All Natural Soap - Carrot, Turmeric and Honey 

I have a question, I deal with eczema at times so this would be something I will definitely try, my only question is if this bar is good for eczema why would there be oatmeal in it, its oatmeal drying. ?

DP S no oatmeal is not drying to the skin. It’s very mild and has calming properties for inflamed skin.

Sunshine Soap and Candle Company I love all accept carrot 🥕 just curious how long you can use with carrot?

Nice Soap. Thank you!

@@dps5819 I know there are some people with eczema that are allergic to any type of oats. If that is you, you can leave the oatmeal out 😊. Maybe buy a bar or make it in a small batch and then see how you react to it.

Why do you have to work out how much water is in your puree? Don't you just reduce your water amount by the amount of your puree? Thanks.

Carmella Washington that’s awesome! I’m so glad you love it! It’s a pretty great product 😊 keep me posted on your grandson!

Please let me know how it goes!

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany do you have the ingredients and measurements of this video? Or maybe a website i can look into? Thanks

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany Yes ma'am I will. Thank you so much for asking! 😊

The turmeric doesn't stain your skin?

Thank you!

It’s the lye. They are afraid of the lye.

Dislike isn’t towards the video, but towards the payment method! Membership pricing & pay to have questions answered! But she can respond “thank you” to your post while simple questions have gone unanswered for over a year! I don’t expect anything for free & believe people could/should profit from their knowledge, but her site is pure GREED!

Fair enough- sorry you had that experience..xx

I like the video

Even better, add cinnamon directly to the grounds when brewing your coffee, it adds a lovely flavour, AND is great for diabetics. If in ANY doubt, run it by your doctor! My cleaning lady dropped 20+ lbs without doing anything different in her life, except drinking my coffee in the morning instead of her local coffee shop's, and with mine, she was getting full fat cream and sugar. Her Dr. Asked her what she was doing differently, all she could come up with was my coffee, she told him what I did to customize it to my own taste, he leaped on the *cinnamon*, said "THAT'S it, keep drinking that! In fact, try to get an extra cup "to go." The more you can get into you, regularly, the better. Find out EXACT MEASUREMENTS, so you can duplicate it on days you're not going there!" I forgot to tell her to tell him, I also add three whole cloves to the basket before adding in the cinnamon powder and then the ground coffee. It's just what *I* like. If she didn't like it, I do keep a jar of instant around for just that reason. Could always make her a cup of her own taste. But it wasn't an issue, she adored the odours and really wanted to try some...so she did! And does NOT take it black. Same as me. Triple cream, double sugar, yet she was losing weight on it. Truth to tell, woman works like a trouper! Anyone WATCHING her would expect she'd lose weight! No matter what, she just goes and goes and goes. Makes the Energizer bunny look like a slacker. Yet she went from prediabetic to "nowhere near at risk", apparently just because of the added spoonful(about)of ground cinnamon in the coffee grounds that the hot water percolated through. If the cloves had anything to do with it, there were 3 whole ones right in the very bottom, under the cinnamon. But I've never been able to find anything anywhere relating cloves to weight or diabetes, or even insulin effectiveness. 🤷‍♀️

Maybe if you eat it idk about just putting it on you.

I wouldn't mind that in my morning shower

@@iamuche1174 so i can't say "my hairdresser" or "my grocer"....come on you ninny stop being so offended. She doesn't feel she owns her help, since your mind automatically goes there it really says more about you than her. Clearly she thinks her help is awesome while you see her as someone to be insulted when there was no insult.

@@iamuche1174 i like u!!!! People need to lighten up. The biggest racial tension right now is merely made up! People need to stop inventing problems we have enough real ones.

Donna Parchment sounds awesome!

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany can't wait to watch it

Please what are you using this for

@@kameishamartin311 an exfoliant for removal of dead skin cells.

Yes avocado pit works well as scrub

Do made it for sale

I want yo buy some from you

BRI2105709 did you ever try that combination? It sounds so amazing?

@@jolante1188 I tried the basil, peach, and ginger leaving out the honey, and that was pretty good. I also tried rose, tarragon, and lavender. A little tarragon goes a long way, but it also was lovely. Highly recommend. ☺ I should also mention that the ginger split my soap. . .emulsion? Idk the science behind it, but it separated. I was able to blend it back together with an emulsion blender, but it still scared me. I still don't know what I did wrong.

Lisa Ray thank you so much for those kind words! I am so glad this video inspired you to create your own 😊

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany Thanks again!

Well said!! Soaping comes with experimentation, researching + plus time and money. You've given the technique, now it should be up to the individual to formulate. Maybe you could sell your recipe via Etsy? I see other creators do something similar and create a digital download. I'm researching a prickly pear and aloe soap right now and will churn it out tomorrow. Beautiful soap btw!

Luisa Pollard thank you!

How can it be called all natural when it has chemicals in it ?

Steve Phillips Make some....please send me a bar of your soap when you get done..!

can you send me the recipe?

@@nourhanmuhammed743 I prefer to make body cream or shampoo. But, if you follow the ladies instructions just add some other ingredients as well. Such as, honey coconut oil, shear butter, and some essential oils. I just saw a essential oil I have not used before it is called CHAULMOOGRA Essential Oil but, I will try it.

@@StevePhillips I want to make liquid shampoo and natural soap but I can't find the way of preparation and there is a matter use for make soap solid and creamy I don't know it but I will follow your advices 💙💙 thank you

@@nourhanmuhammed743 I buy all ingredients from EBay to make shampoo and body cream I usually buy organic natural ingredients. I also make herbal extracts. Look up Swedish Bitters. It is like a super tonic good for many health conditions. Swedish Bitters was made popular by Maria Treben, in her famous herbalist book. "Health through God's Pharmacy" it is called.

Please can you write the recipe for me

Filed Away By April lol!! I have both of those items on my website right now. Check out my rose and shine video to see how the coffee soap is made with coffee grounds 😊

Airefresc Bcn thank you! It is pretty amazing to use all natural, sustainable products that benefit us in so many ways!

Yes Im so interested in a rice water soap bar

Me too 😂😂

Please write out the recipe for me

@@cocofooddomain3397 I did 100% coconut oil 20% super fat Additives: dried mint leaves powder + 15 ml mint oil

Christina Elliott love these ideas! Yes, one day my kiddos can learn, they are just a little young yet 😊

I love you video.but to tell you the truth.some part I don't see.

Thank you so much! Carrots are an amazing additive aren't they!! Thanks again for watching.

What’s copiaba smell like & does it have any healthful properties? Thanky

Jasmine Flowers thank you! The shelf life is about one year. Lye is a necessary ingredient to turn the oils into soap. Once the oils and the lye combine, and the molecules bind to each other you have soap. The carrots get preserved in this process.

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany if you melt down base vs from scratch, is the shelf life the same? May seem like a dumb question, but a newbie. If the lye is not actively working and essentially gone in a base, I imagine the shelf life is way lower?

No because she SELLS the recipe. Which is fine but many many other soap makers provide recipes for free. Try royalty soaps.

And bramble berry

What is that clear liquid that she got in her soap.

Too bad it is just for selling. Not sharing the recepi

@Queen Mercy I would be very interested in that recipe if you sharing. In hot process I'm never sure when to add purees. also wonder whart EO she used in this

Pat Lantinga yes, more videos coming!

During the preparation of the lye solution, it gets hot as soon as the Caustic soda gets in contact with the water. Keep an ice bath to make sure it is well below 30 C. It should be fine ...

thank you!

I kinda messed up the story. The nurse asked me if it was from the soap maker lady in CA and i said "I made the soap but the recipe belongs to the lady in CA, Sunshine Soap and Candle Company"

Fabricated Reality wow!! Keep me Updated on how she likes it! 😊

Do we need to refrigerate it?

Qp

Mary Kat thank you! Yes citrus essential oils don’t stick. But if you try the orange 10x from Brambleberry it does stick it’s formulated to

Sueqethea Jones all real soap is made with lye. During the saponification process(chemical joining of lye and oil/fat molecules to create soap and natural glycerin) all the lye is used up as oil turns to soap. So when the soap is done curing there is no lye left. If there is lye left something was done wrong in the mixing process or you used too much. Typically if you don’t use lye none of your ingredients will bind together and it’s just a gloopy mess

Megan M wow! Thank you 😊. I am going to try to make my own natural soaps. As I get older my body changes and reacts to soaps in the store differently.

Great thanks for sharing with us what you know

Same here!

You have option of buying it

Good question 🤔

Curly Hijabi wow! I’m so glad I inspired you! Keep me posted on your first soaps! It is such a fun thing to do!

Cory O'Briant I made my soap yesterday and I let it solidify overnight for 12 hours. This morning when I cut it, the loaf broke into pieces. I was able to get the middle to look like a half decent bar. It was a one pound loaf and I cut it with a kitchen knife. Is that where I may have gone wrong?

Curly Hijabi soap making takes a lot of practice and there is a big learning curve. Could your measurements have been off? There a number of different things that could have caused. I have never unmolded a soap after 12 hours. My recipes need at least 24 hours to set up. But yours was brittle after 12 hours. Can you take a pic?

Cory O'Briant I didn’t use exact measurements on the distilled water. It called for 4.95 ounces and I put 4 ounces. And I was an ounce over on my oil. I can’t find a way to attach a picture unfortunately 😩

Curly Hijabi ok so back to the drawing board! Those measurements should have been fine. Sometimes it can get hard and brittle from not enough water or too much sodium hydroxide. Also, it can get brittle if you use too much palm or cocoa butter or beeswax or stearin acid. On your next batch, try reducing your hard oils and butters and making sure the water is spot on. It really shouldn’t be ready to come out if the mold in 12 hours

The lye preserves it

What did you do to get the dried , did you put it in the freezer or what?

Lye solution

Natasha Sinclair no I just leave it out room temp. It always works fine

When I leave out it creates heat tunnels can U advice what should I do

Is it working?

Thank i am going to do that on my next soap making day.

@@UneSoeur you can try it's only going to help you gain new ideas , try Aleo Vera and rose oil add little honey and rice with coconut oil to carry oils or lavender and almond oils with almond or goats milk , ginger and rhubarb or chocolate rose oil with coconut oil... List is endless Apple crumble with walnuts almond oils thanks for sharing your precious knowledge. Tc keep smiling. Kind regards swift hug from England

Freda Asare Come on Challenge yiurself !

Freda Asare me too

Jana Procella I think I will😊

The most accurate measurement is to put your container on some good scientific scales, and weigh in the ingredients. But you need to record the weight of the container itself, because most scales have very poor memories.

You lie to us in the video you don't tell us the Name of the clear liquid you added to the oil and the last liquid you hiding yourself behind the scene you mixed together and you added at the minute

Palm oil

You unfortunately can't make soap without lye. Even melt and pour soaps contain lye. If you want a soap that isn't as harsh, just use more fat; it may not lather as much, but it will be more gentle on the skin.

You make a superfatted soap, so that you are certain that all of the lye has found fat to react with and there is still some fat left over. So long as the fat you're using is something beneficial for your skin, the unreacted fat in your finished product will be a positive. You definitely do not want unreacted lye in your finished soap for use on your skin! But it can be useful in the laundry.

It has a shelf life of about a year.

J P hank you for watching! I usually fast forward through me adding in the the lye solution because it can be loud, lol, and takes a while. All I did here was pour in the lye solution and blend to a light trace 😊hope this helps

Here is some helpful info I found. It’s recommended that your equipment be used only for soap making. Most of it can be picked up inexpensively at yard sales or thrift shops. You’ll need: a scale to measure ingredients a stainless steel or enamel pot a glass or plastic pitcher for mixing and pouring the lye plastic containers for holding oil while it’s being weighed - I use 32 oz plastic yogurt containers 2 large plastic or wooden spoons - one for stirring the lye and one for the oils a spatula 2 thermometers - one for the lye and one for the oil soap mold - this can be as simple as a shoe box lined with plastic or parchment paper, a plastic tray with sides, or a plastic shoe box rubber gloves - wear these the entire time cardboard to fit over the molds a blanket to insulate the cooling soap When properly prepared with exact measurements, a chemical reaction occurs called saponification, turning it into soap with glycerin. Then if cured for several weeks, no lye will remain in the final product. Check out website learningandyearning.com/basic-soap-making/

J P would be nice to see what a light trace is. Have never made soap before.

J P j

Nice one where can I buy those things you use

The Shade I will look into this! Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching

this is beautiful

How'sIt Going? Does that apply to the person making the soap too they should only be making soap and not cooking it

Rita Boskovski thank you for watching, good luck on your Cold Process Soap journey!

I am wondering this too!

I cant imagine it lasts long with adding carrot puree like this

I laughed out loud when I saw that extra hand reach out! Great video!

Jennifer Dalida thank you! Avocado is an amazing additive wonderful for dry skin!

Jennifer Dalida soaping 101 has a soap instructional with aacado and cucumber I made it and really love it.

betty kuykendall peaches and cinnamon sounds so good 😊

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany Awe . . . I have some carrot puree in the cupbaord but I do have peach puree in the freezer . . . good though.

Heather Cortes might be best for you to just use soap with no fragrance of any type. Some skin types are very, very sensitive

@@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany we do usually but, the teenager wanted scented one time. Lavender and peppermint seem to work ok though. She isn't sensitive at all but, I asked the dermatologist and she said the same thing I did. No citrus for eczema.
