What Equipment Do You Need To Make A Whipped Butter?

31/1/2014

 
Picture
In addition to the ingredients you need the following equipment to make my DIY Whipped Butters:
  • Tub/containers - plastic, aluminium or glass; you can buy new ones or just re-use old jars. Old honey or jam jars will work amazingly for this.
  • A scale 
  • Labels
  • A hand-help blender
  • Glass bowls (pyrex or anything heatproof)
  • A pot
  • Spoons
  • 1ml graduated pipettes or a tiny 5ml beaker (can you see mine on the table spoon in the picture? It's tiny)
  • Piping bags (optional)

That's it. It is not complicated at all!

For specific ingredients please look at the list under the recipe you want to make or download  Neno Natural's ~ DIY Whipped Butters Course Ingredients List (look under "resources" on the whipped butters page).

Picture
Why Do You Need The Pipettes?

Pipettes make picking up tiny quantities a lot easier than decanting from a bottle. 

In one of the hair butters I will use a fragrance oil and in another I'll use colour and both of those are easier to pick up with a pipette if they don't come with a dropper cap. 

Pipettes are very cheap and you can actually get them off eBay or Amazon. See links the product links to Amazon. I use a tiny beaker when I have run out of pipettes.

Can You Re-Use Pipettes?

Picture
You're not meant to but you can if you are making products just for yourself. Fill a jug with warm water and a drop of dishwashing liquid then suck the water in and out of the pipette. Do the same using clean warm water until you feel the pipette is clean. 

Also, don't swap and change pipettes between different products. If you used a pipette for a certain colour or fragrance then keep using it just for that product or fragrance even after you clean it. Yes? Great!

"Tame Me" Hot Oil Treatment For Frizzy Hair ~ DIY Hair Recipe By Neno Natural

29/1/2014

 
Picture
The Tame Me Hot Oil Treatment is designed to nourish and condition frizzy hair in such a way that frizziness is tamed. Argan oil is especially reputed to be useful for this function. 

INGREDIENTS
Carrier oils/butters
  • 20g coconut oil
  • 10g crambe seed or argan oil
You can just use 30g argan oil if you want and not bother with the rest.

Essential oils
  • 6 drops rosemary or, even better, rose
  • 3 drops lavender
  • 3 drops ylang ylang

METHOD

  1. Put all the carrier oils and butters into a small glass, e.g. a shot glass.
  2. Microwave in 10 second intervals until full dissolved and slightly more than hand hot.
  3. Add the essential oils and stir.

APPLICATION
  1. Saturate hair with the hot oil especially the tips. Massage into roots.
  2. Put a shower cap on. Blow dry over the surface for a couple of minutes. 
  3. Cover head in a towel or beanie hat for c.10 minutes to trap the heat and promote absorption of essential oils then shampoo out.

STORAGE
  • Use all in one go. 

You can store the oil blends indefinitely but re-heating oil that has already cooled would reduce the function of the essential oils – they do not take well to heat.

"Adore Me" Hot Oil Treatment For Thin or Thinning Hair ~ DIY Hair Recipe By Neno Natural

28/1/2014

 
Picture
The Adore Me Hot Oil Treatment is designed to nourish and condition thin (or thinning) hair without weighing down the strands. The essential oils used are also reputed to help stimulate hair growth by encouraging the flow of blood to the scalp.

I have thin strands on the lower third of head and this blend really helped to condition and soften those strands.

I wouldn't use cocoa butter in a leave-on product for thin hair but as a hot oil treatment will be rinsed off, it's a great time to enjoy cocoa butter's benefits.

INGREDIENTS
Carrier oils/butters
  • 20g cupuacu butter
  • 10g cocoa butter or coconut oil

Essential oils
  • 5 drops rosemary
  • 5 drops cedarwood
  • 2 drops basil or thyme

METHOD

  1. Put all the carrier oils and butters into a small glass, e.g. a shot glass.
  2. Microwave in 10 second intervals until full dissolved and slightly more than hand hot.
  3. Add the essential oils and stir.

APPLICATION
  1. Saturate hair with the hot oil especially the tips. Massage into roots.
  2. Put a shower cap on. Blow dry over the surface for a couple of minutes. 
  3. Cover head in a towel or beanie hat for c.10 minutes to trap the heat and promote absorption of essential oils then shampoo out.

STORAGE
  • Use all in one go. 

You can store the oil blends indefinitely but re-heating oil that has already cooled would reduce the function of the essential oils – they do not take well to heat.

What Are Refined Oils & Butters? Why Are They Refined?

25/1/2014

 
Picture
After a carrier oil or butter has been extracted it is usually refined in various ways to achieve the goals or requirements of a large scale user e.g. a food company or a cosmetics company. 

Refining normally involves high temperature and chemicals. Refining may include some or all of the below:

Degumming

Removal of phospholipids (a type of fat) from an oil using water and centrifugation. This will also result in the loss of vitamins, minerals and the natural colour of the oil (chlorophyll). My research doesn't suggest that they are bad so I have no idea why degumming is necessary. I'll probably need to read further into this.

Bleaching

To change or remove the colour an oil is bleached. This produces a clear oil. Because oils and butters are natural substances an unrefined oil will vary in colour from one batch to the next. If a big company is selling to uneducated consumers (i.e. most people) they would rather just bleach and then dye the oils with a uniform colour. Nutrients are removed in the process.

Common dyes include xanthophyll (a derivative of chlorophyll) and beta carotene.

Deodorizing

The oil is deodorised using steam distillation at a temperature of 232 degrees C (450F) for 30 to 60 mins.

Winterizing

Removal of natural waxes which can lead to a cloudy oil at low temperatures.

Removal of fatty acids or taste and smell

If the oil/fat is bound for the food industry it is frequently refined to remove taste and smell resulting a bland tasteless oil/butter.

In addition, a high concentration of fatty acids can give an oil a bitter taste or even make the oil corrosive. The "acid value" shows how many fatty acids are in the oil. When the acid value is great than 5.0 it can burn the back of your throat and even corrode metal containers reducing the shelf life of any products that are made. 

Caustic soda is used to remove some of the fatty acids. The high temperatures involved in this process kill some of the nutrients and essence of the oil.

Preserving

Addition of antioxidants to extend the life - I'm okay with this.

Replacement of vitamins and minerals

To replace those destroyed during refinement - I am okay with this. It's better than destroying them and not replacing them although not bothering to over-refine would be even better.

Conclusion

A very refined oil or butter will have zero nutrients and will just be composed of various fatty acids. 

However, it can still be labelled as "pure" or "natural" or even "organic" provided it has met those criteria; organic does not mean unrefined, it generally just means chemical fertilisers, pesticides and other artificial chemicals have not been used in the farming of something. This is why I find those terms completely useless. 

It is better to go for an oil or butter that says "unrefined" or at least explain what sort of refinement the oil has gone through so that you know what you are buying. Some refining is beneficial - I am only concerned about refinement that reduces the nutritional value or purity of an oil.

Finally, keep in mind that oils and butters extracted for making cosmetics may not be refined enough to eat!!

How To Tell Good Quality Essential Oils From Bad Quality Ones!

24/1/2014

 
Picture
There are four key factors to consider when you are looking for a quality essential oil:
  1. The quality of the plant material used
  2. The Plant source
  3. The extraction method
  4. Blends - bastardised essential oils

1. The quality of the plant material used

If you are super eco friendly then you may be as concerned about the quality of plant material that you use for beauty products as you are about what you eat.

The best plant material in your case would be plant material grown in the wild, far away from polluting cars and factories and grown without pesticides, herbicides and other "unnatural" stuff, i.e. organic essential oils. Personally, I am not too concerned! I won't pay the premium for organic things that will be applied externally.

2. The Plant source

Some essential oils have different varieties. Sometimes this means no more than the essential oil coming from a different country or region but at other times the essential oil comes from such a different species of the plant or tree that its therapeutic benefits are completely different.

A good example here is cedarwood essential oil.

Picture
3. Extraction method

The best quality essential oils will have been extracted using:
  1. Carbon dioxide gas extraction (best)
  2. Cold pressed citrus oils (best for citrus oils)
  3. Steam distillation (good)

Not so ideal are essential oils produced by:
  1. Solvent extraction - produces a less pure oil because some of the solvent remains behind. If hexane is the solvent used only 0.001% of hexane residue remains in the essential oil; but with other solvents this can be as high as 6-20%. If you can prove hexane then it may be worth using to save some money.
  2. Water distillation - not as good as steam distillation
  3. Maceration - it creates more of an infused oil rather than an essential oil.

Picture
4. Blends - bastardised essential oils

Some essential oils are blended with a cheaper essential oil to create a higher profit for the producer! Apparently this is common knowledge in the essential oil industry and is called "making a soup". 

Of all the things that can impact the quality of an essential oil this is the one that annoys and concerns me the most. When I buy an essential oil I do not want it to be blended with anything else.

Here are examples of common blends that I found in The Aromatherapy Encyclopedia by Carol Schiller & David Schiller:

Essential oil
Lavender
Neroli
Pimento Berry
Rose
Rosemary
Patchouli
Peppermint
Sandalwood
Ylang Ylang
Adulterated With
Lavandin
Petitgrain
Clove
Palmarose
Eucalyptus
Gurjun Balsam
Cornmint
Amyris
Cananga

​To ensure you are getting a good quality oil and that it is the exact oil you want, read the details and make enquires to the supplier if the details are not clear.

How Are Essential Oils Extracted From Plants? (Steam distillation, CO2 Extraction, Cold Press, etc.)

23/1/2014

 
The way that an essential oil is extracted will help you determine whether or not you are buying a good quality oil. If you jump on eBay or Amazon to buy essential oils you will see that some are stupidly cheap - avoid those, they were probably extracted using one of the cheap methods that destroys most of the good stuff in them; or worse, the essential oil may have been diluted with something cheaper oil to increase the seller's margin! Yes, this happens.
Picture
Okay, so how exactly are essential oils extracted from plants?

  1. Steam distillation - produces a good quality oil
  2. Water distillation
  3. Carbon dioxide gas extraction - produces a higher quality oil than steam distillation (the total method is slightly better than the select method for getting more essence out)
  4. Cold pressed citrus oils - produces a good quality citrus essential oil
  5. Maceration
  6. Solvent extraction - produces a less pure oil because some residues from the solvent stay behind

Steam distilled, CO2 extracted and cold pressed essential oils are the purest and best quality.

All the information below this line is purely optional - extras for the super keen mixtress - the process names above are enough for you to go shopping for good quality essential oils.
Picture
1. Steam distillation

Steam distillation is represented in the diagram. It is the most common method used to produce essential oils. Steam from boiling water is used to extract the essential oil from plant material. The steam rises and passes through a cold coil thereby turning into liquid. Essential oils float on top of the water in the second vessel; these are skimmed off and properly separated from the water.

The remaining water is also useful because it can be sold as a "floral water" - floral waters possess many of the qualities of an essential oil and can be used instead of actual water in my DIY Hair Care Recipes.

2. Water distillation

Hot water is used instead of steam. Some plants e.g. lavender do not take well to this method if the are left exposed to the hot water for too long much of the goodness in the essential oil is destroyed. Water distillation can be done under lower pressure to preserve more of the plant's essence and goodness.

Flower blossoms and finely powdered plant material can be extracted well with water distillation.

Both essential oils and floral waters a.k.a. hydrosols are produced using this method.

Picture
3. Carbon Dioxide Gas Extraction

Carbon dioxide gas extraction uses carbon dioxide gas, high pressure, low temperature and expensive equipment to extract essential oils. There are two types:

a. Select carbon dioxide gas extraction

In the select method essential oil is extracted at a temperature of 31 degrees celsius (88F).
  • Plant material is placed in a chamber then compressed CO2 is released into the chamber;
  • As the gas passes through the plant material components are extracted;
  • Pressure is then lowered and the extracted plant material is separated out;
  • The CO2 is completely removed from the extracted material without leaving any behind in the essential oil;
  • The same CO2 is recycled to run the process again.

b. Total carbon dioxide gas extraction

In the total method a higher temperature is used. The essential oil produced contains more essence from the plant is thus a little better than the select method.

Picture
4. Cold Pressed Citrus Oils

This is only done for citrus fruits.

  • Fruits are placed onto a conveyer belt and dropped into a container with knives;
  • The knives pierce the fruit as the container is closer releasing the juice from the fruit;
  • Water is sprayed onto the peel and the pile of mush is the put into a centrifugal container to extract the essential oil. 
Centrifugal just means this thing goes round and round fast. At different speeds you can separate out different elements from the fruit.

5. Maceration extraction

With maceration, flowers (e.g. rose, jasmine) are soaked in hot oil so that their cell membranes are ruptured and the essence absorbed into the hot oil. The oil is then separated out and the essential oil bottled. This is similar to the solvent method but hot oil is used instead of a solvent.

Picture
6. Solvent extraction

With the solvent extraction method plant material is soaked in a solvent e.g. petroleum ether, methanol, ethanol or hexane. The cell membranes of the plant material are ruptured and the essence absorbed into the chemical. 

The solvent is then separated and the essential oil bottled. However, some chemical residues are left from the solvent so the resulting oil is not pure. 

The amount of solvent left could range from 6-20% with some solvents. With hexane, however, the residue left is said to be 10ppm which is a very low concentration; it's equivalent to 0.001%.

Personally, if I could prove that the solvent used was hexane and the price of the essential oil was comparatively low just for this reason then I would be happy to take my chances on this one because I spend a small fortune on ingredients for my DIY Hair Care Recipes.

6 Staple Essential Oils For Making DIY Hair Products!

22/1/2014

 
Picture
I don't expect a newbie mixtress to start off with a huge collection of essential oils from day 1; I certainly didn't. 

In my opinion these are the six most important essential oils for a kinky haired girl:
  • Cedarwood
  • Lavender
  • Peppermint - especially if you have an itchy scalp
  • Rosemary
  • Thyme
  • Ylang Ylang or Bergamot

Except for bergamot I have used all the other 6 essential oils for a very long time. I started using lavender, rosemary & ylang ylang in 2006 for massage. I added peppermint a little later on and when I went natural in 2011 I immediately added cedarwood and thyme because I knew they were reputed to be great for hair growth. 

In 2013, I added bergamot - I love the smell and it's also great for weak, dull or thin hair.

I actually use a wider range of essential oils than those used in my DIY Hair Care Recipes because I have a certificate in therapeutic massage and a Muji burner. The first one (on the left) is the one I have. 

I have always loved citrus essential oils like orange for an invigorating massage and mandarin smells awesome in the burner. However, citrus essential oils can be drying for a dry-haired girl like me. That said, you don't use very much essential oil so they're not a problem to use...

10 Tips On How To Work With Essential Oils Safely - Guidelines

21/1/2014

 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Whilst they have many benefits to hair, essential oils are highly potent so certain rules need to be followed when you are handling them:

  1. Always dilute essential oils in a carrier oil before applying them anywhere on your body.
  2. If you get any skin irritation dilute the essential oil with more carrier oil or apply lavender essential oil. Lavender essential oil is THE ONLY essential oil that shouldn't cause irritation when applied to skin undiluted. Even then, avoid doing that unless you have a burn.
  3. Don't consume essential oils internally or bring them near your eyes.
  4. If you are pregnant or nursing consult a doctor before using any essential oils.
  5. If you tend to be allergic to things do a patch test before using essential oils. Dilute 20 drops of carrier oil + 1 drop of essential oil; rub that on your chest and see if there is any negative skin reaction after 12 hours. 
  6. If you have never used the carrier oil before either, then you might want to carry out a patch test using just the carrier oil first and later another patch test using the essential oil plus carrier oil combo.
  7. If you discover you are allergic to an essential oil, do not use it again.
  8. If you're on medication don't use essential oils as the can interfere with medication - this might be more relevant for massages as essential oils are spread over the whole body. For making hair products it may be okay so consult your doctor to verify.
  9. Light and oxygen cause essential oils to deteriorate rapidly so store your essential oil bottles in a cool, dark place AWAY FROM CHILDREN. In addition, when you are using them don't leave the bottle open for prolonged periods of time.
  10. If you want to make one of my DIY Hot Oil Treatments for a child under 13 years of age, half the concentration of essential oils. That is, instead of 12 drops of essential oil in 30ml of carrier oil use just 6 drops. In all my other recipes I use a 1% dilution so the products can be safely used by children.
