Aww this is a lovely comment x

Those seashells are perfectly done. They look real!!!

Wow. So beautiful. Amazing job!

Love watching you work. Beautiful bars

In my top 3 of your best soaps 😍

That is such a cool design. Love it 🌊

This one is amazingly spot on in perfection! HOW on earth you get the shells for the top to look identical to the ones we can collect off the beach,.... I hope one day I'll understand! LOL!!! BUT, yes, the colors, the swirls, the sky & clouds, all spot on! Massive kudos. Thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you so much. I look forward to making this one every year 🥰

Gorgeous!

I think you should include measuring the liquid oils, and butters in these videos. I enjoyed watching you do that in one of your other day

I feel an order coming on. 😌

Yes I will film it next time I make them for sure :)

Oh, Julie! That came out so beautifully! Lovely! Are your shells soap dough or poured CP? They look so authentic! My attempts with that mold and soap dough are less than realistic.

This is absolutely gorgeous Julie! Question, does the vanilla powder cause discoloration in the soap? I may have to get some because I love the speckled effect!

No it doesn’t discolor. I love using it! It gives soap such a nice natural speckled look 😍

Do you put your oils in with the heat transfer or after the melt? Love your videos!!!

I put them all in together :)

hi! what happens if your lye cools down before fully melting your hard oils and butters? how would you go about melting the rest ???

@OpheliasSoapery

If your using the heat transfer method don’t let it cool at all. As soon as the lye is dissolved add it to your bucket. If it does cool down before adding it I suggest just soaping the old fashioned way and melt your oils and soap at room temperature. Once this past winter my oils were so cold my lye water wasn’t melting them so I put it all in a stainless steel pot and warmed it very slowly to about 90° and they melted the rest of the way.

I just tried the heat transfer method for the first time with a few restock batches and I don’t know if I’m just not doing it right or if it’s my recipe??? It speeds up the soap batter so much!! What’s your super fat at? I really would love this to work for me. So much faster and so much less clean up!

Can you send me your recipe I will see if I can figure out the problem :) Some recipes are best to use room temperature soaping :( If you don’t want to post it here you can email it to me at osoapery@gmail.com
