A little tip in pouring from bottles of E.Oils or F.Oils: Hold a toothpick across the opening and pour slowly -- the toothpick will direct the oils into your container and you won't have drips or spillage. It works!
in the glycerine soap, they need lye to make it. You remelted a soap with lye solution and made new colored bar with it. Techniqualy its not making soap, but it fine. the important is that u have fun.
You are correct, Marc. You understand what I did, and I understand what I did, but for those who are new at soap making, their intention is simply to learn how to make soap without having to handle and mix lye. But thank you for clarifying that. :)
@@beverlyfrancis8433 What she did was take a basic soap that was already made (with lye) melted that soap down, added ingredients that change the color (some even provide skin loving and nourishing properties) and fragrance. she than remolded and unmolded the new creation. All without using lye in the process herself. Because it was already used when making the actual soap that she used to make the newly created soap. you see when the original soap was made that is when the lye was used. That soap went through the chemical process of Saponification which at the end changes the chemical make up of the lye leaving no lye in the final product , which she used to make her soap. Not everyone is comfortable with using lye to make soap. This way is more comfortable method for people to make their own soap. hope this helps.
@katka1406 Melt & Pour soap is already soap that can be melted and then add coloring & fragrance. You can't add other things like botanicals or oatmeal or other oils because it will ruin the soap. No soap can be made without lye. Bar soap uses sodium hydroxide and liquid soap uses potassium hydroxide. Commercial soaps are typically synthetic detergents. In the soap making process, the lye combines with your oils and goes through a chemical reaction to turn solid. Then you have soap. If it's done correctly, there is no lye left in the soap and it's completely safe for the skin. 😊
Thank you so much for this video. I’ve never made soap. I have ordered lye but I do have glycerine so I want to try this first! 6:41 I watched a video another lady made (Danu’s garden I think is the lady) and she used an old milk carton if you don’t have the silicone moulds. And I love your natural gray hair. I’m letting mine grow in now. Tired of dying it. Trying to go natural. I appreciate this video. 😇
Thanks for sharing video. I found it so easy to follow and understand. I can't believe how close soap process is to making candles. Super excited to make soap.
Really enjoyed watching this tutorial. You explained the process really well. I have some Melt and Pour bases on order along with basic soap making supplies, so I am looking forward to making my first soaps.
NOTE: IT IS A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE YOUR ESSENTIAL OILS WEIGHED AND PREPARED FOR USE TO QUICKLY INCIRPORATE THEM INTO YOUR MELT AND POUR SOAPS. ANOTHER GOOD IDEA IS TO HAVE YOUR WORKSPACE COVERED WITH A TARP TO PREVENT STAINING OF YOUR SURFACES, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE WORKING WITH A SURFACE SUCH AS GRANITE, ETC.
I'm making soaps with my granddaughter. These soap bases with essential oils are great! Not one batch is the same as she shakes the oils in and tries to keep count. Lol, but we are building memories and sales are great!
I used soap base to make soap gummies. Yeah the soap did not harden up until after 2 weeks. Yet still was gummy. I made it myself. My 1st time making soap with carrots and lemon zest.
Like all soap, melt and pour soap base (a.k.a. Glycerin soap) is created using lye in the soap-making process. But the final product does not contain lye.
Do you have to put the essential oils or such in it??? Or is it preference, my mother is sensitive to smell. Sorry if I didn't get that far in the video if you said already haha
I tried to make a coconut beauty bar with a lye receipt it’s onbeckys homestead RU-vid channel mine turned out pretty bad but I had tons of trouble measuring
Hello,8 would like to know how long we need to leave the sopa mixture in the box before opening and cutting , lye sopas need sometimes a month , so thnx for the tips!!!! From Sint Maarten dutch West Indies , im trying it today !!! Daniela
Iam a guy who makes his own DEORDERANT and toothpaste now I'll be making my soap . Thanks how long do I let sit the base in order for the soap to harden? Thank u
Thank you for your tutorial!! You made that look easy (I’m anew at this)!! Even the process of the soap thickening was a Good thing to Show us what happens when the temperature isn’t right!! I Appreciate that!! As you learn from mistakes!!..& obviously it didn’t really effect the outcome of the soap!! (Would it have been different if you had used a Milky Base.. like Goats Milk or Shea Butter)? Anyway!! I’m going to make this soap!! Oh!! Where did you purchase your 1 lb. Silicone container! Thank you So Much!! God Bless!!🙌🙌💓💓🙏🙏😍🥕🥕🥕
In a way she didn't use lye if your not careful it's very dangerous so pre-made would be the way if you not good or a beginner at soap making before I used lye I did rebatch soap at the beginning of soap making adventures
I would love to buy natural soaps, but all natural soap contains glycerin. I'm one of the rare ones that's allergic to glycerin. My dermatologist ever since I was a kid suggested for me to use plain dove soap.
@@KristiStoneSFFS that's a good answer I just thought be careful with the wording for RU-vid tearms it doesn't bother me but we don't live in the perfect world we should. Sorry about the comment didn't mean any but good thoughts I love 99% the videos on ya I just learning to say things when I think I should say something. Take care madam and have fantastically blessed life... 🕉️
@@user-dv7ew3cf5e No problem, I understand what you mean by learning to say things when you think you should -- been there myself. In that case, I appreciate your comment and sincerely thank you for it.❤
MP soaps do not last long & the bars are not Hard enough! I wasted money on MP base! I learned how to make CP & it’s so much more worth it! I have a special Room where I make all products! Good 👍 to let others know how to make melt n pour!
ok. SO THE glycerine soap wasn't just plant. Glycerine is from plant. and, do you have to microwave cuz now there is radiation in that... I am learning so I am wanting to find the purest way 100 plus years regular barbarians like us simple folks- didn't have mirowaves nor bars of glycerin. ANYONE wish to comment. This lady is very very nice--- perhaps she will speak to all this. TY Group
@@patiencesamwinga762 wait is 100% vegetable glycerin from lye or had some lye in it? And thank you about the double boiler method yes. Cuz i do not use microwave...thanks again🌞
HI I USE melt and pour i dont have microwave i use a roasting tray with water in on top of oven put melt and pour in glass jug dish on low keep stirring till it melts
Found this looking for making soap without lye but mentioned melt and pour. Melt and pour still has lye in it, you’re just not mixing it yourself and the process is completed for you. Your title is misleading.
I don't mean to demean anyone, but this is not "making soap." The soap has already been made (with lye, by the way) and this project is just adding stuff to it. This is akin to buying a can of soup and claiming you made it because you added some extra spices. If folks want to make this for their own use, fine. But if this is to be sold as handmade soap, that is not being honest.
Cars are composed of parts sourced from various manufacturers, and the assembly process involves contributions from multiple companies. While some cars are manufactured abroad, they are often marketed as American cars when sold in the U.S. Similarly, Japanese car manufacturers may produce vehicles in different locations, yet they remain recognized as Japanese cars. Regarding soap making, some individuals opt not to craft soap from scratch due to safety concerns associated with lye, especially concerning its potential danger to people and children. Instead, they choose the safer method of melt and pour soap production, which still yields the desired end product: soap. Your comment seems unrelated and feels out of place in this context. The lady was very honest by noting the process of melt and pour right in the title of this video. It could not be more honest. Honestly!
Do people really need video instructions to make melt and pour soap? Maybe you can have fun with colours, scents and moulds but it works out a lot more expensive than making your own hot/cold process soap. Using lye isn't difficult at all but you need to follow the safety tips... there's many videos about that
Wow Title of the video: How to make soap without lye Literally the beginning of the video: Buy pre-made soap. Then 25 minutes of adding things to pre-made soap.
I stopped watching at :13 second where she says MELT AND POUR Well this is a straight out LIE‼️ MELT & POUR IS MADE WITH LYE‼️‼️‼️‼️ The process of fats, oils and lye is just done for you...DAMN‼️ I definitely don't want any of your soaps, you can't read an ingredient label...sheesh
Patricia..🤗 Yes!.. I think we All know the “lye” has already been incorporated in the M & P Soap Base (that’s the reason you purchase & work with it)!! Most people like me..Do Not feel Comfortable Working with the “lye” itself because it’s “Caustic &!Dangerous!”.. so.. it’s more Fun (for beginners) to start off getting the hang of it & having Fun with it .. BEFORE getting into the next stage of actually using it in their soap-making!! For myself.. I’d Love to have an actual Class (face to face).. regarding using lye in CP or whatever technique is used..& become comfortable with that & because you can actually see what is going on & you can ask Questions!! I Do hope you understand where us “New Beginners” are Coming from!!?? God Bless! 🙌🙌💓💓🙏🙏🤗👍👍
