I have a question are the oil previously used oils that was saved after cooking with? Just asking.
You wouldn't want use "used" oils for soap.
@@hassanas.benjamin3818you can perfectly use it. I use and it good for cloths and dishes. not for body
I feel like i am in an science class with a very humble and patient teacher.?.😂😂😂 Thank you ma'am 😊
I really appreciate you showing us when things don’t quite turn out as expected. The knowledge of how to fix it, is priceless. TY ❤
You're welcome, thank you.
Ellie I love how you share when things don’t go the way you want them to and then share solutions. Thank you 🕊
You're very welcome Barbara, thank you :)
I loved this one too. Thanks for hanging in there and helping me see how to fix a mistake!’
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking Hi Elly looking to break into making soap in the video soap making for beginners can you tell me what dimensions are this molds please are where to get said molds help please 🙏
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking❤
Me too.❤
I like your quiet and soothing manner. You don't grate on my nerves. Thanks
Thank you, I love that.
I really like it when someone shows mistakes and solutions. Thank you 😊
Thank you.
Thank you for showing the whole process and the results of a mistake. The extra length was worth it.
Thank you, all my videos are long haha :)
Fabulous. You answered lots of my questions that i didnt know how to ask. 😂 Great explaination of the mysterious, soap calc. Many thanks from Ireland, Brenda
This was absolutely wonderful. I learned something new in watching this. You are awesome Elly. By the way, your videos are never boring, ALWAYS informative, solid, full of insight and engaging. Thanks!!
DeDe, thank you! Best feedback I've heard in ages. I really appreciate you sharing it :)
I appreciate you showing 'fails' and especially how to fix them. One of my first batches (before YT was such a goldmine of info) turned out quite similar to this batch. Not knowing what to do and not wanting to risk unsafe soap, I threw it away. Big ouch!
Thank you too for the info on citric acid. Looking forward to a special video on its uses.
I absolutely love the way you explain everything, and your always calm, soothing voice.
Love from Missouri, US!
Thank you so much Maria, that's truly wonderful feedback. Glad you enjoyed this.
I'm new to this, this was so much FUN!
Yay! I loved this one too.
Here's what I do with my 'laundry soap' if anyone wants to know (it's a washing powder recipe for the washing machine - I've been using it for years) ruclips.net/video/4dufZ7efqbQ/видео.html
And here are the instructions for working out your own recipe using up old oils, including how to calculate the citric acid amount www.ellyseveryday.com/ellys-everyday-blog/how-to-make-soap-using-up-old-oils
Happy formulating!
As much as I love soap, it's pretty bad for washing machine. It's great for the dishes though.
@@alystairmabloch401 me too, I keep those laundry bars for washing dishes, they're good for grease and saves plastic.
@@alystairmabloch401 I've tried it and soap didn't work for my laundry, but if works for someone then good.
@@dinarusso3320 it really shouldn't be used for laundry at all. Overtime the residue will clog the machine which won't clean properly anymore... It's a good idea on paper but it doesn't work.
Thank you so much for sharing not only your successes, but your “learning moments” as well. It’s never a failure as long as you learn something from the circumstance. I am planning to make my first batch of soap soon and I learn a lot from folks like you who are real! God Bless.
Love watching your solution to a mistake. I had the same problem but dumped the batch. Thank you.
Thank you for showing us how to fix when things don't go as well as we won't, and thank you for being down to earth and show us everything. You are the one that made me comfortable in my journey of soap making.
That's wonderful, thank you.
This is great! My first time making soap was kind of frustrating and hard to know what I did wrong. Love How well you explain everything. Just made another batch today and I'm happy with how it turned out. Thank you :)
Thank you for teaching us how to fix this.
Thank you for showing the whole process, ESPECIALLY the saving the batch possibility!! That was sooo helpful and calming, to know, how to find out, what went wrong and how to fix it!! Thank you so much!
Thank you, Ellie! Good mistake you made, so I and everyone will know what to do when it happens to us! Thank you for being humble enough to show the vulnerabilities of any kind of work! You're great! Love, from Brazil!
Aww, thank you Zoraia! Love that feedback, much appreciated.
THANK YOU for sharing this! I thought this video was great... it not only gives another idea for how to use up some supplies but also how to pivot when it doesn't come out quite right. Thank you for creating this channel 💜 (I'm in the US btw).
Thank you Lady Si! I love that feedback, I'm so glad you enjoyed this so much. Yay!
I just wanted to leave a quick note how you have made my life a little bit better. I discovered your channel about 6-8 months, ago. I used to purchased KIRKS CASTILE soap, exclusively. Now, I make my own. I can’t say it’s a “born again” experience, but it’s enjoyable. I don’t want to sound like a freak, but I think of your channel every time I climb into the shower. I’ve used your recipes and never had a failure. THANK YOU!!
Ah, no worries at all Charles - I get you completely! Making my own soap had that effect on me too. Thanks for your kind words :)
Thank you Elly I enjoy watching your soap making - I am learning so many Magical tricks from you those mistakes its a great lessons for me too
Oh thank you!
Than you for your awesome videos. You are one of the best ever teachers for soapmaking❤😊❤
Thanks so much 😊
Elly: Thanks for showing your errors, it gives us much needed info on how to recover from those mistakes we are all bound to make from time to time. I have a lot of soybean oil I would like to turn into laundry soap.
Thank you so much, really helped watching how a soap calculator works
Thanks for showing how to fix errors in soap making.
Thank you for explaining things so well. Love your videos
Hi from Florida USA. Your video was so timely. I just had one of hose kind of mishaps with some soap. I was hoping that given enough time it might work out. Now I know what to do. The soap is in my crockpot as I’m writing this. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and expertise with those of us that are less experienced.
Hi T B, that's excellent! I do get a lot of emails about this, so I knew it would be a fortuitous mishap in the end. So glad it was so timely for you. Hi from Brisbane :)
Brilliant. Thank you very much for the detailed education.
I love watching your videos
Thank you
Thank you for posting your opps. I learned more from watching you fix it, than I have watching tons of other videos!
I so appreciate this video. Thanks for taking the time to educate and teach us even more.❤
Every detailed and thorough. Thanks for sharing.
Searching for cornstarch hacks, and you are very helpful as well... just learned about cornstarch for cleaning cooking oil...
I love the way you explained everything. Thank you for that. Have a blessed day.
Just what I needed, thank you for your amazing content ❤❤❤❤❤
Am I still watching? Of course I am! Honest, informative, cute video. Thank you Elly.
Thanks for the corrective lesson.
I really enjoyed the video and didn’t mind the length. It was a good topic. Thanks for letting us see what you did when your soap didn’t turn out like you wanted.
That's such great feedback, thank you! Very validating for me. I appreciate it.

Thank you Ellie enjoyed watching I have been making soap for six years . But learnt something new today.
This was perfect!! Mistakes are just unexpected lessons and they are needed for "future" us as well so thank you.
Absolutely! I treasure these opportunities. Actually made this video more interesting I thought :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I loved this - the trouble shooting is amazing to watch.
I love and appreciate your efforts. It helps us to know what to do when things do not go right for us. I feel you are amazing. The citric acid added to your soap answers questions I wondered about. And testing the unsafe soap is a true blessing.
Just watched this video though it was made a year ago. It’s just as valuable today. I’m new to soapmaking. (Started a year ago) and I’m terrible in math lol but I rewatch your videos several times until I finally get it. I’m getting there though slowly. Thank you for sharing your time with time with soapers that are just learning.❤
Thank you for your lovely feedback, Candace. I know you'll get there, trust the process and have fun. ❤
Well done Ellie, that could happen to anyone and now we know how to fix it. Thank you. 👍😉🇮🇪☘️
Thank you very much for the beautiful video and information.

Thanks for not being afraid to show us everything ;)
Thank you so much for showing when things don't go quite right, and how you fixed it! I've never made soap, mainly because i've been nervous. I think after watching a few more of your videos I'll be ready to actually try!
Hi Elly thank you so so much for everything you do all the way from Namibia. I tried your 100% coconut oil soap and it worked wonders. I'm having just sunflower oil and a lotle bit of coconut and olive oil..I'm going to pause and try to really follow your instructions to create a soap. I'm a very much newbie but my first ever soap was a big success. Thank you from the bottom of mu heart.
Thank you Rochelle!

It wasn’t long at all! I LOVE your videos! 🥰
Hi Ellie it was great! I loved watching the video - and all the way to the end! 😃. Not bored at all, it was really informative to me and fun to see how to fix the lye heavy parts, by cooking it again. I find watching soap making so therapeutic, as is your voice. Wonderful! Thank you 🙏🏻
Oh thank you Lisa! Glad you enjoyed it :)
You have a different way of making soap. I really enjoy
WATCHING you!
Thank you Jessie!
I have been learning so much from you! You have the heart and soul of a caring teacher. Love your work !
Thanks so much 😊
Thank you, ♥️ I appreciate your channel, video wasn't long when learning how to. Your an amazing tuber🤩
Thanks for the interesting and informative post! I watched it at the end of a long and trying day and as always your calm cheerful voice was the perfect note to end my day on. Also I learned some new things for my soap making adventures! I’ve been making all our soap for a decade now but there’s always things to learn. Thanks again!
That's wonderful Audra, thanks!
Hi Elly, this tutorial inspired me to make my first batch of soap with leftover oils. The soaps had a whitish film on top and some grainy crystals - probably lye that wasn’t dissolved. I cooked them up today, 2 days after the initial pour, and am really happy with the cooking. I can understand how hot process can be relaxing. The only challenge was guessing how much extra water to add to the pot. For my small 3-bar batch, which is a mild cleansing soap, I added teaspoons of distilled water. Thank you very much for the tutorials!
Totally enjoyed the tutorial...
Awesome, thank you!
Great video, thank you.
Never enough long don’t worry I love your videos and your way to show us all your tricks thank you I always lean something new ❤
That is lovely. Glad you liked all my videos, thank you so much. :)
This is brilliant! So good to see how you solve problems along the way! TFS!
Thanks Charne!
Hi Elly, watched your video this morning the morning after making soap that went horribly wrong. All my fault. Put too hot lye mixture in to oils then when I realised trace was rapid I hurriedly moulded up my soap and put in oven heated to 170 then turned off before putting the soap in. So too hot mix went in to hot over. What a mistake to make. This morning I have a blistered burned mess. Well that was a lesson on patients.
I am so cross with myself as the colour blend for my orange Halloween soap was perfect. I’ll wait longer for the lye mix to cool next time. Boo hoo 😢
I love your videos as you show us things do occasionally go wrong but to carry on and fix it if you can. Lots of love
Thanks Kim
Great video Elly. Also love your attitude about whole situation. Finding humor in mistakes, instead of kicking oneself, has me laughing at myself quite often. Wish all mistakes had such a simple fix;). Thanks Elly.
Thanks Kathy, keeping it real is my philosophy :)
I fully enjoyed watching the whole process. Thanks for sharing the entire process
You're welcome, I always share the full process in my videos :)
Love your vids, bingeing on them like a weirdo stalker lol. This was so informative as a newbie soaper and had same problem, so thanks for taking the time to teach us how to fix. 😛
Thank you, another very interesting video. It’s good to know that even the experts can make a mistake. And when that mistake happens to me, I know how to fix it.
Very very good presentation ,you great
Thank you very much. I love your natural approach. I have never rebatched so it was great to learn.
You're welcome Christine, thanks for the great feedback.
I am quite new in soapmaking, so all your videos are a fountain af knowledge to me. I love every minute and do not find your videos long. Thank you for sharing your expertise and love for soapmaking.
♥️☺️
Thanks so much Kirsten!
Thanks. Learned a few things. Worth the long video
Thanks :)
