blueisland Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 Hi everyone,Could someone explain how the different butters and oils work. I see all of these recipes for body butters ect and I can't figure out how to figure out percents. I want to just play around with a small recipe for a body butter or whip for myself . I have shea unrefined , cocoa prime pressed natural, mango, candelilla wax (cosmetic grade) soy butter , and some oils. Is it 60% butters 40 % oils? I'm just clueless as you can tell. Any enlightment will be very appreciated. thanks in advance amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovelyLathers Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 Here is a link that might help you out as far as any questions you may have. If you do a shearch of body butter you will come up with a lot of great threads on it. As far as the oils you use and the butters that depends on what you want to use. I like doing mine with shea butter, avocado oil, jojoba, and olive oil. But everyone has different oils they like to use. There is a lot of info in the threads if you do a search as to what others like to use. http://www.candletech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20635&highlight=whipped+body+butter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
