U HAVE REALLY GORGEOUS SKIN! GOES TO SHOW THAT U DONT HAVE TO SPEND A TON OF MONEY ON PACKAGING AND NAME BRANDS TO LOOK GREAT THANKS FOR SHOWING WOMAN U CAN LOOK GREAT ON A BUDGET!
I loved your cream can you please email me the ingredients. I had problems hearing the preservative and one or two other things. Where are the best places to buy ingredients. It looks great. You were very professional. Thanks.
Thanks for all of your videos! I enjoy watching them! I bought some ivory shea butte and I noticed that it has a crisco smell. It also smells like playdoh (clay). Is this how shea butter is supposed to smell? Thanks!!!
@GLoDowns No, shea utter is suppose to have a very nutty smell, some people don't like the smell so some companies put it through a process to get rid of the smell, but a lot of the good stuff is lost too.
Does it leave your skin really soft? Also, what was the preservative called that you used? Please write back, I want to get the preservative but don't know what it is called. Thanks.
I bought a whole load of Mary Kay products for my uneven complexion and oily skin and it turned my skin dry and didn't clear my skin. I purchased shea butter for my hair and used a bit on my face and by the next morning, my skin was glowing, supple and I could see a visible difference in my complexion. In a few days, I should have a face as smooth as a baby's bottom!
can u eat shae butter? cause i was finna make some pancakes but we aint go not oil or no butter in the crib...and i aint finna waste no gas goin to the store cause i need that lil bit of gas to get to work monday ya feel me
Please, let me know how the cream looks like after the modification. it's not easy to make the cream as she mentioned in this video. this is my 2nd attempt :-|
Hi, I have made exactly same way following your method but instead of water, I used Aloe vera gel juice (I keep in refrigerator) and Rose Geranium floral water. I also used following oils: avocado, perilla seed carrier oil, jojoba and apricot kernel. however, I end up with liquid oil cream :( I used a hand blender). Please, let me know what I did wrong. Thank you :)
@OOMMAINSTAR looks like we made the same mistake. I used jojoba/apricot for my oil mix, but also used a hand blender, I think it's adding to much air. I've got tiny little open spots (bubbles?) in my mix. Im going to melt the product down and then let cool and use a stick blender (still dont have a regular blender) Its that or the fact that there is more oil then water in the recipe. That was the only other option I could think of, add 1/3 more water/juice so the mix is 50/50
I made this recipe but I must have done something wrong. This cream is not light, it's VERY oily and just sits on my skin, an hour later, and my skin still feels greasy and oily. The only thing I did differently was to mix the oil and water while it was warm with the bowl sitting in another full of ice to cool it down. And I used a hand mixer instead of a blender (dont have one) Can I reheat everything and use a stick blender? Should I wait for that mixture to cool before I use the blender?
I had allergic reaction with commercial creams and finally have to go natural. Just wondering where in Kenya you buy your ingredients? I live in MN but will be traveling home soon. Also where did you buy your commercial blender?
I am going to try this but I couldn't understand the sugar based preservative that you used! Could you please send me the name so I can complete my trial of this moisturizer solution?

HI Duchess - I am wondering what type of wax you use to emulsify? I have been using beeswax with almond oil, cocoa butter & coconut oil. Although I really like my product, I find the stickiness of the wax all over the basin of the sink & tub. Do you think maybe I am using too much oil, or is it the beeswax? Thank you so much for sharing your brain!!!! I really appreciate how open and giving you are with your knowledge.

I think Water based creams or homemade stuff need presertatives, use Rosemary oil i guess check the link of Natural Preservatives ------ hope that helps
Oh dear please can you write every thing you have used to make this cream . My english is not very well so i couldnt understand some oils u have used . This cream is look fantastic so i want make it as wel . Thank you so much
Hi, thank you for sharing the ingredients of your natural Shea butter face cream. Also, I so love your fabulous hair style. I found the style I am looking for. I just wanted to know how do you style your hair?
And I also very much enjoyed your video on the difference between shea butter & yellow shea butter (African butter) - you are very informed:)) Thank you again for sharing - you are a pleasure to watch!
what preservative did you say ? I was going to make this and get all the ingredients together I cant find cosmococa ? Is that what you said if so where do you get it ?

Your great! Loved this video.Thank you. I used Aloe Vera and Coconut Oil before (not at the same time) but found out that they are not good for for my blood type (B+) although I used them all the time when I was growning up in the Carribean.
hi! i just ordered all the ingredients and i'm gonna make this stuff tomorrow...but i have a question ...how big is your mesurment cup cuz i don't have a cup like that so maybe i can use something else? it looks like a 100 ml cup...am i right? please answer me cuz i don't want to mess everyhting up...thanx !
@YankeeChapleau ..Hi Tim, I think all the vendors I mention under the 'Black soap shampoo" video ship to Canada. Online purchases might be your best bet, I think. Hope that helps.
Hey Tim, not to be a product shill, but i love all the kynk products they carry a range of ultra natural products - AND fair trade raw shea.... If you are in the GTA, noah's carries most of their range, but they ship also. It is a GTA based company and their products (from raw shea to shampoo) are amazing and high quality. I dislike the other cdn brands that sell the refined shea products... check out their site hope you find it useful!
Hey all, I too had many questions and fortunately found her video that gives the recipes. However, youtube is not allowing me to post the link. The name of the video is "Shea Face Cream Ingredients" and it is posted by the same youtuber, DuchessGabrielle. Enjoy :)
hi i love your videos! i just purchased Argan oil from a company named AAA Shea Butter have you heard of this oil or and company. I would really like to know what you think.
Hey there, i was researching a little about Cosmocil - the preservative you mentioned. What i found is this: PLEASE NOTE: this preservative cannot be used in beeswax-borax emulsion systems nor in natural liquid soaps. It will harden, and become gooey brown.´´
Did you face this problem while using together with beeswax ?
You are such an inspiration! I have never heard of the things you mention in your video :S Would you mind writing down the recipe? :) Pretty please :D
I going to make a batch of this face cream for my family..my children have eczema. Can you please tell me the name of your natural preservative and also the silky white powder that was used. Thanks for your tutorials
I thank God for you! I've experimenting with making my own hair and body products this year and the only thing I've yet to fine is moisturizer recipe. I've been using grapeseed oil and most of the time it works fine but tho my skin is the oily type I sometimes get oily looking dry patches if that makes any sense.lol But I think its because my face needs water as well and your concoction may be just what my skin has been waiting for. Thanks for making this video as well as the black soap video!
@lumina6045..I change my suppliers a lot for this reason. Under my Black soap moisturizing shampoo, I have a list of vendors that I like. I will see where to put this list on my page so everyone can have access to it....hope this helps..
thanks so much for this video! i've just made myself a batch and tried it earlier this morning and i'm already in love. first application and my skin is already glowing like i had natural highlights. :) please upload more skincare concotions! :D im a fan!
@AnythingShimmery...Great! I am glad it was helpful....People are amazed when I tell them I make most things I use on my body and hair......It is so rewarding to know you are only putting the purest of nature's gift on your temple...Yaaaay!
@msgigglesbaby ....I know what you mean...Sometimes even I get lazy....I might sell it someday.....I don't know....right now I am just experimenting....
Thank you so much! I just purchased 25 lbs of shea butter and I'm looking for as many tutorial as possible so I can incorporate what I need. Can you do a shea butter body lotion tutorial?
@ttdean.....Thanks hun! For that, all you would have to do is increase a liquid oil or the water phase so the consistency of the end result is more liquid and flowy. It's tricky though because you have to still balance everything else. I will see if I can a lotion once I am finished with this batch.
@whatoyou...Mostly my face is dry so it will be heavy for oily face. You could swap the liquid oils for oils that are more for oily face like flaxseed oil, rosehip oil or grapeseed oil. These will be moisturizing but not oily hence perfect for oily and acne prone skin...Hope this helps
However, Though you get your products from africa (lucky you!) , it could be great if you can give a reference to where actually to buy the shea butter .That will really help a lot for your watchers .

@mishmish8500 ...Thanks a lot. I have began looking into sellers here in the US. I will buy a small sample from a few that I like then make a recommendation once I test the butters. This way at least I can advise. I think this is the best approach....
owever, Though you get your products from africa (lucky you!) , it could be great if you can give a reference to where actually to buy the shea butter .That will really help a lot for your watchers .
I am really excited to try this shea cream recipe! I have a few questions, can I use a hand mixer instead of a blender? Also approx how long (shelf life) do you think this mixture will last w/ the Cosmocil? Thanks so much for all of your wonderful and helpful vids! :)
@ValleyGirl38....If you use a preservative, it will last like any other store bought cream. However, I will advise to experiment in small batches because a simple miscalculation could shift the balance of the ingredients and facilitate the product going rancid much faster. I am on the final stretch of this batch and no issues with it
@joanolisa1...Oopsy, sorry. I get that a lot (I speak too fast). I used E-Wax which is short for emulsifying wax, specially formulated for mixing oil and water...You can use regular bee's wax though I like the E-wax better.
NOTE if you have blackheads shee butter might be a very bad idea

Hey all, I too had many questions and fortunately found her video that gives the recipes. However, youtube is not allowing me to post the link. The name of the video is "Shea Face Cream Ingredients" and it is posted by the same youtuber, DuchessGabrielle. Enjoy :)

Hey there, i was researching a little about Cosmocil - the preservative you mentioned. What i found is this: PLEASE NOTE: this preservative cannot be used in beeswax-borax emulsion systems nor in natural liquid soaps. It will harden, and become gooey brown.´´
Did you face this problem while using together with beeswax ?

I thank God for you! I've experimenting with making my own hair and body products this year and the only thing I've yet to fine is moisturizer recipe. I've been using grapeseed oil and most of the time it works fine but tho my skin is the oily type I sometimes get oily looking dry patches if that makes any sense.lol But I think its because my face needs water as well and your concoction may be just what my skin has been waiting for. Thanks for making this video as well as the black soap video!

Thank you so much! I just purchased 25 lbs of shea butter and I'm looking for as many tutorial as possible so I can incorporate what I need. Can you do a shea butter body lotion tutorial?
ttdean 1 year ago
@ttdean.....Thanks hun! For that, all you would have to do is increase a liquid oil or the water phase so the consistency of the end result is more liquid and flowy. It's tricky though because you have to still balance everything else. I will see if I can a lotion once I am finished with this batch.

is this cream good for oily face?
whatoyou 1 year ago
@whatoyou...Mostly my face is dry so it will be heavy for oily face. You could swap the liquid oils for oils that are more for oily face like flaxseed oil, rosehip oil or grapeseed oil. These will be moisturizing but not oily hence perfect for oily and acne prone skin...Hope this helps

Hi, like your videos , very informative.
However, Though you get your products from africa (lucky you!) , it could be great if you can give a reference to where actually to buy the shea butter .That will really help a lot for your watchers .
Thanks! and keep on making this fantastic video

@mishmish8500 ...Thanks a lot. I have began looking into sellers here in the US. I will buy a small sample from a few that I like then make a recommendation once I test the butters. This way at least I can advise. I think this is the best approach....

I am really excited to try this shea cream recipe! I have a few questions, can I use a hand mixer instead of a blender? Also approx how long (shelf life) do you think this mixture will last w/ the Cosmocil? Thanks so much for all of your wonderful and helpful vids! :)
ValleyGirl38 1 year ago
@ValleyGirl38....If you use a preservative, it will last like any other store bought cream. However, I will advise to experiment in small batches because a simple miscalculation could shift the balance of the ingredients and facilitate the product going rancid much faster. I am on the final stretch of this batch and no issues with it
