Shea Butter Soap Making using a 60% Shea Butter Recipe
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июн 2024
- I had a few requests to modify my single oil shea butter soap recipe to try and add a bit of lather. So I made this new unscented soap using 60% shea butter along with a few other oils & butters.
Thank you for watching! -- Holly :)

Hi everyone! I think when I make this soap again (high shea butter is my dry skin's favorite), I may try using 90% shea butter and 10% coconut oil (since the coconut oil was the only real lather producer I added). I included the olive oil just to have a liquid oil in the mix, and the cocoa butter was added for hardness (and because I really like it in soap).
I was asked by a couple of people if the shea butter scent lingered in the soap. I mentioned this in the video, but, even after 9 weeks, I can still smell the shea butter. If you were going to add a fragrance, it might interfere with the scent somewhat. I did use unrefined shea butter, though. Oh, one more thing, I don't detect any cocoa butter scent after the cure, in case you're wondering about that.
Hope you're all doing well! -Holly :)
You CAN buy indécentes shea butter, but by then I'd think most of thé bénéficia péripéties would have been steppes out as Well.. i'd either work soubrette naturel scent. Its NOT THAT bad!
Can u tell me please how many G of water and lye thank yoy
Thank you so much for sharing! I thoroughly enjoyed this video!
Have you made the 90% shea butter/10% coconut oil soap yet please?
I think your name is Holly? Your lessons are amazing especially you voice is so unique calming and soothing to anyone ears. Plus that music seems like a Christian hymn from Hill songs and your soap recipes seems to be too luxurious 60% Shea Butter & expensive soaps. I will try to make 60% Shea Butter & see. Because I always use 30% only Plus A Trillion thanks for your video & lessons … Keep looking forward for more luxurious soaps lessons 😊
Thank you so much for leaving your recipes. Other soapmakers do not do this, and it helps us new soapers soooo much. Love your soaps, and the music.
I really appreciate how you do SoapCalc at the end!! It’s incredibly informative and helpful to the beginner.
Your soap is always so beautiful. No soda ash, no air pockets, no specks. Amazing!
This is the most calming soap making video I have ever watched. Subscribed. ❤️
Thank you so much!!
I tried this - thank you very much. I live in Guatemala with my husband. We are missionaries. I brought some Shea butter back from our latest visit to the states. It is an excellent soap for my rough hands. Again thank you very much.
I've read all over the internet not to use more than 15-20% butters in CP soap because of cracking, but you've proved this totally wrong. I've used butters up to 30% with no cracking but have dialed it back to 20-25%. I don't use palm oil, lard, or any animal products so to increase hardness and longevity I use more butters. Kokum butter is very nice and I use it instead of cocoa butter because it won't clog pores. Thank you for a great video. And I agree with another user that your video is extremely relaxing to watch.
That is really beautiful soap! Simple, creamy and so exquisitely perfect!
Holly, thank you for being so kind in sharing your recipe. I’m going to try it! 😊
Holly, I just love watching your videos! This bar looks amazing and so creamy. I can't wait to make it!
I have not tried a soap with any type of butter over 60% in the recipe. It looks super creamy and luxurious! I have been a big fan of your videos since I have discovered your channel! Love everything you do!
Oh, thank you so much, Wan-Ting! You make the most beautiful soaps, so it just makes my day that you watch my videos!
Looks like an incredible soap! Has all my favourite ingredients. I cant wait to try this soap recipe! Thanks Holly :)
I made this and love it. Also love your salt soap recipe. Your vibe is very calming! Thanks
Beautiful result. Thanks so much for the super video and sharing your knowledge. Your videos instill a large amount of confidence in those of us who are still new to soap making.
Your such a beautiful gift to us,,, thank you for being so generous and sharing your knowledge and calming videos.
Your voice is so calming. The esthetics of this video overall is just so soothing.
Thank youfor sharing your recipe & demostrating it. Beautiful looking soap.
Just perfect as usual ! Beautiful soap. Thanks for sharing 🥰
I have been using shea butter in my soaps since 2001. I currently make a palm free recipe with shea butter and I love it. It has such a wonderful, creamy lather. I am not missing the palm at all.
Do you use full shea butter to replace the palm oil? I am new to soap making and would like to avoid lard and palm and was hoping I could use that as a replacement but many places say max 15% shea butter and most of the palm recipes I see are 20-25% palm. I was thinking of doing a 15% shae/5-10% cocoa for replacement in these recipes.
Holly, I love your soap diy’s thank you!❤
Thanks Holly. I love shea butter soap. It's so nourishing. Greetings from Pretoria, South Africa 😘💐🇿🇦
thank you very much, soaps with shea butter are delicate for our skin, please explain slowly which allows me to understand, i will try, have a nice day❤️❤️❤️
Fun, Classy, Professional and Concise... Well done!.
Thanks for sharing your recipe Holly. I made this soap yesterday and can't wait to try it out in a month :-)
I'd never thought to try this I loved this and your so calm I adore you 💗💗😘
I just love a plain smooth and creamy bar of homemade soap! It turned out gorgeous!
Thank you! I do, too. After all these years, a plain bar is still my favorite.
Thank u for the soap calculator. Your soap looks so good 😊
Beautiful! Your videos are always so calming. I watch them in the mornings right before a busy workday.
Thank you so much!!
@@hollysoapmaking No... Thank you! I'm going to try this recipe tonight. I've never worked with high amounts of Shea butter before, so it should be interesting.
The lighting and music in this video is excellent. The soap looks lovely as well.
Thank you!!
Always love your videos...so calming and beautiful. Thank you.
Oh, thank you so much! I really appreciate you watching them!
what a lovely and cozy video.. thanks for sharing
I'm feel so relaxed after watching this video 😊
High percentage shea butter is wonderful to use. Beautiful on the skin. These bars turned out great 🙏
Thank you very much for sharing. This one will be my next loaf.
I made this! It was so much fun! I think I messed up by letting it go too far past trace when mixing, but it's still useable and so luxurious on my skin! My man LOVES this soap!! THANK YOU!!!!
Wow this is really helpful and inspiring. Thank you
Such a relaxing video!
Your voice is so soothing and healing 💗
Thank you so much! That's very kind of you to say.
The soap is so pretty 😍
Hi Holly, i did it yust like you said in this video. It' perfect. Thank you so much for your recipes.
Gonna have to give this one a go Holly, thanks.
Thank you Holly! This looks like an absolutely gorgeous soap. I can't wait for you to try the 90% shea butter version.
Thank you!
You're amazing, thanks for sharing your experience.
Oh, I love this plane soap... ❤️
It’s been always lots of fun 🤩 while watching your videos 😊
Amazing lessons I loved it so much 😊Thanks a lot
That is a beautiful soap! Thank you for your recipe. I'm making a mint soap while watching. This one is next!
Thank you!
Loved it.... will try it for sure
Beautiful creamy soap.
Very nice soap
Thanks Holly, I enjoy watching your videos I have learned so much from you and can't wait to make my own soap, I'm from St. Lucia. 🥰😘🙏
Thank you for watching! 💕
Hi a Holly I need your help I would love to make my own, but not sure how to calculate the oil batch. Please
I just did this soap - but bumped the Shea to 65% instead of 60%. I also added lavender EO. It’s in my oven now, can’t wait to unmold tomorrow 😊
How did this go for you?
Please how many gram of Lye and water I will use. Thanks
If you key it into soap calc, it will tell you@@aderonkeodedeji9331
You're amazing!!! 🙌❤
Awww, thank you so much!! 💕
Thank you for sharing
I love this recipe! I was glad to see a video where I could tell what was happening with the trace as that is so hard to get on camera. Would love to try this recipe, but didn't see the amount of lye and water. So I'm taking that as we should just enter this into the lye calc ourselves?
Hola, buen día 🌷. Agradecida por la receta.
Me encantan sus videos tan pulcros.
Y qué jabones 🤩!!!
Saludos desde México 🇲🇽♥️
Had a go at making this today. Can’t wait to use it! How long do you suggest for curing after its cut?
Gorgeous 💓
Thank you! 😊
Very nice! Thank you for sharing friend! like 👍👍
Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in Soap making I am a fan of Shea butter…only a question; Is it possible to add at some point during the melting process a few drops of essential oils?
Hello,loved this video.Can I use this soap on my face
Love this. What can I use instead of cocoa butter?
Super awesome. How do you clean or dispose of the key water supplies? Do they have to sit and wait to be cleaned or can be cleaned right away?
How wonderful... and i have so much shea butter to use :)
I just used this soap this morning after a two week cure...it is the most wonderful bar of soap ive ever used. i never thought anything could top tallow in soap and this shea butter bar is absolutely wonderful. Nice thick, dense suds and it felt amazing using. I need to make more!!!
Man I don't know how I ended up here cause I'm not a soap maker lol but your voice and accent was so calming I had to stay 😊
Well, thank you! 😊
DOES this soap have the same lather ability as the first time you used it Holly ?? Nice video
Hi, thank you for this. Would love to make it but would like to add some fragrance oil. Could I just add some? And how much please? Or would it affect the whole recipe? Thank you ❤
Thank you for your generosity in sharing your experience and recipe plus results. I could sit and listen to you for hours Holly you have a voice which is so relaxing, and reminds me of Dolly Parton, no offence but I love listening to her too. Again thank you I will be trying this soon. Take care.
Oh, thank you so much! That's so kind of you to say! 💕
Where do u get ur equipment and supplies. Very soothing video. New sub
Hi I loved this recipe, but I was wondering if you might consider trying a refined shea butter version as I would love to see that.
Thank you so much for this video. I made an 80% Shea Butter, 10% Coconut Oil & 10% Castor oil soap after watching your 100% Shea Butter soap video. It’s really nice & luxurious
What was your Superfat?
@@karimyyy4653 I used a 5% Superfat
@@sharifapatel6393 thanks
How is the lather please?
@@Mintimiruku6369 the soap has a lovely creamy lather
👏🏻 Çok güzel 😍
Hi ! Do you have a video where you explain how to measure essential oils ??
Thank you for sharing this formula! I love making soap with different butters as well. Did you put your acrylic soap mold in the oven as is or did you cover it with something to prevent heat damage?
You're welcome & thank you for watching! I usually put the molds on a flat pan to keep them level. Sometimes I wrap it in a towel to hold warmth.
Hi! Have you ever tried castor oil for lather? Thank you!
Good evening Holly. Love your video. Please can't see the amount of lye in grams. Thanks a lot.
I wish you would include the water lye ratios, I'm having troubles with the soap calculater, I live in Australia so % do my head in
Hi. How long did it take to cure the soaps ? Thanks 😊
Hi Ms Holly thanks for sharing . I just wanted to know if it is ok to add castor oil to this soap
I use vegetable shortening to give my soap extra lather. Especially when im using high amounts of Shea butter .
i love your videos 😍
Thank you so much! 💕
Hi amazing soap recipe
I like to try it .pl share details of the ingredients used in gms do it will be more helpful
So easy, why people make soap more complicated? Your soaps are beautiful, do you have the link for the 90% Shea butter
Could I leave out the cocoa butter and just use a little more coconut oil instead? and then sunflower or avocado oil?
Very random question: What's the font on Soapmaking? Thanks and great vid!
I enjoyed watching your videos. I want to make this soap, but I didn’t see the amount of lye and water.
Buenas tardes Dios le, me podría indicar las cantidades del agua y la sisa por favor, soy nueva en esto y no entiendo muy bien 😅gracias de antemano 😅
Can I replace distilled water with frozen milk in this recipe?
Thank you Holly for sharing your extrensive knowledge on cp soapmaking, it's a creamy gorgeous soap. I am gonna try this for my extremely dry and highly sensitive skin, by replacing 5% of cocoa butter with castor oil, with lil honey as additive.
Hi.. I tried soap making but when ever I use shea butter it gets thick so fast even after heating it for multiple times and my soap batter ends up so thick and it never came out as I expected. Can you suggest me what can I do for this.
I want to make soap but i still need all the equipment and mixtures, seems like it's going to be complicated but still going to give it a try 🤞
Thank you, always; for sharing.😘💝😘
Hi . I am new soap making. And I am watching a lot of soap making with different ways. My question is why did you put it in the oven??? Thank you
Oooh, 60% shea butter. I had to watch this one:)
Beautiful soap. I have a question. I watch all of your videos and the one question. How do you know at what temperature oils and lye get together. Seems you change it. I have had little success with my soap because I get a different result making any soap I try of my own recipe. Thanks for your time.
Thank you & thanks for watching my videos! My soaping temperatures vary with my recipe and sometimes it's just where the temperatures end up after I've let everything sit for awhile. If I'm making a plain soap with lots of hard oils (like this one), I generally soap around 95ºF so I don't get a false trace where the oils start to re-solidify before I've even reached emulsification. If I'm making a complicated swirl and need lots of time to work, I generally use a recipe with more liquid oils and will soap around 80ºF or even room temperature...lower temperatures will (usually) give me more time to work. Hope this helps!
Hii. Is it safe for daily facial wash ? 😊
I love your videos. So beautiful and peaceful and such a delight to watch.
I haven't yet made soap--just in the information gathering phase. I have a question: How do you know how much your oils are going to weigh? Is it the same as the volume of soap that you're wanting to make? For example, I have a 2lb mold--would I calculate my total oils to be 32 ozs? Thank you so much.
Thank you so much! To calculate the oil amount for a specific mold, you first calculate the volume of the mold (length x width x height of soap). Then multiply that number by 0.4 to get the ounces of oil required. I use grams, so I always convert the ounces to grams. I've used these molds for so many years that I usually just guess at the amount or round up sometimes. So my numbers at the end may not be exact to the gram. I'm going to try and start including that calculation at the beginning of the recipe portion of my videos. Hope this helps!! Oh, and Elly's Everyday Soapmaking has a great video on this very thing, if you're interested in more info: ruclips.net/video/ZguW6J3Jj2Q/видео.html
@@hollysoapmaking Thank you!!
What does soap making do to the quality of butters. Does it make sense to add unrefined butters instead of refined butters, or butters other than your Shea Butter base?, i.e. Cupuacu, kokum or other oils. Does the lye process cancel out all of the qualities of butters and oils?
what are the measurements of the oils im just starting and i dont want to mess it up for it to have a bad reaction or anything
How long did you let it cure?
