Hi- I like your pro-tip of making your clear MP white with TD. I never thought of this and grateful you mentioned it.
Hi, yes it’s a super convenient hack!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany - it’s one hack that I will definitely not forget!
So nice to learn new stuff
I’m new to soap making but definitely going to try this . Love tutorial , love the colours , it came out beautifully . I think with soap you can create and explore so much it’s endless
Thanks
Very beautiful. Each one is a work of art ❤
This is my favourite so far. Very creative.
I've been making my own soap for several years and your methods are going to allow me to take my craft to the next level. I am eternally grateful. Thank you!
Hi..also started making soap...this looks easy to make..will try them❤
Don't do it. The botanically in these soaps will rot and create mold.
@@evagray6592do you really expect soap to last forever though it gets used
I really love this. The soaps came out beautifully and the recipe was very easy to follow.
Really loved this. Just what i was looking for.
wow, i'm going to try making this
I’m inspired! Thanks for all of your pro tips. Have a great day.
Those are beautiful! ❤
Thank you for the video. They look gorgeous. 😍
Excellent homemade gifts for family and friends. Or as gifts for the mail man, your hairdresser, etc. I know my big thing is to give holiday cookies to my mail man, my hair stylist, the girl who does my nails, etc. However, this is a good replacement for cookies! I would rather make homestyle gifts for family and friends. It is much more thoughtful and can be easier on your wallet with the price of everything going up!

Can’t wait to try this one 🎉 and thanks for all the tips 💚😘❤️
It’s such a fun one!
How fun! Very seasonal!! 🥰
thank you!
But thank u!! This was a great tutorial and they look amazing!❤
They look amazing and that fragrance oil from 16/17 the malevolent I use it in my candles that fragrance is amazing
Thank you! Yes that fragrance is so good!!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompanyhow much essential oil you put in each base on your video?
Beautiful soaps - I can't wait to try this - you make it look so easy
These are beautiful! Definitely going to give these a try. Great video!
Wow!! You made that look so easy and they really are gorgeous!! 💜💜💜
Superb mam, i was loving only cp soaps but your mp soaps are really mind blowing. Thank u ❤️ mam for sharing
Your soaps are just WOW😅 Exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much for this video. Is easy to understand, straight to the point and lots of useful informations. I have bought all (I think) indegrients to make my first soap and then I found your video, just perfect. I made some decorative candles and coasters for gifts for coming occasions, and I was hoping I can add some nice soaps. Thank you for sharing, I am going to watch your other videos (subscribed already). If I may ask two questions: can I add acrylic paint to soap base, can I use aromatic candles oil to soap base?
Thank you😊
Thanks,a lot i just was looking for .thanks,from algeria
They look Amazing
Awesome
Just beautiful!
I had no idea you could put orange slices in melt & pour! 😱
Yes, make sure they are dried!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany won’t they discolour?
Look gorgeous
I"m curious, everything I have learned about melt and pour soap is that you can only use a few ingredients as additives, or they will eventually turn brown and moldy???? Don't your orange slices mold after awhile?? Thanks!
They are great to look at but will definitely grow mold or turn brown within a week
Don't know that I would do the orange slice, but the others are great
Amazing work 🌷
Thank you lovely xx
Absolutely beautiful! I thought I read somewhere that you can't use botanicals in melt n pour soaps because they will go rancid/mold. Can you shed some light on that, please? Thanks
Hi there, thank you! You can use botanicals in mp soap. The issue with this can be not all of them work great in mp soap. Some of them just turn brown or black. Like lavender, it turns black in mp and cp soap. The flowers used here will change color a little bit but not to a brown color.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompanythanks for clarifying. I used lavender and rose petals, they definitely changed within a week went brown
I loved this video and great idea 🥰
Hi, they came out beautiful, ❤ I have so many dried flowers and I was so excited to start using them but every video I see it tells me that flowers can’t be use in melt and pour soap only calendula because it will start to mold. Please help me with this I’m just starting to make soap. Thank you for sharing your beautiful video.
This is true. I do not recommend botanicals in m&p soaps.
Beautiful
Hi Cory, they are gorgeous, thanks for sharing your idea. I have a question about the botanical I used, it’s discolored and becomes dark green, I don’t know why.
Thank you! Yes, most botanicals will change color in the soap over time due to the ph of the soap. Calendula petals work the best! Avoid lavender and rose as they will turn black and brown.
Have you tried adding citric acid? It could serve as preservative and mainta the color ❤
Hi, new to soap making. Wondering how long the botanicals and oranges will last in the soap before they turn brown or mold? Thank you for the videos :) Lovely art
Hello! Thank you! The only botanical that won’t change is the calendula, it stays the same. All of the others start turning brown within a couple days. The orange slices last a little bit longer but they do change as well.
Would the botanicals mold over time?
I am curious too cos that is what i read
I was attacked in a soap making group for adding dehydrated oranges this past week because they will mold and I was apparently being irresponsible.😂I knew they would mold.I just wanted to see how they would look.Ugh lesson learned.
@@bridgettechavez4551 thanks for putting yourself up through the experiment/ attack and reconfirming melt and pour does not work with botanicals..lol
@@liveandletlive7152 no problem.It was quite the experience.😮💨😂
Hi! In my experience, using dried flowers and fruit skins, as time goes by the soaps turn yellowish and spoil very quickly 🫤
The only one that lasts a little bit longer is the calendula but even this flower rusts with time 🫤
Amazing
Omg love themm!!!
Love your patron page!
Thank you!!
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany Hi Cory I can't access your Patreon page, please help me out
Very nice, awesome. What container would you use as a 4 pack.
Thank you! I was thinking either a corrugated long rectangular box that you can fill with crinkle paper. Then wrap the box with a nice xmas bow or wrapping paper. Or a bakery box with a window
How come when I use dry flowers in my soaps they look amazing at first, then in few days they start putrefying?
same!
👍 thanks
I read a comment on another video that dried herbs/flowers cause mold. Is that correct? I love how that looks
Yes all this stuff will rot after time
@KD Matthews so best to not add any dried flowers right?
You are correct.
No adding dried flowers? About not adding those fake chemical oils she is using that are not even essential oils.
What temp do you heat the soap to? I haven’t made M&P soap in years (I’m a CP soaper). I know if the soap gets too hot it can sweat and have issues later on. Thanks.
How much titanium dioxide powder did you add to your distilled water to create the white backing soap half?
Do I put dried flowers face down or face up before pouring in the soap base? I have daisies and other complete flower heads. They are not crushed.
How long did it take for the soap to harden?
Hello, doesn’t Orange hurt the skin when carved? Thanks
Hi. Thank you for your video. The soaps are gorgeous! I am very new to soap making. I'm only doing melt and pour right now just to get the feel of soap making before I start CP soap. I wanted to know if you have any other scent suggestions? if you are not to able to purchase those scents?
Would like to know cause a bit confuse how much fragrances to put in
Do I add fragrances to the white base as well
These are great! How would you wrap these and do you need to do that immediately?
Thank you. I wrap these in plastic wrap. They really don't sweat and don't have to be wrapped right away.
What essential oil pairings would you use for these soaps.
Hi A.B. you can use lemongrass essential oil, I would use that on on the calendula one. You can also use lemon essential oil. If you use orange essential oil on the orange slice one, it will give your soap and orange hue. Lavender is always a nice one in soap as well.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany how much of fragrance per 8 soaps
Few days back I make my first mnp soap.
Donkey's milk soap base
Essential oil
Brazillian purple clay
But it's not lathering enough...
I'm mostly a cp soaper and I do dabble in m&p molding. I'm really not a lover of botanicals in soap. I don't mind a few maybe but not slices of oranges or big pieces of chamomile etc only those that may serve for exfoliation. Yes they are look great and these ones are very pretty but for function, I'm not a fan. I'd rather have m&p embeds that don't have to be picked out of my soap in order to use it. That's me though, I'm sure lots of people like them. 🤷♀️
You said ALOT THOUGH...
Who cares 🤷🏽♀️
I agree Nancy
@@Rainmakesflowers 😅
Theses are beautiful but do you find melt and pour lathers well. I tried one once but I could get much lather out of it so it put me off trying it again ❤
I read that this does not take away from the cleaning quality of the soap despite it not lsthering so much.
Maybe it's the quality of your m&p base.
Hi! Please help! How was your soap base able to stay in liquid form so long..when i melt mines down it start getting stiff almost instantly. Is it that im heating up too much?
Did I overheated in the microwave maybe 😊
My first soap was a glycerin melt and pour... It turned out beautifully, but it was very drying even with oils added. I had an allergic reaction. It's hard to find a good quality melt and poor liquid soap. The soap base I bought had some poor ingredients, but even some of the organic ones on Amazon have poor ingredients... Suggestions?
How you have same amount of clear and white base but your white base is much ticker?
They will go moldy within a few days....there must be a way to stop this?
I was torn apart in a soap group I’m apart of for adding dried oranges because they mold.I was told I wasn’t being responsible.😅
How long does it last for Palm oil to go bad?
How much eucalyptus essential oil should I used. I’m just using a she’s butter base and eucalyptus essential oil, I did one soap with small smoking of she’s butter and soap lathers but it makes skin rough why
One small drop is good enough for 100g of soap since it's very strong smelling
Doesn't the organic ingredients added need a preservative?
What about the mold or black
Can you do a diy on how to make melt & pour soap?
I will keep this in mind!
You tell me melt pour natural mint use in it any perzivte soap shelf life improve and no any fungal in soap
Exactly how much titanium you used to add
Please also write the name and quantity of the recipe in your video
And it is very important to write the recipe chart in the description
🙏🌻🐝
Preservative name pls
Do these soap sweat or do they have to be wrapped? What do you wrap them in?
Yes, they can sweat but I haven’t experienced that with this particular brand. I wrap them in plastic wrap.
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany please kindly share what brand or link where to buy your low sweat glycerin. Thank you.
@@TheEzlau this soap base is the crystal soap base and the suspension base by Stephenson Personal Care
@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany thank you... I will check it out....your soaps are beautiful. I am Laura but use my hubbys name here. I want to try this with roses.
Does white melt and pour soap also sweat like glycerine?
@@HappyH4ppyHappy The roses turn brown inside the glycerine clear soap base? Oh my. Thanks for sharing.
