1. Introduction: Welcome to DIY or rather MAY make it yourself
ripped body butter costs. In this class, we
will cover the basics of making a simple
body butter formula, expected shelf-life,
storage tips, some carrier oil and
essential oil options. Bless some troubleshooting tips. If your body butter
turns out too greasy, grainy, soft or hard. Are you ready? Let's get started.
2. What is Whipped Body Butter?: When I say ripped body butter, I am referring to a
product made with a cosmetic butter
arbiters of some types, such a shear butter, mango, but the cocoa butter carrier
oils such as sunflower, coconut, Juju, grape
seed oils, etc. Sometimes hubs such
as Kandula dangling. I'm sometimes essential
oils for send. Every so often you will see Odessa be described
as a body butter, but it will have a
water ingredient in it, like water, hydrocele,
allo, herbal tea, etc. Those can be lovely to use. Two, I consider them
more of a cream. In this class, we
are talking about body butter is made only
with oils and butters. Nothing water-based.
3. Basic Equipment: All right, how does
one get started with making body butters
for their own use, as well as to give as
gifts for friends, or perhaps even ones that can be solved for some
extra pocket money. You begin with the right tools. After all, no job
gets stand right? If you don't have the
proper equipment for it, the things you need
for this is pretty basic and most can be
found in your home. Number one, storage. For this, you will need
some glass or plastic jars. You can also use aluminium cases you will leave to
sanitize these, of course, to make sure that your body butter remains clean. Seconds sanitization. This can be done
through a process called boiling water bath, which basically
requires you to immerse the jazz in water then
bringing it to a boil. This should take no more than
15 minutes and should only be done on the day you are actually making
the body butters. Third, scales are
measuring spoons. These are pretty
self-explanatory. You will need these to properly measure out your ingredients and make sure that
you're not going overboard with any of them. Too much or too little
of one thing can lead to a body butter that's too
soft or too firm to rip. A stand or a hand mixer. You will need this for ripping the body butter into
its proper consistency. And electric mixer will
do the job faster, of course, but a hand powered one shouldn't
be too troublesome. If you have the energy and
time product or double boiler. For this, you just need to plot one smaller than the other, but with fit snugly on
top of the larger ones. You will need to
fill the bigger pot halfway with some water before placing the smaller one over it. This nice little contraction
would allow you to heat your materials checked
leave without scorching them. Six, a glass bowl or any
heat proof container. As your ingredients will be hot. Seven gloves as a safety
precaution, of course, for when you're handling hot
objects and piping bags. These are optional,
but if you want a mess free way of getting your body butter into the jars, then this would be the
best way to do it.
4. Basic Ingredients: Butters used in body butters. Shia butter is a fat that's extracted from the nuts
of the sheer tree. It's solid at room temperature and has an off-white
or ivory color. It does have a heavier feeling and it's more prone
to getting green. The center of Russia, butter can be overwhelming. So to find shear butter is most often used in body butters. Mango, but it absorbs into your skin faster
than shear butter. So it's a good choice if you're trying to make a lighter
feeling body butter. Cocoa butter is a fat that's
extracted from cocoa beans. Undefined, cocoa butter is
darker than shear butter. With the brown node
or coffee tend to it. And then natural
centers, unmistakable. It has a strong chocolate, send it to find cocoa
butter is usually used in body butters and is easily absorbed into the
top layer of the skin. Other factors that
can be used at avocado butter and cocoa
butter oils and body butters. One of the most common
complaints about body butter is that it
can feel too heavy, oily, or greasy on your skin. To some extent, body butters
are going to be naturally rich because it
made with butters and oils and there is no
water to lighten them up. However, the type of
liquid or you choose can make a huge difference in how heavy or light your body, but it is heavy oils and ones that take a longer time
to sink into your skin. These include olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, macadamia oil oil, avocado
oil, and castor oil. By lighter oils are ones that soak into your
skin more quickly. They're good oils to put in your body butter to make it
feel less oily and greasy. These include grape seed oil, fraction, coconut oil, oil, rice bran oil, apricot
kernel oil or gas or oil, hazelnut oil, safflower oil. Then also some medium oils which absorbed into your skin more
quickly than heavy oils, but might take a little
longer than the lighter oils. These include sweet almond oil, hemp seed oil, Chia seed oil, and pumpkin seed oil. It is a good idea to combine
this with a lighter oil too. Next up, tapioca starch. It can help taken the homemade body butter and isn't excellent absorbing agent. Alternators to tapioca starch, odd root folder and cornstarch. And finally, a sensor noise. Essential oils will add natural fragrance to
your body buttons. Some of my favorite essential
oils to use our laboratory. Sweet orange
supplement, geranium, rows and sandals would I like to use about 0.5 to one per
cent of usage rates, which means not more than two
or three drops of 50 grams. One last thing, preservatives. You do not need to add a
preservative to body butter. Preservatives fight
bacteria and mold, which shouldn't be
a problem as long as water isn't introduced. You may want to add
an antioxidant. Antioxidants are
ingredients that help keeps it from going too quickly. They won't help with
mold or bacteria. Anti-oxidants for body
butter include Vitamin E, Rosemary at the oxygen.
5. Storage & Shelf Life: Stored in the body butter. It is best to store
homemade body butter in amber or cobalt glass jars that are airtight.
Clear glass jars. We'll also work if
they're kept out of direct sunlight and
away from direct heat. Placing the jars in direct
sunlight promotes oxidations, which ruins the body butter. Many times homemade body butters We'll begin
to warm and melt, causes them to lose a
disk like consistency. There is no need to panic and towards the body butter out. If this occurs, simply
place it back into the ureter and we've lived
until it develops the disease, consistencies, lines again,
shelf-life of body butter. Since most homemade body butters don't contain a preservative, this shelf-life is less than that of commercial body butters. However, trying to
pinpoint the exact life is difficult since each
body butter recipe contains varying ingredients. A good general rule
of thumb, however, is to keep the body butter on refrigerated for
up to two months. Placing the body butter in
the fridge will increase its lifespan but causes it
to become a bit too hard. Instead, keep the body factor in Nepal room and use
within two months.
6. Whipped Body Butter: So here's a small video of
how to Omega and body butter. I'm using some
cocoa butter here, some Shia butter,
some coconut oil. For somebody who's
in my coconut oil had some coffee grains in it, I guess from the time I was
using it to make a scrub. But I guess that's alright. And I'm using some
light olive oil. All these ingredients are in
my double boiler container. And I'm going to
put it up on heat. Make sure it's on
low to medium heat. You can see that the butter isn't already started to melt. Now I'm going to add in some
sandalwood essential oil, Sandy Hook essential all is perhaps the most
prevalent of oil. Next up, I'm going to transfer the oils into or he
proved container. I'm going to let
it cool down for ten to 15 minutes before
I put it in the freezer. And I'm going to let
it be in the freezer for about 20 to 30 minutes. If taken it out of the freezer
after about 30 minutes, as you can see,
it's pretty hard. It's going to make
my job very tough. When I'm ready to whip. I'm using a hand mixer here. It took me about 20 minutes
to wrap the whole thing. You can see in green. Here. You can see it's a bit hard. I need to blend mode. So end result should be a
butter cream like texture. It looks just like it.
For that butter cream. Real quick. I think it's a bit
too greasy for me. So I'm going to add a bit of corn starch and don't
have tapioca starch. You can also use Adobe product. It all together. That's perfect. Absorbed very quickly
into my skin. It did not stay
greasy, oily at all. I'm going to translate
it into a small jar. It smells. And
there you have it. You're simply
ripped body butter.

piping bags on hand, you can make a makeshift one. Also consider printing out a custom label that
