Depending on the M&P base you are using, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. When doing layers or embeds, I do not suggest using a fridge or freezer to cool your soap as the layers can separate!

Nice video, thank you. What dimension is your mold container? How much of the block of melt and pour soap did you use? From your other video it seemed to be a 2 pound block that you started with. Have you or anyone out there used turmeric or beet powder to color the soap? Thank you!

@sarahssoapsca

Hi Julie, thank you! This was quite some time ago so I no longer have that mold to measure, but there are many soap calculators out there to help you figure out how much soap you can fit in your molds. I know that Bramble Berry has a great one! As far as turmeric and beet root go, beet root unfortunately turns a very unappealing brown colour in soaps from my experience. Turmeric is a beautiful golden colour, however less is definitely more as it is known to stain. Hope that helps!

+Jane Farrer, it all depends on the cost of the raw materials you are using. Add up the cost of the entire loaf you have made (cost of base, fragrance, colorants, loofah etc.) and then divide by the number of bars you get out of the loaf. That should give you a rough number of the cost of each bar!

Why don't u get silicone disk molds rather having them squared?

@sarahssoapsca

7 жыл бұрын

Great question. My answer would simply be personal preference. I find it faster for myself to make one large loaf mold and then slice in to smaller pieces. I also do not mind having the square shapes - this way there are also parts of the soap that do not come in contact with the luffa, in case people do not want to exfoliate at that time.
