    IMPORTANT UPDATES
    🎈 Please store your lye solution in a polypropylene plastic container instead of glass! Or don't store it at all and make it fresh :)
    Also, please be aware that this recipe is almost a castile soap! It's not really an all-rounder recipe, just what I came up with at the time (I honestly had no idea it would be so popular! It was my first soap recipe shared on youtube and I thought only a few of my friends would see it 😬). Please check out my other videos for more balanced recipes. I have so many wonderful soap recipes on this channel! 🌸
    New to soap making? This is important!

    I've just uploaded a video review of this soap - 2 years after making! 😀 You can find that HERE ruclips.net/video/YUJbKwNgwmA/видео.html It's pretty amazing!
    And.... 🛑 SAFETY UPDATE! 🛑
    ▶ Please view my new Soap Making Safety Essentials video HERE ruclips.net/video/EZTsW9UvNmU/видео.html before you attempt to make soap for the first time.
    ▶ Since making this video it has come to my attention that strong alkalis (lye solutions) can etch and weaken glass containers (even heatproof glass like Pyrex) making them prone to breakage! I NOW RECOMMEND KEEPING ANY UNUSED LYE SOLUTION IN POLYPROPYLENE (No. 5) PLASTIC CONTAINERS with screw top lids - keep them in a safe and secure place.
    Thank you for reading - stay safe when you make soap!! 🙏

      Some folks just don't feel comfortable working with lye because it is so toxic if inhaled or can burn. Speaking of, I saw many posts saying to keep vinegar handy and apply within 30sec of a burn to neutralize.
      Logistically it can be challenging due to fumes/smell (e.g. apartment s and condos, or if you have slot of pets who would be exposed.
      Then, if you make large quantities for selling, I can see where folks would skip a few steps.
      But, all that said, I completely appreciate the amount of effort and the skill this takes 💯%💕 And the finished product is SO beautiful. I could almost feel the smoothness and smell the lavender 😍😍

    Elly, thank you for sharing your recipes with us. I made this one and the carrot puree and turmeric hot process soap this past weekend. My house smells so wonderful right now. I live in an apartment so I have to cure my soap inside on racks. I started out making melt and pour soap about 20 years ago, and other bath items. I was always afraid to try using lye. I really appreciate your videos because you made everything so simplified for me. I have made the pine tar soap as well. Everything came out perfect when I tried each recipe. I have also created a couple of my own recipes over the past couple of months. I hope you continue to make videos for us in the future. Thank you again.

    Elly, I can’t say enough good things about your channel and the beautiful and clear way you teach soap making. I am a total newbie to this, although have wanted to try this forever, so I’m so glad I’ve found you! I am no longer afraid to try! I make my own deodorant, I have as many natural and chemical-free cleaners as I can in the house (ie high-quality microfibre), and now I’m so excited to expand my knowledge and skills with soap making! I have been gathering the supplies I need, your videos have been absolutely essential in this, and soon I will be making this soap as well as your shampoo bar recipe (ACV). Thank you, thank you, thank you a million times! You are just a joy to listen to and are such a kind and patient person; you make a wonderful teacher! Anyone who asks or is interested in learning this new skill, I will certainly direct them to your channel! All the best to you! 💕

    Hi Elly, I am making my way through your video library, but to be honest, some I watch several times over. I love that you don't fret about your soap not going through complete gel phase. I call myself the "Not Martha Stewart" of anything. I love randomness of "most" of my projects. Thank you for sharing the recipe and the process. Cheers and happy soaping 💕

    Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and skill, Ellie. I love to cook and bake, and this tickles that nerve!
    Gonna go full DIY on soap making because it looks fun and rewarding, as well as fairy easy. I’d bet it’s also a healthier option to the synthetic soap products in the store.
    All the best, thanks.

    Heyyyy , so since I now have time on my hands with all the craziness the world is experiencing! I finally made the soap with your recipe ! And I must say it came out amazing !At first When I was mixing the products I got a bit discourage because my batter was not turning as white/lite as yours. Mine had the yellowish darker mustard almost color when done mixing . But when it dries it was the perfect color ! Thanks so much ! Would love to share a picture ! Sending love from the Bronx in New York City!
