1. Should I add a preservative to my DIY Clear Gel?
Answer: YES, PERIODT 😊

Thanks for your patience and your willingness to keep answering the same questions over and over again! We appreciate you and thanks for sharing! 😀
Thanks you starting my cosmetic line. I’m happy for you sharing this. Blessings and praise
This was so satisfying to watch and “experience/experiment” with you! It definitely saved me some time and money, thank you darling!
Yes! Loved this tutorial! I’ve been mixing for 8 years and I think that the best comparison on making gel soluble things. My fave was the aristo one 🌹🤍
This was the only actually helpful thing I've watched in the past month researching how to make homemade shampoo. I keep reading "add salt, add salt, add glycerin..." but with not a lot of details on how much, in what ratios, or when or at what temperatures... and also none of those worked for thickening my shampoo, like at ALL. So I was a little irrirated and thought MAYBE I'll try one more thing (a gum like xanthan) but I was already pre-annoyed that it probably won't work - just like the glycerin I tried and salt all didn't. But this video actually shows me the difference between these, and how to get those results - so finally I can clearly see what I need now. Thanks!
THANK YOU FOR 50K SUBBIES! 🎉✨ Huge Giveaway Coming soon!
I Love you guys! And I also miss you all! I promise to be more consistent. I have had to slow down creating videos due to fulfilling orders and other huge projects I am working on for you guys . I wouldn't trade this for anything and I hope I can continue to bring you all quality content over quantity. 🙏🏽😊💜
Yaya hi I was curious what would make the most stabilizing shiny lip gloss base. As I’m trying to no longer use premise base and create my own I’m nervous because you said for the first one to stay stable you have to use less than 5 percent oil
@@Cocoamour96 I have not tested the Aristoflex AVC to make a lip gloss yet, but if I had to choose; I would say it has the best texture and stability for a lip gloss. It is also lip safe 👌🏽
And yes, it can only bond oil-in-water emulsions that have 5% or less of the oil phase. Anything more may destabilize the product and cause the oil and water phases to separate.
Good luck with your creation.
It NEEEEEVVVVVVVEEEEEERRRRR fails. EVERY TIME I'm looking for natural DIY, you pop up. Lol. I love it. Thank you so much for this!
You are hands down my favorite DIY youtuber your content is the best. Thank you for sharing with us.
Omg I absolutely love this series thanks so much!!!!
Yessssssss!!!!!! Needed this sis! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I am so glad you find it useful. 🙌🏽💜
really appreciate this series and this video, thank you so much babe!
Thanks @yaya this helps alot. I have been trying to incorporate thickeners and this helps.
I love your tutorials, you are just one of the best on here.
I am so glad you uploaded. This isolation has upped my DIY game. You just reminded me. I bought a tiny immersion blender but I still didn’t receive it yet. I forgot all about it.
Yaaaaaa wondered where you been?!! Now back to showing us more amazing products!
Mariannalynn Thank you! I will do my best 😊💜
Love your diy vids! I might’ve watch all of them in one go! 😩 Would love to see you attempt to make a mousse! 💙
Love your videos!!! Can’t wait for more ❤️
Thank you! I will do my best to keep them coming. 😊
Gurl u are God sent 🙏🏽 your videos are so informative 🤎 I keep on comin for more.
LoL I love watching your videos. I call them my confirmation videos. I had just told my sister and husband last month that I was going to make my own gels because soon they will be off the shelves and lo and behold one of my favorite TH-camrs popped up with a video letting me know...sis, you better get on it 😂. Thanks for the amazing information as always.
Yaya you should totally make a DIY gel recipe for us maybe add a higher percentage of ingredients and shows us how to ad oils next time ❤️ I would be so interested in that
Girl I hope you become a cosmetic chemist b/c the gems you drop are great.
DeltaChi16 Possible lol and thank you 😊💜
I AGREE♥️
@@YayaDIYCreations please i m looking for a thickening agent powder soluble in cold water and no need to stir ( not slush )
I’ve been looking into this but I have noooo idea how!😭😭
I’m obsessed with the spoons 🥄‼️
Yay, you’re back 🥰 I missed you girl 😂
I miss you all too! 😊
Where do you get your hand held blender
Tooprettynlace With Tee I got mine from Amazon
I’ve been waiting for u to do a video like this!!!!! OMG
I am so glad I could help. Let me know if you have any other request.😊
Oooooooooooooooh thank you baby!! I highly appreciate your videos! Very informational
This video was very informative, thank you! What would you recommend to add to flax seed gel to thicken the consistency?
You just saved me some coin and a trip to the store 😂 Feeling lazy to head out to the store for Aloe Vera gel and Amazon is selling the one I want at twice the amount I paid for it at my local health store. I have Aloe Vera juice in my fridge and food grade Xanthan gum in my pantry, so I guess I’m good to go. 😊 👍🏽
** Edit **
OMG I just made me some Aloe Vera gel. My nieces are going to love me. They’re constantly buying gel and I haven’t made flaxseed gel in over a year. I love flaxseed gel but it is kind of time consuming. This took less than five minutes with a mixer. Mixed it in a bowl then transferred it to a jar (just kind of plopped in there on it’s own 😂). Thank you so much for this. 😘
For 100 ml aloe vera juice how much you added Xanthan gum? Please help me.
@@razialatheef5742 you can also use Guar gum. I usually use anywhere from 1/4 tsp to 1 tsp of guar gum or Xanthan gum with vegetable glycerin. So I would suggest mixing 1/2 tsp of your gum with 1 tbsp of glycerin then add it to the aloe vera. The more you mix the aloe the thicker the gel will become. If you need it thicker mix more gum with glycerin to add to your aloe vera (this needs to be done separately, do not add it straight to the already made mixture). Hope this helps. Let me know how it turned out. Good luck 😊
OMG! You have no idea how long I've been trying to find a video that shows the ingredients of how to get the thickness and clear consistency for a gel for me. I'm trying to learn how to make edge control lol
I didn’t know they use gel for edge control
I have no sense🤦🏽♂️😂
Same… now I need to figure out where to buy the aristoflex
Great video very helpful. I was unsure of what I wanted to use to create a leave in conditioner and a gel but this was very helpful for me to make my final decision. Thanks
You can also mix guar and xanthan at .5% each. I find it does improve the texture, viscosity and stability in soap products. I am loving this combination for my higher pH natural liquid soaps that will not thicken with salt. I love aristoflex in my hand sanitizers!
Do you mean at the same time ? In the same beaker ? Then add water ?
@@Teeconsultingg yes
Im. Tring to make. Some thing like jonny b gel. U think u can help me. I can pay thru cash up 😅
I have tried using Guar Gum (food grade) a few months ago in a diy product and it did not mix well at all. I thought maybe I did something wrong so I tried it again and got the same results. Now I know I need to purchase either the cosmetic grade of Guar Gum or go straight to Xanthan Gum. Thanks!!!
U need to mix it with glycerin before adding it to ur solution
@@Peaceoflagos i did the same i mixed 2gm xanthun gum with 5gm of glycerine and then added to 93gm of water but it doesn't make gel it's runny n flowy consistency like water
Gust Gum works best for me when the water is heated. I use it when I make my body butter cream. I love the comparison ❤❤❤
Hi!! Great video! Your an inspiration ❤️ question, What scale are you using??
You inspire me so much. Thank you.
New subscriber and I just am loving your videos. Well researched and informative. Thank you for sharing. It’s awesome to learn something new.
oh thank you yaya i've been on a diy roll because of the rona and you videos are the best
Let’s Talk Korean Dramas Thank you so much! I am glad to help 😊💜
you are my inspiration yaya! Thank you
Enjoyable content, i cant wait to watch your next video,good work
Love it. You Rock‼️💕
That was a great and simple explanation of the Gel consistency and the various gel agents. I just subscribed... :)
Thank you for this Amazing video .❤
Can I use Phenoxyethanol as a preservative along with xanthamgum ??? Or any suggestions please
Woow this is a wealth of information. Thank you so much for this. Is it possible to put these products in aloe Vera or flaxseed or add any other ingredients to these gels to make them better for the health of our hair? Thank you very much
Hi Yaya! I just recently found out that Lotion Crafters is selling Sodium Carbomer already pre-neutralized so it gells as soon as you mixed it! It seems very inexpensive at least 22$ something for a pound and 4$ something for onzs!
So pleaseeee make a hair gel with it 🙏🏼 I guess it wouldn't have a hold but it would be cool to see what sorts of ingredients you add to it and how it gels and compares to these others!!
Thanks for the video; the guar gum may have worked better in hot water or maybe boiled but I can see why you didn’t so that your test would be consistent x
I really like the clear xantham gum, it reminds me of curling custards and jellies, or even that pre-poo by African Pride. I prefer the stringy, loose texture of it over the solid firm gel you get with the first product but I'll likely be using all three at some point! I really love and appreciate videos like these, they are so helpful for people who frequently do DIY recipes.
Vay Babe I agree with you. They all can be utilized in some way and even used together to formulate a more stable, final product. I will do my best to keep these type of videos coming. I am so happy that they are helpful. 😊💜
can I use xantham gum for lipgloss?
Great work 💯yaya really loving the experiment
Great video! If I wanted to add oils and extracts how would I go about that? For the let’s test it what about different solubilizes?
Thank you so much for this video. I'm about to go down the gum/thickener rabbit hole and was so pleased that you had a video. Question - Can any of these gums be combined. Also, I was so downed when you said that Xantham gum was not an emulsifier. I so thought that it would be. I want to kee it natural but love the viscosity of the synthetic gum. Is there a natural thickner that would produce that result?
Hello ! Thank you for the video ! Would I be able to mix oils with the first powder ?? Also would i need perservatives for the lipgloss ?
Hey thank you so much I'm subscribing immediately... What would you recommend for a thickenner for a clearing shampoo body wash that I'm going to make using more oils than anyone would dream of. Clear meaning its going to be colored but I want transparency. I'm going to combine marula oil, kukui nut oil, argon oil, avocado oil and olive oil. I have some essential oils I'll integrate as well. I want basic meaning as little chemicals as possible and more pure ingredients. I do have pure aloe juice too. I also want to make a matching conditioner using different butters like shea, mango etc do I need different specific emulsifiers for each one? And I really just want to have a thick clearish shampoo and a creamy conditioner. Don't know if I can use the butters in the shampoo and keep it clear, probably not. Also I'm going to be doing hard soap with the same ingredients same oils even the aloe juice but I'm using a base soap that's white and not quite hard enough.. It's made with coconut oil as a base but im hoping the olive oil and salt will make it harder cuz I'm just going to melt it down and add more oil... I have 2 pounds of beeswax too for the soap as well as deodorant I'll be making... also what do you think about making these products with designer fragrances I'm going to do it just to say I did it
Very good video. Well done!
Great information. LOVE IT. What's a good preservative for cosmetic D.I.Y?
Wowwwww this is awesome 😎 Thank you so much for sharing what you are learning with us 🤗🔥🔥🔥🔥
ERE You are so welcome! I am so happy that you all find the videos helpful 😊💜
Hey Yaya👋🏼 #Hype😆🥰
Hi Antonette! 👋🏽😊
Great video, Wonderful comparisons.
Thank you!! 😊💜
Thanks for sharing this....I've been struggling with serums
THANK YOU FOR THIS❤😭
Rickayla Wright Sure thing 😊💜
Best video ever.
Awesome video! Can this be used in the mouth, like on the gums? Thank you!
Nice informative videos yaya
thank you so much
Suuuuch a good video‼‼‼🌟 Thank you!
This is very helpful and informative. I heard that guar gum can add slip? Is that true? I want to make a shea + aloe/flax gel/marshmallow creation w/ ultimate slip. Also when can guar gum be used on its own as an emulsifier and when is it time to go for the BTMS 50? Thanks!
Hi, great video on making gels. Any thoughts on using acacia gum? Would love to get in touch with you to get your thoughts on a natural beard fixer I am researching. Thanks.
Thank you.
Good job.
I wish I could see some result of oil emulsion effect that I was looking for.
Thank you so much, this is really a nice video
Thank you for this video!!
XxafricangalxX You are very welcome! Thank you for watching 😊💜
hello, is it clean or does it can damage the hair? great video!
Hi, thanks for this video....I am trying to create a gel for pain relief using cbd and oil which one of your gels do you suggest I use?
Hi Yaya , if i want to make a clear gel base for glitter eyeshadows(like the lemonhead ones) what powder base you recommend me to use ?
Hello I'm new at your channel and I love it.
Can I add aloe to xanthan gum? And also...all the products that we apply on our hair need certain ph level? Thanks
Hello, im looking to create a shaving gel, i would use the aristoflex, but i would just a lil less viscosity, so i have to mix 0,5% of it? Or i must mix it with xantan gel also? Thanks in advice
Oooo girl thank you!!
omgitstoots Welcome 😊💜
The first one. Can you make a styling gel with the first one, like eco styling gel.
*glass jars vibing on the table*
music: "I GOT BLOOD ON MY HANDS RIGHT NOW"
🤣🤣🤣
HI yaya! I LOVEE YOUR VIDEOS! can you make a flaxseed hair gel with a preservative?
Can u use this in lipgloss base?
Hello love your video. Can you please tell us what preservative you used in this video for the demonstration.
Can you do a part two with the same ingredients but higher percentage? I'm really curious how much it gel up. Thank you
Awesome
Yeaaah
Hi yaya love u and ure videos...tooo educative..could you please do a vid on aloevera gel one tht has a preservative in it
Hi, I love your videos. I find that mixing xanthan gum with glycerin first, before adding the water makes the gelling process, smoother and faster.
Oluwatomiwa Ayonrinde Thank you so much for sharing. I have done it with glycerin, but I didn’t want to add another variable in this test. I wanted it to show each one just in water. I hope that makes sense. Lol
@@YayaDIYCreations yeah. Control all variables 👍
That’s how I dissolve mine too.
What glycerin you use vegetable or ups?
Which one would you use for a face cleanser?
Yaya you are awesome
I just ordered a magnetic stirrer and I wish I would have gotten the one that was a combo hot plate/stirrer and you can get some very affordable different models now
would these be fine to use on the face? like a face gel?
I’ll” be trying this
You are so amazing. Best YTer on here
Wow thank you 😊💜
@@YayaDIYCreations no thank you! You have no idea just how much love and appreciation I have for you. You truly are the best and your channel/skills are out of this world 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️
Can you use the avc for thickening flaxseed/aloe vera gel.
Thanks
Do you have video for using the Xanthan gum
What would you recommend for preservatives?
Dear friend .... its a amazing program and I got and educated around several areas. First of all Im thanking you and I need another advice from you, because of in this period Im doing some experiments for making dishwashing Jelly soap. Let me know plz, can I use this first solution " Aristoflex AVC " as the solution for my dishwash product.
Waiting for your feedback plz .....
Cool vid thanks
Hi with the first batch you made what oils can we use to make glosses please ❤️
Can you use food grade xanthum gum and guar gum for facial products or are they produced differently?
Hello first of all thank you so much ❤️
In my country there is no aristaflex but i need the same results of arista flex so what can i use as alternative
Could you mix xathan gum and Guar gum powder together to get a stronger gel consistency?
Would either of these work with aloe vera and alcohol? I want to make hand sanitizer but I want a gel consistency. TIA and thanks for the video.
29msmoni I believe they all will work fine with alcohols depending on percentage used. However, I know that Aristoflex AVC can be very sensitive. It does not work with Aloe Vera, salts in general; like hydrolyzed proteins. I hope this helps.
In the food industry you often use xanthan gum and guar gum together, for a synergic effect (i.e. 80:20 guar:xanthan, with heating 80°C for optimal hydration). Maybe that works for your usage too :-)
At the same time in the same beaker ? Then add water ?
Which one is best for every skin type?
