I'm new to your channel and obsessed. You have fantastically well done videos. I just reopened my bath business after a 9 month closure to heal from cancer and strokes. It's been a different start with the cost so high in recent months but I'm keeping at it. I'm doing my first ever festival on May 14 so I'm trying to build inventory. It's exciting. Thank you for your videos.
You’ve found the right lady for inspiration. Ellen is the best ! I’ve learned so much from this talented lady. It’s great you are getting back into your business and I wish you all the best. Prayers for your success and for good health.
Do you know Younique is a mlm (multi level marketing) pyramid scheme? Ie a scam. Maybe don't advertise a scam as a way to "empower women" on your page.
I love Holly's video and I love yours and I agree piping isn't my strong suit either, after the 3rd time of wasting product, I got an ice cream scooper and filled my jars - didn't lose as much product that way. Thank you for sharing! :) 💛
I love you! The Stephensons will be my go-to until I get the courage to make my own from scratch. Yes I use the same wooden spatulas for my regular sugar scrub too! (Whoo-Hoo) Anyway, thanks so much for the video I picked up a few tips.
Hi from Florida! I watched Holly’s video as well, this lemon bar sounds like heaven! I just went to buy a jar…. Your on vacation till 5/4! I will wait patiently! Thank you for sharing!
Your videos are so informative and educational. Thank you for sharing your work to us all. You also mentioned briefly that you make candles can't wait for you to do a video on that.
I love the consistency absolutely beautiful ! Congratulations Ellen! Iam your follower from Germany and I love your channel. Thanks so much for sharing your talent and recipes with us. You are such a good hearted person and may God bless you abundantly. I have learnt alot from you.
I ❤️ whipped soap foaming sugar scrub and body butter 🧈 🤤 I have a trial size of the lemon 🍋 bar fragrance so I might give this a go with the pretty lemon 🍋 swirls 🍭🍭🍭 I think you had a hard time at first with the star tip because you didn't cut the end of the press n seal first instead you pulled it through then cut it. Next time try cutting the end off first then put the loaded press n seal into the piping bag ;)
I made this but I ended up using the hobby lobby brand whipped soap base. I guess I blended to much? It turned out marshmallow fluff consistency. Today it’s more firm though. I will try again and ty for the info. This video helped a lot.
Hi Ellen, I also watched Hollys video, enticed me to give it a try after our overseas long trip. Product arrived today. So will be making for summer Christmas time gifts. Those little scoops are great must look for those too I loved your excitement. Thank you
Hi Ellen. I love all your videos. Your instruction and information is so very helpful. Can you please tell the measurements for your 8 oz jar labels. Thank you so much 💞
Luv your videos. I'm very interested in creating skin care products as I'm an Advanced Licensed Skin Care Specialist and Instructor. Instead of selling other creator's skin care products, I want to make my own like you do so thanks for all your videos!!!
I saw this recipe with someone else and didn't trust it much. Now that you have it in your channel will make it for sure lol. I have all the ingredients. Thanks a lot!!!!
Ellen, I really enjoy watching your videos! You are so professional and mature! Also, you have a good sense of humor!( I dislike cute-sy videos). Also, you are very thorough in listing all the products and sources. I am going to try a couple recipes asap. Keep up the great work
Hands down that's the absolute best base! I ordered from 3 places this is my favorite, I honestly feel that I'm wasting product from the other 2 sources because I won't sell it,no matter what I've done to the other even just whipping it at minimal time with nothing in it still doesn't hold up!
I'm very happy to have found you and your channel. I woke up several days ago remembering the dream I had where I was making soap with my family. I had never thought of making soap and knew nothing about it but the process looks easy when you do it and I'm sure I can handle it. I will borrow some ideas moving forward but I'm very close to start ordering supplies. I have a basement that I can use for this but I'm concerned about the amount of cool, damp air downstairs. Do I need to know anything about the room environment?
I make whipped sugar scrubs and I love love them! You will love it in the shower😊 I use fragrances oils that don’t do well in CP soaps in my scrubs. The last one I made was Coconut Soleil which seizes in soap but oh man is it nice in scrubs and lotions. Smells like tanning lotion on the beach☺️
Hey Ellen! My recipe is pretty much the same and everyone loves it. I do use a little bit of Poly 80 in mine. I've been wanting to try another lemon FO because who doesn't love that amazingly fresh, clean scent of lemon? Yummy! Great video...Big ((Hugs)) from Texas!
I saw a video making lemon srub. I made this recipe last Saturday. I added fresh lemons sugar, and greted lemon in with the sugar. I added a little pound cake extract. and vanilla extract. my body felt like butter. so soothe and sliky and lemonney. all night long when I went to bed..
I really love watching your videos and plan on making my own sugar scrubs in the near future - do you know if an essential oil can be used instead of fragrance? Would that change the recipe much? Thanks in advance. Michelle
Hi Ellen, thank you for this recipe, I made it today, my hands have never felt so soft and smooth!! Quick question - what is the shelf life on these, does the sugar dissolve? Thank you again, I had lots of fun with my stand mixer!!!
I love your videos! I want to make this one. I really want to get into making body scrubs/lotions. Is the market too flooded now to even start, or should I just piddle at it and make for myself, family and friends and forget about making it a dream??? It's January 2025.
I refer to soap and clay for my recipe, she uses her own soap paste as a replacement for the Stephenson's base and it's magnificent! I also use that FO for my most recent batch of sugar scrub, I call it lemon meringue, that and cotton candy are my best sellers 💕 I for sure recommend checking out that recipe though because it turns out the same but way cheaper! Especially if you already make your own soap paste for liquid soaps or anything else.
I’m new & your tutorial is the first thing I’m going to attempt 💗 I’m a bit confused as to the base though. I’m the video your base is labeled as Crystal Soap Base M&P but in the discription it calls for Foaming Bath Butter. On my supplier website, they’re 2 different things. Please help to confirm. 💗
Yes, they are different. If your soap base is a bit soft, like you can poke your finger on top, then it will work. If it's super hard, then it's traditional MP and won't work.
Good evening from Greece, I love your videos,you help me very much,so, if you don't add sugar you use it as a whipped bath soap,is that right? Or it's another recipe?
Thanks for sharing how long to whip the soap base. I watched a couple of videos on UA-cam and got frustrated making my own and it wasn’t coming together and ended up added more oil then needed! Nothing was waisted though! 😂 would you say the wisk attachment is better for more of a whipped consistency then a regular blender?
@@EllenRuthSoap okay! I just use my regular hand held and I didn’t get the double in size cool whip looking effect. Just wondered if I need a wisk attachment for this instead. I don’t have any issues using it to make body butter though.
First let me say I absolutely love your channel! Your receipts are great and you give really good instructions. Now, my question- what other oil can I use in place of the avocado oil? I have on hand sweet almond, reg almond, jojoba, grape seed, evoo and fractionated coconut oil. So you see why I really don’t want to run buy more. Lol

these came out so nicely!!!
I use Holly’s recipe, too, and everyone LOVES it!
I did my first batch last weekend and the wife loves it. Love watching Holly and your work. Thank you
Holly is one of my absolute favs!
Me too😊
The scrubs look like something to eat. Nice and fluffy
I love Holly's video and I love yours and I agree piping isn't my strong suit either, after the 3rd time of wasting product, I got an ice cream scooper and filled my jars - didn't lose as much product that way. Thank you for sharing! :) 💛
Yes, without shadow of a doubt, I loved that one. 🥰🇬🇧
Love yellow and white. Pretty🎉
I love you! The Stephensons will be my go-to until I get the courage to make my own from scratch. Yes I use the same wooden spatulas for my regular sugar scrub too! (Whoo-Hoo) Anyway, thanks so much for the video I picked up a few tips.

Oh thank you! 🥰
Your videos are so informative and educational. Thank you for sharing your work to us all. You also mentioned briefly that you make candles can't wait for you to do a video on that.
I did this for Christmas gifts a couples of years ago. I got mine from Candle Science and the recipe came from BeScented. I loved it.
Absolutely beautiful I love the consistency I can’t wait to purchase a jar. Thanks 😊
They’re so fun, and good to use❣️
Thank you for sharing I love watching your videos
I like the look of the easier piping tip. It looks great. I love the lemon bar scent from BB. It always makes my mouth water!
It's such a great fragrance 🍋

Hey Ellen! Always thankful for your information!

Hi Ellen! Would this recipe work with omitting the sugar?
I haven’t tried it, but I think you could ….?
Beautiful job, Ellen! ❤❤❤❤
I have to give this a try. Very beautiful!
So pretty!
Hello Ellen, you did fantastic loved this video learned a lot. Kathy from Cali😎
Thank you 🥰

It's such a fun project! Have fun making💕
Hi Ellen. I love all your videos. Your instruction and information is so very helpful. Can you please tell the measurements for your 8 oz jar labels. Thank you so much 💞
They're 1.5x5"
Another great video Ellen.I use this base as well love the colour yellow x
I do Shea body butters. This is what i want to learn next.

Thank you so much!
Beautiful!!!!
A scooper would be a great touch to add to this so water won’t get in and melt it?
Hands down that's the absolute best base! I ordered from 3 places this is my favorite, I honestly feel that I'm wasting product from the other 2 sources because I won't sell it,no matter what I've done to the other even just whipping it at minimal time with nothing in it still doesn't hold up!
I've been so happy with this base!
looks awesome!

I invested in a large dehumidifyer for my basement, it helps a lot.
These look beautiful Ellen! 💛
🥰🍋
Thanks for your videos ☺️
Can i get how to make soap base
Coming soon😉
Love it ❤️ You make it look so easy. Gotta try this recipe.
I’m new to ur channel,I’m in process of starting my body scrub, and body butter business.Thank for your videos 👍
Welcome!!💕
Gorgeous job Ellen ❤️ 🍋
I make whipped sugar scrubs and I love love them! You will love it in the shower😊
I use fragrances oils that don’t do well in CP soaps in my scrubs. The last one I made was Coconut Soleil which seizes in soap but oh man is it nice in scrubs and lotions. Smells like tanning lotion on the beach☺️
I love using my "tricky" F.O's in projects like this🥰
@@EllenRuthSoap yes! It’s the best way to use those buggers😊
What a great recipe and tutorial - thank you! 🤗
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey Ellen! My recipe is pretty much the same and everyone loves it. I do use a little bit of Poly 80 in mine. I've been wanting to try another lemon FO because who doesn't love that amazingly fresh, clean scent of lemon? Yummy! Great video...Big ((Hugs)) from Texas!
You should give this F.O. A try, it’s fantastic❣️
You can put each color in a gallon baggie then put both of those into another baggie, cut off end, catching all 3 bags and voila
I'm surprised at how easy it was for you to cut the M&P soap, like it was coconut oil or shortening! The box it came in would also make a great mold.
It was a bit creamier than regular MP soap, very easy to work with.
I saw a video making lemon srub. I made this recipe last Saturday. I added fresh lemons sugar, and greted lemon in with the sugar. I added a little pound cake extract. and vanilla extract. my body felt like butter. so soothe and sliky and lemonney. all night long when I went to bed..
Your combo sounds wonderful❣️
Looks amazing, Ellen. You did great👍 🥰😊
Haha! I was thinking the piping bag was saying, “Gotta keep it together!!! Don’t bust a seam!!!” 😂😂😂 After that explanation that makes more sense now😅
Where do you get your shrink wrap for your jars?
Wholesale Supplies Plus has is where I get mine.
@@EllenRuthSoap Thanks 😊
I really love watching your videos and plan on making my own sugar scrubs in the near future - do you know if an essential oil can be used instead of fragrance? Would that change the recipe much? Thanks in advance. Michelle
Essential oils would be fantastic in this formula 👍
Hi Ellen, thank you for this recipe, I made it today, my hands have never felt so soft and smooth!! Quick question - what is the shelf life on these, does the sugar dissolve? Thank you again, I had lots of fun with my stand mixer!!!
I suggest using within a year of making
I want to use some of BB fall scents, do you think it would be okay? Like pumpkin spice.
I love your videos! I want to make this one. I really want to get into making body scrubs/lotions. Is the market too flooded now to even start, or should I just piddle at it and make for myself, family and friends and forget about making it a dream??? It's January 2025.
I suggest making some batches and perhaps try a local market and see how it goes. Then take it from there...
Love these! I use that base too. If you didn't add the sugar would that be a whipped soap?
Yes, it makes a nice basic whipped soap.
Hi Ellen! Question when measuring the preservative amount do you use the total weight of the recipe to calculate how much to use?
Yes, I add the total ingredients and figure my % off of that
Ellen can I use this recipe to add other items like charcoal or pumice? I love this base. what are your thoughts?
Yes, you can get pretty creative with additives. I always suggest doing a small test batch and see how you like the finish.
I love this! What other oils can I use in substitution of avocado oil? 💛
Any good liquid oil will do 😉
@@EllenRuthSoap thank you 💜

Yes! Soap & Clay, shares a lot of great recipes.
I want to use my own homemade soap to make this scrub too…. Is ‘Soap and Clay’ the name of the site I need to go to? Thx
Thank you …. I believe that’s what u mean. I make my own soap and want to save $😁
@@bobbijoREV3.10 it's another channel here on UA-cam. She also has a website for her products, but she gives out recipes freely.
Holly is awesome
Agreed❣️
So you use soap supplies to make your scrubs? I’m new and want to make some. I need to have the supples lol
Beautiful! Did you let it sit? or is it ready to use it immediately?
It's pretty much ready as soon as it's fully cooled👍
Thank you for your guidance, Ellen! Could you share the kind of home printer you use for your labels?
My printer is a basic cannon from walmart

Yes, they are different. If your soap base is a bit soft, like you can poke your finger on top, then it will work. If it's super hard, then it's traditional MP and won't work.
Can you use salts instead? (Himalayan, Dead Sea salt and or Epsom salt? Or would it be better to keep with the sugar for the recipe?
Ellen, where did you get your mixer 😍?
Amazon
I’m a month behind on questions, but have you put this out yet? I love lemon and yours looks so great!
Yes, it sold out quickly. I need to restock this.
@@EllenRuthSoap YES, you do little lady! 😁
I love this video. Where do you get the plastic to seal the jar from? I didn't see it on your Amazon store
I get my shrink bands from WSP
@@EllenRuthSoap thank you 😊
Good evening from Greece, I love your videos,you help me very much,so, if you don't add sugar you use it as a whipped bath soap,is that right? Or it's another recipe?
Yes, you can simply whip up the base and have a "whipped soap" without sugar..
I have whipped soap from WSP. Thinking might be the same
Thanks for sharing how long to whip the soap base. I watched a couple of videos on UA-cam and got frustrated making my own and it wasn’t coming together and ended up added more oil then needed! Nothing was waisted though! 😂 would you say the wisk attachment is better for more of a whipped consistency then a regular blender?
I use the regular blending paddle to loosen up the hard base, then I really like the whip for the rest of the mixing.
@@EllenRuthSoap okay! I just use my regular hand held and I didn’t get the double in size cool whip looking effect. Just wondered if I need a wisk attachment for this instead. I don’t have any issues using it to make body butter though.
