So for the record, Soaper's Choice is not sponsoring this video. I've never had a sponsor for any of my tests or whatnot; just sharing some findings with new soapers. We also talk about the differences between cosmetic oils and food grade oils in soapmaking, what you can say about soap, and how to substitute oils in a soap recipe. Have fun!

Soap & Clay is a family owned business operating in Washington State, but started out online thanks to Mrs. Soap & Clay's kickass brother and his amazing web design skills. The business was started as a tribute to Mrs. Soap & Clay's grandmother, the OG maker in the family that cultivated everyone's love for the DIY life. The studio/retail shop opened in 2017 on 6th Ave in Tacoma, and immediately began teaching soap, bath bomb, lotion, and scrub classes to the makers and maker enthusiasts of the PNW. In 2019, the pottery studio opened as well, making the soap shop a busy place full of artistic energy every minute of the day.
Mrs. Soap & Clay has been featured on Business Spotlight, New Day Northwest, and was awarded a coveted place on the South Sound's 40 under 40 list in 2019, an award given to the most influential business people under the age of 40 each year. She cried when she walked up to the podium to accept the award. A lot.
Drawing from her chemistry background and her maker spirit, Mrs. Soap & Clay infuses her favorite things into her soapy designs and creates products that are fun to see, use, and learn to make. Stick around for this ride - she'll take you on a great one.

Hey Mrs S&C. Is everything ok? Are you alright? Just checking cos it is almost 2pm here and no video today. You havent posted this late before. Im choosing to believe you have just forgotten to post or are posting at a different time to see if you get more views??? I really hope all is well.

To start my comment... You kinda broke my heart with your announcement that you are not the center of the world :( You most absolutely and certainly are!!!! You keep things REAL and are straight up honest and open about everything in the soaping world, thus making you the center of OUR WORLD... well, to me anyways. This soap is so mouth watering delicious looking!!! Oh I want some so bad!!!! I love how you take the time to teach us so much about the very important details involving soap making, the oils, their properties, SAP values, substituting, and all the jazz. Plus, you always do your thing!! LOVE you and all your work, and I appreciate everything you do!! Thank you!!

@waynegross2113 3 года назад

I don't like cosmetic oils for cosmetics! I feel like I'm ripping my customers off! If I say almond oil, I mean almond oil. Not almond oil and some cheaper oils to fill in! I make high end lotions, scrubs, masks, etc. Your putting them on your body and in my products your face! So in my opinion your paying for top quality. Now in soap, me. Maybe, but I personally don't. I hate Wholesale Supply Plus, since Debbie left, they have screwed up every single order I have ordered. Every single time broken, leaking, missing, you name it it's happened! I use Soapers Choice, they are out of Chicago, IL. They are straight above me, I'm in western Tennessee. If I order on Monday, it's here at 8:30 am on Wednesday. The order is always right and no damage! Love them. Their prices are great and for me the shipping isn't bad. For 380 pounds, I pay about 75$ and like I said, bam it's here quick! That's enough of my gripping, lol! Thanks for going over the details! Jill

@danalin7627 3 года назад

As always your video is SPOT ON. When I'm asked questions as to why, what, how etc I find myself giving a brief explanation and recommending your videos for further visual. Thank you!!!! Oh and the recipe comp video will be a WINNER!!

@MrsSoapAndClay 3 года назад

I’m really looking forward to making those!

@CabbagePatchSoap 3 года назад

I'm excited about the idea of one day needing to order oil in drums, that will be so fun! Soaper's Choice is definitely the cheapest right now, but I've purchased oils from Costco as well, and Walmart when I needed something fast

@pattiemoseley8752 3 года назад

First, those are super cute soaps. Second, I have been making MP for 3 years and saving up to get a shed to make CP. Next, I am doing all the research that I can before I start but I still don't have any idea what INS is. I have learned so much from you and I can't thank you enough

@MrsSoapAndClay 3 года назад

I’m so glad you’re learning stuff! Anything to help fill that soapy brain. ❤️

@Mrsnatyg 3 года назад

I’m in Hawaii and it seems like everything costs me an arm and a leg to have delivered. Therefore… Costco AND Sams are both my very good oil friends atm.

@MrsSoapAndClay 3 года назад

I bet shipping is crazy for you normally, but especially during these weird times!

@Mrsnatyg 3 года назад

@thomasgolaszewski6502 3 года назад

I'm that new guy on the block. Your Channel is great. The watermelon soap looks great! When you run out of things to talk about, how about something in the EO,FO as far as How much to use. I'm lost because I get information in soapcalc and bramble berry Plus if you didn't buy the EO from Bramble Berry, them, it's not in the list. When I'm trying to make a blend of 3 EO's. the numbers are so far apart. I don't know who's right. hope this makes sense. Just a thought. Thanks!

@MrsSoapAndClay 3 года назад

Hey! I do have an essential oil vs fragrance oil video on the schedule - coming soon! It’s definitely a confusing topic!

@MrsTheClown 3 года назад

Thank you for all of the great information- such fascinating stuff! I live like 2 miles from Brambleberry and was buying everything from them (buy local, sigh) for a while even though I still had to pay shipping. I was flabbergasted when I checked out WSP and am excited to check out Soaper's Choice. I've been soaping for about a year and am all-in, trying to get to 400 bars before opening shop. Your channel and your wonderful products help me so much!

@waynegross2113 3 года назад

Don't use WSP, unless you want broken, leaking, wrong product and month long waits! Since Debbie, the original owner retired, the whole business has gone to ....! I won't even go into customer service! Use Soapers Choice, they are excellent! I order from Bramble Berry quite frequently and never have issues with shipping. I order a lot of products and I pay between 9$-21$ and it is here in 5 days. I live clear across the country! So I don't know why yours is so high? I found that interesting. Jill

@MrsTheClown 3 года назад

@@waynegross2113 Hi Jill, thank you for the info! I am certainly going to be trying Soaper's Choice for my next order. I have spoken with Brambleberry customer service a few times and they assure me that they'll open up for "will call" pickup orders, "once the pandemic crisis is over..." Yeah, anyway. We pay the same for shipping (minimum $8.50, but I've paid as much as $90 for large orders), but my orders were usually delivered 24-48 hours from the time the order was finalized, and the orders of course packed so thoughtfully as to be able to withstand cross country shipping. Still, I'd rather save the extra packaging and do a pickup. I totally swooned when Soap & Clay's checkout offered to let me pickup my order even though it'd be a three hour drive one way, and then shipping was still cheaper than BB. I haven't had much issue with WSP, except for forgetting what I ordered because of the extended lead times. 😂 Take care and happy soaping!!! Julie

@paulalynrider4009 3 года назад

Super helpful info, so THANK YOU! also wondering if you have any experience or thoughts on Essential Depot as a supplier? Also, also...after my panic attack last night about my dish soap cracking a few minutes after pour, I went and checked again before I went to bed and the cracks were mostly resealed. That's cool! And I learned a new thing about how soap heats and swells after a pour! I'm still going to soap at a lower temp next time though. Thanks again for that advice! Loving this channel and the fact that you actually teach meaningful things about soaping and also have some fun with it all too. So fun watching the watermelon pour behind all the chart chat. Cute summer soap!

@MrsSoapAndClay 3 года назад

I used essential depot for a hot minute a few years ago and ultimately ended up canceling my subscription. I don’t think it was anything they did, I was in the process of scaling up to giant drums of oils and no longer needed them. People love their drying racks!

@iKit306 3 года назад

Okay so I loved this. The info about cosmetic vs food grade oils was super useful. I've seen listings for each and I was always confused. I've also never seen that sub chart from Brambleberry. I've mostly sort of pieced out a lot of that info myself but it's handy nevertheless! Have you used New Directions Aromatics? I've bought some oils from them and they seem to be a reasonably priced option for people who can't justify the bulk amounts required by Soaper's Choice but I have not done an in depth cost analysis...

@MrsSoapAndClay 3 года назад

I’ve never worked with New Directions - where are they based?

@iKit306 3 года назад

@@MrsSoapAndClay They're a Canadian company with US warehouses (so US customers are not charged in CAD nor do we have to pay international shipping). I think their US warehouses are in the midwest. They have a TON of different oils so if you want something exotic or unusual that you can't find elsewhere, they might have it. They also have a bunch of essential and absolute oils.

@katelillo1932 3 года назад

I made a soap today that smells like fruit loops but I’m almost certain all my beautiful colors just mashed together when I poured it into the mold and it’ll be an ugly brown tomorrow 😅 you win some, you lose some I guess lol

@MrsSoapAndClay 3 года назад

It’ll still smell good and get you clean!
