This lotion recipe is so simple and versatile (good for face & body), and is smooth enough for a pump dispenser bottle. Would make a wonderful DIY 🎁 gift for someone special too. Plus, I show how to find the usage rates and how to calculate the proper amount of fragrance for this recipe.

I had to stop and offer a note of gratitude. It hadn't even occured to me that it's already been a whole year since I last made anything new, something I don't already have the recipe memorized for. Then it dawned on me that the last thing I made was a recipe you shared. Now here I am, twelve months and 2,500 miles later (long story) and finally able to get creative again. It's been a long year. Just wanted to let you know how special your channel is, how gifted a teacher you really are, and how gracious it is of you to share your wisdom so freely with all of us. What a wonderful human being you are. Your channel has offered my weary heart a familiar place of refuge, of respite and comfort that I didn't even know I was looking for. Thank you sister. I'll keep you posted on the recipe but I'm sure it'll turn out great. May the Most High bless you and keep you, always.

Today, I am going to follow the recipe to a 'T' today. Thank you, Ellen Ruth for the wonderful recipe...those guinea piglet customers that tried this love, love, loved it!

Good afternoon from Tasmania Ellen I made a batch of your lotion using essential oil my combo Rose Geranium, Frankincense and Patchouli using recommended amounts. I started nice and early and when the postman came with a package he commented on the wonderful smell in my kitchen (where I work) I had just bottle/jar it. He went away very happily with some soaps as I have so many needing to be used. Anyway back to lotion mine seemed a little thicker not quite pourable but luscious creamy so popped into piping back as my small glass pump bottles had smallish neck this worked a treat and spooned into jars. Just tried and it does pump ok the lotion is gorgeous on the skin leaving a lovely silky feeling. So once again Ellen thank you one more Christmas gift ready for family/friends. I also made a face serum last night just enough for me to trial it’s good too.

Hi Ellen! This lotion changed my life. It completely changed the texture of my aging hands. I made it once with the cocoa butter cashmere scent and loved it and then I made a batch to put in a large pump bottle like you did and used the Bramble Berry Cherry Blossom scent. Soooooo good. This scent rices in cp but so lovely and light even at the strongest usage rate for lotion. My husband loves this lotion as well because it soaks in so well. 10 star rating from us for the lotion and you!❤❤❤

Thank you! I hope you enjoy the recipe💕 This formula is great for both face and body (and babies), but reduce the fragrance for face and children.

Thanks so much, I've been waiting for a liquid lotion recipe from you! I'm going to try it tomorrow. Is it okay to use essential oil instead of fragrance?
@EllenRuthSoap
@EllenRuthSoap Жыл бұрын
Great! Yes essential oil would be great in this, just double check the usage rate😉

Can you use Optiphen in body spray? I love watching your videos.

No, optiphen is'nt the best choice for a body spray, it's not very water soluble...

I've pH tested this formula many times in the past, and I'm not overly concerned with pH on basic lotion formulas. Face creams are a different story...

Thank you very much! Do you measure the temperature with the gun before you add the preservative? I use optiphen+ and it says to wait 120° F or bellow. I find that my lotion becomes more thicker and not easy to pour in bottles after. How do you prevent that problem ? 🙏🏼
@EllenRuthSoap
@EllenRuthSoap Жыл бұрын
Yes, it does have to be fairly cool before adding the preservative... Stick blending helps keep it a bit more fluid...🥰

Hello! I love watching this video! It was the first if your videos that ive seen. I am just in the research phase of starting out so i have not actually formulated anything yet so i have one question. Most formulators ive watched use grams when measuring out the components of whatever they are making but i see that you use ounces. Is there a reason behind that?

I'm an oz girl, just habit. I'm trying to include formulas with grams more often as it's a more popular way to measure..
