Seriously, can you answer my FAQ? 😂
I wish I could! Actually, our school district, I'm SO GRATEFUL FOR, because they don't do that. The 8th graders [my son is in this particular group] that had good grades all year [honor roll or principal's list], had a dance / ball last night, but nothing beyond that really. This past week or two, my son has been telling me about all the movies they've been watching. Our district's teachers [and other school staff] make sure all of the mandatory stuff [according to the state and fed. govt] is out of the way before June starts.
You're so fun to watch! I'm going to have to start watching with a notebook
I have a notebook dedicated to note taking for Mrs. S&Cs videos! 😁
Awesome video.. South African Schools are the same.. it's like cramming the last of the syllabus into the term. Project, outings, etc etc especially when every one is tired.. my son got so moody/cranky by the end of the term...
Fantastic info today on the sodium citrate & sodium lactate. You are speedy stamping soaps…I like it. School activities towards the end of the school year are demanding, too many and sometimes necessary. It was an all consuming affair, I’m just glad my kids are past that. ❤️❤️ Take a load off and have yourself a Mega pint of wine. Much love…
Yay, I just love these discussions. Chemical compositions and attributes are just so darn soothing to my mind. 🤓 Thanks!
Yesssss! I will watch this video many times!! Thank you!! 😊
As the mother of 7 and a teaching assistant I can guarantee you, we are just as baffled and frazzled as you are😂. Last week was an all day fishing trip, and exceptional track and field day ( I work in special education) for todays fun we walked 15 special needs kids over a mile to get ice cream. I’m not sure who was more exhausted the kindergarteners or the adults. Plus we are moving rooms so we are trying to pack up EVERYTHING while still entertaining and educating… 9 more days… I CAN DO IT!
You have so much going on!
Yay! Super excited that I had my facts straight. I was afraid you were going to whip out some obscure knowledge that would have made my knowledge obsolete 🤣 You're tricky like that!
Loordee me, yes yes I remember how busy it was when my girls were school age and working full time. Dont miss those days at all lol. This vid was so interesting and educational. Watched it twice and probably have to do a 3rd, 4th lol to thoroughly absorb. Muchly appreciated again.
School events are scheduled at the end of the year just to peeve the parents 🤣🤣🤣
@@TheSoapChef how are you‽ How was/is the vacation?
THIS! 😂
@@MrsSoapAndClay it's literally a thing. Like they put it all off till the very very last second. They complain that students need to stop procrastinating 🙄 but they are the ones teaching kids how to procrastinate 🤣🤣🤣
@@101kurtj I'm so glad our district does NOT procrastinate!!! My son told me about all the movies they've been watching for the past couple weeks.
Thank you for the answer on sodium lactate
Amazing breakdown. Very informative. Tyvm.
The end of the year thing…….
The tests are cos the government/education departments want the tests/stats to apply for funding for the next year.
The field trips are to give other staff members time to write reports.
I don’t know about the rest cos they aren’t done in Australia.
I may have worked in the school system for a very long time😉.
P.S. thanks for this info, perfect timing as usual.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I started using citric acid in my cold process soap and I calculated the extra lye I needed. Some batches turned out perfectly while others turned out crumbly. I was baffled trying to troubleshoot this. After watching your video I realized I was sometimes using sodium citrate and other times using citric acid and all the time adding in the extra lye . They both are in identical bags and I thought I was using citric acid the entire time. Now I separate the bags lol. Thank you,
So glad I listened to this video. I'm about to make a goat milk soap and I usually add sodium lactate to my soaps.
Awesome video...thanks You are very creative 🌹
Okay, so I had to watch this three times. Very interesting! When would you need to use the stronger SC verses the weaker SC?
I do make all my soaps with 60 percent water 40 percent coconut milk I do add just a little sodium lactate tho so maybe I’ll try doing it with out it and see if it still comes out hard but I only use a teaspoon and my soaps come out hard enough
Hey DIVA, what are some of the fragrances that you’ve experienced that changed the final color of your soap?? I’m trying to make a purple and white soap and the creamy vanilla FO totally jacked me up …sigh
Please, how do you mix sodium hydroxide with lactic acid to form sodium lactate.
Very cute little bars of soap and nice stamp.where do you buy your Soap & Clay soap stamp??? I want to buy a personalized stamp, but there are so many stamp makers out there! I would like a good recommendation for a stamp! Please and thank you so much!!!

I get all my acrylic stamps from Alex. Not a single one has broken or chipped or the like. Top notch!

Yeah… slow down and many a reply 😆 this is right on time.
Since sodium lactate is liquid.should I reduce the water measurement by the SL wt. before add lye to the water?
This maybe a dumb question but for a hard bar can i add a little bit of sea salt in order for the bar to harden or is it mandatory sodium lactate
Salt works well! Just keep in mind that salt bars tend to harden SUPER fast, so cut them within a day of pouring!
Can we add citric acid, sugar and sodium lactate in same batch?
Hello...Can sodium lactate be used as a thickener in liquid hand soap? If sodium chloride is used in liquid soap, why can't sodium lactate?
5:10 Do you stamp the soap when they have just coagulate or how many hours later?
6:00 Is lactic acid the same as vinegar or pickle or different? Is making sodium lactate at home impossible?
6:40 If cold processed soap always slimy, is it because I don't put sodiul lactate in it?
I'm late to this party, but...everyone says add sodium lactate to the cool lye in cold process. Does it really matter if it is added to hot lye or the oils?
Its probably because everyone left it for last minute and teachers need to do certain thing thru out the school year so there evaluation turn out good.
My daughter got out of school a couple weeks ago but she’s still going to cheer practice from 8 am to 4 this is so dumb we still can’t go do much it’s summer they need to chill 😂
Seriously!
SL is also supposed to add fluidity to HP soap. I use it, but don't notice much of a difference.
That’s mostly been my experience using SL for that purpose as well.
@@MrsSoapAndClay - I get better results when I add yogurt that I mix with sugar.
How much of sodium citrate do I add to my soap and do I add it to oils or lye ?
Hey! Sodium citrate works both ways but is better in the lye solution. Try 1% of total oil weight!
Thank you 😊 that’s what I was thinking but I googled it and some were saying add to oils so I asked you to make sure I knew you would know haha
So where does Sodium Gluconate fit into this?
It’s another chelator that is similar to sodium citrate in performance in soap!
hello to you if l use 380g water how to calculate thé amount of sodium lactete
you have to calculate it considering the total amount of oils, not water. 1 to 3%. Let say you have 1000g of oils, you need between 10 to 30 g of sodium lactate added to the lye solution when cooled down
.
Does it make a difference if you are using Dry Milk?
Not in cold process, no.
@@MrsSoapAndClay Thank You for responding💥
The CP soaps I made is having too much of moisture on it even after 6 weeks of curing. It's very wet like . what is the reason. Is it because of humidity? I live in Kerala, India.
Hey! Definitely humidity related. Get a dehumidifier and set it next to your curing rack, or at the very least an oscillating fan.
@@MrsSoapAndClay Thank you. I'll try and fix an occilating fan. Should it be 24/7 on or on intervals. If I pack it in air tight plastic wrap will it help?
This is irrelevant to the video but my kids have every even at the beginning of school lol smh
