Guest guest Posted July 31, 2003 Report Share Posted July 31, 2003 I am looking for a recipe using Brown Sugar as a scrub. I did find a recipe that contained Shea Butter, Jojoba, Vitamine E, EO or FO. However, it is in grams and I am having trouble converting that to liquid ounces or teaspoons. Can someone help me convert this? And does anyone have any other brown sugar scrub recipe that they would share? Thanks everyone, Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 31, 2003 Report Share Posted July 31, 2003 Sharon, To glean grams from oz multiply by 28.35. There are 28.35 grams to an oz so 1/2 oz would be .5 X 28.35 or 14.175 grams. Helpful especially when you want to try out a formula. Hope you have a good gram scale. Make sense? You can also go to www.oldwillknott.com, he has a measure converter out there. I think that www.thesage.com does as well. E. Chapman Storm n Rose Creations Bath and Body Products and Custom Candles from " The Land of Ah's " stormnrose@...

Can someone help me convert this? The thing you have to keep in mind is that Grams are a weight measure, not a volume measure like teaspoons or ounces like you would measure in a measuring cup. You can convert to weight ounces, but one ounce in weight is not always one ounce in volume. CJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 Vitamin E is an anti oxidant, not a preservative. It helps to keep your oils from going rancid. You can use the Vit E from the drugstore, just squeeze it out of the capsules. You should also add a preservative to keep your product from growing molds and bacteria, should water be introduced by the consumer.

Can I use Opthimum (spelling) or do you have any other suggestions? I have Avacado Oil but once it is opened I have to refridgerate it.
