Re: liquid talc recipe

October 7, 2002

Here is the recipe for liquid Talc. My sister and I did it a bit different

though and it turned out ok. We did not put in the clay and we used

lavender scent instead. It is a thick cream consistency and feels so good

on the skin. But this came from another list I am on so I can't take credit

for it LOL. And the first batch I made I did with the aloe vera styling gel

it did not set up. My sister had bought reg aloe vera gel and it worked

just fine. But she had bought some hair gel to use for body glitter and she

decided to try her gel when she got home and it worked (price is $1 versus

$5) we compared ingredients and mine had sodiums in it and hers did not. So

I am going back to $ store to pick up some so I can finish making what I

need :-) . Glitz

Liquid Talc Version

1/2 cup distilled water

1/2 cup cornstarch,

Kaolin or French Clay,

1 cup Aloe Vera Gel

Baby Powder Fragrance

1 tablespoon glycerine

Vitamin E

Mix water and powders together until it makes a

smooth paste. Then add aloe

vera gel, glycerine and FO until mixed well.

Made 1st bath bombs and other things and foot mud

from kitty litter

> Well my sister and I made bath bombs and other things yesterday. Had a

tired day but enjoyable. We did the bath bombs, we did liquid talc, and we

did a foaming vanilla bath oil. I also did a foot mud below is the

instructions for that. We had so much fun. I wanted to try making

something that was out in the 50's called fizzes it was a drink tablet

(anyone remember that?). I knew it was made from citric acid so when my

sister brought it in first thing I did was taste of it. Soooour stuff LOL.

But it is also what our kids sours are rolled in. I put some extract in

with a bit of the citric acid to see what the reaction would be--I did not

want it fizzing before I wanted it to. The extract does not fizz it.

Glycerine does not fizz it. So I will be experimenting making pop rocks and

drink fizzes.

> I have debated about putting this on this list because I figure some of

you might not understand. But I will anyway for the sharing with those that

will understand and want to try it. And let me also tell you I have done my

homework--I have called the place that makes the product and they told me

that it is 100% pure fullers earth. The person I talked to said that it

comes from deep in a mine in Ga.

>

> The product I am talking about is cat's pride kitty litter (unused of

course LOL). I make foot scrub out of it. I buy the bag that has no

additives in it 100% natural. What I do is pour about 1/2 a bag of the

kitty litter in a BIG bowl and cover with water to just over the top of the

kitty litter. Let it set overnight and then the next morning start putting

it in my food processor to return it back to clay. Works great.

and tried it and it works. I know that I am a bit unconventional for most

of you guys but hey--that is what makes the world go round. I don't sell my

products and my friends and family like what I do so I am ok in doing it my

way LOL. And I would never do something that would endanger my family and

friends so I check things out.

Glitz,

What is the purpose of liquid talc? I find I am attracted to the idea of

liquid talc but don't have a clue what one dose with it! :-)

Hi Glitz - Thanks for posting your recipe for liquid " talc " . I must say I

was concerned when you originally posted because of the health issues

regarding the use of " talc " . Your recipe, however, does not contain any

talc. It appears to be more of a liquid powder. I am correct in reaching

this conclusion?

yes you are correct

Use it like you would regular talc. After you bath apply this to your body.

It leaves you silky feeling. I love it !!! It is not sticky nor does it

turn white on your skin. Try it you will like it LOL. Glitz

I hate to sound dumb, but I will anyway. Here goes... Is it a moisturizer?

Do you put it places skin might rub against skin and chaff? Do you put it in

your shoes to keep your feet dry? Is talc more for people with dry or oily

skin? Would I use it in place of the oil I slather on after I shower?

Thanks for my education. :-)

Ah ha! I think I am beginning to get the picture. So this is something that

people in hotter or more humid climates might like for comfort?

no the recipe did not say how much clay to use. We left it out and it

turned out just fine. Glitz

I used is just as I would body powder... I used it after exercising to dry

up moisture when I went walking during lunch at work, Used it in those lil

private areas in the summer to prevent dampness... Just use it like you

would powder cept it doesn't go flying everywhere it wasn't meant for. AND

it makes you smell really good!~

I just had an idea...what about adding deodorizing e.o.'s like lavender,

anise, cypress, eucalyptus, coriander, cedarwood, lemongrass, etc. for a

lotion that dries to a powder? Or a deodorizing foot lotion?

Now I understand. Thanks Joyce. I do occasionally use baby powder and just

hate the way it flies everywhere, especially in my nose.

awhile back, Bath and Body works had some liquid talc that was wonderful,

but they replaced it with something else kinda like it, and it's just not

the same. it's absolutely wonderful here in Texas
