Key ideas in Crafting Your Own Body Butters and Scrubs
- A hard butter provides the solid base
- A liquid oil adds spreadability and moisture
- Cornstarch or arrowroot powder cuts the greasy feeling
- Hard butters like shea or cocoa are necessary for a solid structure
- Liquid oils remain fluid and cannot hold a whipped shape on their own
- Identifying the three essential components of a basic body butter
- Understanding the structural role of hard butters versus liquid oils
- Higher butter ratios create a stiffer, more heat-stable product
- Higher oil ratios create a softer, more 'melty' and greasy feel
- Ingredients must be melted together to blend fully
- The mixture must be partially solidified (semi-solid) before it can hold air
- Whipping is the final step to create the airy, butter-like texture
- Predicting the sensory outcome of different butter-to-oil ratios
- The process of combining ingredients to achieve the correct final texture
- Too much liquid oil prevents the mixture from setting firmly
- Hard butters are the primary 'thickener' in the recipe
