    Emulsifying wax

    Thanks! I'm trying to make exactly what you're describing. Light and fluffy the main thing I want is no residue feeling. Thanks so much!

    Emulsifying wax

    Thanks for the helpful information! I've been reading a lot on the topic and that point never came up, so I really appreciate the distinction. :)

    Emulsifying wax

    I'm having a very hard time choosing an emulsifying wax for my recipes. I just don't know where to start. I see good things about them all and a few with some not so good things. Like polywax can be a bit skiddish. No idea if that's true or not. I'd appreciate any info on your favorite e wax...

    Adding a preservative to an already made body wash.

    Thank you I just bought some LEUCIDAL® it is a natural preservative . I prefer to use paraben free preservatives. :)

    Emulsified body butter, but no water.

    Yeah, I agree. Unfortunately this has happened to be before. I bought a body wash that has several ingredients not listed including one that I personally cannot use. They also had on there it was a natural soap with no detergents but it was made with a soap base, it said it right on the bottle...

    Emulsified body butter, but no water.

    I've looked back at the link and see that now! On my jar, it only lists those 3 ingredients so I just thought that was all that was in there. Sorry about the confusion. On the product itself the ingredients are as I listed them. I didn't think to look at the listing to see if they were...

    Adding a preservative to an already made body wash.

    I purchased a few homemade body washes, and I see now that I'm learning about soap making that they don't have preservatives in them. I don't want to weigh in on the debate but for personal reasons, I'd feel more comfortable if they had preservatives in them. Is there a way I can add it myself...

    Emulsified body butter, but no water.

    Thanks for the information! I think that it maybe more or less just not helping the dryness because there is no fat left in the body butter. It's all emulsified. It's such a popular product on etsy too. It's definitely light like I said but maybe it's not making my skin dry it just isn't...

    Emulsified body butter, but no water.

    Thank you for the information! Like I said it wasn't me who made this though. I purchased it from etsy actually. I don't see any reason to put it in either, but it's there. It's definitely a very non greasy body butter so I'm thinking that's why but I'm wondering if that can dry my skin out...

    Emulsified body butter, but no water.

    I'm very much a novice in this world, but I'm trying to navigate it and learn all that I can. I like to make my own simple products like anhydrous body butter. For the more complicated emulsified body butter, I've chosen to purchase one to use while I learn. The ingredients are a follows: Shea...
