Hi Ellen. I just want you to know how much my daughter and I absolutely love you, your channel and your soaps. I suffered a very bad accident 2 years ago and my 30-year-old daughter suffers severe social anxiety. My accident took me out of work, and I happened upon your channel. Not only are you so relaxing to watch, but over the last 2 years my daughter and I have started making soap and we love it. My daughter is crazy talented at bar making and I am very good at whips and scrubs. I am still in recovery and lost my job. My daughter and I recently started selling our soaps and are doing amazing. Our hearts thank you so much for all you have taught us and we watch you every day. You have given us much hope and inspired us in so many ways. Just know that when you make your videos you really have no idea whos life you may change. We bless you and love you.
Kathryn, thank you so much for your sweet story and kind words. This really touched my heart and made my day bright❣️ So glad you're enjoying the making process!
These are so beautiful, Ellen! I love the drizzle you added. The ingredients sound amazing. I have never tried coconut milk powder but now I want to. 😊
Wow! You are making so beautiful soaps and you know a lot. Can you please tell me how I can use vegetable glycerin to make cold procesd soap by using coconut and Olive oils. Thank you in advance.
Just beautiful, Ellen Ruth. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe and for the most excellent demo. You’re an gifted teacher and I love your persona! I DO have a question about the glitter you added to the soap at the end. What’s it called again, and where can I find some? Also, how much tusslah silk should I add to the lye solution, and at what point is it added? You’ve listed aloe Vera juice and distilled water. Is that 50/50%, (half of each)? Thank you, again! I feel like you’re a friend!
Thx, Ellen Ruth! I still haven’t taken the plunge and made CP soap. I think this may be the one I try first. I’m awaiting the FO, just wish it weren’t so expensive! Where did you get the mini bundt cake molds? They’re awesome! Thx, again! Love your videos!
So excited to try this! Love your videos!For the distilled water and aloe Vera- is that 19.3 g of each or total together and do you addthe ly to both of them mixed together?
I bought a salt bar once and loved it but it always had beads of water all over it, it was really odd cause it was CP not melt and pour, I got it from Holly at moriver soaps it was fine at first but then became really stinky so I chucked it out
Perfectly yummy! Is this recipe considered a exfoliating soap? I am having a rough time deciding which soap to get started on. Lolz. There are so many options and variations which I love so much! Your voice over was on point. Great job! Ty for sharing! 💕💕💕
I love all your videos, Ellen! Thanks so much for sharing :) Could you tell me the size of the scoop/amount of kaolin, colloidal, etc you put in your recipes? I'm not sure I put enough in mine. I love all these additives as well!

These are so beautiful, Ellen! I love the drizzle you added. The ingredients sound amazing. I have never tried coconut milk powder but now I want to. 😊
Thank you Holly❣️ They we’re fun to make 🍐
I absolutely love coconut milk powder in my soaps too 💞 it's creamier than goat's milk powder in my opinion 😃💞
Coconut cream is the best.
This is so pretty. I have to get over my fear of lye so I can make soap.
Hi from Florida! Candied Pear! Yummy! I love shades of green. I have quite a few, the green you are using is beautiful!
They are so beautiful! Ty Ellen
Absolutely love your videos and appreciate them them so much
The color reminds me of those little pear shaped squishy bath beads from the 90s. I loved those
🍐💕

Beautiful thanks to share.

It's hard to measure the silk because it's so light, I just add a pinch about the size of a small cotton ball or less. Yes I do 50/50 of aloe & water.
Thx, Ellen Ruth! I still haven’t taken the plunge and made CP soap. I think this may be the one I try first. I’m awaiting the FO, just wish it weren’t so expensive!
Where did you get the mini bundt cake molds? They’re awesome!
Thx, again! Love your videos!
Oh Lord !!!! they are so pretty 😍😍Love your videos Thank you !!!!
Thank you so much!🍐
Absolutely gorgeous 😍
Thank you!! 😊🍐
Thank you Ellen, another great video! Can this recipe be downsized? Thank you!
Yes, absolutely👍
Só beautiful Ellen ❤️
Thank you 🍐
Just love them !! Where did you purchase that heart mold? I love it!!
I got the heart mold from Aldi's several years ago.
These are absolutely lovely. How do you package and label these bars?
Thanks! I shrink wrap with round labels😉
So excited to try this! Love your videos!For the distilled water and aloe Vera- is that 19.3 g of each or total together and do you addthe ly to both of them mixed together?
That's the total volume of the liquids combined, mix them, then add the lye. Have fun soaping!
I bought a salt bar once and loved it but it always had beads of water all over it, it was really odd cause it was CP not melt and pour, I got it from Holly at moriver soaps it was fine at first but then became really stinky so I chucked it out
That's interesting? I've not had an issue with that personally..
Love these soaps ❤️ they look edible lol. You ever have issues with your soap bars sweating?
I haven't had an issue with sweating, but I do have a large dehumidifier in my soap area.
Hi, Ellen Ruth! You mention that you add cane sugar to the lye solution, but it’s not in the recipe. How much should we add? Thx so much!! Marita
You don't have to add it, it's just extra. For this recipe I add about 1 tbls or a tad more..
Can you use liquid coconut milk or only powder? If you can’t find coconut powder can you sub other milks? Thank you 😊
You could do the milk in oil method with liquid coconut milk 👍
Perfectly yummy! Is this recipe considered a exfoliating soap? I am having a rough time deciding which soap to get started on. Lolz. There are so many options and variations which I love so much! Your voice over was on point. Great job! Ty for sharing! 💕💕💕
It is gently exfoliating, and has a wonderful soft lather🍐
@@EllenRuthSoap perfect. I haven't tried salt soap yet. #excited
Hi Ellen,
Once you have made your soaps, do you let ALL of your soaps sit 6-8 weeks before you sell/ship to customers or only certain soaps you make?
I like to cure all my CP and HP soaps for at least 4 weeks or more before using or selling
Can you explain why? Is there a specific reason? Does it help with the way the soap performs when it’s used? Thank you for responding ❤️
I love all your videos, Ellen! Thanks so much for sharing :) Could you tell me the size of the scoop/amount of kaolin, colloidal, etc you put in your recipes? I'm not sure I put enough in mine. I love all these additives as well!
I’m using a 2 tbls scoop😉
@@EllenRuthSoap Thanks Ellen, have a great day :)
Hey Ellen, these are the cutest 😍. Question, for bath bombs why don't you use this melt and pour drizzle technique vs the cocoa butter drizzle?
Thanks 🍐 You totally could use MP on bath bombs, I just like how moisturizing the Cocoa butter is😉
Hi Ellen! Can I ask where you found your large pitcher you are using?
Awesome soap btw. I love this recipe.
I got the 5L poly pitcher from Amazon, there’s a link in the description box 😉
Either you tube has been hiding your posts from me or you haven't been doing many....either way I was happy to see this 🍐 💚
I post 2 times a week, you can hit the bell for notifications if you don’t want to miss a post❣️
@@EllenRuthSoap I have the bell clicked lol. That's qhats weird about it 😳
Is it possible to add the % off the oils/ butters?
not sure what you're asking??
Where is recipe
In the description box
Ellen you've now added 4 ad breaks to the videos. Seems a bit overboard for a monetary commission to a video that "shares" a recipe.
I'm not in control of the ads, UA-cam generates them... Sorry if it's an overload.
