For today's video, we thought you would take you on a behind the scenes look into a day in the life of our soap business.
It turned out to be a very non-typical day - we even ended up at the pub and the beach, which I can say for certain doesn't happen every day! As well as showing you a little of our leisure time, the majority of our day was filled with working and for today, that involved filming one of our RU-vid videos, wrapping soaps, delivering soaps to one of our stockists, making soap dough, answering emails and unboxing an exciting new selection of natural colourants that we picked up from the post office.
If you enjoy our videos, soap making tutorials and small business chat please do give us a like and subscribe :-)
We will be uploading new soap making videos every Friday and new behind the scenes/soap business tips every Tuesday.

We're planning a move to the IOW and having a soap making business which reflects place - with botanicals found on the island and hopefully simply scenes such as the iconic graduating sand at the Needles, etc. You are such an inspiration! Your informative videos on setting up a soap business and managing the paperwork involved have convinced us we can really make this a reality. You're brilliant! Currently in Chichester area and thinking of starting with our first basic 7 variations to reflect West Dean Gardens and the plants found there (famous for chillies and orchard fruits)

Absolutely loved the video. The mix of soaping and countryside /beach footage was lovely.

Lovely lady 😘 Yes, we had a few hot days here in UK and good job you made the most of it. Now back the usual grey weather. Thanks for sharing your behind the scenes. It's a pleasure to watch your work. 😃

@TheSussexHandmadeSoapCompany 3 года назад

It is certainly grey today! Hopefully we will get another blast of warm weather some time soon!

Very cool to see how other people run their businesses, thanks for sharing! :D

Just recently found you and subscribed. I am a soap maker in the US. Can I ask what kind of paper you wrap your soaps with? I agree wrapping soaps is the hardest part and deciding is the worst! Enjoy your videos so much!

Lovely video, can’t wait to see the Xmas trial 🤩 love the soap with the coast landscape! I’m trying to do my own cosmetics and beauty products as well, did few lip balms, and I’ll try some natural deodorant this week. You’re a true inspiration Anne! Have a great week, Mayara from Peterborough 🇬🇧🇧🇷

@TheSussexHandmadeSoapCompany 3 года назад

Thank you so much Mayara! We have been testing a few Christmas bits this week (seems so strange doing it all in July!) and all is looking good so far! Would love to hear how you get on with natural deodorant, it is the one product I have never been able to get to work to a level I am happy with so I have put it on the back burner indefinitely!

I love the video! Greetings from much cooler Scotland 💚

@TheSussexHandmadeSoapCompany 3 года назад

Hello Katarzyna! We have cooled down here now as well! In fact, it is pretty miserable outside today!

You are welcome :-)

@alanabroad3471 2 года назад

Could you pick interesting shells from that beach to put on top of soap or would that be considered unhygienic?

@stevehaile3325 2 года назад

I think its hilarious that your in the UK and your wearing an American Outlaw T-Shirt. Lol

@TheSussexHandmadeSoapCompany 2 года назад

Perhaps I am hiding out in the UK in a cunning disguise after being exiled from the US? ;-)

@itsokaytobeclownpilled5937 3 года назад

Im in the US. Used to live close to the Pacific ocean. Not much more soul soothing than going to the beach.

@TheSussexHandmadeSoapCompany 3 года назад

Absolutely! I sometimes go in the evening if I have had a stressful day, it really does help all the worries fade away (even if just for a short while!)

@dawnrigby3736 3 года назад

I have had great success with the annatto and Himalayan rhubarb, not tried cochineal (not sure I wanted to use insects).

@TheSussexHandmadeSoapCompany 3 года назад

I can't wait to play with them all! I have used Annatto before, but never as a powder, so it should be fun to try!

@bSMith266 2 года назад

does the candle business allow you and your husband to work fulltime for the business. Or does you and/or your husband have another job?

If you are complaining about heat, never come to AZ , we have been on the 116-118 for the last seven days

@kristysmith9723 3 года назад

The main difference in the UK is the humidity. I grew up in a rather warm African country, but I struggle more with the heat here in the UK. Mostly because as I said it's humid, but also because it's seldom warm for long, so we're not really prepared or set up for it.

@TheSussexHandmadeSoapCompany 3 года назад

You have hit the nail on the head Kristy. I have been lucky enough to visit many much warmer countries (I was in Dubai some years ago for my ex's 30th birthday when it was just over 40C) and the heat somehow didn't affect me so badly, which I think is the humidity issue. Also, the fact that when I am in warmer countries I am generally there to relax and not rush around working! I think that makes a big difference too! Certainly don't think I could deal with 47.7 though Clivia, that sounds extreme!
