Chiclet Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Hi everyone Im a newbie here (but not at the soap dish) Im hoping someone here can give me a hand in making a soy whip.I know for a fact this is the ingredient list:Glycine Soja(Soybean) oil, Glycerin, Water, Steric Acid, Emulsifying Wax, Tocopherol Acetate(Vit E) Cyclomethicone, Propylene Glycol, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylparaben and Propylparaben.I have tried eight different varriations and I just cant get it right. A few things about this whip-its DULL, it has no sheen to it-all of mine always look glossy or have a sheen. Do I need to whip longer? I do not have a kitchenaide (I am still waiting on shipment ) its very thick, I can pull off a little bit and roll it along my skin and itll still be a ball until I really rub it in. I have managed to create a version that will hold a ball but when run down my skin it leaves a greasey trail behind it NOT what I wanted.Does anyone have any ideas for me? Oh also this stuff is very spongey, I can press into it a bit and it will spring back. Its VERY cool!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 is this from ky candle? If so, just keep whipping, also helps to warm it gently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I think Chiclet is wanting to make this from scratch.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunny Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 What percentage cyclo have you tried?And don't limit yourself to making it exactly like theirs, you may come up with something even better!For the smooth gloss, I use IPM. I know it's not in the ingredient list, but it's awesome stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I bought some on my last visit with the plan of duping. Well, I relly liked it and with the cost of numerous different formulations I deciced that it would be more cost effective to buy it. They are local to me so I save on shipping and $15 gal is a good price. The stuff is fantastic! Doesn't wash off easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
