Why you NEED to start making your own M&P bases | Recipe Day | Day 46/365

#meltandpourbase #recipeday #46
Today we are making a melt and pour base from scratch! This is an easy peasy recipe with easy to source ingredients and a great end product suitable for all skin types. It's a good way to dip your toe into the melt and pour bases world, which is necessary right now, given the increase in prices for pre-made bases these days.

Soap & Clay is a family owned business operating in Washington State, but started out online thanks to Mrs. Soap & Clay's kickass brother and his amazing web design skills. The business was started as a tribute to Mrs. Soap & Clay's grandmother, the OG maker in the family that cultivated everyone's love for the DIY life. The studio/retail shop opened in 2017 on 6th Ave in Tacoma, and immediately began teaching soap, bath bomb, lotion, and scrub classes to the makers and maker enthusiasts of the PNW. In 2019, the pottery studio opened as well, making the soap shop a busy place full of artistic energy every minute of the day.
Mrs. Soap & Clay has been featured on Business Spotlight, New Day Northwest, and was awarded a coveted place on the South Sound's 40 under 40 list in 2019, an award given to the most influential business people under the age of 40 each year. She cried when she walked up to the podium to accept the award. A lot.
Drawing from her chemistry background and her maker spirit, Mrs. Soap & Clay infuses her favorite things into her soapy designs and creates products that are fun to see, use, and learn to make. Stick around for this ride - she'll take you on a great one.

I admire your chemistry background, artistry, and passion. I'm so grateful to have found your channel. I know you are likely very busy but if you happen to have a spare moment I have two questions that I would reallyyyy appreciate answers to :). 1. What did you pour into your mixture at 8:27? It was right after you added the powder additives, and before you started mixing using your hand mixer. 2. What kind of glycerin do you use? Is it vegetable glycerin? Thank you again for all your videos. I didn't know I could make my own melt and pour base until I heard about it from you. You truly do have a wonderful channel and impressive talent. God bless you!

If you are trying to lower your blood sugar, try eating blueberries and sour cherries as they contain anthrocyanins that helps lower your blood sugar. Apple cider vinegar, about a teaspoon in a large glass of water is also a good cleanser and is good for your stomach. Lemon juice in a warm glass of water also cleanses and is an age old remedy.

    So, on the question of “Can any CP recipe be made into a glycerin m&p base,” can it, as long as you’ve got a boatload of castor oil in said recipe? My basic CP recipe is lard, coconut, olive, cocoa, canola, a little something like hemp or avocado oil, plus castor oil. I see most M&P bases also add beeswax. So if I pump up the castor %, add some beeswax and hot process it, I just need to add a 75-100% glycerin at the end to make it M&P?

    Apologies if I missed this, but does a MP base like this need to cure at any point (either before or after making the final product)? I've only done a few MP things and they have all been with store-bought bases.

    Everything with glycerin has the ability to sweat. The glycerin, being a humectant, pulls moisture from the air.

    So... I've watched way too many videos on making melt and pour bases. But none of them explains certain ingredients. And most of them are for clear soap. Only thing I see you add is glycerin and bees wax. In others they use stearic acid instead. But I was under the understanding you needed propylene glycol to make it remeltable. Others add sorbitol as well. Can we please have a video that just explains all this. Because I can't seem to find reliable info out there and there is only 1 m&p basemakers groups and they aren't even in agreement. Lol

    Help me understand...so melt n pour is basically glycerin soap? As a child I remember glycerin soap being clear, and yes, very drying. Or is clear glycerin soap a whole different thing? Also, when would someone not accustomed to melt n pour use it? Would it be a stand alone soap? Or more for within soap designs, etc? I promise I'm not melt n pour prejudice. I started with CP, but want to learn and understand ALL the processes!

That way after the saponification it will feel very soft to your skin did I explained it right I hope that makes sense.
