Artificial snow from shaving foam sticks pretty well

But winter is not eternal, and it passes - there is no trace of snow, and children still want to plunge into and feel the magic and joy associated with it. So that our kids will not be discouraged, there is a wonderful way to return part of that fairy tale that everyone misses - to make artificial snowballs, let a small piece of memories remain in their souls. This mass of snow does not melt, making a little snowman out of him and looking at him afterwards, there is always a desire to smile and return to childhood ourselves. A recipe for artificial snowballs will help with this.

What is needed for this

Making snow is easy. Your daughter or son can mix the ingredients themselves, but only under your direct control. As soon as everything is ready, they will not be overjoyed with this miracle and will be proud that they made it themselves.

Watch what the children are doing, you cannot leave them alone, because the kids are active, they learn the world around them and things in many ways. So that they, in no case, taste the ingredients - this can lead to hospitalization.

To prepare the snow mass you need:

• soda powder - 1 pack;
• men's shaving foam - 1 can.

To make the snow mass look more interesting and beautiful, additives in the form of sparkles can be mixed into this mixture. So, a snowman made later will look fabulous, the younger generation will definitely appreciate it. In general, you can add a lot of things - what imagination is only capable of. Give the kids the opportunity to choose what they want, because this idea is for their sake. They will really like the idea, and they will get down to business with enthusiasm, they will be able to open up and prove themselves. Knowing then how to make artificial snow, they will remind you of this every time and ask you to help them.

Subsequence

First you need to choose a container where all the components will be mixed: deep dishes, or you can even take a bowl, the contents will be better mixed in it. It depends on how much mixture is supposed to be made.

The container must be dry, without moisture residues - this can affect the final effect of the product made.

An artificial snow mass must be prepared in the following sequence:

• Make sure that the container in which the ingredients will be mixed is dry.
• Pour the entire packet of baking soda into a container.
• Add shaving foam.
• Stir the entire contents until a mixture is evenly formed.
• Add sparkles if desired, and knead everything again.
• Now you can sculpt a snowman.

Do not mix sharp and prickly small parts into the mixture so as not to damage the skin. Pay attention to what exactly the child wants to add.

The snow made with your own hands turns out to be cool due to the chemical reaction of soda and foam, this causes even more delight in kids. That said, it also smells fresh, depending on which shaving foam is used in the recipe. For a variety of flavors, you can add different aromatic impurities, for example, lemon juice.

Security

Sodium bicarbonate and foam snow consists of chemical components, albeit not the most dangerous, but nevertheless, you need to take precautions. Since the children themselves may want to take part in the entire cooking process, they must be monitored and not left alone. In case of accidental contact with the eyes of the components - immediately rinse the eyes with running water. After finishing the preparation of the mixture, and sculpting a snowman or snowballs from artificial snow, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. If the child is very young, be careful not to taste anything.

After all, winter is not always snowy, and there are places where there is no snow at all, and all children want a piece of magic. Kids need our attention and support, and if it was a son or daughter who offered to make artificial snowballs, they should not refuse, it can be very important for them.

And even if you have to use dad's shaving foam and mom's pack of soda powder from the kitchen, but nothing can replace the joy and sincere smile of the child. Children are priceless, and once again, this simple recipe will allow you to see their joy and delight from the extraordinary snow miracle.

It has already been described in great detail. But it is better to see once than hear or read a hundred times. This time there will be a visual instruction with photos.
At the same time, the German shaving soap "Tabac Original" bought the day before will be tested.

For the test, tap water is required, we have it quite hard,
as well as the most common ceramic bowl, badger "silvertip" from Hans Baier and soap:

We collect water in a bowl, degrees 50 C, put a shaving brush inside,
we grab it by the edge with a handle, and let the bowl warm up for a couple of minutes and the shaving brush to soak.
Pour the water out of the bowl, shake the shaving brush lightly.
We collect soap in a circular motion:

If there was more water in the shaving brush, something like
first foam, it could be transported into a bowl.
But this time it was done without her.
After this procedure, the shaving brush looks like this:

I think there is enough soap in here. Although someone loves less,
some more - a matter of taste. We begin to rotate with a shaving brush over a dry bowl:

A bit dry. Add a little water, maybe half a teaspoon:

We continue to "beat":

Let's add some more water:

We continue to work with a shaving brush, we are already slowly approaching
to the finish line:

While the process took about a minute. Let's see what happens
if you add some more water:

We continue to beat and see that there are more bubbles,
they themselves have become larger, the foam is more liquid:

If I did everything correctly, i.e. kept on whipping,
without adding the last portion of water, it would be the other way around.
In general, there is too much water in the foam.
But it doesn't matter.

Squeeze the foam out of the brush
skipping the brush between the thumb and forefinger,
and place the foam in a bowl. There is almost no foam left on the brush.
Let's take some more soap with a shaving brush
quite a bit, (in principle, you could take a pea of ​​shaving cream).
And we continue to stir for another 40-50 seconds.

And now we are almost at the goal, the shaving brush no longer falls if you put it upside down with the handle:

Foam bubbles are much smaller, foam has increased in volume
and became thicker and smoother.
A few more brush strokes and the result looks like this:

the foam has become even smoother, there are very few visible bubbles,
and the foam is drawn into the mustache. Perhaps a little more and ready:

The conspicuous bubbles disappeared altogether. I am quite happy with the result.
Everything about everything took a little over two minutes.

Now a few words about my subjective feelings about the product:
The soap container suits me, the bowl is made of ceramic, which is very good,
plastic cover, made of hard plastic, does not fit snugly,
apparently to make the soap breathe. By the way, you can buy soap without a bowl a little cheaper.
Soap whips into lather easily enough, smells very nice,
reminds of some smell from childhood. The foam is quite stable,
(although sometimes it is even more stable), it had very pleasant sensations on the skin, and the razor glided well.
After shaving, before applying after shaving, there was no discomfort, on the contrary.

UPD: I tried shaving cream from a tube Tabac Original, quite good,
although quite strongly perfumed.

Shaving cream

Finally, I got a shaving foam that tripled my husband in all respects. And then he was pinched, then slipped badly, then dried. I just couldn't please such a capricious client. And my personal pride was hurt by the failures with these creams. And yet I finished it off. Hooray!!!

Components

• Yarrow hydrolat - up to 100%
• HEC - 1% (you can take guar to thicken the WF and for better gliding)

• Optiphen MIT Ultra preservative - 3 drops per 150 ml

Preparation

Everything is very simple and fast. I mixed LF and VF (heated to the same temperature, emulsified with a mixer. Then I added panthenol, NUF and essential oil. And at the very end - Green surfactant, gently stirring with a stick so that there was no foam. Poured into a bottle with a foaming agent. Done !!!

Foaming agent, ay!

The complexity was in the bottle. Where can I get it? There was no such thing at home. I had to urgently go to the store. Unfortunately, in my general store I found only ready-made foam for intimate hygiene. I didn't need the foam itself. All that was needed was a container. I immediately poured the foam. Because using her hand wouldn't go up. I haven't bought anything ready-made for a long time. And I was unpleasantly amazed at the quality (I don't even speak about the smell) of this Belarusian-made product. Although the composition on the label was decent, and the name is very beautiful. But what disgusting was inside. True, this foam was not expensive. It's good though. But the foam bottle turned out to be excellent. Which is what I needed.
