@@HumblebeeAndMe it actually shows how much effort is going into the whole process from writing to filming to editing, but it really makes a huge difference. You deserve your success every single day.
I've been making this balm for myself for years too and just recently added some SCI to the formulation and love the wash off quality and feel of my skin after use, and it takes all my makeup off too. Thanks for the update.
Thank you so much for this recipe!! I like the texture of the balm to milk as opposed to an oil cleanser alone. It looks so luxurious. Also, your lip color is gorgeous!!!! Thanks again ☮️💟
@@HumblebeeAndMe Your blog is the most trustworthy and helpful I believe. For more than 10 years I could not find so many useful stuff in one place. Thank you for this great job and generosity! 👏❤
I will use this as a starting point to make a solid cleansing "balm" bar. I want something that is not considered a liquid so it could bypass tsa liquids rule. Could prove tricky but it's worth a shot. I'll give this recipe a shot as well even if my experiment fails. I'm trying to move away from using micellar water. I like cleansing oils but I'm looking to try something that would offer a more luxurious skin feel and experience.
Wow, it looks too good! 😍😍😍 is it hard enough to be a solid bar with no container? Can’t wait to try it. Also your blog is amazing, thanks for teaching us!
Can I use Rosehip oil for some part of coconut oil? I have sensitive skin and rosehip helps in soothing skin? Also which Essential oil should I use best for my sensitive skin?
Ohhh this is exactly what I’m for. Do any of the ingredients clog up the sink drain over time? Are the ingredients bio-degrable? Also, after wiping off with a cloth do you still need to do a face rinse?
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!
@@HumblebeeAndMe oh cool! Very creative (as expected coming from you!) Might I ask how you get it to stay in place on your scale as I’m guessing you’re using it for protection? I’m also wondering if having it on your scale ever affects readings ie im guessing if the scales reads the weight of the coaster when you turn it in, you use the tare function?
I don’t know what I’m doing wrong or what my skin doesn’t like but I don’t get a good rinse off and it doesn’t take my makeup off. Ugh! I’m thinking my skin doesn’t like the Fractionated Coconut Oil or something.
I really don't recommend adding a water soluble surfactant to this formulation. Please read this for more information: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/can-i-add-a-surfactant-to-this-mostly-fat-based-formulation-or-vice-versa/. Happy making!
I really love cleanser with clay and oils, but i was thinking about the comedogenic level of coconutoil. Most in my family have skin problems and i am not sure if the coconutoil is a good idea then. I mostly just use it for the dry bodyparts or for soaps. Can you tell me more about it?
Hi Erika! Fractionated coconut oil is not coconut oil, so no worries there. You can learn more about it in the free Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) :) Additionally, comedogenic ratings really aren't all that helpful when determining if a product will clog pores. Lab Muffin has a fab video & blog post on this :) But the general gist is: your face isn't a rabbit ear + the overall formulation really matters. Happy making!
hello, marie......you ARE the queen bee. thank you for this and all you do!! i have what is probably a very DUH question, but is there a particular reason that you need to cool the mixture down before pouring it into the jars? a separation thing? thank you!!! it looks divine. the only way i ever cleanse my face is with cleansing oils or balms.....it really IS the only way to go! (= xx

I don't recommend this swap; I didn't use coconut oil, I used FRACTIONATED coconut oil, and they are quite different. Please look them up in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) to learn more. It is not a good idea to use something solid, like shea butter, instead of something liquid in a formulation where melting point is very important. Happy making!
Can I substitute cetearyl alcohol with beeswax? And can I used Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate as emulsifying wax nf in the formula together with beeswax? Can we get the same balm to milky cleanser?
I really REALLY do not recommend making the beeswax swap. Beeswax does not rinse off the skin very well, and will leave your face feeling really sticky/tacky and not clean. Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate could work as an alternative to emulsifying wax NF, but you won't need as much. Probably only about half as much, and then you should replace the other half with more cetearyl alcohol.
@@HumblebeeAndMe thank you for your reply. Actually the task given to me is to make balm to milky cleanser with mineral oil free, alcohol free, petroleum free, sulfate free, fragrance free, paraben free and non comodogenic. 1. Is cetearyl alcohol considered as alcohol? I know cetearyl alcohol is fatty alcohol but because the word alcohol is there so will that makes the product cannot claim alcohol free? 2. Can I used carnauba wax instead? Together with glyceryl stearate and peg100 stearate as the emulsifying wax nf. Is that combination good enough? 3. I've read your blog (but not all). I need to add gum to thicken the balm if used glyceryl stearate and peg100 stearate as the emulsifying wax nf. How much percentage should I used in the formula? I'm sorry for the many questions. Hope you won't mind to answer my questions pleaseeeee

Hi!! Love your recipes as always! What could we do to make it a solid cleanser that will hold without packaging?
I shared three exfoliating facial cleansers last year :) www.humblebeeandme.com/apricot-powder-to-foam-facial-cleanser/ + www.humblebeeandme.com/almond-oat-powder-to-foam-facial-cleanser/ + www.humblebeeandme.com/frosted-cranberry-powder-to-foam-facial-cleanser/. There are more on my blog, too. Happy making!
Thanks for watching! You can't make that swap; please learn more in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) so you can understand how they are different. Happy making!

Can you make oil to milk body scrub.. it contains oils for hydration but turns into milky consistency when combined with water! I’ve been looking for such formula but never found one even though they’re many products like this! Non creamy scrubs but turns to creamy with water.. I think you’re the best one to do it😍 Please help! ♥️
I'll keep it in mind-thanks for the suggestion! In the meantime, this is pretty close to what you're asking for: www.aromantic.co.uk/blogs/recipes/foaming-shower-oil. Happy making!
Hi marie! I tried making this formula however it is too soft to touch and i think it will melt. Can i increase the percentage of cetearyl alcohol and by how much. Also the texture of the balm is grainy and not smooth. how can i fix this?
Hi Hasti! You can increase the cetearyl; how much will depend on how hot it is where you live. I'd start with 5-10%. For graininess; are you sure your clay is smooth? I also recommend watching these videos: Why is my body butter melting? th-cam.com/video/M8HwCjsB23A/w-d-xo.html Why is my body butter grainy? th-cam.com/video/ZjeBoBQxMgc/w-d-xo.html 6 body butter mistakes most newbies make (and how to fix them) th-cam.com/video/HVibr-ESEgY/w-d-xo.html Body butter and cleansing balms have a lot of formulation cross-over, so these should help :)
I tested the formulation on my face, and there is no oily feel afterwards :) I've learned through experience that including the same level of emulsifier as I would to make an emulsion creates products that are far too harsh/drying. Happy making!

Considering that water can get into anything strictly speaking you should probably use preservative in anything, and as Marie advised, she’s got information on preservatives in the blog post. Having said that I’ve made this and had no issue with just using a small spatula to remove what I want before adding water, as I’d imagine would be the case for most people
Do you know what I do when I see a DIY formula/product that I feel there are things wrong with it? I look at the video, say to MYSELF, "eh", and then, I don't click the like button, nor do I save the video. You should give it a try, because to NOT be the ONLY, immature ASS, leaving condescending, insulting comments, is a WONDERFUL feeling.
As someone has actually used the balm, I can attest that it is not too harsh to scoop and apply, even in a Canadian winter :) I have also shared softer cleansing balm formulations in the past: www.humblebeeandme.com/cream-silk-cleansing-balm/. Happy making!
I think your opinion comes from your very limited experience with cleansing balms. Even a quick Google search will show you that there are expensive cleansing balms that have very similar textures to this. Being "harsh" must be a Canadian thing because right now I'm attempting to make a harder and solid cleansing "balm" bar out of this. 🤣
I’ve been making your recipe from 2016 for all these years. Everyone loves it!
❤️ I'm thrilled to hear it!
You did it again! Thank you for sharing your brilliance with the world. Keep creating and inspiring
