In this video I talk through my method for formulating soap recipes. I go through all the details of the process (including how to decide on water amounts for your recipes) and then demonstrate how to calculate a soap recipe using the Soap Calc online soap calculator.
New to soap making? This is important!
Sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide (lyes) used in soap making, in granular or flake form or in solution with water/other liquids, as well as raw soap batter, are highly corrosive and require careful and attentive handling and the proper use of personal protective equipment.

Hey Elly, You are such a fount of soap wisdom and I am so grateful I stumbled upon your site. I've never made anything close to a soap, but now I'm interested in trying my hand at shampoo bars. While this video explains calculations, it doesnt explain the actual recipe. I mean, why did you choose those oils and in those ratios? Will their combination achieve a specific, desired result? For a shampoo bar for oily hair, naturally the aim is to remove the oils but also to cleanse, without drying. Bearing that in mind, how do I create a recipe? I wanted to experiment with ghee in a shampoo bar as Ive heard it leaves hair silky and shiny. How do I decide the quantity of ghee and how do I decide the quantity of other oils and which oils to combine it with?

💖 What a fabulous teacher! I have been reading for several hours trying to wrap my head around the amount of oils vs sodium hydroxide/water. I have NEVER made soap. I am researching before I even purchase the items needed. I was about to give up. I clicked on this video mainly because it was in front of me, really thinking I would shut it off before it was over 🤪. This was what I needed! Thank you! You have a kind and generous spirit. Teaching others how to do this on their own is such a kind way of HELPING others. I have a very specific reason for needing to make my own soap. I have been ordering home made soap online and I can not afford to put that much money out on bath soap any longer. I am so exhausted from researching and so THRILLED to have this video. I plan to watch all other videos that you have to share! You are so few very much appreciated. Kind Regards. Mrs.Torres 11-21-21 @ 2:13 a.m here at my home 😃 (now I can rest). 😊

I had my distilled water and lye since April and just got my molds from Amazon last week. Seeing this video gives me the motivation and insight into understanding what to to. I did a soap making course since 2019 and was to go onto advanced but then the pandemic hit and the class never started back so I lost the interest but now I'm at it again. Forever grateful 💖🙏🏾

@SemperFi4evr Год назад

INS is a combination of the iodine and saponification numbers and gauges the hardness of the soap. The Calculator recommends a range of 136-165 for INS for the hardness of soaps but you can work outside the range with experience. For example, your soap recipe has an INS number of 122 indicating that it will be on the softer side.

Hi Elly Made my first bar of soap yesterday and cut it today. I want to thank you for all your help. I am stoked. I used light coloured olive oil 80% and 20% coconut oil. Turned out very close to white in colour. Just what I wanted. Sliced it up today. Now to have the strength to wait the 4 to 6 weeks or longer to use it. I want to go out and make more. LOL. I figured out the hardness factor too. Your recipe was at 25%. So I will shoot for that kind of a range. Knowing that mine is a nice firm bar today it will be close to what I want in about 6 weeks. Given the heat we are experiencing at the moment it could be closer to 4 weeks. But all a learning curve. Thanks for inspiring me and being close to the place I live in. That was important to me. To know what works in our climate. You made it look a lot less intimidating. Cheers Kindness regards. Glenda

Elly, thank you so much. This is wonderful. So many websites are so stingy with this information. It's as if they don't want you to know the secrets! All I can ever find out is about oils but not how to calculate. You are a gem and so kind to share your knowledge. I now feel inspired to try my first recipe!

Agreed with Tenika Baldwin's comment....I've messaged some soapmakers not about asking for recipes, but just to steer me in the right direction looking for answers.... I either get no reply or a response as if I just asked their age and weight!!! This should be a helpful community and not one where people feel threatened. Thank you so much Emmy for everything you've taught us this far!

Yesterday, I made my first batch of soap! Used Pomace Olive Oil and coconut oil with some lavender essential oil for fragrance! Looking amazing. Can't wait to use it! I am really going to make more soaps for my personal use and for immediate family members. It's a very relaxing process for me! Thanks so much for all your videos, otherwise I wouldn't even have thought about attempting one!

@iluminameluna 5 лет назад

@Susan W you really need to watch many soap making videos, like RU-vid channel @soaping101, @BrambleBerrySoaps (I think), etc. However, I'll reply to your thought about using corn oil for soap. It's not recommended because corn oil makes a soap that tends to develop rancid spots called DOS: dreaded orange spots. If you want to use cheap cooking oils please use a soap calculator to create your own recipe.
