I just made this recipe, and it is one of the best I've ever tried! The people making comments about it spoiling and just being rude to this wonderful creator, she is just teaching a simple butter. If you think you can do better, go do it!!!
Hi there. Can you tell me if you used all the exact same ingredients she did in her recipe? I tried making a small batch just to test out (not to be shelf stable or anything like that) so I did not add the preservative to her homemade aloe vera gel since I don't have any preservatives, but I used the same other ingredients. After adding the aloe and whisking it into the butter it became very stiff and hard. Do you know what I might have done wrong? I was really hoping to be able to use home made aloe gel and my block of shea butter.
How come I used all your exact ingredients and measurements and itself of it coming out as a lotion it came out like a body butter, what could have gone wrong. This is why I don't make lotions
I do fresh aloe. Blend it. Boil it with jojoba oil. Strain it. Double boil Shea and cocoa. Combine. Whip for a Half hour. In the freezer for a little bit and that’s it
Just LOVE IT! Cecil you rock!!!!!!!!!!! Honestly you have the gift to combine simple things and make them gorgeous natural cosmetics! Thank you very much!
Thank you !thank you !thank you you! I can’t handle people talking anymore,😂 I have to just find people like you with the music ,education and ingredients! it’s a beautiful tutoral❤
Hi new subscriber here. Wow such simple ingredients, I love THIS! I'm going to do this as a face cream of course I gotta do a couple of batch tests first. But I absolutely love shea butter and aloe vera gel for the face. 😍Also guys, the ones concerned about the product spoiling or whatever, the natural vitamin E is an anti-oxidant that prevents products from going rancid or spoiling. Also store bought aloe vera gel already has a preservative in it, or at least it should, check for ingredient on the container such as phenoxyethanol or any other preservative name. The product lasts as long as your shortest raw ingredient shelf life does. Me personally I would label 6 mos from use.
Preservatives usage is calculated to the formula and weight, with different PH coverage and temperature limitations. so store bought Aloe Vera gel contains preservatives designed only to that particular product, not to any new formulas you plan to use with the gel. The particular vitamin E used in skincare to extend shelf life is vitamin E T-50, INCI name Tocopherol. There are different types of vitamin E, better check the ingredients or inci labels.
I learned that whipping shea butter lightens the color which I did not know before. I did not use this recipe but experimented and used my own version. I added a small amount of oil after whipping the butter. I used kokum butter and shea.
I found a whole new channel...I admire everything you put out. Your content is rich and inspiring . I love the simplicity and straightforwardness of it all. You truly rock girl.
This looks like an amazing recipe. I’ve been looking for an excuse to use some of my aloe plant which has grown quite a bit since I started growing it.
LOVELY presentation, thank you for NO TALKING, nice music and just print to read onscreen, very pleasant. For me, these two items do not moisture enough, even if put on hot wet skin, some oil needs to b added, but not much.
Beautiful video. My concern is that the use of aloe gel necessitates a preservative for safety; unless the batch will be all used up in a few days, microbe growth definitely will occur.
@@prettybrwneyez7757 Microbe growth still happens in the refrigerator and in the freezer. Ever seen mold in a forgotten item on a back fridge shelf? Yep.
I'm a Ghanaian and I sell Shea Butter. My Shea Butter is so smooth and soft like the Uganda one. Not all Ghanaian Shea Butter is hard, in fact the hard one is not original. I just had to clarify. Thanks
Cecil, I keep telling you, it's time to team up with Rhianna :-) All jokes aside, you and the content you share here are outstanding. I am not saying this just to give a review. I am saying it because I have used and benefited from several of your recipes. Your products are of great quality and I will continue to purchase them. Some things I do make the attempt to try and create but there are so many, I would rather save for you the expert to create and sell. Thank you for all your exceptional work. Blessings always to you and your family.
Beautiful recipe and beautiful video, thank you. I am looking for shea butter from Uganda and find "Nilotica" (I do have some of that, and quite a bit of the sea from Ghana). Is this "Nilotic" what you used or are there other types of shea butter in Uganda?
I tried it and was happy to see that it was creamy like in this video. However, after a short time it firms up. It is medium thick. I wished it stayed creamy. Is there a way to do it? Maybe by adding more aloe vera gel?
Hi Cecil thank you . The funniest thing I was just abot to make some body body butter for myself and I saw this tutorial, I am going to try it this way
@Claire Edwards, thank you for watching the video.. I am been using the blend with my family for quite sometime now, and we love it.. Will appreciate if I get feedback from you😊
I’m concerned that with Aloe being 99% water the product can become moldy, so I will add vitamin e oil to extend the shelf like and protect the product from becoming rancid.
I'll take take the shea butter from Ghana everytime. thats the TRUE enriched butter for MY type of skin. if the other works better for you thats great. to each HIS/HER OWN!!!
I love how gentle and natural Planet Ayurveda sandalwood and olive butter product is. It doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin, and I feel confident that I’m using something safe and effective.
I used aloe in one of my batches but found it holds a lot of water. Worried it would create bacteria, so I didn’t use again. I infuse my with glycerin.
Beautiful recipe! thank you. This is a no-melt recipe. my question is what is the maximum outside temperature that it can tolerate during shipping? 27 or above?
Cecil, your page is a blessing. Thank you for all this 🙏🏽 May you please recommend something for chronically dehydrated/dry skin. I would apply moisturiser on my skin then 2hrs later I’m dry again Please.
Can u use natural alo vera gel cos I hv a lot of alo vera plants at home I am a Ghanaian concerning the Shea butter maybe u didn't get the soft one cos we do hv the soft ones from the northern side of the country 😊
Hello, your bodybutter with aloe vera gel looks great. How long does this body butter last because of the aloe vera gel? Do I have to keep it in the fridge because of the aloe vera? And how do you DIY the aloe vera gel? Thank you very much in advance for your reply.
I just made this recipe, and it is one of the best I've ever tried! The people making comments about it spoiling and just being rude to this wonderful creator, she is just teaching a simple butter. If you think you can do better, go do it!!!

How long can it stay for please and does it ever harden?
If you do not use a preservative, your recipe will spoil it will not be shelfstable. Any formulator knows that!
How come I used all your exact ingredients and measurements and itself of it coming out as a lotion it came out like a body butter, what could have gone wrong. This is why I don't make lotions
@@zadoksworld8905 but this isn't a lotion it's a body butter recipe
I do fresh aloe. Blend it. Boil it with jojoba oil. Strain it. Double boil Shea and cocoa. Combine. Whip for a Half hour. In the freezer for a little bit and that’s it
Boil the gel inside or boil the whole plant?
Just LOVE IT! Cecil you rock!!!!!!!!!!! Honestly you have the gift to combine simple things and make them gorgeous natural cosmetics! Thank you very much!
Thank you so so much dear.. Sending you love and Blessings❤️🙏🏽
Good 🌟
Try not to melt the shea butter which is already soft and add only the oils and mix it will be amazing nice consistency and smooth as well FYI
Thank you !thank you !thank you you! I can’t handle people talking anymore,😂 I have to just find people like you with the music ,education and ingredients! it’s a beautiful tutoral❤
I love this recipe. No oils. Definitely perfect
Glad you like it. Thank you for watching
Durch die Shea-Butter-Creme fühlt sich meine Haut den ganzen Tag über gut gepflegt an.
Kokum butter is fantastic. I can’t say enough about it. I also use fresh aloe vera and cactus.
Thank you for this input. I also have some recipes with fresh aloe Vera gel.
Is the Kokum butter another name for Ugandan Shea or are they 2 separate things?
@@marciamarcia7449 2 different butters

Love your videos. Question, why isn't a preservative required for this formulation which uses Aloe Vera gel. Aloe Vera is mostly water, right?
She did. Vitamin E
Genial me gusta cuando pones los ingredientes en la caja de información 🙏🏻
Thank you for letting me know dear.
Just beautiful ❤thank you 🙏
I will try now ❤❤love your ideas

Can this be used for 1 year old babies, and can I use real aloe Vera. Thanks for sharing I love all you videos. Ty

Beautiful recipe! thank you. This is a no-melt recipe. my question is what is the maximum outside temperature that it can tolerate during shipping? 27 or above?
Love this! Can cocoa butter be used in place of shea butter?
If you use cocoa butter, it will be too hard.

Can u use natural alo vera gel cos I hv a lot of alo vera plants at home
I am a Ghanaian concerning the Shea butter maybe u didn't get the soft one cos we do hv the soft ones from the northern side of the country 😊
No you have to bought the store bought ones
what about shipping will it melt then or is the aloe vera a factor that will help it from not melting during transit?
Wow
Do you have to add the vitamin E or is it optional?
@@GlyceriaChiaLing it can do without vitamin E
What’s the highest temperature that this butter will not melt

Wow super mam
I need help with measurements from grams to ounces. I always feel my measures are off.
Do you know how to measure for percentage to grams? because that is the key.
Is it possible to use regular shea butter as I can’t get the one you recommended using? Thanks
If I mailed this someone in the hot summer, it would not melt? Thanks for you time!

AMEN!
Grazie mille!🌹🍀👍

Please tell me shelf life of this moisturiser.. If we want what preservative and how much to add
Would you keep it in the fridge?
Or is it more like a lotion?
How should this be stored, does anything separate?
Can this method be used for body scrubs? Im trying to make a whipped shea butter body scrub without having to add in a emulsifier or any additives
It's very very nice one
Thank you
