Omg that's amazing! What a beeeeautiful soap I love every one of your creations. I absolutely LOVE the idea of using a loofah for an inbed! That's so different and ingenious well done! Have left a 'like' and subscribed to your channel. Look forward to seeing more from you. Keep up the amazing work! :-)
WOW. I have never seen loofah soap. It makes me feel nostalgic. I think I just added a new project that I will be obsessed with making. Thanks for the inspiration here in 2021.
I just love these, mine actually turned out really nice, so glad I found this site with Sarah. they are awesome. Going to try some other things now that I have seen on your site. Thanks
Hats off to you! I've tried M&P and can not get the hang of it. I love the tip for keeping the loofah in place! I did a similar soap in HP and struggled with spacing my slices. I will give your method a try.
Sarah, thanks so much for this video!!! I have been looking for something fairly simple yet sophisticated, and this is it!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!! P.S. I've subscribed to your channel, keep up the great tutorials!!!
+Veronica Raines thank you for your kind words - means so much! Glad to hear, stay tuned because I will be uploading more videos to come - another very very soon! :)
Wow!! That is beautiful ❤️! And I agree the loof is good for your skin along with using this awesome soap. I'm a beginner and getting ready to start making my own soap as well. Just waiting on my Shea butter to get ship from Ghana.
Hi where do you get the soap from to make these lovely soaps, would love to make some for my own use? Yours came out great and thanks for sharing. God bless!
Hi Victoria, I am not sure how dried lemon slices would work out the soap as I have never tried embedding them. My thoughts are that they may be too rough on the skin once the soap has hardened... Let me know how it goes if you try it out!
Depending on the M&P base you are using, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. When doing layers or embeds, I do not suggest using a fridge or freezer to cool your soap as the layers can separate!
Thank you dawn Amendola! It is actually a dollar store container in the Art section for holding your brushes and pencils - it has just the right height and width!
Mine were soft after soaking for only a few minutes. It could be the loofah you are using. I have never soaked in oil and wouldn't recommend it as it will bring in too much oil to the soap base.
Hi Jessie, I like to soak my luffa in some water, then fully dry it and place it in my loaf un cut. This makes it much softer when you are cutting once your loaf is set, if you like!
de todos os videos de sabonete este foi o melhor .meu pai plantava esta esponja aki no brasil santa catarina florianopolisbjs obrigada por dividir esta sabedoria comigo
+Jane Farrer for my colorants I am using liquid colorants from an unknown brand, sorry. As for my loaf mold, I love to repurpose - this is a container from the Dollar Store that I have taken the lid off of. The sides are thin enough that they allow you to gently tug on them to release the soap. Hope that helps!
I made just one to try it out myself first. When you're using the soap, the loofah is so hard and feels like rocks or glass shards on your skin. Is that normal? Thanks
Calculate the price of one bar, times four (for retail, times two for wholesale)= Price for sale. Example= 1 bar u made = 1dolar Times 4= 4dolar Your profit= 3dolar 😊 hope this help
Nice video, thank you. What dimension is your mold container? How much of the block of melt and pour soap did you use? From your other video it seemed to be a 2 pound block that you started with. Have you or anyone out there used turmeric or beet powder to color the soap? Thank you!
Hi Julie, thank you! This was quite some time ago so I no longer have that mold to measure, but there are many soap calculators out there to help you figure out how much soap you can fit in your molds. I know that Bramble Berry has a great one! As far as turmeric and beet root go, beet root unfortunately turns a very unappealing brown colour in soaps from my experience. Turmeric is a beautiful golden colour, however less is definitely more as it is known to stain. Hope that helps!
@@julielevin2505 of course, any time! I would try maddar root - I have had wonderful luck getting a wine red with that, as well as a red clay which is a more red / orangey-red!
SARAH'S SOAPS thanks just starting out and I love your colors!! Where should I purchase the loofah like the one you have here? I’ve been with bramble berry for a while and I have a lot of stuff I have been afraid until seeing your videos! Thanks for the inspiration!! I will try not to bother you with more questions. Thanks for the quick response-deborah I found the answer- to where you get your loofah- you get it from eBay they have a lot there!! Lol
I would LOVE to see these in round molds so there wasn't a little bit of loofa sticking out of the top. I never even knew loofa sponges existed before this video. Apparently I've been living under a rock 😂😂😂
+Jane Farrer, it all depends on the cost of the raw materials you are using. Add up the cost of the entire loaf you have made (cost of base, fragrance, colorants, loofah etc.) and then divide by the number of bars you get out of the loaf. That should give you a rough number of the cost of each bar!
+Cleo Johnson check the description box in the video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4pvsT__RmQA.html I have left some links as to where you can purchase some. Hope that helps!
Great question. My answer would simply be personal preference. I find it faster for myself to make one large loaf mold and then slice in to smaller pieces. I also do not mind having the square shapes - this way there are also parts of the soap that do not come in contact with the luffa, in case people do not want to exfoliate at that time.
I spray alcohol because it removes the air bubbles that can appear on the surface of melt and pour soap. It also helps when you are trying to create layers; the alcohol helps the 2 layers adhere better.
Thank you! Try spraying some rubbing alcohol between each layer before pouring the next. You could also try scoring the bottom layer before pouring another layer on top
