Hey everyone! This video goes over how to "punch" capsules for homeopathic herbs. I just want to make absolutely clear that there are herbs that can hurt you, as well as some that may counteract with prescribed medications, so if you want to pursue making your own capsules DO YOUR RESEARCH! :)

#makepaint #watercolor #iridescentpaint Hey everyone! In this video, I'm making more watercolor paint! These pigments are meant to be iridescent, and complimentary to your paintings and a full pan of each is for sale on my Etsy page :) (8/22/21) I have revamped how I make paints - I hope to make a video soon! (pay no attention to the "updates on Wednesdays" text - this is an older video and I haven't rediscovered when I will update.) I used: Interference Purple (pan 1) Canyon Sunset Mica (pan 2) Gum Arabic in premixed water/preservative solution Glycerin Honey Cornstarch Titanium Dioxide Connect with me: Fine Art America Profile: https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/liz-holding.html Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/leftbrainliz Etsy Soap Shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/leftbrainliz Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/leftbrainliz Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/leftbrainliz Equipment: Video - iPad Pro Audio - Blue Yeti Microphone Editing Software: Power Director 16

Hey everyone! In this video, I'll be making a batch of soap from the grease that I refined from the last video. I didn't want to make a pure lard soap, as I've done that before and I didn't like how it turned out. :( BUT, I'm adding beer to the soap! Beer can add such a nice luxurious quality to soap, most likely due to any wheat proteins isolated out from the cooking process.

#pharmacyschool #pharmD *UPDATE 8/4/21* This video was made after my first semester of pharmacy school in December/January-ish of 2019/2020. SO much has changed, and I plan on making an updated video on all of this. stay tuned! Hey everyone! In this relatively long-winded update, I'll outline some of the things I've been up to during school as well as a few tips on how to navigate your first semester of pharmacy school. Granted, I don't cover EVERYthing, otherwise this would be waaaay long.

#cloudbread #glutenfree #breadsubstitute #easyrecipe Hey everyone! In this video I will be showing you how to make gluten free cloud bread! It's super easy with 3 simple ingredients: Eggs, cream of tartar, and cream cheese (or greek yogurt). The final bread has a nice "bread like" texture and is a great substitute for those who can't have gluten. For a dairy free version, try cream cheese or yogurt substitutes For a vegan option, substitute vegan cheese or yogurt and use aqua faba instead of eggs! if you don't know what that is, it's the liquid you pour off a can of chick peas (or garbanzo beans). I haven't tried this, so I can't vouch for ingredient for ingredient success. I'll be honest, I'm not that big a fan, since it does have an "eggy" flavor, but it's a viable substitute for people that can't have gluten. :) Connect with me: Fine Art America Profile: https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/liz-holding.html Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/leftbrainliz Etsy Soap Shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/leftbrainliz Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/leftbrainliz Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/lizzycookieasmr Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/leftbrainliz Equipment: Video - iPad Pro Audio - Blue Yeti Microphone Editing Software: Power Director 16

#vangoghwatercolor #watercolor #artswatch Hey everyone! In this video I'll be testing out some new interference colors from the Van Gogh brand. I love Van Gogh because they are affordable, with pretty good quality. I have only ever really seen interference paints from Daniel Smith (not that they don't exist elsewhere, but DS is a big brand), and I've always wanted to try them, but can't justify the price tag on a paint that I will not use as frequently. So, imagine my delight to see Van Gogh bringing interference colors to their line! The link below will take you to Dick Blick's inventory of Van Gogh colors. There are so many new ones! (scroll down to see the individual tubes, not the sets) Paints: https://www.dickblick.com/products/van-gogh-watercolors/ Interference Blue Interference Violet Interference White Connect with me: Fine Art America Profile: https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/liz-holding.html Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/leftbrainliz Etsy Soap Shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/leftbrainliz Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/leftbrainliz Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/leftbrainliz Equipment: Video - iPad Pro Audio - Blue Yeti Microphone Editing Software: Power Director 16

Let's explore the rendering of bacon grease into lard for making soap! This is great if you happen to eat a lot of bacon, but don't know what to do with all the grease (or feel it is a waste to pitch like I did). After rendering the fat, you don't necessarily need it to make soap, you can use it for anything you would normally use lard for! ***I HIGHLY SUGGEST that you be a pro in the kitchen to do this because it involves boiling grease. As you should know, grease is highly flammable and create a catastrophe if you are not extremely careful!*** Connect with me: Fine Art America Profile: https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/liz-holding.html Etsy Soap Shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/leftbrainliz Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/leftbrainliz Facebook: @lizzycookieasmr Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/leftbrainliz Equipment: Video - iPad Pro Audio - Blue Yeti Microphone Editing Software: Power Director 16 #bacon #renderingfat #bacongrease #soapmaking
