Transcripts

1. Welcome: Welcome to DIY body. But of course, if you haven't used body butter before, you're in for a treat, it's like butter for your skin. Homemade body butter isn't easy DIY project for anyone. It's so simple. All you have to do is melt and whip lovely butters and oils together. And Lola, beautiful body butter. Are you ready? Let's get started. 2. How to Make Whipped Body Butter?: A basic whipped body butter generally requires two to three basic ingredients like shear butter, cocoa butter, oils, like coconut oil, almond oil, or her Hoover oil. You can add essential oils are fragrance oils as per your requirement. And finally, a thickening agent like corn starch or adult root powder. This is generally used to reduce the greediness of the body butter. But again, this is optional tool. When it comes to equipment, you will need a double boiler, a hand blender, or an Electric blender. Weighing scale, measuring spoons or rubber spatula and containers to keep your body butter in. Please remember that because this recipe is oily based, the oils butters may melt if stored in a warm environment. Therefore, it's best to keep this body butter in a cool, dry place. Then if the oils begin to melt by any chance, you can refrigerate the butter and reread. It, is stored in an airtight jar in a cool, dark place. The body butter will keep for up to six months. 3. Shea-Cocoa Body Butter: Let's make our shear cocoa body butter. Really begin by taking around 50 g of defined. She Alberto. Now I'm going to be adding, I don't 25 g of refined cocoa butter. And now I'm adding 25 g of Jojo but oil. You can use any light oils like olive oil or sweet almond oil. You don't want to use coconut oil because the butters are already heavy and they will, adding coconut oil will just make it more greasy and heavier. So we just want a good balance there. So a light or like Jojo about olive oil, sweet almond oil would help. I've placed it on my double boiler. You can keep starting in intervals to hasten the melting process. You can see that the buttons have started to melt. Keeps doting. I've reduced the heat. We're almost there just little while more. And we're done. I'm going to transfer it to a heap proof container. I'm going to let it cool down a little bit on route and future before I put it in the refrigerator for about 30 to 40 min, I've taken it out of the refrigerator now and I'm going to start ripping it. You want it to be in a semi-solid condition before you start looping. Now because I have quantity of butters and oils, It's not going to be very easy to whip. But it doesn't mean that I will not be able to do it. We're going to keep repeating until it reaches a fluffy texture out of whipped cream texture. Now, depending on certain videos, it can take time to whip. In some ways, it would take very little time. And during winters, Good. Take a lot of time. I've added a little bit of cocoa powder to give that color to our cocoa Shia body butter. If you want, you can also add an essential oil if for fragrance, but that is completely optional. I'm going to just try it a little bit. It's perfect for me. I'm going to transfer it to a container. And this is good to go for about two to three months. In the wind. Does 4. Wild Rose Body Butter: Let's make a while draws body butter. For this, I'm going to take around 50 g of refined shear butter. On one 50 g of refined cocoa butter. Few drops off Rose hip Oil, a few drops of rose geranium oil, and a few drops of roses and Shell Oil. About half a teaspoon of those specular powder and half a teaspoon of pink lip out. I've placed it on my double boiler and now I'm just going to wait for it to melt. Now, if you want, you can add dry draws battles, but that is completely optional. Now you can see that the buttons will take a while to melt. That's because I'm making this and winters and cocoa butter is dually difficult to melt during certain seasons and bed those. And also because I've taken such a large quantity of cocoa butter, I'm gonna keep starting it occasionally. To hasten up the melting process. Does a really nice fragrance of rows. Now I'm going to transfer it to our heat proof container and let it cool down on room temperature. Before I put it in the Federated for 30 to 40 min, I've taken it out of the refrigerator and it's in a semi-solid condition. And that is when you can start whipping. You don't want it to be too hard because that could really make it very difficult to whip. You want to continue looping until it reaches that fluffy texture, that whip cream like texture. Now this is certainly easier to work because there's a lot more quantity in this bowl. It's already looking quite creamy and fluffy. Desert whipped cream like texture that we were aiming for. Now I'm just going to use my eyedropper spatula to combine it all together. We're trying a little bit, if you like, it's a bit too greasy for me. So I'm going to add it on to the spoons off gone flower. You can also use adult or powder or tapioca starch. This is done to reduce the greediness of the body butter, but this is completely optional. Just combine it all together once again. Try it again. Now it's perfect for me. And when and transfer it to a container. I was able to do such containers. There you go. Already. Good to go for your entire winters. 5. 1 Week Later: These are my body butters a week after I read them, this is my shear and cocoa body butter. Look at how smooth texture is and how easily I'm able to apply it on my fingers. I absolutely love it. I also added a little bit of essential oil later because I thought the smell of cocoa butter was too strong. This is my ripped Wild Rose body butter. As you can see that it is hardened up a bit. It's not as smooth as the cocoa butter. I believe the reason behind this is that I added clay to it, the pink clay. You can skip it. It's not really that bad, but of course it's not as smooth. She or cocoa body butter. But they're both beautiful and I love them. I love the fragrance, I love how it feels. 6. Conclusion: Thank you so much for watching. I hope you enjoyed this course. The next step is to try these recipes at home and shared with the rest of us. I also want to know how each of these recipes turned out for you. Did you use the same ingredients or whip something up off your own? Looking forward to your projects.
