Natural Skin Care : Recipe for Homemade Hand Lotion

[MissPepperberry]

Thank you! You're lovely and this video is great.

[purpletigar]

The Orange juice won't go bad?

[Snake1n]

1:04 the way she’s saying the word ’’good’’ O_o

[TheBeckieBelle]

Wouldn't it be easier to just BUY a hand lotion.

[missoprah]

is this real?? i mean does it last 4 long?!

[LOATODAY]

This video was too short. Not sure why OJ was added. There are some essential steps missing to make a lotion. You may be able to whip a creamy butter. But not so sure about a lotion. Should have shown the consistency of the product at the end.

[victorialoveseric]

What is this products shelf life?

[erinthecitymouse]

Lotion is an emulsion in which you bind oils and water together. There is no emulsifier in this recipe, this is not lotion.

[BALDMAXXX]

You are adorable! Thank you for the great recipe.

[NaomiChambers]

Half a decade?? Why not just say 5 years....?

[cdnbrowngirl]

@NaomiChambers that's what I said

[NaomiChambers]

@cdnbrowngirl

half a decade seems pretentious

5 years is real

[harshagal]

well, once i refrigerate this cream turns hard and when i keep it in room temperature the juice separates from the butter. this looks bad. pls suggest how can this look consistent ?

[Neudahl]

hi, I just found your videos and I love them !!!! could I use glycerin as a preservative?

[erinthecitymouse]

@Neudahl glycerine is not a preservative

[TwinzOfOMG]

Can you replace the olive oil with extra virgin.

[kaunas88]

@TwinzOfOMG yes, even better.

[TwinzOfOMG]

@kaunas88 Thank you!

[DeathByStiel]

I can make homemade hand lotion too! All it takes is a little elbow grease. ;)

[synchrogrl18]

how is this lotion? It's an oil blend, which is cool, but is not lotion.

[iloveyoucdrew]

what would i do if i wanted to use a different essential oil...will i still use the orange juice?

[tranhoanghuan]

@iloveyoucdrew : the orange juice is for the purpose of healing and providing vitamin C for the skin , and the orange essential oil is to enhance the taste .... but i recommend trying the different combinations , it's up to you to choose the best final taste of the lotion .

[WANTONSOUPGUY]

im going to use it on toast.

[Tangipony]

I HAVE A REALLY IMPORTANT QUESTION!!!:

--Can it still work if i replace the cocoa butter with almond oil?

PLEASE ANSWER ITS URGENT!!!

[tranhoanghuan]

@Tangipony : i think it will work

[ToenailfungusCure22]

It is an antioxidant that helps to protect the skin from the harmful action of free radicals, delaying aging skin.

[bodygourmet]

wheatgerm is also a great preservative as it is the richest oil containing vit e. Also you can use grapefruit essence or lemon.

:)

[erinthecitymouse]

@bodygourmet none of these are preservatives

[Solimariabella]

"for over a half a decade" lol.... that was hilariously worded

[goldifoxxx1]

@Solimariabella lol

[therapeutics23]

@Solimariabella yeah is that like 5 years and 3 days???? lol

[Porfyrh]

shouldn't we use biological stuff?u know the stuff from the factory i mean will it be this good?i don't trust products from super market

[TayTaypak]

can you use throughly melted shea butter

[johnston1228]

her homemade recipe calls for cocoa butter? so why add the extra and have to wait. she should label it how to make your lotion scented...

[bubblegril]

will it go bad ?

do i have to put the lotiong in the fridge?

can you show us how to make a lotion with out the oj in it please?

what is the oj for ?

[1dread2dread]

im just guessing but the oj is prob for preservation aside from the obvious good traits

[apatte4975]

@1dread2dread thats what i was thinking. since o.j. contain citric acid which is a known preservative.

[jpopcurrymusic]

yay great thanks for the tips!!!!!!!

[raindrop1982]

will this need to be fridgerated??

[Mikou71]

Whenever you mix oil and a water-based ingredient together, it is best to refrigerate it, unless you add a preservative.

[blueberry2118]

yes, she state to put it in the refrigerator. I say whipped it, because it you whip it you will have a more creamy effect.

[islandmamma]

@raindrop1982 Vitamin E is a preservative you could pierce a few capsules and add it to your recipe.

[maracuchita83]

using oj means you would have to make very little at a time, and keep it in the fridge, right?

[OmorosePanya]

Check the expiration date of the orange juice and try to use the lotion before that date. I imagine you have to keep it in the fridge though. It doesn't seem like a handy onthego lotion, but maybe just a household thing.

[Knnrm]

thats cool

[sky60622]

when putting orange juice in it does it have a exp date and if i use fresh fruit what would be the longest i can have and used it
