jwahlton Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Wow, I'd love to stick my fingers in all of them! Did you add oils and FO's or just whipped the butter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebcandles Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Looks yummy. what type of colorants do you use? That must be refined shea right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann Posted December 21, 2005 Author Share Posted December 21, 2005 They're all refined shea expect the lavender scented whip. I colored w/ liquid B&B dye/colorant, pink is pink sugar (I added vanilla stabilzer), creme color is warm vanilla sugar (vanilla stabilizer again), one green, the real light one, is pears'n berries (smells AWESOME) the other is the peppermint foot shea the only one I have the label on right now. Not looking forward to labelling 30 +jars. Brown which I colored using cocoa powder is devils food chocolate and the purple is lavender scented- I used the unrefined shea from Leslie's co-op. The lavender is unrefined shea and shea oil with no preservative-el natural- I forgot to add the preservative so now I'll have a variety . The others I used a variety of other butters and oils (mango, sunflower oil, sweet almond oil, coconut oil frat.....)Jwahlton as you can tell for above I do use oil and FO- I've never tried whipping just shea- do you and if so how does it compare to shea w/ the oils added (fluffier, stiffer, etc?)

Glowlite Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 They do look like tubs of icecream. I really need to make some of this stuff. My daughter has the driest skin this time of year and regular lotion she says burns to much and she ends up washing it off. You've inspried me I think today will be a wipped shea day for me.
