Hello. I would like to prepare a licorice extract to treat face pigmentation. What ratio of licorice vs glycerin would you advice me to use to make it really concentrated? Thank you
I would like to purchase the glass measuring cup you are using on the hotplate, and a good candy thermometer. Can you please post a link? Great video, Thanks for sharing!
HI Teeneke your videos are very informative I make cosmetics and cleaning products I would like to learn about soapnuts and making extracts with them and liquid soaps. Can you guys please make a video about soapnuts I know they have many uses and very versatile....Thanks
Glad I found you.I have purslane growing in my raised garden bed(didn't plant it,it just appeared) , and I really wanted to do something with it as it's supposed to have amazing skincare properties. Great, informative video, thank you (I'll report back if all my wrinkles vanish 😊) ✌️❣️🇬🇧
That's great! I'm a beekeeper in Western Australia and I'm planning to do my own propolis extract. Propolis is resinous and quite sticky, I'm guessing I'll need a higher temperature to extract the goodies in it. You are so sweet! 😊
Hello, i read in one of your comment « Heating the material and holding for 90 days » => what i s holding? You meant keep in maceration? Another comment « Heat between 120-125F & Hold température for 48-72hours » => how to hold the temperature for 48-72hours? In another of your comment , you said « you don’t measure the glycerine you used for the material plant » => why don’t u measure? How should we proceed? Is it glycerine with water or only glycerine? Do you measure the PH?
Hey how you doing? First off, thanks a lot for your great work. You are probably helping out a lot of people with this. I have a question for you? Will the extract retain its nutritional value and properties as the original herb in its raw form? Or if not, Is it possible to make an extract of a substance with the same nutritional value as it original form?
You are very good at explaining this! I'm going to try today. I have two questions after watching: Can you explain dried vs fresh flowers for this and oil infusion vs glycerin for flowers when used on face?
How do you dehydrate your extract into a powder...? Is it possible to do it at home? I imagine that if alcohol is used it would evaporate fast and leave a sediment behind...? Thank you for the informative video!
love all your videos. I make my own extract using alcohol and oil with a crock. Never used glycerin, which is cheaper than alcohol.So, I wonder if a crock in warm would be suitable for using 30 days?
That depends on how you're extracting them. If they remain anhydrous, you would not. But if any water is introduced, yes you would need a preservative.
If I wanted to make a face mist with Aloe Vera juice and infused glycerin. What botanicals do you recommend to infuse that would help with oil control?
Hi i'm sorry if my english isn't good enough, But May i ask you, how can i know when this extract is going to be expired? And maybe you have any knowledge about making cucumber extract, since i've read a blog that it should need preservative because of the high water content of the cucumber? Thanks for answering me 🙏
I'm years late to this video. Lol. I noticed no preservatives was used in this. Does the glycerin act as a preservative? If not, which perservative would you recommend?
Thanks for your video and thanks for your time What can I use this for,body butter lotion,shower gel,lipgloss, lipstick??? Please help thanks for your time
@@yankis. I asked them about the flavour and they recommended that you do not eat this as they are making these extracts for creams, lotions etc... But I have read that you can consume VG
@@sehzzy Of course you can consume VG, it's literally in most medicines that contain herbal extracts. You have to use food grade glycerin. Kosher for example. Glycerin by itself has a sweet taste (like cough syrup).
hello wanted to know how to make extract of snow fungus which is in dehydrated form as it is impure we need to wash it , so is it ok to not wash and make the extract or we need to wash & then dry it out.??
Hi there, this is a fantastic question! First thing you want to do is be CERTAIN all water is removed if you are using dehydrated mushrooms. If you extract with alcohol, that is a preservative in itself, so nothing can grow. If using glycerin, it doesn't allow oxygen, and nothing can grow as well. Using either method should filter any impurities if there are any left behind. Again, if using dehydrated mushrooms, you must be certain no water exists. You can always use the powdered version of the mushroom to ensure no water is present.
@@julekhasayyad8121 You'll still need to remove all debris, so a light brushing should remove anything. If you prefer to wash it it is imperative that you be sure no water exists before extracting.
Sister, have you ever made oxytocin? I am very curious about this. How is it extracted from ergot fungus? I really want to extract it myself. Can you teach me?@@EssentialLabsOfficial
@@EssentialLabsOfficialLove hormone is very mysterious. After searching in more than a dozen languages, no one on the entire Internet has prepared it, and there is no preparation method.

Propylene glycol or Zemea can be used as well, if a less sticky feel is desired.

Question . Would sonification (Ultrasound puree) of plant materials be a viable method? (Read up on the process).
Do the plants have to be dry? Could the method be used with fresh plants?
Is there any other way to replace alcohol material for extraction?
Could you do the extracts with oats?
I love this recipe, is Masturd oil works like glicirine
Mustard oil is not a preservative, and cannot be used in replace of glycerin.

Can I add fresh leaves or flowers to the glycerin extract
Hello! Can I add three parts glycerin and one part water? A lot of recipes that are alcohol-free use one part water and three parts glycerin.
If you add water to this, you will most likely have to add a preservative.

That depends on how you're extracting them. If they remain anhydrous, you would not. But if any water is introduced, yes you would need a preservative.

Anything. It's food safe (unless you're using toxic plants). Glycerin extracts have a shelf life of 3-4 years.

@@yankis. I asked them about the flavour and they recommended that you do not eat this as they are making these extracts for creams, lotions etc... But I have read that you can consume VG
@@sehzzy Of course you can consume VG, it's literally in most medicines that contain herbal extracts. You have to use food grade glycerin. Kosher for example. Glycerin by itself has a sweet taste (like cough syrup).
Is this for cosmetics or for eating.?
80 Celsius or Fahrenheit?

What is the ratio of the VG to Herb? We can not see the amount of glycerin used think everyone would appreciate it, thanks.
this depends on too many things, okay? you have to research this yourself. what herb? how strong do you want it... you should "saturation point" ok
Can u heat it and leave it soaking for a time? Like a week or so?
Hi,Have you got the answer?
If yes, please share
Can I use fresh Hibiscus flowers and add Preservative after?
