Thank you so much and I pray everyone who uses the kit is blessed in the craft of soap making!! Have a wonderful week!

Love your hair!!! It complements your face. I have tried the 50/50 blend twice in the last week. I was nervous that I was going to mess up…I was confused at first but I watched all of your videos about it over and over again. Thanks for sharing and explaining things in details

Thank you for this video!! I bought the kit a few months ago and I wish I found this video before I made my first cold process soap. You’ve explained in more detail than the directions in the kit. You are very thoughtful and generous with sharing your soap making passion!! Thanks again !!! 💕

First - your hair looks fantastic!!! I love the color.👍It looks wonderful on you. Second, I would love an overhead camera to get a bird's eye view of the process. It would be easier to see trace in the container. Third, I love the background and set design. You are a terrific teacher and the new format is A Plus!!! Thank you for sharing like you do.

Ms. Joanna, I have only one thing to say, "Hobby Lobby Here I come."🛍🥰💞💖🛍🥰 This is just what I needed to see. I'll use the kit for the first three times. THEN....I'll try measuring my own ingredients.

You are a delight to watch! I have already made two loaves and love them. 🎉So thank you so much! 🫶🏻I was wondering how to calculate the percent of FO we are using? I am new and I’m trying to learn more than just following the directions. I’d like to actually understand why 1oz in this batch if that makes sense? Maybe sometimes scent may need a little more or less dependent on its strength. Thank you for your passion for your craft. It shines through. 🥰

@TheSoapGal

5 ай бұрын

Great question! We use the skin safe percentage FO load as marked by whatever essential oil or fragrance you are using. For example, makesy has this listed on their website under more information. It's listed as a % of the total formula. Once you know your total formula amounts for oils, water, and lye you can calculate how much of your specific fragrance. Does that make sense?

Looks like great fun!!! But also your hair looks amazing!!!!

New subscriber! 🎉 I’ve been binging on your videos. I think this is a nice kit but I wish to start without palm. How can I have small batches with your older recipes? Do you have videos for beginners?

Hi there! I do have a variety of soap making videos on my soap making playlist here. Most of my videos are larger scale so I apologize that I don't have a super beginner recipe other than this makesy recipe. kzread.info/head/PL8qo6ELMimtfd4Rvs0QZOVtLrNbsThJuh

First, I love your passion for teaching others to formulate soap. I pray that the Most High God continues to advance your business and gives you supernatural favor! I enjoy cold-process soap making and love the simplicity of the 50/50 lye water solution and the trinity oil blend. I'm ready to customize with skin-nourishing additives. I noticed in the video clip that you added French clay to the water; I would like to add Brazilian yellow clay, but instead of water, I'm using aloe vera juice. I also wanted to add chamomile and oat powder. Should I add a trace, or should I add it to my melted trinity oil blend?

@TheSoapGal

8 ай бұрын

You can add it all additives and additional liquid to the oils mix then add lye solution, mix to light trace, then fragrance mix and air in any exfoliate you don’t want to chop that up. Hope that helps!!

You are so awesome 👍🏽🩷

You are so sweet! Thank you for the kind words and encouragement.

One time I messed up my measuring (I added too much of one of my oils), so I adjusted everything to make a double batch. After bringing it to trace I divided it back into single batches before adding mica and scents. LOL 🤦🏼‍♀️

Great Video! Could I use this exact recipe, but with 2lb of the Trinity Blend instead? Here’s the ingredient list: - 2lb Trinity Blend - 1.5lb 50/50 Lye Solution - .33oz Essential/Fragrance Oil - 0.2oz Mica Would this work?

This kit is at hobby lobby exclusively but Makesy does offer a more comprehensive kit available on their website here: makesy.com/products/cold-process-soap-starter-kit?variant=42745113280666

Could you use this kit to do hot process soap?

Hi Joanna. I see your kit has palm oil. But your soaps that you sell dont. Your websote ev ern says nonpalm oilninbyour soaps. Why ?

@TheSoapGal

3 ай бұрын

My team voted on the ingredients for the bubble factory soaps. It was their choice for palm oil free! Sustainable palm oil is an excellent moisturizing oil with great lather properties.

Why would the kit not come with the correct amout of lye solution? Also the lye bottles don't state ounces, just 0.9 lbs/0.4 kg. As you demonstrated... this could cause big mistakes in the recipe!!!

We agree and that is part of the reason why I did this video. Makesy is aware of the feedback so hopefully they are working on it.

Makes is such a rip off…..you can sources lower cost at your local grocery store, dollar store, and amazon …..don’t give your money to these people.
