Thank you so much!

Thank you so much

Making soap is so much fun. Recipes are expressed as percentage so that you can make it any size you want. First you will need to use a lye calculator/soap making calculator. I used the paid version of Soap Maker 3. They also have a free version. There are also many more online calculators. You will enter the size of your soap mold, then enter in oils/butters with percents and you will get the amounts to use. Check out this video, it is an easy swirl design. ruclips.net/video/O5Xz00qsmng/видео.html You can even to this with just one swirl color. I hope this helps.

@@SEAandCLEANsoap You're awesome 👍👏🙏 Thank you 🤗

Thank you!

Thank you. I make all my soaps by hand. I sell my soap on my website, SEAandCLEANsoap.com.

Thank you for mentioning this. I mixed the clay in a plastic cup.

@@SEAandCLEANsoap with a metal spoon.

Wow! What a mistake on my part. I am sorry. Here is the correct percents: BASE OILS: Olive 45.8% Babassu 27.5% Kokum Butter 6.0% Shea Butter 13.2% Almond 7.5%

Thank you. This soap is 5%.

Thank you

Thank you very much!

You can use micas, ultramarine color, and natural colors such as plants and clays to color soap. Please check with the supplier to make sure the color is ok to use in cold process soap.

The essential oil blends as expressed in percentages because the amount depends on the amount of oils used for your mold.

Thank you! The mica used in this soap is from Nurture Soap, now called Nurture Handmade. There website is nurturehandmade.com/ I used Rapunzel and a mix of Rapunzel and Yellow Vibrance.

@@SEAandCLEANsoap thank you

Thank you so much!

Glad it was helpful!

@@SEAandCLEANsoap it was amazingly eye opening!

Sorry about that. Here is the recipe: BASE OILS: Coconut Oil 30% Shea Butter 15% Almond Oil 10% Canola Oil 15% Castor Oil 5% Rice Bran Oil 25% ADDITIVES: EO: Lavender 35% EO: Rosemary 23% EO: Bergamot 31% EO: Geranium 11% LYE & WATER: Lye Discount: 6% Water/Lye Ratio: 2.7

@@SEAandCLEANsoap The ration is 2.7 and not 1.7? Good for you. Rosalie

A lot of soap makers use a percentage for determining the amount of water to use. I find it easier to use a ratio. Most of the time I use a ratio of 1:1.7. This means that I take the lye amount and times it by 1.7 to get the water (liquid) amount. Sometimes I will use a ratio of 1:2. This means the water amount is twice the lye amount. I use SoapMaker for my lye (soap making) calculator. Not only is it a lye calculator it also keeps track of my supplies, recipes and so much more. SoapMaker is not free, but the one-time price was more then worth it. There are many free lye calculators available in English, but I am not sure about French. I guess if you do an internet search you will find one. Each of the calculators come with instructions on how to use.

@@SEAandCLEANsoap thanks you so much

Thank you! 😊

Thank you!

Thank you! You too!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you!

Thank you! If understand the process and safeguards needed for handling lye, then this soap is no different. The worst that can happen is the design does not look good. It still will be useable soap! There are many RUclips videos that show the basics of soap making.

I've made tons of soap just not on that design level. At some point I believe it transcends soapmaking a d goes into art.

Try it. I have tried many designs and some of them do not turn out as I had in my mind! But that is ok, because these bars are used in our house and by family and friends. Start with a simple design. One of my next videos will be a simple swirl. The video will be published in about 2 weeks.

Thank you for watching. The instructions for making the mold are in another video, ruclips.net/video/bWJn2mMQW6o/видео.html The container is from a supply that I used up. I love re-purposing containers. The superfat/ lye discount is 4%. For the water and lye amounts I use a ratio, usually 1.7. This means the water amount is 1.7 times the lye amount. I hope this helps.

@@SEAandCLEANsoap désolée mais je viens juste de découvrir que l'on pouvait les faire sois-même. Je n'ai donc aucune connaissances dans le domaine. Je ne sais pas non plus quel produits ont utilise pour la lessive ni leur dilution. Je ne connais vraiment rien du tout et comme j'ai deux enfants je ne peux pas me permettre d'erreurs au niveau des produits. Bien à vous.Rosalie

Thank you. I do not know if this has a name. I was inspired by ombre/gradient/side wall pours. And, then did my own thing!

Yes, any colors. Sparkles are great too!

Thanks for watching!

Please do!

Yes, you can use this recipe for any swirl technique.

@SEAandCLEANsoap thank u so much. My batter gets too thick to pour, and I'm no sure if I should add more oils or what. Part of learning.

To achieve fluid soap when pouring the most important thing is not to use the stick blender too much. Stop blending when it is just mixed. Then divide and color. Then if needed you to stick blend more. This is something that I am always working on! There are many other reasons. Such as your water amount is incorrect, the recipe does not have the correct amount of unsaturated oils, temperature of oils and lye and the scent you use.

@SEAandCLEANsoap thanks for the info. I thought my temp was too high, but my niece was helping me on my last batch and she kept forgetting to tare. Will plan on making another batch tomorrow alone. Lol

Thank you!

I am happy you enjoyed it!

Thank you!
