    I love hearing everyone's stories on how they ended up as a soap maker! For me it started almost 7 yrs ago when I was trying to find a sunscreen that I was allergic too and it lead me to someone making their own and then that lead me to soap queen and soaping 101 and royalty soaps and like you I diced into the whole process and watched every video I could 😅 and now half my living has been designated as my soaping area loll

    Omg! Soap Queen TV was my first introduction to bath bombs! I was looking to start making and selling bath bombs when I came across SQTV - now Bramble Berry. My bath bomb recipe was from her recipe and it was a great success. I did stop making them as well as butters and scrubs, but all my ingredients came from her and new aromatics(Canada?). Thanks for sharing and the inspiration - who knows, I may get back into it!

  • @ReddGal09
    @ReddGal09 14 днів тому

    I found this to be very informative and easy to follow. With this recipe, using the lye, once the bars are set and cut, can they be used right away or do they need to sit for a bit (and how long) for the it to be safe enough for the lye chemical not to bother/burn the skin?

  • @allergictothebs2692

    • @JerikaZimmerman
      @JerikaZimmerman  21 день тому +1

      Yep, I’ve tried melt and pour soap! It’s a lot of fun. Yeah, it’s best to be cautious when working with lye… if it helps, I was able to make a lot of soaps in my apartment when I first started ❤

  • @moonshadowessentialssoapsn5287
    @moonshadowessentialssoapsn5287 20 днів тому

    If u freeze ur water into ice cubes when u add lye to the ice it does not release ANY fumes at all. Not even a little. Try it, u will never have to worry about accidentally breathing that in and I don’t have to worry about airing the room either. I can’t inhale any fumes at all. Doing that is a game changer.

    • @JerikaZimmerman
      @JerikaZimmerman  21 день тому +1

      I usually go to the reviews of the fragrance oil to see from other soap makers if a fragrance oil “sticks” in soap for a long time. You can check out the Fragrance oils from bramble berry’s website - most have a lot of reviews. Bramble berry also has a handy calculator that will tell you how much fragrance oil to add to get a light, medium or strong-smelling product.
