Making Soap That Looks Like Marble | MO River Soap
Hi everyone! I'm Holly! In this video, I'm making a soap that looks so much like marble! I love it!
Our next release date is still in limbo. I've been making so many fun new products! I have 3 curing racks full of soap! Right now I am working on getting bath bombs made. Last week, I lost three days of work due to the extreme cold. Our power company asked everyone to conserve energy and that meant no space heaters, etc.. Well, the soap studio 48 degrees without space heaters. It was COLD! This next week I am going to make more bath bombs and then move on to scrubs. I am going to try to get wax melts made this week also. Anyway, I have a lot of work to get accomplished still before I’m ready to release (a bit overwhelmingly so). I have been filming a lot and that does take away from the time of release preparation. If you can hang in there with me, it will all be worth it!

(This is not the recipe used in the video but is one that I love. Our regular line of soaps do not contain palm oil. If you you want a palm free recipe, play around with adding more butters and/or olive oil.)
30% Lye Concentration
6% Super Fat
40% Olive Oil
20% Coconut Oil
10% Palm Oil (I look for Palm that is certified by Palm Done Right)
10% Rice Bran Oil
10% Castor Oil
10% Cocoa Butter
1tsp ppo* Sodium Lactate
*Per Pound of Oil
I soap at room temperature - which means the oils and the lye solution are in the 65-75 degree range.

I LOVE HOLLY. I wish you had a recipe book. I'm such a fan and you're such a great teacher that I'd pay whatever. Only a few soapers I say this to.❤️ You're one of the 3.

Thank you! I appreciate it. I do share a recipe in the description box. I have shared my salt soap recipe, bath bomb recipe, and sugar scrub recipe too in various videos.😄 The recipe for my regular line of soaps is attached to the business itself and I do not have the rights to share it.

I saw a face, too. Looks like a cat. I'm glad you said it. I thought I was delirious. Great marble technique, though. I've seen other marble soaps that were a lot more complicated to produce but not necessarily better. I wish I could keep my batter this fluid.
I love the marbled look. A book with your favorite recipes would be great. I need to start working again, as I miss it so much!

Plus, on the next loaf (about 15 mins), a beautiful Venetian mask appears! This is such an elegant soap. I wish I loved anise, but am in the "other" group.... ;)
