I have used this riceberry cream from litttllextra for a while now, throughout both summer and winter, and I really like it. I use it occasionally now for the radiant glow it gives my skin, but it really saved me, especially during the winter months. My skin tends to be extremely dry during winter, and nothing, no matter how enriching, could help with the dryness. However, this moisturizer has a rich, creamy texture and gives a soft glow to the face while keeping it moisturized. There were times when it was so cold for me to leave the bed and actually do a multi-step skincare routine, and this moisturizer came to the rescue. I’d definitely choose this in the cold season. It’s great for summers too, as it doesn’t feel heavy or feel heavy on my face. So glad I discovered this moisturizer.
same for me, i just cleanse my face with rice berry face wash and then apply riceberry face serum and face moisturizer. no breakouts, only glow glow glow.
I had the Wonderful Opportunity to Apprentice with Rosemary Gladstar in 1996. It was such an honor to learn first hand with such an Amazing Herbal Goddess!!! Sage Mountain was where so much Magic began!!! Always a pleasure to see her videos!! Infinite Green Blessings and Love!!! ✋🏻🌿🤚🏻
I don't know if this is a good idea, but I wipe out the blender with a flannel cloth and then use that cloth for polishing wood. The wood seems to love the treatment as much as my skin!

I did it. Finally grew the calendula waited patiently for the golden oil and made my first ever batch of perfect cream. Thank so much Rosemary and friends Thank You 🎉
I just love her spirit. Lovely to watch someone who is so comfortable in her own skin. Nice video. The Medicinal Herbs Beginners Guide is wonderful and such an easy ready. Lots of easy to follow recipes. I just received my copy and immediately ordered the other book shown on this video. I cant wait! 🤗
I’ve made about 6 batches of this cream. I absolutely love it! I’ve never had a problem until this last batch, I got a bunch of the little fat gobules. I couldn’t figure out what I did! It was the cocoa butter! Thanks for video! And the recipe! You’re an amazing woman!
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you! It’s making great Christmas gifts this year! Using calendula/rose/chamomile herbal oil , coconut oil, Shea butter and chamomile /lavender hydrosol . Thank you for the creative inspiration !
I have been making this cream for about 6 months. I make it all the time as I give it to my friends who absolutely love it, too. I finally got the courage to increase the bees wax from 1/2oz to .7oz and .8oz. I also started adding vitamin E oil as well, about 1t. I highly recommend making this cream!! Fragrances bother me so I do not add any essential oils.
The colloidal silver is a BRILLANT idea! I bet that holds any bacteria at bay wonderfully! I make my own, thank you so much for sharing the suggestion! ❤
Thanks for sharing this video and the information you shared with the community about this project of making it possible. How can I Oder the book.❤️👍🏾💯😊
You answered so many questions I had after experimenting with making my own creams and sometimes a few mistakes like it being too runny or the water not blending properly you are definitely an expert
I simply LOVE this presentation!!! What a lovely lady (well, two ladies), and such great information that goes beyond making a product. Thank you and God bless you💛💚💙 (P.S. God is stronger and better than any "magician". Pharao's "magicians" and ALL the other ones, too, were/are no match for our Creator - pray to Him, beautiful people.)
I’d strongly suggest using a preservative when adding any kind of water, aloe, hydrosols to oils because of bacteria and mold growth. Wear gloves and sterilize jars and any tools you’re going to be using. If you refrigerate it will last a day or two at most without preservative.
Hi Rosemary. I’m on my second batch of you face cream and something went wrong. Instead of being creamy, it’s a cracked soupy mess. I may have over blended. How can I fix it?
I made the cream today. And the cream was splitting and couldn't encorporate all the water. At the end I have strain so that the liquid separated. The oil I used were rose petals soaked in olive oil. Magnolia flowers soaked in Avacado oil and calendula oil soaked in olive oil. I used coconut oil and bee wax. I don't know what I have done wrong. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.
Hi Rosmary, following you fantastic video above of how to make your face cream, you said that the recipe was in your book "Medicinal herbs' beginners guide" .I have bought the book and the recipe is nowhere to be found?? Can you please help? Thanking you in advance,Paola
Essential oils are EXTREMELY concentrated and dangerous to use in excess. It's too much volatile oils for your organs to filter. You only need 1 or 2 drops per batch such as this. Microdosing with plants is best since you reap the benefits without the negative side effects or traits.
Hi, what is the equivalent in millilitres (the conversions I get is either 227 ml Canadian or 237 ml US) ? The difference is not big , maybe it doesn’t matter ?
Ordinarily, yes you do; however, for this specific recipe, the beeswax behaves like an emulsifier due to the intense blending of the oils and water. As the author states, this particular recipe does not require one, based on her experience. Vitamins C & E, sandalwood, or resins such as frankincense ARE NOT preservatives. I don’t know why this myth is being disseminated as fact. They are antioxidants or have properties that behave as antioxidants and there’s a huge difference!!! If you’re going to make it to give as a gift or to sell it, I would highly recommend using a preservative such as Germall Plus or Oxiphen. Both of these are broad spectrum preservatives that inhibit microbial overgrowth. They will ensure that your product will not grow life-altering microbes, but will guarantee your products remain shelf stable.
This looks wonderful but I don’t believe that this won’t go bad and last indefinitely as she says! Listen to all the professional natural cosmetic making courses and they all explain how important it is to use preservatives when you add any amount of water.
I have made this recipe for several years. I use to keep it in the frig for fear of it spoiling. But I now leave it at room temp and it lasts for months or until I finish it. I have never had any spoilage problems, even though I dip my fingers into the jar! This is an amazing recipe, just add waters very slowly to the cool oils. It makes a big batch too!
@@artymiss3707 Do you have any idea how many months it's lasting? I've made multiple batches of this over the last year and I'm hearing back from friends that it's getting moldy after a 2-3 months.
I've been making this for a while. It makes about 4-5 cups. I normally give away about about half to friends who love it (about 3 jars). I use a generous amount all over my body & a little on my face. I do not keep it in the fridge and have not had any go bad. I would guess the longest I've had some on a shelf is 6 months when I had made a double batch. It did not smell rancid, which surprised me to be honest. also it had not gone bad in any way. Then add in another month it took me to use it up. In the summer, I have it get melty, but it hasn't completely made melted.
@@consciouslypure2176 I need to update and correct my response. I made a double batch last time and kept half of it and stored in a dark closet in the bathroom. I already had a jar I was using from my last batch which I was using. They were brand new jars & lids & I washed in hot soapy water. Allowed them to air dry a few days. Used the same oils and butters I always use. It's summer & our house warmed enough to melt the one I was using. One day I thought it smelled differently but not a rancid smell. The next thing I knew the rubber gasket of the lid was turning black (this was the jar of the previous batch and was in a recycled jar). I took out the ones in the last batch in the new jars, they had not melted or separated but were very soft the both were turning black in the center of the cream, but the kids were fine. I will never keep so many on hand unrefrigerated again.
I know this is an old video but I hope you can answer a couple of questions. Does the waters have to be pored directly down the middle of the blender? I have a high speed spender (ninja with 3 blades) and it has an offset spout (on the side). The other question is do you think I should have a designated blender for this?
loved your watching that. Will try it but I found your difficulties digging out the coconut butter astounding. I sit here by the Mediterranean seaside looking at my coco butter, a clear liquid with a bit of white cloud at the bottom , it is summer now but even in winter I find my coconut butter is soft. My question is what should I use to keep my lotion from being to runny in hot weather.
So grateful for this video! I tried to make this following the recipe in one of Rosemary's books, and I did it so wrong :( ahahaha! The consistency was wrong, and then after a month they moulded. I'm inspired to try again, because the cream is just so amazing! This video is really clear and helpful
@@toniashump5345 Books are clear, but seeing a video makes it even clearer. There are any other useful things in the book so I would still recommend buying it :)
I loved this video! My house is in disarry! Ihave had bad weather! The neighbors were were telling I was a witch! I am cool wirh witches! My crazy flowers are succulents, parsley sage, rosemary and thyme! Basil , orenano! Call me crazy! Oh and roses! Lol! 😮
Not using any preservatives is not a good idea. Even though the ingredients by themselves might not go bad, once they are emulsified they are a lot more likely to grow mold and bacteria, which often won't be visible.
No. The vitamin E as preservative takes care of that just fine. Also the distilled water. I have made this cream for probably 30 years and have never had mold.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant NOT a preservative. Rosemary EO is also not a preservative. Vitamin E will extend the shelf life of your carrier oils but that’s it... This NEEDS a preservative to last on the “shelf”. Yes it will last longer refrigerated but will still go bad. Just because u don’t see mold or bacteria doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Please research more... don’t just take their word or mine. You’ll see what I’m saying is right.
AussieWitchCerberus Bindweed I agree. I used coco oil for few months and it made my skin rough, I switched to almond and am back to soft and supple skin.
Lanolin just doesn’t sound like it’s worth adding. People are sensitive to it and it stains. And definitely not for vegans. 😊 Does anyone have suggestions for a substitute? I was thinking of glycerin or just adding a little more cacao butter.
In the words of Rosemary: "This basic formula, though excellent as is, can be further embellished with your own creative spirit. There is plenty of room for creative input. Feel free." www.motherearthnews.com/natural-health/body-care/homemade-face-cream-ze0z1310zpit
Hi I made a green tea face cream the other day , added nearly the same ingredients , but no water , I realised, the cream was hard, n if you use a spatula to apply it ,you get only oil kind of consistency ... I need to fix it . Plz guide
With no water, you made a salve. Use it as it is. If you must have a cream, remelt your salve (which is the oils of the cream recipe), emulsify with the water ingredients following Rosemary's guidelines.
Yes, you always have to add preservative when you add water! People think cos they can’t see bacteria and fungi that is not there. If you don’t add preservative, it spoils in few days actually.
Arlene, I have watched this video 4 times and that is clearly a quart mason jar (with oil only) that is half full which means it is 2 cups so either my recipe is really going to be off because I am using one cup of oil and I am going to add one cup of water because if she didn't double it then I'm going to be way off. I was hoping she did actually double the recipe which would mean all this work I'm doing wont be wasted!
I really think that everybody can make his/ her own cteam.Maybe these oils are not ok for my face but they are ok for your face.I find beeswax really bad for my skin for example.Olive oil not good for my skin...sweet almond oil very good for my skin and avocado oil very good again.And surprise surprise.. coconot oil which is supposed to clog pores is very good for my skin!!!
She mentions in the video if it separates you can wait until it is separated and then pour off the water part. Put the oil part back in a blender and redo by pouring in the water mixture again. She promises it will not separate the second time. I want to remember this in case I ever need it.
It's a good demonstration but it's too long and too much of talking.. hard to concentrate on the ingredients ! Make it short and productive please! As someone mentioned cannot hear all the conversation at all as the sound is so low! Anyway thanks a lot for your demonstration!
I DID THIS EXPERIMENT -I GOT THE WATER AND THE BEESWAX AND THE OIL - AND NOW I HAVE A HUGE MESS !!!!! THE OIL DID NOT BOND WITH THE WATER ! THE MESS IS SO HUGE ,BECAUSE I TRIED TO BLEND THE 2 INGREDIENTS TOGETHER ,FIRST WITH MY HAND BLENDER AND NEXT WITH MY BLENDER - AND THE MESS CAME WITH THE CLEAN UP! BECAUSE YOU CANT JUST THROW THIS DOWN THE DRAIN! I HAD TO WASH EVERYTHING AT LEAST 4 TIMES TO GET THE OIL RESIDUE OFF OF EVERYTHING - WHAT A FUCKING NIGHTMARE ! THANKS ROSEMARY GLADSTONE !!!!!!!!!!
When you use water and oil..you definitely need to use broad spectrum preservative like optiphen plus and yes it would spoil without it in a week or less guaranteed. Vitamin E is not a preservative but an antioxidant. Please do not spread wrong information to average consumers you’re exposing people to violent skin infections by advising people to use something that is very bad for their skin like molded cream.. What old information as well.. The cream would separate without proper emulsifier..
I have been making and using this cream for years. I've never had any problem with it going bad or moldy. Maybe you should try it and see for yourself. It seems to defy the 'logic' of going rancid as it lasts me for months even when I dip my fingers into the container which sits at room temp. I use distilled water and/or lavender hydrosol. It is my daily facial moisturizer. I use it in conjunction with her recipes for mineral scrub and Queen of Hungary Water toner. Rosemary has been around for a looooong time and speaks and shares from that experience. But try it for yourself 😁
Thank you for the demo but the transcript is in Spanish and cannot change it to English for some reason. And it has nothing to do with what you are talking about. Very frustrating.

1 c. Oil
Tiny bit Lanolin, will smell later like sheep
Beeswax granules 1/2 oz. -1 Oz.
Slowly melt don't cook, stir
Bring oils to room temp (very important)
Bottled water, can add aloe

Would vegetable glycerin or vit e be ok to use as the 2/3 C liquid you start with?
No to both as the liquid, but you could add a few drops of vitamin E into the mixture

I would not recommend using coconut oil as contrary to popular believe it does block the pores in the skin and therefore can cause breakouts.

I agree. I used coco oil for few months and it made my skin rough, I switched to almond and am back to soft and supple skin.
AussieWitchCerberus Bindweed so what should we use in place of the coconut oil?

Sometimes you can substitute with Shea butter.
Wonderful tutorial. Thank you.
A learning experience from the comfort of my home, feeling blessed.
Making this today. Fingers crossed !
Audio is not working for you.
You should always use gloves to be sanitary and anytime you use water in a recipe you need a preservative, water is a major bacteria carrier
Lanolin just doesn’t sound like it’s worth adding. People are sensitive to it and it stains. And definitely not for vegans. 😊 Does anyone have suggestions for a substitute? I was thinking of glycerin or just adding a little more cacao butter.
Could you add sunflower lecithin to add in emulsion?

Hi I made a green tea face cream the other day , added nearly the same ingredients , but no water , I realised, the cream was hard, n if you use a spatula to apply it ,you get only oil kind of consistency ... I need to fix it . Plz guide
With no water, you made a salve. Use it as it is.
If you must have a cream, remelt your salve (which is the oils of the cream recipe), emulsify with the water ingredients following Rosemary's guidelines.
Help me because I made calendula cream and feel nervous about using it
Recipe for this please
I bought when you add any water ingredients, you have to add a preservative, otherwise it’s only good for maybe 3 weeks tops!
At about 16:10 she says nothing in the mix should go bad.
Yes, you always have to add preservative when you add water! People think cos they can’t see bacteria and fungi that is not there. If you don’t add preservative, it spoils in few days actually.
I believe that the oil was 2 cups instead of one cup, that is why the product in the blender showed 4 cups. They doubled the recipe.
Rosemary says several times that it is one cup each oils and water. It emulsifies and whips to double in volume.
Arlene, I have watched this video 4 times and that is clearly a quart mason jar (with oil only) that is half full which means it is 2 cups so either my recipe is really going to be off because I am using one cup of oil and I am going to add one cup of water because if she didn't double it then I'm going to be way off. I was hoping she did actually double the recipe which would mean all this work I'm doing wont be wasted!

Thank you for sharing!!
Please please please mike the presenter!
Do yall have a problem with the inside lid molding
What are the names of the essential oils she used?
I really think that everybody can make his/ her own cteam.Maybe these oils are not ok for my face but they are ok for your face.I find beeswax really bad for my skin for example.Olive oil not good for my skin...sweet almond oil very good for my skin and avocado oil very good again.And surprise surprise.. coconot oil which is supposed to clog pores is very good for my skin!!!
Can I use something else to replace the beewax?
Today I made it. It's my third time but it is totally different. Super runny and I see the water and oils separating! What can I do? Help please :)
She mentions in the video if it separates you can wait until it is separated and then pour off the water part. Put the oil part back in a blender and redo by pouring in the water mixture again. She promises it will not separate the second time. I want to remember this in case I ever need it.
@@joylouise5417 Thank you. It separated second time, lol but it's a bit better than first time
Can barely hear Rosemary until the end. Bummer
I have never heard of putting water in it. Hmm. Nice cream though, thank you.
After she rubbed the cream on, Rosemary' s face got really red!
I have been taught I need ewax for an emulsion and that bees wax is not an emulsifier. I’ll have to try this recipe.
Because large corporations want to sell their wares to us...
I have read that oil and water makes bacterial explosions.
It's a good demonstration but it's too long and too much of talking.. hard to concentrate on the ingredients ! Make it short and productive please! As someone mentioned cannot hear all the conversation at all as the sound is so low! Anyway thanks a lot for your demonstration!
Did I mess it up: how much water she has in the cup?
Can you please give the recipe?
How far is the mic from you? The audio is terrible.
Hello Hannah Kincaid😊♀️🌐🛡️🚭🧬🥰Lovely Face Cream 😊
When you used water in a formula, you need a preservative.
I DID THIS EXPERIMENT -I GOT THE WATER AND THE BEESWAX AND THE OIL -
AND NOW I HAVE A HUGE MESS !!!!!
THE OIL DID NOT BOND WITH THE WATER !
THE MESS IS SO HUGE ,BECAUSE I TRIED TO BLEND THE 2 INGREDIENTS TOGETHER ,FIRST WITH MY HAND BLENDER AND NEXT WITH MY BLENDER -
AND THE MESS CAME WITH THE CLEAN UP! BECAUSE YOU CANT JUST THROW THIS DOWN THE DRAIN!
I HAD TO WASH EVERYTHING AT LEAST 4 TIMES TO GET THE OIL RESIDUE OFF OF EVERYTHING -
WHAT A FUCKING NIGHTMARE !
THANKS ROSEMARY GLADSTONE !!!!!!!!!!
What is hydrocells
No sound!
When you use water and oil..you definitely need to use broad spectrum preservative like optiphen plus and yes it would spoil without it in a week or less guaranteed. Vitamin E is not a preservative but an antioxidant. Please do not spread wrong information to average consumers you’re exposing people to violent skin infections by advising people to use something that is very bad for their skin like molded cream.. What old information as well..
The cream would separate without proper emulsifier..
they never mentioned molded cream, and nothing personal Ellie, but I trust Rosemary over you any day
does anyone have the recipe for this, I couldn't keep up or hear
Yes exactly! People think that you have to see bacteria and mould. You don’t see them! It’s there, after few days without using preservative.
I have been making and using this cream for years. I've never had any problem with it going bad or moldy. Maybe you should try it and see for yourself. It seems to defy the 'logic' of going rancid as it lasts me for months even when I dip my fingers into the container which sits at room temp. I use distilled water and/or lavender hydrosol. It is my daily facial moisturizer. I use it in conjunction with her recipes for mineral scrub and Queen of Hungary Water toner.
Rosemary has been around for a looooong time and speaks and shares from that experience. But try it for yourself 😁
cool
soap & a little bleach will cut the oil, when washing...
I'm not hear a single word from u guys u need to turn up ur volume plz
Audio is really bad....
There so many essential oils..Imonly heard citrus
Beeswax is not emulsifyng wax, this cream will separate to oil and water
I have made this cream several times and it has never separated if you do it as she says.
I also have not had a problem with it separating except once, when I added the Oil warm as she says.
@@bomorrow Where did you find the recipe, Bo?? I'd love to make this!

Thank you for the demo but the transcript is in Spanish and cannot change it to English for some reason. And it has nothing to do with what you are talking about. Very frustrating.
