    Hi Everyone, I hope you like the video. I had so much fun making it. I've tried to give as much detail and as many tips as possible, but if you have any questions then please just ask in the comments and I'll get back to you. Happy soaping :-)

      I would like to know what program or app do you use to design your soaps? Also, does the bottle spatula have a name and where did u get yours? You have an amazing talent. Thank you for taking the time to explain the steps and working the math out with a visual.

      @@Twylyght1 Hi, Quite often I just draw my soap on a piece of paper, but for the video I used my computer as it would be clearer. I just drew that soap out in pdf annotator, so it's just like a pen and paper, but on screen. The bottle spatula does indeed have a name, it's called a 'mini supoon' and comes from a company called Dreamfarm, they have some brilliant kitchen items :-)

    SOAP MATHS IS MY FAVORITE PART OF THIS VIDEO!!!!!
    This is SOOO practical!
    One of my favorite art pieces of all-time is "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".
    I've only been soaping for a short time and am completely astounded at soap magicians like you who can translate an idea into solid soap.
    Truly inspiring!
    Thank you so much for all you do in encouraging other soapers like me to escape their comfort zones.
    Blessings from Texas!

    Your an amazing teacher. I've been watching a lot of soap making videos, in hopes of getting a better understanding of how I need to break down the volume of oils and lye. I've used the melt and pour, and it went well, but I'd really like to try the cold process method. It's seemed a bit scary at first. You make it seem alot more achievable. Thank you so much. I have to say you have an exceptional talent for making the soap do what you want. I love the waves, and the one with the cat. Also the Edvard Munch?( I think that was his name.) That soap was pure art. So well done. I sure hope we'll see more of your soap on here ♥️♥️. You can bet I hit the subscribe and notification button for sure. And I'm sharing you with everyone.😉 You are awesome lady! PS : The Ghost swirl was beautiful too!!😊

    • @IDreamInSoap
      @IDreamInSoap  4 роки тому

      Hi, thanks for your comment. Actually though although Teri named the technique and made it popular she didn't invent it. There were a number of people already doing it, they just hadn't called it anything, several from Japan. For example with this video ua-cam.com/video/K0XyhzI4LQM/v-deo.html. Please don't feel I have anything against Teri, I don't I love her work and think she is brilliant and as you will have seen I referenced to her in my video. She certainly did bring it to the attention of many, made an excellent video and before that taught the technique to the soap challenge club, but the technique was around before she did this. I'm no way implying that she copied anyone as she came across the technique by accident through being impatient whilst doing a layer pour and pouring too early, so she did find out about it by her own trial and error, but others were already doing it. Best wishes, I hope you don't take this as a negative as it is not intended that way. I hope you and your family are staying safe and well.

      Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I do find the regulations tricky and sometimes it's like a little puzzle to work out what you can do. Not all of my soaps are inside the regulations, just because I may have a different colour choice than my assessments allow (typically the ones I do for the soap challenges) but those I only make 'for fun' and give to friends and family.

      Hi there, I'm more than happy to try to help you out. Is it that you haven't ever made soap before, or have you made it but want to be able to do more fancy designs etc. If you have never made soap, it may be a bit tricky to go over it all in comments. Anyway, let me know, so I can try to help you if I can. Sorry to hear about your husband, such awful news to receive, sending you love and best wishes.

      @@IDreamInSoap I have made a couple of batches of cold process soap but just with olive oil and cocoa butter and of course lye. I didn't color it or anything like that. Just simple and it did turn out good. But its all gone now. Its been awhile ago. But even after they cured about 3 weeks almost they still seemed softer than they should've been. I dont really understand the measurements of the oils. And whats the best ones to use. And how to measure the lye solution for the other oils batch. If you don't have time for this it's totally fine. I completely understand. And thank you so much for trying to help me.

    Lisa, wow, another incredible video with such detailed directions! Well done!
    I have to try this as now I will have more time. Due to CoVid, our festival planned in May has been cancelled/post-poned and my 1000 soap bars for that festival are on hold. At last count, I had 624, expecting this weekend to crank out another 100-150. But, people at work are buying the soaps as hand washing with soap aids in rupturing the fat capsule of Co-Vid and killing it.
    One thing I have learned and thank you, is I like how you wait to add your fragrances to your split batters. I have started to do that and find that it helps in my multi-pour color in preventing thickening of the batter.
    Take care and thanks again Lisa!

      Hi Alpa, I've never maid taco soap (pretty sure) so I don't have a video for it. Unfortunately in the UK, where I live it is illegal to make cosmetics that look like food (it's the same in all of Europe) as we have the food imitation act. So I don't make soap that resembles food. We can include certain elements as long as it's clear the soap isn't trying to imitate a piece of food, so for example I have done a soap with an orange embed, this is OK as the whole soap is not trying to just look like an orange, but things like cupcakes, doughnuts, taco soaps etc wouldn't be allowed

    • @IDreamInSoap

      Hey Terri. The peaks are formed by leaving gaps in the next layer as you pour it. The soap you pour in pushes the soap that's already there and if you leave a gap it can be pushed up before you cover it with soap

    Hi, I was so excited to try making your wave soap but everything went wrong :0(. My batter either stayed fluid or it seized and went from emulsion to thick trace. I couldn't figure out what went wrong. Then it hit me. My bucket of butters that I forgot to melt was sitting on the other side of the room! I am sooo disappointed. This is the first soap I have made in a very long time. I guess being a stickler for the details did not work in my favor. Now I have to buy another 'beach' scent. I'm not giving up. I will admit watching you do the math made perfect sense until I tried to apply it to my batch. I couldn't figure it out & that's what made me forget the butters. I think I will cleanse my palette & do M&P tomorrow!

    I love your talent and skill in making soap. You definitely have a creative spirit. One question often soap makers reference recipes using "weight of oil". My recipe has 32 ounces of oil, but the entire recipe adds another pound of water and lye. So its total weight is 48 oz. or 3 lbs. So when you say to add color of 1 teaspoon per pound of oil do I use the 2 # oil weight or the 3 # total weight?

    • @IDreamInSoap
      @IDreamInSoap  3 роки тому

      Hi Sue. I always work with just the oil weight. This is for fragrance and colour, you should ignore the water as most of that is lost during the cure, so you want to consider what you will be left with, especially for things that have a safe usage rate like fragrance oils

    • @IDreamInSoap
      @IDreamInSoap  4 роки тому

      Hey, thanks for popping over. I love Tiggy, isn't she great. In the UK we have to get all of our soaps tested before we can sell them. We submit a base recipe which has everything in we use for every soap in the exact proportions, cannot change the ratios. Then we have variations on our base, these are just things we can add to the base. Typically for a variation, we can have 5 extra items, so that would be your fragrance oil. any colours, botanicals etc. That for me is where the 4 colours come from, as that's all I have left for my 5 additions after my FO. Once those are set and passed as assessed, you cannot change them at all, so even if you wanted to swap 1 single colour, you would have to get a new assessment done and pay for it. You won't see Tiggy working to such tight restrictions as she was already assessed before these tight regulations came in she has more flexibility and works to a more flexible set of rules (lucky thing), so please don't think she' s doing anything wrong, she does have different rules to work to and does genuinely seem to do so. Best wishes, I hope you and your family are staying safe and well. Lisa

      Ahh, I thought you meant that you CAN'T use more than 4 colours which is where I became confused - I'm the cosmetic safety assessment advisor for Naturally Balmy - we use Scott Grainger for our customer's assessments - with us, the basic allowance is up to 10 ingredients for the base recipe and 5 additional ingredients per variant - we do allow more than the 5 ingredients which is why I became confused - it costs a little more, but it's definitely an option if you wanted to add more - I'm super excited to have another soap maker to watch - I'm hoping to start making my own videos soon too!

      Hi, I'm based in the UK, so any soap that we want to sell has to have a cosmetic safety certificate. We are restricted with the amount of colours, fragrance and fragrance types, so typically will only be allowed 4 colours in a soap and 1 fragrance, if we want to add anything else, like a botanical etc it would take the place of one of your colours. Then once you have your choices made you have to stick to then exactly, so you can't change a colour or an amount at all, if you do, you have to pay for a new assessment and get that variant approved as well.
