Test Day!
Soap & Clay is a family owned business operating in Washington State, but started out online thanks to Mrs. Soap & Clay's kickass brother and his amazing web design skills. The business was started as a tribute to Mrs. Soap & Clay's grandmother, the OG maker in the family that cultivated everyone's love for the DIY life. The studio/retail shop opened in 2017 on 6th Ave in Tacoma, and immediately began teaching soap, bath bomb, lotion, and scrub classes to the makers and maker enthusiasts of the PNW. In 2019, the pottery studio opened as well, making the soap shop a busy place full of artistic energy every minute of the day.
Mrs. Soap & Clay has been featured on Business Spotlight, New Day Northwest, and was awarded a coveted place on the South Sound's 40 under 40 list in 2019, an award given to the most influential business people under the age of 40 each year. She cried when she walked up to the podium to accept the award. A lot.
Drawing from her chemistry background and her maker spirit, Mrs. Soap & Clay infuses her favorite things into her soapy designs and creates products that are fun to see, use, and learn to make. Stick around for this ride - she'll take you on a great one.

Tell me your favorite! 🎉❤
Banana and rose for sure.
I’m thrilled with the bananas esp as I have a bunch frozen in the fridge. Can you let us know if they all had a non-drying effect on your skin?
I’m a trifle shocked that the corn wasn’t a total competitor for 1st place!! That was a surprise!! And I’m delighted about the banana peels- like you, they are always in our house. And as far as the video qualities, I didn’t think I cares or noticed, but I have watched other Utube videos and they are so sub- par in comparison to yours. In so many ways- the lighting, the placement of the camera, the sound quality, the background, and just the quality and knowledge of your info that you pass on. So allow me to appreciate you! And your efforts, I love to be able to enjoy this content it makes me happy, seriously. and so thank you!!
Who would have thought that banana peels could improve the quality of your soaps. I really enjoyed watching your challenge of using different everyday ingredients to achieve a wonderful result. Thank you so much for sharing your love of soaping. 😍 😍
Did the banana in a goat milk oat and honey soap and it is oh so good! Thank you!
JUST BE YOU . THAT IS WHAT MADE WHO YOU ARE. YOUR AMAZING.
You have inspired me to take my tulips heads and put them in my soap, batter. They say that tulip heads petals are a powerhouse to your skin.
Any of them would work…good to know but I really liked the dense bubbles on the rose to be sure!
Same!
One day, I’m thinkin’ Mrs S&C is gonna make “Compost Bin” soap: veg and fruit peels, egg shells, coffee grounds, grass clippings,etc all together. Dreaming and laughing about this all day! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oooh… *taking notes*
@@MrsSoapAndClay I was thinking the next thing was going to be used car engine oil 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
@@-PORK-CHOP- Howzat for a mechanic's soap!
I know you're probably joking, but that's actually a brilliant idea! Upcycling and zero waste are really popular emerging trends in skincare/beauty right now, and fortunately, I don't see that trend dying out. Incorporating waste products from the food industry, which is a huge threat to the environment, would be really impressive.
Oh! I love the rose for a shampoo too!
I personally like the banana and dandelion. 😁
I don't know what you think is ugly about the editing. I think you did a great job!
My new favourite Soaping channel, you remind me of a good friend I have 😊😊 banana looks like a winner 👍
Banana is my favorite! Thank you for doing this. So fun!
GLAD YOU DID THIS.
Thanks so much for doing this series Chantine. What a great idea. I personally would use the banana. Only because it's repurposing something that would only go in the bin (compost bin). The fact that it's free is a super duper bonus. I've not added tussah silk to my soaps as yet, next on my list. I'm off to have a banana. ;-)
the rose was really cool. the banana was nice but I would be worried about the color change but still might be fun to play with
I'm fascinated with the banana soap!!! hehehehe
I've used oven dried banana peel, sweet potato peel, carrot in my African soap version and love the lather.
I've also made banana soap, collagen soap with white/snow fungus, goji berry soap and blue butterfly pea soap. They all came out just amazing 💖
Really all of them are awesome because they're so much easier and cheaper to get a hold of compared to tussah - but that 🌹 has me excited, so does the 🍌, those are super easy to get my mitts on lol
Like the banana. Rose would make good shaver or shampoo, I agree!
They all performed really nice. I thought that rose foam was incredible and that banana 😮
Omg seriously hard to choose but I loved the rose 🌹 definitely gonna use that for shave and shampoo bars. But I think I'm with you the banana is gonna have to be my favorite 😍!
I've been following your videos for a while, and let me tell you that you are an amazing human, thanks for share your knowledge and passion ! You are an inspiration ! I have learned a lot !! Best wishes!!! My favorite: banana, then, rose!!!
No worries about the editing!! So excited you dropped it!! Awesome test results!! Lots of plant base subs for tussah. SUPER EXCITED TO TRY SOME OF THEM RIFHT AWAY!! ESPECIALLY THE BANANA 🎉! Thank you soooo much!! You’re amazing!!
I also tried the bananas, puréed in with coconut milk, which I froze from my life solution that worked out really nicely.
Sunday night lather test was a bonus! Thank you, this series was so unique and useful. I’m definitely trying banana peel first. I also love Taylor Swift wall behind you:)
I am excited about the Rose. I make a Rose Clay face soap and am definitely going to add the Rose to the Lye next time. I love the look of the banana soap I think it really looks like banana 🍌 bread 😂.
Great idea!
I'm really surprised by the rose. That looks spectacular
My favorite was definitely the banana. I bought bananas today just because of watching your video. I am going to try rose petals for my shave soap. So far I haven't been delighted with my tries on making a shave bar.
I suggest you test flax seed gel and comfrey in soap. I've enjoyed the feeling of both of my soaps. I Infuse the comfrey in my oils. The flaxseed gel I make with aloe vera juice.
Awesome!
Speaking of losing water weight… whatever happened to the aleppo type bars you made? 😂
MORE TESTS! I was just looking up silk replacements for fabric and it has gotten me thinking as well. not seeing an issue with your editing. Even after you mentioned it. I’m no expert though. I’m making banana soap next. I have some on ice. I did not want to make banana bread with my over ripe ones. I’m trying to shed a few. I need a fragrance oil now to match. Cats have been making cameos in everyone’s videos lately. Like they do.
Thank you so much for doing this test.❤
Fantastic testing! I am amazed how all of them performed and I must say, my favorites are Banana and the rose❤ for sure- I can hardly wait to get soaping 😁 thank you so much for your hard work 🙏
I’m loving the banana and rose, clematis then dandelion. Can’t wait to try them. Thank you for doing this experiment and testing. 🤗
Thank you for sending me the things to do so!
@@MrsSoapAndClay Let me know when you’re ready for more. I have some fireweed (not a lot, it is more difficult, very fine) and is only around a short time in the fall. Then I’ll try to gather cottonwood (it is called cotton).
Thanks for all the information.
I love this entire test. I am so excited to try the banana in y soap. Thank you for all your time doing this test.
Very interesting. Thanks for doing this video.
This is my favorite experiment ever!!! I have loved watching these and the lather test was amazingly satisfying. 😄 More please! 😬 I cannot wait to try the rose and the banana! 🤗
Thank you so much for this. You work so hard for us! The shine on the soaps is so nice!
Call me crazy but I stopped using castor a few months ago and my lather (coconut, palm, olive and sunflower) is amazing.
LOVE THE BANANA! 🍌 💛
Same!!
Thanks for alll of that effort. We love you 😘
Love you!
Love you just as you are and love what you are doing. Love love love what you've done this week! You give me so many ideas I can't keep up! xxx
Ooh, the next one you should do is plumb. That color would be amazing
Absolutely loved rose🌹 & banana🍌!! Corn 🌽 my 2nd favorite! Thank you for doing this for us! ❤ you’re awesome!
That was amazing! Thank you so much for your hard work. Love this channel. I will definitely try the banana !
I always look forward to your videos! You're doing amazing work and I've learned so much from you since I found your channel some time ago. And you post SO MANY VIDEOS! Your channel is a fricking gold mine of information! Please know we appreciate all you do and share with this community ❤️
... Also the rose bar looks amazing and I'm intrigued by it!
This was a great line up. I love the banana as the replacement for tussahs silk. I am excited about trying the rose in my shaving soap now, thank you so much for all your work on this topic.
Wow all of these were amazing! Did you blow the big bubble too lol? I love the bubbles/lather of the banana and rose! Dandelion was very nice too!!
I really like foaminess in regular body soaps too so the rose is awesome as just an infusion, but I'm super happy with the banana! we eat so many bananas in this house it's so easy to acquire! Thanks for this video!
I definitely want to try the Rose petals, banana fibers and I think the dandelion fiber is absolutely charming. I've Loved this whole series. I'm so glad I finally had time this morning to sit down and finish watching the videos. I think this is my favorite series from you yet. You're probably kicking off a craze in the soaping community, with this one, especially with those unexpected oil extractions. If no one else has mentioned it yet, slippery elm bark might be fun to experiment with too. Maybe marshmallow plant might be interesting? Thank you for doing these! I just love these experimental videos. So awesome and inspiring. My head is bursting with more ideas than I even have the time to try lol.
You did great on the editing! I like the dandelion and corn, they look great. I would collect the dandelion and corn silk throughout spring and summer for winter soaps. But I really liked the banana infused. And the banana one can be a year-round add-in to the soap. This has been a fantastic and educational series. Thank you so much for doing this for us.
Just watching that rose soap get all foamy got me excited! And ya, banana was awesome looking too. Thinking one could dehydrate and then pulverize a bunch of peels to have on hand just for soaps. And now I have to rescue my last banana peel! And I need a rose garden now too! 🤣
We’re all going to become the BEST gardeners after this. 😂
I like them all but I have to say the banana surprised me! I love adding the rose petals,I just tried it when I watched your video! You are inspiring me to try LOTS of lye infusions, so thank you! You are just a blessing!
Best test ever 🙂 I am going to start from one end of my garden to the other across four seasons. Today I cut some Rhododendon branches to bloom inside in a vase and a handfull of leaves is now waiting for my next lyesolution. You are awesome. Take care 🙂 BANANA
Thank you so much for this video! I loved the idea of using silk in my soap formulation. I'm not vegan and neither is my line, but I am really bothered by the way most silk is harvested, and peace silk is difficult to source. You pretty much covered all of the alternatives that I've found, but I'd like to test pineapple, orange and lotus "silk" if I can find them.
❤ this series great info I will be trying a couple of these I have big bags of rose petals, dandelions and number of other botanicals I foraged last year. Have you ever tried wild tiger lily I have them growing everywhere on my property I am cautious as to how many I pick the bees love them as much as I do lol sharing is caring
Don’t beat yourself up. This one looks/sounds great!
I'm going to agree 💯! The lighting the view! You look amazing!
Whew... I was rooting for the Banana and already saving my peels. And how cool that Rose soap. All soaps fantabulous. Awww and yes, please dont stress over your editing. I'm really impressed with your tech taming skills. Have a rest, great job again with this project and thanks for all your hard work.
Because of you, after i've watched the video with banana in lye, i did a soap with banana. OMG it's freaking awesome. I love it. And i need to tell you that i cut it yesterday evening and i went immediately to wash my hands, with some piece of soap. So if you feel this way although the soap is not cured i can't wait to see how it will feel after several weeks. Thank you very much for what your doing. I will be honest with you. You are one of the reason that i opened my soap business. I'm at the beginning but you helped me so much, without you knowing. And to respond to your question, for me by far, banana is my favorite.
I really like the banna
My dad eats a banana a day, so I have asked for a peel, because I am excited to be able to try it! I think from your lather test, it has to be my favourite as well!
I’m so obsessed with this soap, I can’t even. It’s been a LONG time since I’ve felt this excited about a soap.
I would LOVE to see banana + coconut milk. I will be testing this very soon myself. Super excited for this.
Also, dandelion + broad leaf plantain (a common so-called 'weed'), which is a blend of infused oils which I use for the skin. Truly amazing as a moisturizer, so I'm guessing this blend of plants would be incredible in soaps.
Awesome video, thanks so much for sharing the results. Now I gotta go find the banana soap video because somehow I missed that one!
Plantain!! Yes!! For all those reasons, I will also try adding that to some of my soaps for the body- good thinking! ❤
I like the rose 🌹 I’ve done that with infusion in oil but I do like the shine from dandelion one and banana one I was really curious about because I have banana powder that I ordered for lotion to try but I do have lots tussah too but I must say all the other ones seems to lather so much more but I do like adding tussah to my soap all my soaps lather is creamy I use shea or mango coco in all my recipes but now I want to try them lol😂
We appreciate you and your doing very good so it’s just you being you lol😂try relax ❤
Thank you!! #1 ROSE and #2 BANANA
I think I'm going to be experimenting with banana peels, rose, clematis, and maybe the banana flesh too...
I will have to say the dandelion mostly because I am drinking dandelion tea 🍵. But I also like the banana and the corn 🌽 ❤
I love all of your videos. You are an amazing person and I really appreciate all of your helpful soaping knowledge. I have heard you talk about Whiskey soap. I have made beer and wine soap and absolutely love them. Could you help me with how to approach making whiskey soap? I know you said to boil it to remove some of the alcohol. Do you do a partial or full water replacement? I have been looking online, but I trust your experience over anything I have found out. Can you please help? ❤
Ok, I just did an inventory of all my additives/botanical embeds and I'm excited for the prospective benefits if used as lye infusions. I've got 3 different mushroom powders (Chaga, reishi, & lion's mane), roses, dandelion tea, lotus leaf tea, chrysanthemum, Clove leaf tea, hemp powder and sri inchi protein powder. Any thoughts on if any of these would not work in lye? If anyone is curious about getting some of these, honestly Asian markets are my favorite to search for these additives. I find the coconut milk and cream powder there, coconut milk/cream without the additives, huge selection of teas, and so much more!
Hmmm now I'm wondering about that grass jelly and sugar cane I got for bubble tea 😂 can't look at anything without thinking of whether or not it works with soap 😂
How about marshmallow root and slippery elm they provide excellent slips for hair products. I am now intrigued can it be used in soap making, and it's vegan friendly.
I'm going to get some BANANAS...:)
I have a question as well. When we infuse these items into the lye solution, how do we include it on the ingredient label?
Banana/dandelion 1 = no 1
Clematis = no. 2
Rose = no. 3
Corn = no. 4
I still wanna try milkweed. I need to find some. It will be next month that the tree across the street blooms (magnolia tree is what I think it is).
Yeah I haven’t seen milkweed in forever!
@@MrsSoapAndClay last time I saw some, it was out at the reserve walk next to the office building I work in.
I wonder if the banana is also giving sugar because of the natural sugar content from the peal itself.
Yup I think that is accurate!
I am still going to Waite for alternative Tasha silk video hope you will give us solution for it thanks
Question: does the lye water need to be hot still, for the oil extraction, when you do these lye infusions, or will you still get some oil extraction if you add the plant fibers once the lye water has cooled?
Hey! I don’t know. It seems to me that heat helps!
An idea for more weird things to test: water replacers. I've seen beer, wine, milks, and aloe, but there has got to be some substances out there that aren't common. I've been using coconut water since my first batch and just can't seem to give it up.
Interesting. I’ve been using ACV for weeks now and love it.😮
The rose then the banana
Did you use the skin or inside of the banana?
The skins!
So, my neighbor has a cotton plant and let me pull a bunch of it off. Wondering if that would do anything... 🤔
Hey, what about kudzu?
What a great idea!
BANANA !!!! 🍌🐒
