun does work but you have to leave in a sealed glass jar for about two weeks
You don’t have to use a water bath. Just let it sit for 6 weeks.
Hi, can I use roses that I buy from the grocery store?
Well, I would NOT unless I knew there were no pesticides or herbicides used on the roses. Best to use roses you pick yourself from known sources.
@@shafranherbals thank you. I figured I shouldn’t but I can’t seem to find any organic roses. Thanks for responding tho I really appreciate it and I really like ur channel
There is no need to wash the petals it will lose part of the oils.
Don't wash...but do rinse lightly w water or harvest after rain to prevent dirt and bugs from being in your product.
I love this info and the way you explained it
Did you make some?? Thanks for feedback!!
I got the same rose gloves you have the same year you made this video😂 but I never actually used them!
