I like how you gradually reveal more and more of yourself. I feel like by the end of February we could get a nostril, and maybe by the summer equinox we'll get an eyebrow reveal 😂 And of course you have a cat! Can I ask what their name is and if you could share some cute pictures/videos of them?
Lol! I’m just a giant meat puzzle where you have to put the pieces together in your mind 😂 His name is Orion, after the constellation! I’ll have to post some pics on my community tab sometime 🐱
This actually made me feel so much better. I’ve done kits like this and it didn’t work. I thought that I must be stupid because it’s designed for kids and as an adult I failed. Thank you so much for showing me the truth! I’m gonna try again, but get all the ingredients myself 💜 Keep the videos coming. Oh, and HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎊
It's funny, because I remember doing a melt-and-pour soap kit in the early 2000s and I remember it working perfectly fine and the fragrances all smelled good. Standards have really gone downhill in the past twenty years!
@@PurpleHam I think Royalty Soaps actually did a craft melt and pour soap kit from 2000 and it turned out okay. Soap ages pretty well, but fragrances and some cheaper colours probably wouldn’t. I’d be curious to try one!
This is so funny, hilarious and a little bit sad because it doesn't even foam but these kinds of videos are needed because there were a lot of scams like this 😢😂. So thanks for sharing with us excited to see the cheapest version. ❤
If it's any consolation I spent an Amazon gift voucher on candle wax and wooden wicks that won't burn. I even got new wicks and I could hold my phone centimetres above the tiny little flame for several photos.
Wow, that’s terrible! I’ve never used wooden wicks before. Are they finicky? I feel like they would burn really tall so it’s a surprise yours barely even did anything. What a ripoff!
@SoapUniverse I still haven't made the wooden wicks work lol. The whole experience didn't give me any confidence but when I do venture into making candles again I'll be careful to source my materials from a reputable supplier.
@ I think I’ve seen those wicks at Michaels, but they’re so expensive. Wick science is still a bit confusing to me so I think I’ll have to do some more research before buying my next batch!
Canada is definitely strict about that sort of thing, which is what surprised me the most! Montoy has also been fraught with recalls in the past, so I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't following the rules.
That's actually a really good point! I'm guessing they probably thought that since they already lied 9 times on the cover alone, following federal label laws was beneath them 🙄

Same! I was surprised to see a body attached to the hands 😂

@ Oh, I wonder if there are any of those kits left 🤔 they are probably out of date now 😔

Those of us who watch NerdECrafter know that “includes everything you need” is almost always a lie. 😂
I had to refrain from saying that in her voice when I was recording 😂
😂 this was hilarious! Thank you!! And yes to your BB idea!!
Also vanilla FO discolors most cosmetics and soaps. Ranging f4om tan to nearly blcak. Bc it contains wait for it vanillan.

I agree! Especially for something that's sold in a pretty big Canadian retailer. I'm hoping no one else falls for their lies 🙄
Well, guess I'm subbing
oh my god the lie counter HAHHAHAHA

Love your videos. Also was that a cornstarch pouch listed on the box that wasn’t included or was I so blinded by rage at this kit that I missed it?
Lol you were blinded by rage but don't worry, I was too! 😂
the child on the packaging looks just as depressed as the kit itself turned out to be
That was my thought, too 😂
Yes. yes. yes. Please make cheap bath bombs! (none that sink sink like my dreams though😉) Thanks for the video.
Sounds good! I'll have to shut myself in my lab and start experimenting pronto 😂
I tried casting “Ethylhexyl Palmitate” but I’m still fat af! I guess you are a wizard Chris! 😢
It's "Ethylhexyl P"aah"lmitate", you need to make the "aah" really nice and long! It takes years of practice 😂
Ooh new the channel here, theres a huge glut of shitty bathbomb making kits flooding the market so you have plenty of future content lol
Will sub ❤
Yay! I’m going to try and keep my eyes peeled for soap and candle ones as well 😃
Powdery textures AND vanilla “essential oil”? Welcome to my nightmare. Thank you for your service!
I literally would've preferred they give me vanilla extract, because at least then it would actually smell like vanilla!
How sad! I thought that Canada had strict regulations about labeling.
Canada is definitely strict about that sort of thing, which is what surprised me the most! Montoy has also been fraught with recalls in the past, so I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't following the rules.
And yes, please make a DIY bath bomb! 🛁 🧼 🫧 👋 😊
It'll be a fun challenge! I wonder if there's a cheap way I can emulsify the oils and water without using Polysorbate 80? 🤔
Crazy that they decided to include neons which are not Health Canada approved in any bath bomb or cosmetic. 🫠 OMG that mess in your tub! 💀
That's actually a really good point! I'm guessing they probably thought that since they already lied 9 times on the cover alone, following federal label laws was beneath them 🙄
